General Notes: Husband - John Calvin Schoch


He was born in Franklin township, Snyder County, Pennsylvania, and was reared upon a farm. His education was begun in the district schools near his home, and he afterward attended the academies at New Berlin and Selins Grove. In 1862 he enlisted for nine months in Company F, 131st P. V. I., and went to the seat of war, where he took part in a number of important engagements, including the battles of Antietam and Chancellorsville. He was discharged at the end of nine months and twenty-one days of service, and, returning home, he resumed the work of farming. In 1864 he took charge of the homestead, which he continued to operate until 1892, doing general agricultural work. He became the owner of the homestead farm, superintending the cultivation of it himself. In November, 1892, he was elected to the office of prothonotary, and was re-elected in 1895. He was a stanch Republican, one of the chief advisers of the party in his locality.
