General Notes: Husband - George B. Haines

---

As soon as he was old enough he began to learn the tanner's trade under his father, work of various kinds being assigned him, but his education was fair for his time, although it was obtained in the common schools of Miles township, and in the Rebersburg Normal School, which was then in existence, he was licensed to teach, but never taught. He lived at home with his parents until the time of his marriage, but never entirely completed the trade of a tanner, although he was sufficiently familiar with it to perform work in almost any department.
After his marriage, he located on his father's farm in Brush Valley, and followed agriculture for eighteen years; in the spring of 1888 he re­moved to Rebersburg, where he occupied the old Burkert homestead, which he greatly im­proved, remodeling the house and erecting a new barn and other buildings. After the death of his father, he and his brother-in-law were ap­pointed executors to the estate. In addition to his home in Rebersburg he had 200 acres of farming land. He and his wife were leading members of the Lutheran Church, and he was a trustee of that society.
