General Notes: Husband - Joseph Addison Summerville


After attending the public schools he was for a time a student in the Freeport Academy of Pennsylvania. At the age of twenty he began teaching, and successfully followed that profession for nine years, or in all ninety months. In 1856 he came to Clarion County and first located in Porter township. It was in 1866 that he removed to a farm of 100 acres in Madison township, and to its cultivation and improvement he thereafter devoted the greater part of his time and attention.
His political support was given the Democracy, and he was one of the best informed men in the county on the subject of American politics. For thirty years he served as justice of the peace, was secretary of the school board for sixteen years, tax collector ten years, and also treasurer, and county surveyor for five years. He was a member of the State Legislature in 1877 and 1878. He was one of the active and prominent members of the Associate Presbyterian Church of Rimersburg, and served as elder. [CBRCP-CCJC, 1591]
