Children

General Notes: Husband - Jefferson Samuel Pawling


He was reared at the old family homestead, where he assisted in the chores from boyhood. Until the age of fourteen he attended the neighboring school in winter but, having completed the course of study offered, he entered Central Pennsylvania College at New Berlin, and spent one year. At seventeen he began teaching school, and after one term in White Deer township, he taught eight years in Kelly township. During this time he gave much attention to the work of the farm, and owing to his father's enfeebled health, he finally gave up teaching in order to care for the home interests more thoroughly. His political sympathies were with the Republican party, and he was active in local affairs, holding the office of assessor for three years. He took a keen interest in educational matters, serving a two-years' term as school director. His own early training was supplemented by a wide course of reading, and in 1890 he graduated from the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle. In religious faith he was a Lutheran.
