General Notes: Husband - Joseph Coatsworth


He was born and reared in the County of Durham, England, and was there married. He was an expert lead-ore miner, and investigated its different branches in his native country. He concluded that America offered opportunities for his family, and emigrated in 1853, and followed coal-mining at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A few years later he purchased a farm in Carroll township, but finally removed to Monongahela City, where he later died. He was a strong supporter of Whig and Abolition principles, and upheld his views with tenacity. He was connected with the primitive Methodist Episcopal Church, but on coming to America united with the Methodist Episcopal Society of Monongahela City, of which he was a most conscientious member.
