General Notes: Husband - Robert Manifold
He passed his early years on the home farm in North Strabane township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and attended the school at Washington borough some years. He afterward shared in the management of the home place, together with his brothers John and James, which they purchased after renting it for several years. Mr. Manifold never married and his sister kept house for him. About 1890 the brothers made a division of the property, and the home place fell to the share of Robert. He then built a large house and barn, and made many other improvements. Politically he was first a Whig, and, after the organization of the party, was a stanch Republican, although never accepting political office. He was a member of the Chartiers Presbyterian Church, to which he contributed liberally.
