General Notes: Husband - James Miller Allison


His education was obtained in the public schools and under the instruction of the masters at Frankfort and Hookstown academies. Becoming a farmer, he was employed for two years on the farm of his uncle in Hanover township, in 1878 purchasing a farm of about one hundred acres in the same township. This he improved with a new dwelling and barn, in 1893 replacing the house he had first erected with one even more substantial and commodious. He conducted general operations upon his large and fertile tract. Although his political preferences incline toward the Democratic party, most of his political action is taken without regard to party or faction, and he was several times the choice of his neighbors for local office. With his wife he belonged to the United Presbyterian Church.
