General Notes: Husband - Jeremiah Peirsel


He was of Welsh descent, and was educated in the common schools. He was always a farmer, and located upon a farm, where his son Samuel later resided, in 1824, and remained there until his death. He was an exemplary member of the old Redstone Baptist Church for more than sixty years. He never held a political office; never had a lawsuit; never had any difficulties with his neighbors. His long life was due in a measure, no doubt, to his amiable disposition.

He and his wife had twelve children, seven sons and five daughters.


General Notes: Wife - Mary Beal

from Menallen Twp, Fayette Co, PA

For a great part of her life she was seriously afflicted by mental maladies, and her husband took the utmost tender care of her, never being heard to complain of his unhappy lot.
