General Notes: Husband - Alfred A. Dale

---

Bellefonte, Centre Co, PA

He was born and reared on his father's farm, where his early years and young manhood was passed in the manner of the general farmer's son. His early schooling was received in the common schools of the neighborhood, and in a private school held on the Dr. Hammil homestead. He was prepared for college at the Boalsburg Acade­my, and was graduated from Pennsylvania Col­lege, Gettysburg, in 1874. Immediately after­ward he began the study of the law, under the late D. S. Keller, of Bellefonte, and was admitted to the Bar of Centre County at the August term of court, in 1876, “Al Dale,” as he was familiarly called, took quite an active part in politics, and in 1892 was one of the Republican nominees for the General Assembly; but with the rest of that ticket he was defeated at the election in the Democratic land-slide of that year. The home paper in commenting on Mr. Dale's nomination said: “In A. A. Dale the voters of Centre county have a man whose ancestors were among the very earliest settlers of Centre county. Mr. Dale was born here, raised on the farm, and always took a deep interest and active part in all that pertained to the best interests of the county. He is, without doubt, one of the best qualified men for the Legislature that has been nominated in the county for years.”
