General Notes: Husband - Isaac Barnhart

---

He resided on the farm where he was born in Brady's Bend township, Armstrong County, PA, a half mile south of the Kay­lor post office. He obtained his education there, attending the local schools until he was about fourteen years old, after which he worked steadily on the home farm up to the time he was twenty, at the outbreak of the Civil war. He then enlisted in the Union army, joining Company B, 103d Pennsylvania Volunteers, organized at Kittanning, in which he became corporal; he was mustered into the service Sept. 24, 1861. He also served with the 8th Independent New York Artillery from Nov. 28, 1863, being mustered out July 8, 1865. He saw much active service and was wounded once. Returning to his home in Brady's Bend township in August, 1865, he remained there until December, when he went to Hamden, Delaware County, NY, at which place he was married, and in 1866 returned to Brady's Bend township and settled on the home place. He followed farming there very successfully, owning a fine property of five acres near Kaylor (within the limits of the Kaylor voting precinct) and worked at his trade, harnessmaking. For some years he took a direct part in township affairs, in which he always maintained public-spirited inter­est. He served twelve years as school director, and was constable for one term. Politically he has been a lifelong Republican.
He and his second wife were both active in Grange work, having been charter members of the Kaylor Grange, No. 1396, which he served as chaplain and Mrs. Barnhart as Ceres. They were members and earnest work­ers in the M. E. Church, Mr. Barnhart hold­ing the offices of trustee and district steward.
