General Notes: Husband - Jacob Tarr
After leaving the common schools he learned the trade of a potter, at which he worked for a number of years, becoming very proficient. A piece of pottery made by him was exhibited at an Indiana county fair and took first premium. In 1860 he embarked in the butcher business, which, in connection with farming, he followed thereafter. He was an active and careful man of business and has built for himself a house and barn among the best in the township. In politics he was formerly a whig but later a republican. He belonged to the Methodist and his wife to the Reformed church. Mr. Tarr was a man of much intelligence, had a good library, took quite an interest in ancestral history and had in his possession many relics of the past, including an Indian tomahawk.
