General Notes: Husband - Henry Smull


The Smull family in Brush Valley, Centre County, Pennsylvania, is descended from him and his brothers, Jacob and Peter, who were all skilled masons, and all went at the same time to Rebersburg to build the wall for the Lutheran Reformed Church. They remained in the Valley, and, living in German settlements, they and their children adopted the language and customs of their neighbors.

He was born in eastern Pennsylvania, and, coming to Brush Valley in early manhood with no capital except his own abilities and strong physique, was obliged to work for many years as a day laborer. He saved his money, however, and in time managed to buy a farm between Kreamerville and Centre Mill. The care of the place devolved mainly upon his family as he con­tinued to work at his trade. Politically he was a Democrat, but aside from voting regularly he took no active part in public affairs. He be­longed to the Lutheran Church, and was a con­stant attendant and active worker, holding vari­ous offices. His last years were spent in Rockville, Pennsylvania, in well-earned leisure, his toil hav­ing gained him a comfortable competence.
