She was born in Pennsylvania and lived to be thirty-five years of age. After her death Israel wedded Nellie McMillen. He was a chair-maker by trade and carried on that business for a number of years in Fredericktown, but after his second marriage he located on a small farm in Middlebury township. His last days, however, were passed in Richland county, where he died at the age of seventy years. He was a member of the Disciples church and took an active part in church work, doing all in his power to extend the influence of the cause.
