General Notes: Husband - Judge James Mitchell

---

He was born on the family homestead in Butler County, Pennsylvania, and spent his younger days in teaching school. In 1851 he was elected county commissioner, and subsequently associate judge of Butler County. He took a deep interest in educational matters and filled the office of school director nearly all his life. Politically, he was a stanch Whig, and on the formation of the Republican party he joined that organization and for many years was one of its leading members. In religious faith, he was a Presbyterian, and filled the office of elder for many years beginning in 1849.
