General Notes: Husband - Peter A. Amick

---

In 1815 Peter A. Amick came from Adams County, Pennsylvania, where he was born, and settled on land where the borough of St. Clairsville, Bedford County, would later stand. Mr. and Mrs. Amick moved into a house which was without windows and doors. At first they hung up quilts which served in the place of doors. Shortly after settling there Mr. Amick began keeping tavern, and as his means permitted he added to his house and otherwise improved it. He was commissioned the first postmaster of the town and the office was in the hands of the family for many years. He kept hotel and worked at his trade of coopering, until 1877, when he died.
