General Notes: Husband - Samuel E. Waugaman


He passed his early years at the old Waugaman homestead in Valley township, Armstrong County, PA, was married there, and a short time afterward moved from that place to Pine township, where he was engaged as teamster for lumbering concerns. Remaining there four months, he went to Cowanshannock, in Rayburn township, where he was located for about one year, engaged in farming and team­ing. He then removed to Manor township, Armstrong county, where he remained a year, follow­ing farming, thence going to Kittanning. He worked at a furnace there for a year and a half, at the end of that time moving back to Rayburn township, where he lived on the Finley farm for one year, during which time he mined and farmed. He then went back to Kittanning borough, where he worked at the furnace for six months. The mill closing he moved to Reynoldsville, where he resided for eighteen months, working in a sawmill and mining coal. Again he went to Kittanning, where he was employed at mining for the Kittanning Iron Company one year. His next move was to Bethel township, where he farmed for Mrs. Reynolds, being thus engaged for four years and four months. Thence he moved to the Chaplin farm in Manor township, where he followed general farming and dairying for four years, and from that place moved to a home in Rayburn township. After a resi­dence of six years there he took his family out to Iowa, where he settled on a farm near Eddyville, with his brother William A. Wauga­man. He farmed there for seven months, and returning to Pennsylvania settled in Valley township, buying a tract of ten acres where he followed truck farming for the next three years. He then returned to the home he had previously occupied in Rayburn township, which was originally the Judge Nulton farm and afterward bought by Simeon Truby, a cousin of Mr. Waugaman's mother, Rebecca (Truby) Waugaman. There Mr. Waugaman acquired 220 acres of valu­able land, where he carried on general farm­ing pursuits and dairying. He was elected auditor of the township. He voted with the Republi­can party on political issues. He was a member of the Reformed Church.
