General Notes: Husband - Absalom Smullin

---

He was reared on the old family homestead and soon after attaining his majority purchased forty acres of land from his father, and forty-five acres from W. R. Hamilton, which he cleared and farmed until he reached the age of about forty. Then he embarked in the mercantile business at Putneyville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, as a member of the firm of G. S. Putney & Co., with which he was connected for nearly a quarter of a century, when he retired from active business life.
His wife and three of their children died of typhoid fever in 1885, and Mr. Smullin broke up housekeeping soon after and went to Marionville, Forest County, Pennsylvania, where he worked as clerk in the store of his son-in-law for a short time. Then he removed to Tennessee, where he died at the age of eighty-four years.
