General Notes: Husband - Simon P. Faulk

---

He was reared principally in Allegheny township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where he received his education in the rural schools. He learned the trade of tinning which he has followed in connection with farming. He owned a well-improved farm of one hundred and twenty acres of land and dealt very successfully in sheep for many years. In 1864 he was appointed as an enrolling officer for his township by Capt. Coulter and served in that capacity until the close of the war. He was a democrat until the commencement of the Civil war, after which he was a conservative republican. He served for twenty-five years as justice of the peace and the vast amount of legal business which he did during that time may be inferred from an examination of his dockets, which show over five thousand cases.
