General Notes: Husband - Charles Remp

---

He was brought up in Erie County, New York. He had ordinary school advantages, and when a youth was apprenticed to learn the trade of harnessmaker, which, however, he never followed to any extent. Though little more than a boy during the Civil war period, he enlisted at Rochester, New York, in Company L, 50th Regiment, New York Engineers, and served two and a half years in the army, seeing active service and receiving injuries on the battlefield, two flesh wounds in the right leg and one on a finger of his right hand. After the war he came to Pennsylvania, locating at Petroleum Center, Venango County, in July, 1865, and following various kinds of employment during the year that ensued. Thence he went to Rouseville, this county, where he found work with F. W. Mitchell, pumping wells, being so engaged for thirteen years and meanwhile gaining valuable knowledge concerning oil wells and their operation. He was next with Oscar Parker for two years, as pumper, and then chose a location at Two Mile Run, in Sugar Creek Township, where he soon afterward, in company with his brother, bought a tract of fifty acres. They began drilling for oil, which they found in paying quantities, and the property has been producing ever since, Mr. Remp now having fourteen wells in operation there. He has also taken other leases in Venango County as opportunity offered, and without making any sensational finds has prospered steadily. He lived on his land in Sugar Creek Township until 1915, when he removed to Franklin, where he is now mak-ing his home with his daughter, Mrs. Ross, at No. 311 Pacific Street. Mr. Remp is well known in Venango County, and popular with all his associates. He has applied himself closely to business, having few outside interests and no aspirations for public life, though he has never been found wanting in the elements of good citizenship. Socially he holds membership in the Odd Fellows fraternity and the G. A. R., being an old-time member of Major Mays Post, of which he has been an officer for the last twenty-four years.
