General Notes: Husband - Joseph Mosgrove Schrecengost


He grew to manhood on the farm and received his education in the local common schools. He was a farmer all his life. After his marriage he and his wife settled on a farm in Cowanshannock township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, thence moving to another home in Rayburn township in 1897. Here he devoted his time and attention to general farming, prospering in his work by dint of well-applied energy, up-to-date methods and efficient management. He gave his services as school director and supervisor while in Cowanshannock township. In politics he was a Republican. His religious connection was with the Reformed Church.
