General Notes: Husband - Daniel Markel

---

He was reared and educated in his native town­ship, where he was engaged in farming. In 1879 he married and located on a farm in Forward township, Butler County. He resided there until 1889, and then removed to Evans City. He was one of the organizers of the Rough Run Manufacturing Company, Limited. He and his wife were members of the English Reformed church, in which body he filled the office of trustee. He was a stanch Democrat, served as burgess of Evans City, and also in the borough council.

He en­gaged in farming on the home farm, which consisted of 150 acres and later formed a part of his estate. In 1889, in order to secure better educational advantages for his chil­dren, he moved to Evans City, and some­time later engaged in the hardware busi­ness in partnership with L. N. Burry, under the firm name of Burry & Markel. In February, 1905, the business was incor­porated under the name of the Burry and Markel Company, and Daniel Markel served as president until his death.
