General Notes: Husband - Joseph P. Gilliland
He was born on the old family homestead, and there grew to manhood. He chose agriculture for his life's calling and began on a place about two miles northeast of Polk, Venango County, Pennsylvania, in the year 1842. He added to his original farm from time to time, and until he owned two hundred and fifty acres of valuable land. Mr. Gilliland made farming and stock raising a business, and as an agriculturist ranked among the successful men of the township. He was a representative Democrat of the old school and took pride in the fact that his first and last presidential ballots were cast in opposition to William Henry and Benjamin Harrison, respectively.
