General Notes: Husband - James C. Haylett

---

He was born at his father's old homestead along the Utica and Waterloo road, a mile and a half south of the borough of Utica, PA. He was reared on the farm and allowed such educational advantages as could be had in the common schools of the neighborhood. He was trained to agricultural work, and followed it most of his life, though he spent several years of his young manhood in the oil fields, going to the Brad­ford region when seventeen years old and working there during the next eight years, or up to the time of his marriage. About that time he took over the operation of his father's farm, his parents removing to Five Points until Mrs. Haylett's death, after which James Haylett made his home with his son and daughter-in-law on the old place. He gave all his time to its operation as long as he lived there, and remodeled all the buildings, having all the details of the property in excellent condition. He removed thence to another home in February, 1908, having bought the old Hiram Reynolds farm on the Mercer County line, a very favorably situated body of land ten miles west of Franklin on the Georgetown road, and convenient to the boroughs of Utica and Polk, being three and a half miles southwest of the former and four miles northwest of the latter. The substantial brick house was built by Mr. Reynolds, the brick being made on the farm. Upon his death it went to his son Rufus, from whom Mr. Haylett purchased it. It was in a particularly fine section, and naturally one of the most valuable tracts there, to say nothing of the improvements which enhanced its worth, both agriculturally and as a home place. Mr. Haylett got the full value out of his land by scientific drainage and liming, kept high-grade stock, and did well in every department of his work. He had several set­backs, his barn having been burned three times, the first time when it was full of grain, and with a loss of stock as well as crops on the other two occasions, three horses and other animals having been destroyed. But he did not allowed these things to discourage him, go­ing ahead with his work and making up for the disasters by increased energy. He kept in touch with progressive movements among farmers through his membership in the Grange, and was an active worker in the Democratic Party, on whose ticket he was elected to several township offices, the duties of which he discharged capably.
