General Notes: Husband - Henry Jordan
He was a resident of Baltimore, Maryland. He followed his father into western Pennsylvania, and as soon as he was fitted to strike out for himself, he bought a farm of 200 acres. This tract was similar to the surrounding places, in that it was mainly covered with virgin forest, so Mr. Jordan was compelled to release the fields from the bondage of the forest, and sow them to grain. He hewed away at the woodland giants and in time built the old home which long stood as a relic and landmark on one portion of the estate.
