General Notes: Husband - Andrew Spanogle


He was educated in the common schools of Shirley township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, whither his parents removed when he was seven years old. Attending the schools during the winter and assisting on the farm in the summer, he remained at home until he reached his majority. He then, with Jesse Kauffman as his partner, engaged in the manufacture of woolen goods in his father's mill. Two years later, he went to Venango County, where he aided his father in the construction of a flouring-mill, and married in the autumn of 1848. From that time for fourteen years, he was engaged in farming in Huntingdon and Blair counties. In 1865, Mr. Spanogle entered into a partnership at Lewistown with his brother, Jacob, his son, and William M. Pannebaker, under the firm name of J. Spanogle & Co.; this firm built the North American Tannery at Lewistown, and carried on the manufacture of leather successfully for about fifteen years. In 1868, Mr. Spanogle bought a farm in Derry township, Mifflin County, on which he built a large and commodious dwelling, and made many other improvements; this became his residence. In 1884, he bought the Mt. Rock flouring mills, later conducted by Spanogle & Yeager; he also purchased the Reedsville flouring mills, which were managed by the same firm. He also had large agricultural interests in Mifflin County.
He never desired to hold political office, however, yielding to the wishes of his friends, he became a candidate for director of the poor, was elected by a substantial majority.
He was a loyal member of the German Baptist church.

He married and they took up housekeeping in April, 1849, on the Bare homestead, near Three Springs, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, but after three years, returned to Morrison's Cove, where they lived until April, 1865, when they moved to Lewistown, Pennsylvania, where they both lived until her death.

He was elected a minister of the Church of the Brethren in the year 1870. In this position he served his church for many years. He was the originator and prime mover in the establishment of a home for old people. This home was first started at Shirelysburg, where it continued for some years, but it was his opinion that a better location for this home would be in Morrison's Cove. After some investigation, it was decided to locate it permanently at Martinsburg, Pennsylvania, where land was purchased and a suitable and substantial brick building was erected, where it continued under the management of a Board of Directors, of which Elder Andrew Spanogle was the President.
