General Notes: Husband - Aaron Musselman
He was born on the home farm and lived there until he was twenty-four years old, when he removed to Fairfield with his mother, his father having died some time before. In the spring of 1877 he went to Kansas; and some months after moved to the Indian Territory [Oklahoma], coming home in December of the same year, and then clerking for his brother David R., for three years. He then began farming a place in the neighborhood of Fairfield, renting his own farm near the mountain. He and his wife were prominent members of musical circles. He was, for twenty years, leader of the choirs of both the Lutheran and Reformed Churches in Fairfield, and on the organization of the band in that place, in 1869, became its conductor, filling that position for eleven years.
He held several responsible township offices; was a member of Valley Home Lodge, I. O. O. F., and also of the Lutheran Church. He was a Republican in politics since he first voted, voting for Gen. Grant in the fall of 1868, casting his first vote in that year.
General Notes: Wife - Anna E. Watson
For twelve years she was a teacher of instrumental music, and all of that time she was organist of the Reformed Church, and for three or four years also in the Lutheran Church.
