General Notes: Husband - Samuel T. Karns

---

He was the third son of his father. He spent his youth and early manhood on the old homestead in Cranberry Township, Venango County, PA, but he was ambitious to be independent, and in 1864 he removed to Franklin, hoping to find opportunities more plentiful than on the farm. Upon settling in the city he commenced teaming, beginning a business which continued to be his principal occupation to the end of his days, and in which his sons, Augustine S. and Samuel D., later joined him. Forming the firm of S. T. Karns & Co., in 1884, they also carried on the wholesale notion business in Franklin, doing well in both lines. [CAB, 669 & 833]
