General Notes: Husband - Jacob Strickler

---

He worked for his father until his marriage, then moved onto the Henry Galley farm, remaining one year. He then bought one hundred and twenty-eight acres in the eastern part of Franklin township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, and a few years later purchased the Oglivee farm lying in both Dunbar and Franklin townships. In 1892 he built a frame house on the farm, letting his son William have the red brick mansion\emdash here he lived until his death. He was Presbyterian in religion, his wife a German Baptist or "Dunkard." He was a Democrat in politics and served as school director. While he was a very well-to-do farmer he made most of his money in cattle raising and dealing.

He was born of poor parents and made his own way in the world. He started out in life without a dollar, but he became a man of means. He gave to each of his twelve children a good farm, aggregating in value about sixty thousand dollars. He was a Democrat, and a member of the Presbyterian church, and held most of the township offices.
