General Notes: Husband - Joseph Parshall
He was a stone-cutter by trade and worked at that trade for thirty-seven years, when his lungs became so affected with the dust made by his chisel that he went west to seek his health in the mountain climate of Wyoming; the disease proved too serious to be remedied, and he died in Virginia City in 1874, aged fifty-two years. He was a United Presbyterian in church matters, and a member of the Masonic brotherhood.
He was born on his father's farm in eastern Pennsylvania. He was a stone-cutter by trade and this he followed after locating in Mercer County for a period of thirty-seven years. Failing health led him to try a different climate and he went to Virginia City, Nevada, where he died.
