General Notes: Husband - Joseph Kittinger

---

He was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and when he was eight years of age his father moved to Buffalo, New York. When he was sixteen years old he was sent to Franklin County, Pennsylvania, to learn the trade of a weaver, at which he worked nearly all his lifetime. Later in life he bought and stocked a farm which his sons worked. He was a self-made and self-educated man, fitting himself for a teacher, which profession he followed in winter for many years. He was strictly temperate, and, though never an office seeker, took a warm interest in public affairs. In politics he was an ardent Republican.

Three of his children died quite young, but five were still living in 1886.
