General Notes: Husband - William Emery


He was born in New Jersey and was reared in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. At the age of fifteen he was bound out to Colonel Covert, of Brady township, Butler County, with whom he learned the carpenter's and cabinet maker's trades, which business he afterwards followed at various places for a few years. He then settled on a farm on the line between Butler and Lawrence counties, where he owned 100 acres of land. In connection with farming, he also worked at his trade the greater part of his life. In 1838 he and his brother Joseph purchased 200 acres of land in Washington township, Butler County, on which he resided until within a few years of his death, when he sold his farm and made his home with his granddaughter, Mrs. Lizzie McCandless, of Clay township, Butler County.
He and his wife were the parents of fourteen children, seven of whom grew to maturity.
