General Notes: Husband - Emanuel Brallier


He was a shoemaker by trade, one of those hardy pioneers who with his kit of tools and his rifle traveled from farm to farm, from county to county, making shoes for the farmers, as he made his way through what was then a wilderness. His earnings were not large, but neither were his expenses, and in time he had acquired sufficient funds to purchase land of his own. In 1839 he bought a tract in the wilderness near Belsano, Black Lick township, Cambria County, Pennsylvania, and there settled with his wife and children, some of them born at Lidy Ore Mines, the former family home. As soon as settled in their new home, he began the work of clearing the land he had purchased, and in course of time had one hundred and seventy-five acres under cultivation. He was a member of the German Baptist church.
