General Notes: Husband - Judge Joseph Pomeroy

---

He learned merchandizing in the store of Stephen Culbertson at Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, and afterward conducted a store at Concord for three years for his uncle, David Nevin. With his brother, William R., he purchased this store in 1829. In 1835 he bought his brother's interest, but in 1842 he entered into partnership with William R. and John M. Pomeroy, and they erected a tannery near Concord. This partnership was dissolved in 1847, Joseph Pomeroy taking over the tannery, which he retained until his death. In 1851 he removed to Academia, Juniata county, where he remained. He acquired a large estate for that period. In politics he was active as a Whig and Republican. He was county auditor for Franklin County, 1833-36, and a member of the Legislature in 1841. In 1856 he was the first Republican candidate for Congress in the district of which Juniata and Franklin counties were a part, but was beaten by Wilson Reilly, the Democratic candidate. In 1861 he was chosen an Associate Judge of Juniata County, being the only candidate on the Republican ticket that was elected. He was a man of great force of character and unusual business ability.
