General Notes: Husband - Richard Howe


He came to the United States with his parents in 1832 and was educated in the public schools of Old Brighton, Beaver County, Pennsylvania. Like his father he took up the trade of brick laying, but later branched out into the contracting business, in which he was very successful. During the greater part of his life he lived in New Brighton, and while he was a staunch supporter of the Republican party, he never desired to hold public office. His religious affiliations were with the Radical Methodist Church. During the Civil War he volunteered his services, but was not accepted because of a broken ankle.


General Notes: Wife - Sarah Peatling

from Corby, Lincolnshire, England

She did not like the life on a farm, and came to New Brighton, Beaver County, in her girlhood and worked there before her marriage.
