General Notes: Husband - Jeremiah M. "Jerry" Yeager


At the age of ten, he began to work in the flour-mill at Yeagertown, Pennsylvania, which his father had purchased in 1842. In 1857, the old mill, which had stood for more than sixty years, was torn down, and a new mill was erected, with J. M. Yeager as miller and proprietor.
