General Notes: Husband - William A. Fleming


He was reared on his father's farm, and attended the subscription school of the period for a few weeks during the winter seasons. At the age of seventeen years he commenced life for himself as a farm laborer, at ten dollars per month. When twenty-one years of age he returned home to assist his widowed mother in carrying on the homestead farm, and remained with her for the ensuing three years. After marriage, he settled on a farm in Parker township, but later removed to Maple Furnace, where he spent eleven years in the employ of M. S. Adams. He afterwards located at Brady's Bend, and filled the office of market house clerk for six years. At the expiration of this time he returned to his farm in Butler County, removed to Petrolia in 1879, and thereafter resided in that borough. In 1890 he was elected justice of the peace, and in 1891 was chosen burgess. He was connected with Oil City Lodge, F. & A. M., and was a member of the Meth-odist Episcopal church, in which he served as class leader forty-four years.
