General Notes: Husband - John M. Keichline


He received his education in part at the schools of the locality in which his father lived, attending for a time the Normal School at Rebersburg, and then the Boalsburg Academy. Later he was engaged in teaching school, and then read law in the office of Bush & Yocum at Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. He was admitted to the Bar in 1876, and located at Bellefonte, where he then followed his profession with that success. For some fifteen years or more he filled the office of tax collector for Bellefonte, and for three terms-the years 1884-'85-'86-served as overseer of the poor. He was a most trusted and careful public servant. In 1889 the press, in referring to his candidacy and official relations, remarked: "At the request of the citizens of the town, irrespective of party, Mr. John M. Keichline has consented to be a candidate for re-election to the position he has so acceptably filled for the past twelve years. No community has ever been fa-vored with a more gentlemanly, careful and successful collector of taxes than Mr. Keichline has proven himself to be, and our citizens without regard to political belief, religious opinion, color, class, creed or condition will be glad to have an opportunity of continuing him in the position he now holds. It is to the interest of the town, to the interest of every tax payer that they do so."
In politics he was a Democrat. He was a member of Centre Lodge No. 153, I. O. O. F., a member of the Encampment No. 72, I. O. O. F., of Bellefonte, Pennsylvania, and a member of K. G. E., Bellefonte Castle No. 357.
