General Notes: Husband - Robert J. Atwell
He was just a boy when his father died. He learned the trade of carpenter, beginning his apprenticeship when sixteen years old with Joshua Griffin, who lived a mile north of the home of his future wife, and though he was a competent farmer and acquired valuable farm lands continued his mechanical work also until he was past seventy. Mr. Atwell moved to Scrubgrass Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, in the year 1855, and most of the barns put up in that section in his day were of his construction, his reputation for substantial framing bringing him plenty of occupation of this kind. Having bought part of the Scott farm, a tract of eighty acres located seven miles west of the borough of Emlenton, he lived and died there, improving the property greatly by his industry and skill. He built a dwelling there. He usually selected the timber for his building operations in the woods, and cut it himself. A man active mentally as well as physically, he took an influential part in local affairs, serving twenty-five years as justice of the peace, almost up to the time of his death; was identified with politics, originally as a Democrat, but later as a Prohibitionist; and a prominent member of the Associate Presbyterian Church, having been an elder in the old organization at East Unity and later in the church at Lisbon after the congregation divided, part going to Eau Claire, Butler County.
