General Notes: Husband - Enoch B. Phillips


He was reared on a farm in days when there was but little machinery used on a farm to lighten the toils of the laborer. He received his education in the private and select schools of Washington County, Pennsylvania. On arriving at man's estate he made choice of farming for his life vocation. He was actively engaged in the cultivation of a large farm and the raising of first-class stock for nearly twenty-five years. During this time he materially augmented his means and by judicious investments in Pittsburgh acquired considerable property in that city. In 1865 he retired from active business life and until his death, nearly twenty years later, enjoyed the fruits of his honest labors. During the war of the Great Rebellion he furnished a man to serve in his place in the Union army. He removed to a beautiful piece of property one and a half miles from Greensburg, in Hempfield township.
