General Notes: Husband - Charles Geibel


He acquired his education in schools in his native country, and at the age of twelve years accompanied his parents to America. As a young lad in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, he worked in a cotton factory, and when his parents removed to the farm in Butler County, at which time he was a young man, he assisted in the cultivation of this property. After his marriage he removed to Pittsburgh, worked four years in a cotton factory, then returned to the farm of his father, and rented a part of it. This was fifty acres of woodland, and Mr. Geibel and his wife cleared the land and erected the necessary buildings themselves. They improved the place in every possible manner, and there reared their family. Later Mr. Geibel purchased the old homestead, at Carbon Center, and as his four sons grew to manhood and married, he presented each of them with a farm. In 1876 he removed to Springdale, a suburb of Butler, Pennsylvania, lived there three years, then made his home in Butler until his death. He had retired from active pursuits some years prior to his death. He was an active worker in religious matters, and was the leading spirit among the laymen in starting the movement for building the German Roman Catholic church at Carbon Center, and assisted materially in the construction of it. In political matters he was a Democrat.
