General Notes: Husband - William Weaver

---

He attended the common schools of Hopewell township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, and began active life on the farm with his father. He resided on the homestead until 1843, when he bought 100 acres of the homestead farm, and thereafter cultivated that land. He also bought 400 acres in Hopewell township and in Bedford County, all of which was cultivated under his direction. He paid attention also to raising stock.
He was for six years on the school board of the township, and was supervisor for four terms. He was a Democrat. In 1889 he was a candidate for the office of associate judge, and, although defeated by the Republican candidate, had a very large vote.
He did not enlist during the war of the Rebellion, being rejected on account of disability.
He was a member of the Lutheran church, and a faithful worker in the Sunday-school, which he served as teacher and superintendent. He attended all the Sunday-school conventions held in the county.
