General Notes: Husband - James Mitchell


He remained on the home farm, a tract of 231 acres, which he purchased in 1865, until 1871, following farming and stock raising. He was interested also in surveying and lumbering. He had country school advantages in his youth, supplemented by three months attendance in the Clearfield schools. In 1871 he built and took possession of a comfortable residence at Clearfield and became identified with the leading interests of the city. He was one of the organizers of the Clearfield National Bank and filled the office of vice president until 1911, when made president. In politics he was a Republican and in 1888 he was elected to the office of county treasurer.
