General Notes: Husband - John J. Hoffman

---

He passed his earlier years at home, working on the farm in summer, and attending the common school during the winter. He attended the academy at Jefferson, Greene County, Pennsylvania, one term. Immediately after marriage he settled on the farm adjoining his father's in Greene County, (formerly owned by Samuel Braden), and remained there until the fall of 1890. They then removed to a farm of 182 acres in Amwell township, Washington County. He was also the owner of 287 acres in Greene County. He and his family were members of the Baptist Church, and in politics he was a straight Democrat, liberal in his views, and voting more for principle than for political influence.
