General Notes: Husband - Peter Lias

---

He was one of the pioneers in what is now Wayne township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, coming there from Huntingdon County, and settling midway between Dayton and Echo. He bought 228 acres of land, on which he built a log house, and cleared off the timber. This continued to be his home the rest of his life. The name at one time was spelled Elias, but was changed, probably in the lifetime of Peter, to Lias.
