General Notes: Husband - Thomas H. Falls

---

He was reared on a farm, and followed this business, in connection with stock dealing. He resided on the old homestead of his father, on the northeast corner of Mill and Falls streets, New Castle, Pennsylvania. It was one of the most delightful locations in the city. The "Old Homestead" stood a few feet east of the spot where stood the old "Stewart house," in which his father, Thomas, began housekeeping. Just a few steps north of his residence an unfailing spring poured forth its limpid waters in copious quantities. This spring, as also the "Old Homestead," was bequeathed to Mr. Falls by his father.
