General Notes: Husband - Levi Schreckengost

---

He spent his early life at Putneyville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and obtained a common school education there. In 1862 he enlisted in the Union army, becoming a member of Com-pany D, 103d Pennsylvania Volunteer In-fantry, and saw considerable active service. He was taken prisoner on or about April 20, 1864, and was confined at Andersonville and Milan, Georgia, and Charleston and Florence, South Carolina, being paroled March 1, 1865, at Goldsboro, North Carolina. He was honorably discharged after three years of service, and returned home with health so impaired by his impri-sonment that it was several years before he could resume work regularly. He then en-tered the employ of G. S. Putney & Sons, at Putneyville, remaining with them for several years, until he purchased the tract of 124 acres near that place upon which he thereafter made his home. He finished clearing the land, and improved it continually, having a very attractive property as the re-sult of his unceasing efforts. For over forty years he carried on bee culture, of which he made a specialty in his work, having over one hundred hives.
