General Notes: Husband - Cephas Lindley


He settled in Franklin township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and was for many years engaged in buying and selling stock, becoming quite a wealthy man at one time, but reverses followed his early success, and swept away the greater part of his property. He might have legally retained a portion of the wreck, but his fine sense of honor would not permit him to reserve any part of that which should meet his obligations.
He and his family were active members of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. In political opinion he was a Whig, and after the organization of the party was a Republican.
