General Notes: Husband - Zachariah Pool Bierer


He was a carpenter and contractor beginning in 1849. He was a sound democrat and served a number of times as burgess of Greensburg. Although active in political matters, bighearted and popular, he never sought any county office. When “Morgan, the Raider” was spreading consternation throughout the country and troops were needed to repel or capture the bold invader, Mr. Bierer raised and organized Co. C, of which he was made captain, and gallantly commanded. He was a member of the A. O. U. W., the K. of H., and is a Royal Arch Mason, a Knight Templar, and a Scottish Rite degree Mason, having reached the topmost rung of the noble Masonic ladder.
