General Notes: Husband - Aaron Welch


He passed his early life on the home farm, and received his edu-cation at the local log schoolhouse. He remained on the home place some years after his marriage, and then moved to West Finley township, Washington County, but soon after purchased a farm in Cross Creek township. This he sold, and bought a farm in Hopewell township, where he remained till spring; then traded for another place in the same township, where he re-mained but a short time, and then moved to Inde-pendence township. Some time afterward he pur-chased a farm near West Middletown, where he made a permanent home.
He was first a Whig and then a Repub-lican. He took an active part in local politics, and served his township in various capacities. In re-ligion he was first a member of the Associate Re-formed Church, afterward uniting with the United Presbyterian Society, in which he was an elder for years. He was actively interested in church mat-ters, giving liberally to all worthy enterprises.
