General Notes: Husband - Joseph Lines
He married and located on his father's old homestead near the Brady pottery, but subsequently bought what was known as the Read farm, in Taylortown, on the Erie & Sunbury pike, where he made his home until his death. He was one of the largest lumber jobbers in that section of the county, and for a number of years carried on operations along Anderson creek. Later at different times he was connected with John, Abel and John E. Du Bois, doing business with the last named for about ten years previous to his death. He accumulated considerable property, and was numbered among the influential and prominent citizens of the community.
In 1861 he enlisted in the Fifth P. V. I., belonging to Company E, commanded by Capt. Loraine, of Clearfield, and took part in all the battles in which his regiment was engaged, including Bull Run, Antietam, Lookout Mountain, and the seven-days' fight in the Wilderness. He was a Lutheran in belief, but a member of no church, and always affiliated with the Democratic party, on whose ticket he was elected to a number of local offices.
