General Notes: Husband - Jesse Pardee


He was educated in the common schools, and in early life learned the occupation of a farmer; he also worked in a rope-walk. He commenced life without any means, but by industry and frugality he accumulated some 210 acres of land, which he eventually divided among his children, with whom he now lived comfortably on the interest of his savings. He also had transactions to some extent in oil. He came to Crawford County, Pennsylvania, in 1820, walking all the way from Connecticut, with a knapsack on his back weighing thirty-six pounds, starting on his journey February 22, and arriving in Meadville March 13 following. He then began work on the Meadville and Franklin pike; after that he cleared ten acres of land for Christian Steinbrook, at the same time improving the occasion by courting his employer's daughter. [HCC 1885, 899]

In the spring of 1820 he went to Meadville, Pennsylvania, to join his elder brother, Daniel. The inborn thrift of the New Englander and his untiring industry soon made him one of the prominent men of his district. He was a man of rare judgment and in all matters of importance was often sought in counsel by neighbors. He took great interest in public affairs, serving as a school director, assessor, supervisor and tax collector, holding each office several times.
