General Notes: Husband - Rev. Wilford Avery Power Eberhart

---

When young he learned the tailor's trade, but soon quit the business and attended school, where he made surveying and civil engineering a specialty. This profession he followed twenty-three years. In 1856 he was admitted as a member of the Erie Conference of the M. E. Church, and served in the ministry until September 1, 1861, when he was chosen Chaplain of the First Pennsylvania light artillery. In 1862 he was obliged to resign on account of disease contracted in the service.
He moved from Pennsylvania to Iowa in 1871, and resided at Union, Hardin County, where he was county surveyor for some years. At the same time he was doing work in the church and ministry. He supplied in the regular pastorate of the Upper Iowa Conference of the M. E. Church, Liscomb, Cedar Falls circuit and Union charges.
