General Notes: Husband - John Hand


He and his wife were both natives of Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. They removed to Clearfield County, in 1854, locating upon unimproved land in what was then Brady (later Sandy) township, about a mile from the later site of Du Bois. He engaged in farming and lumbering for many years.

He was born in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, where he was reared to agricultural pursuits, and married. He then purchased a farm in Schuylkill County, where he continued to reside for a number of years. He then sold and bought a partially-improved place in Brady township, Clearfield County, upon which he erected a good house and barn and made many other valuable improvements, clearing almost the entire place. In 1861, however, he bought 115 acres in Sandy township, one mile north of Stanley, where his son Simon later resided. After clearing twenty-five or thirty acres, he returned to the old homestead in Sandy township.
