General Notes: Husband - John S. Holden

Pike Twp, Clearfield Co, PA

He went to school through boyhood, attending sessions held in what was known as the Holden school-house, his father having donated the building for school purposes, for a period of twenty-one years. Afterward he engaged in farming, his first purchase of land being the old McClure farm of 140 acres, situated in Pike Township, Clearfield County. He lived there for some years and then moved to another farm, which was one of great production, averaging 700 bushels of grain a year. He sold the coal, not wishing to develop it himself, and had some thirty acres of the land in valuable timber.
