General Notes: Husband - J. Fletcher Shirey

---

He was reared on his father's farm, and received his education in the schools of the neighborhood. As soon as old enough to handle the plow he began work in the fields, and always followed farming. In 1872 he purchased the Matthew Forcey homestead, comprising 210 acres of improved land, on which he erected substantial buildings. He came to own 285 acres, all under a high state of cultivation. He also engaged in lumbering.
He belonged to the Society of American Mechanics, at Kylertown, and he and his wife were members of the United Brethren Church.
