General Notes: Husband - Amos Dawson


After his marriage he and his wife for a time made their home on the old family homestead, later moving to a triangular tract of land, one hundred acres in extent, west of Little Beaver creek, in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, near the Ohio state boundary line. He was an ardent Democrat, sincere and earnest in his efforts for the advancement of that party. He met his death in Little Beaver creek, being drowned while washing a flock of sheep.
