General Notes: Husband - Washington Bovard
He resided with his parents until maturity, and received his education in the pioneer schools of his neighborhood. In 1845 he embarked in merchandising at West Sunbury, which business he followed for five years. He then settled upon a part of the homestead farm in Cherry township, owning a farm of 140 acres of well improved land. He and his wife were members of Bethel United Presbyterian church, in which society he filled the office of elder. Politically, he was a Prohibitionist, always true to his party and an ardent advocate of its principles. In 1855 he was elected a justice of the peace, in which office he served five years. He was a school director for twenty years, and filled many other offices in the township. The postoffice at Bovard, also the railroad station, were named in his honor.
