General Notes: Husband - Solomon W. Shaffer


He was born in Beaver township, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, and was reared on his father's farm. He married and their home was made on a farm in Ringgold township, Jefferson County. It contained seventy-five acres, and cost $2,300, of which sum Mr. Shaffer paid $1,000 in cash. After operating the place five years he sold it for $2,600, and then for two years he rented a farm in the same township from Mr. Geitz. On leaving that place he rented a residence at North Freedom, Pennsylvania, where he remained six months, and then he purchased another farm in Ringgold township. A year later he sold this place at an advance of $200, and bought a farm of sixty-nine acres, for which he paid $3,000. In local affairs he was active and influential, being a strong adherent of the Republican party, and he served at least two terms as assessor, also one as constable.
