General Notes: Husband - Nathaniel Walker


He was born on the family homestead in Cranberry township, Butler county, Pennsylvania, and there grew to manhood. In 1846 he removed to Sharon, Mercer county, and the following year moved to Butler, where he engaged in the manufacture of brick, purchasing his brother David's yard, which business he continued many years. He was elected treasurer of Butler County in 1862, and also filled the office of justice of the peace for a long period. He was one of the early Abolitionists of the county, and maintained a station on the Underground Railroad for runaway slaves. He was a leading member of the Presbyterian church. In politics, he was first a Whig and afterwards a Republican.
