General Notes: Husband - Peter Johnson Anthony

---

He was born on Anthony's run, near Shelocta, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. He remained at the old homestead for two years and engaged in farming and lumbering. In 1865 he sold out and moved to Indiana County, near Covode, where for three years he engaged in general farming. In 1868 he moved to Jefferson County, on the East Branch of the Mahoning creek. On April 25, 1871, he moved again [to Indiana County?]

He was born at the old family home in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and was a child when he was taken to Jefferson County, where he grew to manhood, his education being secured in the local schools, while he assisted his father in farming and lumbering. He married and for four years they resided at the homestead where he engaged in agriculture and lumbering on his own account. He then sold out and removed to Indiana County, purchasing a farm near Covode, and remaining three years. On disposing of that place he returned to Jefferson County, and bought one hundred and thirty acres of timber land on the east branch of the Mahoning, where he continued his lumbering operations. About 1870 he purchased the Keppel farm on Stump creek, two miles east of Big Run, and made his home there. He cleared a large number of acres, taking out the stumps, and came to have one of the well-cultivated farms of the township. In 1894 he built a two-story residence with all the modern improvements. Politically Mr. Anthony was a Republican, and he came of the good old-line Whig stock from which the anti-slavery element was so largely recruited. He was never an office seeker, the only position he ever held was that of school director, in which he served one term. As members of the M. E. Church at Big Run, he and his wife were actively interested in all forms of religious work.
