General Notes: Husband - Rev. Lyman Pierce Streator


He was born in Portage county, Ohio, and was educated for the ministry of the Christian Church. In 1842, being then twenty-two years of age, he came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he preached for a time at Pancake, and then moved into Washington borough in 1870. In the meantime, in 1859, the family had proceeded to May's Lick, Kentucky, where they remained until the breaking out of the Civil war, when they returned to Washington County. At Lone Pine he founded an academy, which he kept for some time. In 1866 he removed to Philadelphia, where he preached for six months; thence went to Braddocks Field, Pennsylvania, where, in the capacity of State Evangelist, he worked for the State Missionary Society. In May, 1867, he returned to Washington County, and became a resident of South Strabane township. Politically Mr. Streator was for many years a consistent Democrat, but later he was standing in the van of the Prohibition party; socially, he was a Knight Templar.
