General Notes: Husband - John S. Fleming

---

He received such education as the local schools afforded in his boyhood. His early practical experience and training came in the lines of farming and lumbering, and he was wide awake to the possibilities of the oil development, being one of the early investors in the new industry, which he followed with success. It is noteworthy, however, that he was formerly the owner of the Atkinson farm, where such a remarkable yield of oil was obtained not long after he sold it as to bring worldwide reputation to the spot known as Shamburg, causing it to spring almost overnight into a thriving village with stores, three hotels and banking facilities. Today it is no more than a memory. Mr. Fleming lived on his farm in Oil Creek Township until his death, erecting there in 1890 a substantial dwelling. He also began the production of oil there, sinking three wells which formed the nucleus of the large production obtained from the property.
He and his wife belonged to the Baptist Church, and he was affiliated with the A. O. U. W. and Royal Templars of Temperance, favoring the principles of the Prohibitionists. He was a Democrat, however, in political doctrine, and he took an active part in public affairs, filling several township offices. He died of pneumonia. [CAB, 874]
