General Notes: Husband - Wesley B. Coleman


He received only the advantages of a common school education. He lived on the home place, and owned 138 acres of land, of which 100 were in cultivation. From 1892 to 1902 he was in the sawmill and lumber business in Indiana and Jefferson counties, and for six years he conducted a mercantile business in Millstone, Elk County. However, the greater part of his attention was given to his home property. In 1908 he erected a modern twelve-room, two and a half story residence, which was equipped with all modern conveniences, including gas light and hot water, and in 1912 he erected a modern barn to replace the one he had built in 1908. He specialized in raising draft horses, graded Jersey and Holstein cattle and Poland-China and Chester White hogs, and "Hillside Dairy Farm," as his place was widely known, turned out stock that brought top-notch prices in the markets. It was located near Goodville station.
