General Notes: Husband - Judge Jacob Kahle
He came from Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, to Clarion County, and settled on the Fryburg road, about two miles north of Shippenville, in Elk township, in 1826, and began clearing and improving a farm. At that time this locality was somewhat of a wilderness. Bears were quite numerous, and would sometimes come into the yard in broad daylight. At one time the family was interrupted, while eating dinner, by the squealing of a pig, struggling in the clutches of a bruin, who wanted some dinner also. At another time, while on the road to Shippenville, then a little village of four or five houses, Mr. Kahle, accompanied by his sons George and John W., was again called to the rescue of a pig, squealing for life, at the mercy of two bears. After being chased away from the pig, the bears came out on the road near where the boys were standing. The situation became frightful. The boys began to utter such terrific cries, which were mistaken for fierceness, that the bears soon made their way into the forest. Wolves, deer, and other wild animals frequently made their appearance on the premises. [HCC 1887, 643]
He removed from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, at an early age and settled on a farm in Elk township, Clarion County, which he cultivated until his death. It was then owned by his son, Thomas Muhlenburg Kahle. He was prominent in public affairs and was at one time associate judge of Clarion county.
In 1857, he was elected associate judge for one term in Clarion county, serving until 1861.
