General Notes: Husband - George G. Gayman
At the common schools of his district he received a fairly liberal education, and was reared to agricultural pursuits on the home farm. In the spring of 1856 he moved into East Bethlehem township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he owned a fine farm of 107 acres, situated on one of the most pleasant sites in the township, and having thereon a commodious residence and splendid out-buildings. In addition to general agriculture, he devoted a portion of his time to the raising of finebred sheep. In 1890 he and his son invented a device for curing foot-rot in sheep, and they had a factory for the manufacture of the device, at Clarksville, Greene County, which gave employment to several hands. They had salesmen and agents distributed through different parts of the Union.
Politically Mr. Gayman was a Democrat.
