General Notes: Husband - Jacob Truby

---

His early life was spent on the farm and working at an iron furnace, in both of which positions he acquired considerable practical skill. At the age of twelve he removed with his parents to a farm in Scrubgrass township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, where he remained until the time of his marriage, at the age of twenty-five. During the winter months he was permitted to attend the country school, and acquired the elements of an English education.
On the 1st of April, 1834, he and his wife removed from Scrubgrass to Emlenton, to superintend the hotel and ferry. He continued in the hotel business nine years, and then built the Truby warehouse, still standing on Water street, from which were supplied the stores for the furnaces in the adjacent country during a period of ten years. He was a captain of militia for seven years. Politically he was a Whig, and then a Republican. He was identified with the Methodist Episcopal church. [HVC 1890, 930]
