General Notes: Husband - Alfred Hayes


He was educated at Lewisburg, Union County, Pennsylvania, graduating from the university on August 18, 1855. After nine months' service in the institution, which afterward became the Lewisburg National Bank, he began the study of law under G. F. Miller, Esq., continuing his course at the Harvard Law School, and finally completing his work as a student under the direction of John C. Bullitt, Esq., of Philadelphia. He was admitted to practice in the District Court of Philadelphia, and the Courts of Common Pleas and Quarter Sessions of the same city and county on May 12, 1860, after which, on account of failure of health, he returned to Lewisburg. In 1861 he practiced law in company with S. H. Orwig, Esq., in Union County. In August, 1862, he enlisted as first sergeant in Company E, 42d P. V. I., in the Civil war, but was discharged in November of the same year on account of sickness. Having been elected district attorney of Union County in the autumn of 1862, he continued in that office from term to term until 1876, when he resigned to become a member of the Assembly. He served in the latter capacity during the sessions of 1877 and 1878, and during a subsequent session in 1889. After his retirement from that post of duty he practiced of law at Lewisburg.
