General Notes: Husband - Joseph P. Keibler


He moved to Cowanshannock township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where he bought 130 acres of land and operated it in conjunction with working at his trade, blacksmithing. He built a shop on his property and labored industriously. When his country had need of his services he enlisted in a Pennsylvania regiment, serving from 1861 until the close of the Civil War. As he advanced in years, he became prominent in his township, serving three terms as a justice of the peace, as well as in various township offices. He was also secretary of the Armstrong Mutual Fire Insurance Company. A consistent member of the United Presbyterian Church, he served as elder from early manhood until his death, which occurred on his farm, when he was sixty-five years old.
