General Notes: Husband - John M. Shick


He was born in what was called Sugar valley, in Red Bank township, near Hawthorn, Clarion County, Pennsylvania. He was educated in the schools of the township, and worked for his father on the farm until twenty-one years old. He remained on the farm and took care of his father and crippled sister, and he inherited the farm from his father, continuing to follow farming all his life.
He was at first a Democrat in politics, later becoming a Republican. He was active in township affairs, serving as school director, overseer of the poor and treasurer. He was a member of the Evangelical Church, and he was one of the foremost workers in the church, holding the offices of trustee, elder, steward and class leader. He went out among the people and held prayer meetings, and his devotion was rewarded by excellent results.
