General Notes: Husband - Joseph Kreamer


He was born near Pine Grove, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, whence when two years old he was brought by his parents to Centre County, they locating at what became known as Kreamerville. His elementary education was received in the common schools near his home, and for a time he was a student in "Wolf's Store school." When he was sixteen years of age his father died, and the year following he left school, completing his education with a short course in the Muncy high school. Returning home, he took charge of the farm which his father had left him, and although quite young was very successful. Being of an amiable disposition, he naturally found many who would help him in various ways, either by their advice or security when buying horses, stock, etc. He continued the operation of the farm until his death, at the ripe old age of eighty years. He was a liberal, kind-hearted gentleman, a true friend, and lost many thousands of dollars by going security for others. He was a consistent member of the Lutheran Church, to which he was a generous contributor. Politically he was an ardent Democrat, and was well posted on the questions and issues of the day.
