General Notes: Husband - John Lauffer




He came to Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, about 1810. He settled in Franklin township, where he owned and operated a flax-seed oil mill in connection with his farming interests. He and his wife reared a family of several children, and after his death his sons operated the mill and conducted the farm for several years before any division of the estate was made.
