General Notes: Husband - George Lose

---

He was born at Mount Pleasant, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and was but ten years old when his father died [different sources vary as to dates]. He was first employed by his uncle, John Graff, who was in the mercantile business at Blairsville, and later operated boats on the Pennsylvania canal, acting as superintendent of boats run by the Graff family. In 1853 he located in Burrell township, Indiana County, where he bought a tract of 168 acres (later owned by Clark Dunlap) and settled down to farming, also engaging extensively in stock raising. He built a comfortable house on that place and made many other improvements there during his ownership. He was a member and official of the M. E. Church, and on political questions was a Republican.
