General Notes: Husband - John Harguett Withrow
He received his education in the schools of Ligonier township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. Reared as he was to assist his father on the farm, he developed an inherited taste and aptitude for agricultural pursuits and always led a farmer's life. Becoming, in the natural course of events, the owner of the homestead, Mr. Withrow devoted himself to the cultivation of his ancestral acres and to the development and improvement, in all possible ways, of the estate which was originally purchased by his grandfather. His line of endeavor was that of general farming and he made a specialty of poultry-raising, having seven different varieties. Like his father and grandfather, Mr. Withrow adheres to the principles of the Republican party, but had neither time nor inclination for office-holding. He affiliated with Ligonier Lodge, No. 964, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and the Encampment, and was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church of Ligonier.
