General Notes: Husband - Philip Swope


He and his wife were both natives of Germany, and on crossing the Atlantic in 1821 they located in Brady township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, where he worked with Mr. Corb on the pike between Clearfield and Luthersburg. Subsequently, however, he removed to Ohio, where he spent eleven years, and then returned to Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, purchasing one hundred acres of land southeast of Luthersburg in Brady township. He at once commenced to clear and improve the place, building at first a round-log house and barn, but in 1860 he replaced the log house with a commodious frame residence, where he and his worthy wife spent the remainder of their lives. He died at the age of eighty-nine years, eleven months.


General Notes: Wife - Elizabeth Youghes


She died when eighty-four years old.
