General Notes: Husband - Christian Ritz

---

He was a native of Berks County, Pennsylvania, removing from there to Clarion County, where he bought a farm in Richland township many years ago. He cleared and improved the farm, and lived there until his death. Little else is recorded of him except that he was a Democrat in his political opinions, and that he and his wife were both earnest members of the Lutheran church.
