General Notes: Husband - David Hitchings

---

Beginning at the age of two years his home was in Bradford township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, and in the schools of Shiloh obtained a good practical edu­cation. Since starting out in life for himself he followed agricultural pursuits, and met with a fair degree of success in his undertakings. In May, 1863, he purchased from Isaac Lines a farm of 106 acres, which he placed under a high state of cultivation and im­proved with good and substantial buildings.
In politics, he sup­ported the principles of the Democratic party, and served his fellow citizens in the capacity of school director, supervisor of his township, and assessor for five years.
