General Notes: Husband - Andrew Emerick


He was born in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, and came with his parents to Butler County when about ten years old. He was one of the founders of Saxonburg, and broke the first ground and erected the first dwelling on the site of that village. He cleared and improved two farms near Saxonburg, and a third in Clearfield township. In 1851 he purchased a farm in Summit township, resided there until 1856, then sold out and removed to Penn township, where he lived until 1885. In that year he removed to Summit, and made his home with his son John until his death.
He was an adherent of the Republican party, and in religious faith, was a member of the Lutheran church.
