General Notes: Husband - Thomas Laurence Way
He remained at home assisting his father on the farm until his own marriage, in 1882, when he settled on his father's Chestnut Ridge farm for a time, afterward moving to Bridgeport, where he engaged in teaming for L. E. Arnold for a season and then went back to farming. In 1887 he moved to the Col. E. A. Irvin farm and was in the employ of Colonel Irvin for four years, when he bought property near Curwensville and occupied it for two years. Mr. Way then settled on a farm, on which he lived thereafter, which was situated in Pike township and was the old Bloom homestead, formerly owned by the parents of his wife. Mr. Way made many substantial improvements there, in 1889 building a barn and remodeling the house, which was erected in 1886. He had about 108 acres of cleared land. He carried on general farming and stock raising and made a feature of dairying, selling his milk wholesale to the milk depot at Curwensville, keeping about twelve cows and calculating on having twenty-five gallons of milk a day.
