General Notes: Husband - John North

---

He was born at Wilmington, Delaware, and was seven years old when the family moved to Indiana County, Pennsylvania. There he finished his schooling in the home district in North Mahoning township, and when he reached manhood bought a farm of 140 acres from Charles Gaskel, who was agent for the Holland Land Company. This farm was situated in North Mahoning township and it continued to be the home of Mr. North until his death, when he was aged seventy-five years. He was a man of consequence in his neighborhood, and being a great reader was very well informed. At different times he served in numerous local offices, such as school director, overseer and supervisor. He was a zealous antislavery man, an abolitionist and later a Republican. When young he became a member of the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church of Punxsutawney, and when the church was rebuilt and the congregation was organized as a Presbyterian Church he united with it. For many years he was an elder in his church and at the time of his death was serving as trustee. [HIC 1913, 1448]

He came to America from Ireland before his marriage. After marriage they lived a few years in Canoe township, Indiana County, and then bought the farm in Young township, Jefferson County, where they made their permanent home. [HIC 1913, 1575]
