General Notes: Husband - John Hancock
He was born in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, and came with his father to Clearfield County in 1819. There he aided in the arduous task of developing the wild land, clearing away the timber, and grubbing up the roots. After his marriage he rented land, which he operated until 1838, when he purchased a tract of raw land in Lawrence township, and opened up a farm. In connection with agricultural pursuits he carried on lumbering, rafting the products of the sawmill down the river to market. In this capacity he contracted with Bigler & Reed, the senior member of the firm afterward becoming governor of the state. There was a warm friendship between him and Mr. Hancock. In 1855 the latter sold his farm and purchased the property on which his son Isaiah later resided; there he spent his remaining days. In politics he was a Whig, and served in some local offices, including that of committeeman of his township. He was a loyal advocate of the Union cause at the time of the Civil War, and at the "emergency" call of Governor Curtin enlisted in the service. Three of his sons were numbered among the "boys in blue." Mr. Hancock and his wife were faithful members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
