General Notes: Husband - Samuel Rogers Banks

---

His education was acquired in the public schools of Butler County, Pennsylvania, where his boyhood and early youth were passed, and where his spare time was spent in assisting his father in his agricultural labors. He was of an intensely patriotic nature and at the time of the Civil War enlisted in Company M, Fourteenth Pennsylvania Volunteer Cavalry, and was subsequently transferred to Company F. While he was in a number of engagements, he was fortunate to escape without a wound. He was, however, twice taken a prisoner, being exchanged the first time. At the close of the war he returned to the farm of his father in Butler County, then made an extended trip to the West, and after being occupied for some time with oil interests near Parker, Clarion County, he decided to engage in farming. In 1879 he came to Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and there purchased a farm of one hundred and ninety-six acres in Brighton township. He erected large and improved modern farm buildings, and employed the latest scientific methods in the cultivation of his property on which he resided until his death. His political allegiance was given to the Democratic party, and he and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church. He served his township for a considerable length of time as a school director, being always greatly interested in the cause of education.
After his death, his widow continued to reside on the farm, which she managed with a very creditable amount of executive ability.
