General Notes: Husband - George W. Mattern

---

He was educated in the schools of Franklin township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. He grew up on the farm and frequently indulged in hunting and fishing. His father was heavily in debt, and he, remaining on the home farm, helped to clear it of incumbrance. He worked the farm for his father by the month, from 1835 until his father's death, when he bought the homestead. In the autumn of 1873 he retired from business and moved to Warriors Mark, where he lived quietly for over eighteen years.
He was a staunch Republican, always supporting the ticket. He was a delegate to county conventions twenty times or more. He served as county commissioner in 1857-58-59.
