General Notes: Husband - James North

---

With his brothers, Caleb and Joshua, he established a tannery at Millerstown, Perry County, Pennsylvania, continuing there until about the year 1800, when James withdrew and located at Thompsontown, in Juniata (then Cumberland) County. He there established a tannery which he operated for many years. He was a justice of the peace, then an office of great importance (practically a judgeship), served for many years, and was prominent in local affairs, being a man of intelligence above the average. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and a man of strictly religious life.
