General Notes: Husband - Peter Dorman


He was a native of Union County, Pennsylvania, and remained there throughout his life, following the cooper's trade in his shop near Hartleton. His industry brought a comfortable living, but he never accumulated much property, as he had a large family to support. In early years he was a Whig, and later he became a Republican, while in religious faith he was a devout Lutheran. He died at the age of eighty-two years, and his wife also attained an advanced age. They had fourteen children.
