General Notes: Husband - Henry K. North
He was reared to farm work on his father's farm, where he remained until the age of twenty-five. He then engaged in farming at his own homestead, and also became interested in the lumber business. In 1884 he erected a sawmill on his place, and after clearing the land entirely, he transferred the business, in 1893, to Big Run, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, where he had a forty-horse-power mill with a capacity of 30,000 feet per day.
He belonged to various social orders in Punxsutawney, including the K. of P., the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, the United Workmen, and the Junior Mechanics. In the political issues of the day he always supported the Republican policy. In 1890 he was elected constable of the township.
