General Notes: Husband - Jonathan Galley


He was reared in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, and educated in the subscription schools. He always confined himself to agricultural pursuits. In early life he engaged in the nursery business, as his father did before him. His first purchase was a farm of one hundred and twenty acres, to which he subsequently added one hundred and twelve more, all of which were in German township. His land was rich in coal, and seventy acres of it were sold to coal operators. He filled the offices of school director, supervisor and tax collector.
