General Notes: Husband - Hiram Boughner

---

He was reared on the farm and attended school in the neighborhood. His practical training was obtained at home, and was comprehensive and thorough, as the excellent condition of his property attests, his time at present being devoted entirely to its operation. He has added to its original area by purchase, now having over one hundred acres, all under profitable cultivation. For several years he handled large transactions as a sheep dealer, buying all over northwestern Pennsylvania and even in Ohio, purchasing as many as eight hundred head in two weeks' time, and bunching them at his farm until it was convenient to ship them. He sent them to the New York market, turning them over to a driver. Meantime he also continued the management of his farm, where he has always made his home. He has never married. Politically he is a Democrat, but he has not been active in public affairs of any kind. [HVC 1919, 687]
