General Notes: Husband - Conrad Shuey


He attended the subscription schools of his day and then devoted his attention entirely to farming, coming to own two farms in Hempfield township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. In 1886 he retired from active life and resided near Greensburg. He was a member of the Reformed church beginning in 1834.

He was born on his father's farm, two miles south of Harrison City, in Hempfield township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. He was educated in the subscription schools and early adopted the life of a farmer. On the occasion of his marriage a farm, later owned by his son, Henry David Shuey, was given him, and on this property, situated one mile north of Greensburg, he resided during the greater portion of his life. He was also the owner of another farm in his native township, and about eight years before his death purchased and removed to a residence near town. He was a Republican in politics and in 1834 united with the First Reformed church, remaining a member to the close of his life.
