General Notes: Husband - Matthew Caldwell

---

He took up his resi­dence in Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, in 1819, and helped to cut the first road from Curwensville to Bloomington, on which he purchased a tract of wild land and improved a farm, it being in Pike township, where he spent the remainder of his life, chiefly engaged in farm­ing. He was also interested in the lumber busi­ness to some extent, and was among the first to build arks and float coal down the river to market. His death occurred April 24, 1869. Politically he was a stanch Democrat, and religiously both he and his wife were faithful members of the Presbyterian Church, in which he served as elder for many years.

Twenty children were born to him and his wife, of whom nine died in infancy.
