General Notes: Husband - Joseph Foringer


He died when seventy-three years old.
He was born within one mile of Kaylor, Armstrong County, PA, and with the exception of a period of three months in Ohio passed his life in or about that town. He was a man of excellent judgment and great force of character, and although he had but thirteen months of regular schooling became a legal adviser for people all over his section of the county. He was the second merchant at Kay­lor, a member of the firm of Foringer, Graft & Company, and later sole proprietor of the business. When he moved to New Philadel­phia, Ohio, he sold a quarter interest in his store to Jacob W. Meyer and another quarter to W. S. Foringer, and the business was car­ried on as Foringer & Company until 1887, when he bought back these interests and con­tinued to conduct it alone under his own name until his death. After his death the business was owned by Mrs. Joseph For­inger until 1903, when it was sold to the Alle­gheny Supply Company. From 1840 to 1867 he also ran a carding machine. Before he succeeded in having the Kaylor post office established, about 1879 or 1880, he had the mail brought to his store and there distributed. Kaylor was served by the Star route from Brady's Bend until 1884, after which it was on the Star route from East Brady. For a number of years Joseph Foringer was a Republican in politics, but for the last twelve years of his life he was a Prohibitionist. At times he served his township officially.
