General Notes: Husband - David Marquis

---

He was born in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and on becoming a master of the saddler's trade, removed to Beaver, and resided in that borough until 1842, when the vicinity of Brighton became his home. There he spent the remainder of his life.

He obtained the usual amount of schooling in the common schools of the day and when quite a youth apprenticed himself to the saddler and harnessmaker's trade at Noblestown, Washington County, Pennsylvania. Completing the term of his apprenticeship, he followed the trade for a few years in the place where he had learned it and then moved to Beaver. There he still worked actively at his trade, continuing so all his life. He was a Republican in political action and was at one time supervisor of Rochester township, taking besides a prominent part in all public matters. Although it was rather a departure from the regular channels of his trade, he was engaged to bore out the logs that served as the first pipes for the distribution of the water supplied by the first waterworks of Beaver, that being long before the day of terra cotta or metal pipes. His shop was located on Third street, the site later occupied by the Mayo Drug Store. In his later years he retired from active work at his trade and purchased about thirty-five acres of his father-in-law's estate, erecting thereon a large brick house, and there spending the last days of an extraordinarily long and useful life, his death occurring when he was aged ninety-one years. Both he and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church.
