General Notes: Husband - Roswell Breed

---

He was reared on the home farm at Breedtown, Venango County, PA, remaining there up to the time of his marriage. A year or two later he returned to the place and took charge of its cultivation, buying out the shares of the other heirs to the property, in accordance with his father's wishes. In his day it comprised seventy-five acres, which he improved systematically, building a substantial barn in 1867. He was the last of his generation to remain in the neighborhood. A man of active mind and keenly interested in the general welfare, he participated to some extent in public affairs, serving as a member of the school board. [CAB, 914]
