General Notes: Husband - Charles Bromley
After the death of his father, he lived with the family of Henry Chaffee, of Ve-nango County, Pennsylvania, for two and one-half years. He then lived with Samuel Kee, of Lake Township, Mercer County, and attended school until 1862, when he selected a permanent home with William Jeffrey, of Jackson Township, with whom he remained until twenty-one years old. He then took a course in the Iron City Commer-cial College, and in the autumn of 1872 engaged in the general merchandise busi-ness with Samuel North, Sr., at North's Mills, subsequently with G. W. Worrell. He suffered great loss by the panic, and finally retired from the business and worked for a while in mills and on farms. In 1879 he was employed by D. L. Nisbet. He was a member of the I. O. O. F. at Jackson Centre, and he and wife were members of the Cool Spring Presbyterian Church. He was a Republican. [HMC 1888, 1008]
