General Notes: Husband - Daniel Zimmerman


When a young man he removed from Berks County, Pennsylvania, to Westmoreland County. When he came to New Salem, he purchased a lot just opposite the grist-mill, on which he erected a house, and in which he carried on his trade of tailoring, the first in the place. He was a strong advocate of the common school system adopted in 1834-35, and for which he fought at the polls and elsewhere to establish. He was identified with the early temperance movements of the day, and was the first man in his neighborhood to raise a building without the use of whiskey. In 1830 he removed to Mercer County, but a short time afterwards removed to Allegheny township, Westmoreland County, to a farm he had bought, and on which he died.
