General Notes: Husband - Philip K. Pentz

---

He bought a farm adjoining his father's homestead, and there he resided.

He was born on the old family homestead, where he spent his boyhood working on the farm in summer and attending the local schools in winter. In 1861 he was apprenticed to a shoemaker of Brady township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, and a year later went to Punxsutawney, Jefferson County, to work, remaining one year, and then completing his trade by another year with a Mr. Ernest, of the same town. The business being thoroughly mastered by this time, he opened a shop for himself in New Salem, and continued until 1878. In the meantime he purchased forty-two acres of woodland at Du Bois Junction. He built a tasteful two-story frame dwelling, a bank barn, wagon shed, and other structures, making one of the best homesteads in the locality.
He and his wife belonged to the German Baptist Church, better known as the Dunkards. While he was an ardent Democrat in politics, he never aspired to political office.
