General Notes: Husband - Ephraim Morrow

---

He was reared on his father's farm, and after attending the subscription schools of his native township, he took an academic course, and taught two terms of school, after which he learned the trade of carpenter. On May 15, 1861, he enlisted in Co. K, 13th Penna. Reserves, and was transferred to the U. S. signal corps, in which he served one and one-half years, and then was in General Banks' Red river expedition in Louisiana. He was afterwards sent back to the U. S. signal corps, and placed in charge of a signal station on the coast of North Carolina, where he remained until he was mustered out of service, May 18, 1864. Returning to Pennsylvania, he went into the oil region, where he followed carpentering. In 1874 he moved to Dayton, Armstrong County, which he then made his home. On October 16, 1889, he was appointed by President Harrison as postmaster of Dayton. He was a stanch republican, and in 1880 was appointed census-taker of the borough of Dayton and Wayne township. He was a member of J. Ed. Turk Post, No. 321, G. A. R., Union Veteran Legion, and Dayton Lodge, No. 400, Jr. O. U. A. M., of Dayton.
