General Notes: Husband - Jacob B. Way

---

He continued to live in Centre County, Pennsylvania, for several years after his marriage and then settled in Clearfield town, where he was engaged as freight agent for four and one-half years. He then moved to Girard Township and passed four years on a farm and from there came to a farm in Pike Township, where four more years were spent, following which he became freight and ticket agent for the Pennsylvania Railroad and also was postmaster until the time of his death. In 1895 Mr. Way started the book and stationery business which is continued at Curwensville by the firm of T. & R. K. Way.
Both he and his wife were members of the Methodist Episcopal church. He was a Republican in politics and fraternally was connected with the Masons and Odd Fellows.
