General Notes: Husband - George Washington Beringer
He was reared in Clinton Township, Venango County, PA, having such educational advantages as the common schools of the day afforded. His early life was occupied with the duties of the farm, but he was soon engaged in the principal industry of the territory, drilling on Oil creek and in 1860 entering upon the construction of derricks for local producers. Later he commenced producing on his own account, settling at Bullion and contracting to drill for Phillips Brothers on the old Beringer farm during the great excitement. He and his brother David bought that land from their father, and later purchased the various oil leases there, and some years afterward he acquired his brother's interests, becoming sole owner of both the land and the leases. He cultivated the farm and kept extending the oil production there as well as in other fields where he was interested, and when he died his estate was one of the most valuable in the township.
