General Notes: Husband - Dr. Henry C. DeWolf


He was a pioneer physician of Butler, Pennsylvania.
He was a native of Hartford, Connecticut, and came to Butler borough in 1817 or 1818. He was still a young man when he located in Butler. Like Judge Moore in legal circles, he laid down a style of dress and manners, which however elaborate on the first part and severe on the second, he found few to imitate. In 1821 he was chosen trustee of the academy; in 1825, treasurer of the borough, and filled many other local offices during his long residence there. He, next to John Sullivan, led the brick building enterprises of 1825, by erecting on the site of Mr. Balph's store, the first brick dwelling in the town, part of which was removed in 1890.
