General Notes: Husband - George Cribbs


He was born in Blacklick township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania, on his father's farm (later the George H. Cribbs farm), and there received his education in the subscription schools. After learning the trade of blacksmith he moved to West Wheatfield township, where he bought the Samuel Waddell farm of ninety acres and settled down to farming and stock raising, also following his trade. He was a Democrat up to 1852, subsequently joining the Republican party, and took some interest in local affairs, serving as school director. Originally a member of the Lutheran Church, he later joined the M. E. Church, toward which he contributed liberally.
