General Notes: Husband - Reuben Dovenspike


He was reared to the sturdy discipline of the old home­stead farm, in the work and management of which he early became associated with his father. After his marriage he and his wife set up housekeeping in West Millville, where he owned considerable property and in the close vicinity of which place he had a large farm. He was identified with agricultural pursuits during the greater portion of his active career and for a time prior to his father's demise ran the latter's farm for him. In his political con­victions he was a stalwart Republican and for a number of years held the office of constable.
