General Notes: Husband - George D. Smith

---

New Bethlehem, Clarion Co, PA

He received his educational discipline in the district schools and, after reaching years of maturity, turned his attention to farming and lumbering. In 1859 he worked in the lumber woods for thirteen dollars per month, and in the following spring he grubbed ten acres of land for ten dollars.
In the spring of 1862, he enlisted in Company B, 78th Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, for service in the Civil War. He participated in the eighteen engagements in which the Cumberland Army figured, and was wounded at Stone's river, from which place he was the only one out of seventy men to escape capture. He enlisted as a private, but during the last two years of the war was a corporal in the First Division, Second Brigade, 14th Army corps. In the summer of 1865 he was honorably discharged and mustered out of service at Nashville, Tennessee.
After the close of the war Mr. Smith returned to Pennsylvania and cut wood for the government in the northwest during 1866-67. For about three years he was engaged in the lumber business. He was a resident of Elk County for a period of eight years, and for seven or eight years was interested there in saw-milling and boat-building. He was in Perryopolis, Fayette County, when that city had but three houses. In 1869 he returned to Armstrong County, where he was successfully engaged in farming. During later years he built up a large business, selling nursery stock.
He was a great lover of nature, and had a peculiar way of his own of calling to him deer and geese with a buck's horn.
