General Notes: Husband - Frederick C. Mohney


He grew to manhood at Hawthorn, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, where his father had a store, moving there in 1865. He learned the trade of carpenter, and for many years was employed at such work in Kittanning, where for nineteen years he was employed by the American Planing Mill Company and the Heilman Lumber Company, becoming foreman in the planing mill. He became quite well known in that borough, serving as member of the city council, and in 1908 he was elected county auditor. He moved from the borough to engage in the poultry business, buying a piece of land in Rayburn township one mile from Kittanning, a valuable property of twenty-four acres to which he thereafter gave the greater part of his time and attention. He built a fine brick house there, and made many other improvements on the place. He was especially interested in poultry, raising White Leghorn and Rhode Island Red stock.


General Notes: Wife - Rebecca Emhuff


She was born in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, and when quite young moved to Armstrong County with her parents, the family settling on a farm three miles from New Bethlehem.
