General Notes: Husband - Samuel Louer


He and his wife were married in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, after which they started for a new home, in a four-horse wagon, and camped each night, by the way, until they reached the place where they desired to settle. He was unfortunate in the purchase of his first farm, a tract of 160 acres, then situated in Mercer County, as the man from whom he bought had no clear title to the land. They then moved from the first farm to one two miles south, where he bought 160 acres, right in the woods, on which he built a log cabin and spent the remainder of his life engaged in clearing and improving his property.

His first wife died, leaving five children, after which he married again, and four children were born to the second union.
