General Notes: Husband - David Foster Milliken


He was an industrious farmer, and to him the old family homestead descended, and remained his home during his entire life. Early in life he connected himself with the East Kishacoquillas church, and remained a steadfast supporter of the same. He held pronounced anti-slavery views, and in the dark days preceding the Civil war, was frequently assailed on account of the same. At the outbreak of the war he was rejected as a volunteer on account of physical infirmities, yet procured and sent a substitute to the front. When Lee invaded Pennsylvania, he was one of the first to offer his services to the state to assist in repulsing the rebel advance.
