General Notes: Husband - David Mitchell

---

He had very meager school advantages when he was a boy and as soon as old enough he went into the woods and worked at lumbering. He acquired his position of financial independence entirely through his own efforts and claimed that he never loafed a day in his life. He had very practical ideas from the start and began buying timber tracts as soon as he had capital, clearing them off and then selling and by 1869 he had acquired the means to purchase a farm on which he then lived, which was formerly the property of Lewis Smith. He has about 165 of his 800 acres cleared and under cultivation. After his marriage he had settled on a small place in Burnside township near his timber tract, and lived there until he bought his Greenwood township farm. Other and later purchases were: 130 and 225 acres near Bower; 112 acres of the Hoover farm, and 340 acres in Bell township. He was a stockholder in the Farmers and Traders Bank of Clearfield County and a charter member of the Mahaffey National Bank at Mahaffey, Pennsylvania. He served in almost all the township offices.
He was a Republican in his political sentiments. He belonged to the order of Odd Fellows at Mahaffey and for thirty-five years or more belonged to Greenwood Grange, of which he was a charter member.
