General Notes: Husband - George Emerick

---

He was born in Centre Hall, Centre County, Pennsylvania, and was reared in Penn Valley, acquiring his education in the schools of the neighborhood. He learned carpentering there, and in 1852 went to Snow Shoe, where he followed his trade for a short time. He then engaged in carpentering in Karthaus, and was prominently identified with the building interests of Centre and Clearfield counties. After his marriage Mr. Emerick located on the Reiter farm, and worked at his trade until the 1st of July, 1857, when he purchased eighty-three acres of timber land. This he transformed into a valuable farming property, and made his home thereon until his death. He was a Republican in politics, held a number of township offices. He was a member of the Lutheran Church, and was a charter member of Karthaus Lodge, No. 925, I. O. O. F. He served as representative to the grand lodge, and was buried by his home lodge.
