General Notes: Husband - George W. Foltz


He learned the trade of a carpenter at Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, and afterward became a contractor and bridge builder. The first bridge built by him (Colonel Stewart, contractor) was a wooden structure that crossed Licking creek at Claylick Hall. It was opened with a monster Whig Meeting in the Taylor campaign of 1848. In 1866, he bought the Messersmith farm south of Chambersburg, where he lived until his death. In politics he was a Republican. He was a member of the Lutheran Church, but his wife was a German Baptist.
