General Notes: Husband - William West


He inherited from his father the occupation of a farmer. This was uncongenial, however, and his fondness for tools and skill in their use led him to give the greater portion of his time to the making of useful articles, although he had not learned any mechanical trade. He was educated in the Friends boarding school in Birmingham, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, and in Burlington, New Jersey. He was a birthright member of the Society of Friends, as were his ancestors. His life was quiet and uneventful.
