General Notes: Husband - Robert Cauffield
Westmoreland Co, PA
He was educated in the subscription schools, the school term lasting just three months in the year, during which he had to travel many miles, back and forth, between the school building and his home. He worked for his father on the latter's farm and in the flour mill, and also drove a team for the Hon. John Covode, and for a time was employed as boatman on the Pennsylvania canal. He held several public offices, including tax collector and school director.
The last farm owned by him was the old David Hutchinson place, which adjoined the property owned by J. Calvin Smith. Mr. Cauffield bought this farm in 1870. In connection with his farm he operated a valuable coal bank situated on his property.
