General Notes: Husband - James Allison Crawford

---

He obtained only such an education as the subscription schools of his day afforded, and was reared on the home farm in Wayne township, Clinton County, Pennsylvania. When a young man he removed to the present site of Charleston, Pine Creek township, where he purchased a small tannery and engaged in its operation until 1837, when he bought the Duncan farm in that township, improving and cultivating the same for ten years. In 1847 he removed with his family to Lock Haven and embarked in mer-chandising, which business he successfully carried on until 1855, when he sold out and returned to his farm in Pine Creek township. In 1862 he rented the place and again moved to Lock Haven, where he engaged in lumbering a short time and lived retired until his death. He and his family were consistent members of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics he was a stalwart Democrat, but no politician in the sense of office-seeking.
