B ERTEL POULSEN. Among the repre- sentative and prominent business men of Howard borough, Centre county, is numbered the gentleman whose name introduces this sketch -a member of the well-known firm of B. Poul- sen & Co., who own and operate a sawmill and are engaged in the manufacture of handles, spokes, etc., at Centre Hall. A business man of known reliability, he has the confidence and re- spect of all with whom he comes in contact.
Mr. Poulsen was born January 25, 1857. in Ravehede, near Aalborg, Denmark, a son of Poul Christian and Maren (Bertelsdatter) Neil- sen, who were also natives of that country, where they still reside. During his active busi- ness career the father engaged in farming and speculating, but is now living a retired life. In religious belief he is a Lutheran. He is a son of Neils Poulsen and Maren Larsdatter, who spent their entire lives in Demark. The maternal grandparents of our subject were Bertel Chris- tensen and Anna Poulsdatter. Six children were
born to Poul C. Neilsen and his estimable wife- three sons and three daughters, namely: Amalia, now the wife of Jens Peter Jensen, a stonemason and farmer of the northern part of Denmark; Neils, who owns and operates a planing, handle and spoke mill at Round Hill, Va .; Christine, wife of Neils Peter Neilsen, a merchant of Den- mark; Bertel, subject of this sketch; Marie, wife of Christian Jeppesen, a school teacher of west- ern Denmark; and Lars, who is in partnership with his brother at Round Hill, Virginia.
During the boyhood and youth of Bertel Poulsen he attended the schools of his native land until fourteen years of age, and assisted in the work of the home farm for two years longer, when he began learning the carpenter's trade. At the age of nineteen he emigrated to the New World, first locating at Irvine, Warren Co., Penn., where for three years he was engaged in the manufacture of handles and spokes, and then returned to the land of his nativity. During the eight months he remained there he attended high school, knowing how essential to a suc- cessful business career is a good education. On again coming to America, in the following spring, Mr. Poulsen took up his residence in Titusville, Penn., where, through the summer, he was em- ployed in a cabinet factory, and the next year worked for K. G. Shutt at the carpenter's trade in Irvine. Subsequently he came to Howard, Centre county, where he erected a plant for the manufacture of handles and spokes, and success- fully engaged in that business there until the fall of 1896, when he removed to Centre Hall and established a similar manufactory. He is an en- terprising, wide-awake business man, thoroughly abreast with the times, and his straightforward course commends him to the confidence of all.
In Howard, August 20, 1884, Mr. Poulsen married Miss Lena K. Reber, and they have three children: Victor H., born May 26, 1885: Clara K., born February 24. 1887; and Myra R., born July 27, 1890. Mrs. Poulsen was born in Howard township, Centre county, October 23. 1862, and is a daughter of Theodore L. and Re- becca E. (Kunes) Reber, also natives of Centre county, the former born in Howard in 1836, and the latter in Eagleville. She died in July, 1863; the father is now a resident of Santa Fe. N. M .. where he is engaged in the manufacture of soda water. In 186; he left Centre county, where he had followed the occupation of farming, carpen- tering and boating, and also engaged in the meat business in Milesburg. By his first marriage he had three children, one of whom died in infancy, the others being James O., who died when young; and Lena K., wife of our subject. After the
416

death of their mother, Mr. Reber wedded Re- becca J. Rogers, a native of Bellefonte, Penn., and a daughter of William Rogers. His parents were Samuel and Mary A. (Askey) Reber, who spent their entire lives in Centre county, where the father followed tailoring and farming. The maternal grandparents of Mrs. Poulsen, John and Nancy (Gardner) Kunes, were also natives of Centre county, where they made their home upon a farm.
Mr. Poulsen is a keen, practical man, well gifted with mental and physical vigor. In poli- tics he casts his vote for the candidates of the Republican party, and, although he does not take an active part in public life, he conscientiously performs his duties as a good citizen.
W ILLIAM ELLIS IRWIN, a well-known progressive business man of Philipsburg. Centre county, prominently identified with insur- ance interests, was born February 23, 1834, in Clearfield county, where his family have long held a noted place. Until the age of fifteen Mr. Irwin attended the academy in Clearfield borough, and then, finding employment at a sawmill, he began the serious work of gaining a livelihood. After a time he entered the Howard Iron Works, in Cen- tre county, where his uncle was iron master, spending ten years in the employ of that firm.
The Civil war breaking out, Mr. Irwin re- sponded to his country's need, on September 13, 1862, enlisting in Company L, 5th P. V. C., aft- erward reorganized as Company E. His regi- ment was, after three months' drilling at Carlisle Barracks in Pennsylvania, assigned to the Army of the Cumberland, later to the Army of the Tennessee, and Mr. Irwin took part in a number of important battles, including those of Antietam and Murfreesboro, or Stone River. He spent one year in the field, and was then detailed in the quartermaster's department, with which he was connected until May 1, 1866. While at Nashville, Tenn., in 1864, he voted for Abraham Lincoln.
On his return home Mr. Irwin engaged in a general mercantile business at Philipsburg, which he gave up in 1875 to enter the lumber trade. His connection with the fire insurance dates back to 1887, and at present he represents various well-established companies in fire, life, plate glass, and accident. He is a charter member of the Steam Heat Co., of the Electric Light Co.,. and of the " Philipsburg Water Co."-in fact, is interested in all enterprises calculated to benefit the city and community at large.
As a citizen his intelligence and genial man- ners have won him many sincere friends. He
takes great interest in school affairs, and has been a director for many years. It is said that some one lately told Gov. Hastings that William E. Irwin, and another in the county, "ought to receive a life pension for their activity on the school board." His political allegiance was from the first given to the Republican party, and he is still an unwavering supporter of its principles. Socially, he has been a Freemason since 1868. affiliated with Moshannon Lodge No. 391, of Philipsburg, has filled all the chairs as a Master Mason, and was secretary of the lodge sixteen years.
On June 15, 1869, Mr. Irwin married Miss Susannah H. Tussey, a native of Canoe Valley, Huntingdon Co., Penn., and they have three children: (1) Frank F. married Miss Cora Min- niam Row, and has one child-William Ellis Row Irwin; (2) Dorothy Harnish is the wife of C. B. Holly, and has one child-Harold Irwin Holly; and (3) H. Ruth is at home.
As has been said, Mr. Irwin is a descendant of a pioneer family of Clearfield county. His great-grandfather, John Irwin, Sr., came from Ireland in 1774, accompanying his widowed mother and two brothers, Matthew and Nathan- iel, all three of whom located in Washington county, Penn., after a short residence in Pitts- burg. John Irwin, Sr., settled in Centre county, and although he was by trade a shoemaker he followed agriculture until his death, which oc- curred April 29, 1829. He was married in Ches- ter county, Penn., to Miss Sarah Iddings, and had four children: William, who died in Centre county; John, Jr., mentioned below; Isabella, who died at the age of sixty, and Sarah, who died in 1865.
John Irwin, Jr., our subject's grandfather, came to Centre county as a young man, from his early home in Chester county, and there located and improved a farm; he also manufactured shoes at Bellefonte for a time. He was married in Centre county to Mary Fisher, daughter of William Fisher, a gentleman of large property and great influence in that section, probably of English birth. Nine children were born of this union, as follows: Hannah, who married Will- iam Way; Ellis, who married Hannah Iddings; John, who married Anna Linn; Sarah, who mar- ried Thomas Brooks; William F., who married Susan Antes; Malissa, who married Lewis Hager- inan; James, who married Matilda Trumbell; Martha A., who married James C. Williams; and Mary J., who married Augustus Ryman.
Ellis Irwin, the eldest son of John and Mary (Fisher) Irwin, and father of the subject of this sketch, was born in Bald Eagle Valley, Centre

Co., Penn., near Bellefonte, June 17, 1805, and is still living in good health, with the exception of an affection of the lower limbs which followed an attack of "La Grippe " a few years ago. He was educated at Bellefonte Academy, and spent much of his time in his youth working upon the homestead and in the shoe factory. For four years he carried the United States mail through the mountains on horseback. On January 10, 1827, he married Hannah Iddings, a lady of great intelligence and worth, and a daughter of John and Ann (Carroll) Iddings. On her moth- er's side she was related to Charles Carroll, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independ- ence. Eight children were born of this union: (1) Lewis died in 1882; (2) John F. is a druggist in Clearfield; (3) Mary and (4) Henrietta are at home; (5) William E. is our subject; (6) Joseph R. is a druggist at Curwensville; (7) Malissa died of heart trouble December 11, 1862, aged twen- ty-seven years; and (8) James died January 3, 18.53, of scarlet fever, aged eleven years. In February, 1881, after a wedded life of more than fifty years, Mrs. Ellis Irwin passed to the other world, leaving many mourners outside the fam- ily circle, upon whom the loss fell the heaviest.
The early ancestors of the Irwin family were Quakers, and subsequent generations have held tenaciously to the same beautiful and inspiring faith. Ellis Irwin has always been an adherent of the Society, and among the reforms advocated most zealously by him was that of the abolition of slavery, upon which the Quakers spoke out boldly when others were as yet silent. In po- litical affiliations he was first a Whig, later a Republican, and he gave every possible aid to the Union cause during the Civil war, sending three sons to the field of battle, all of whom re- turned safely. In financial lines he has been an able and successful worker. Soon after his mar- riage he began farming on his own account, and in 1829 moved to Clearfield county, buying a farm at Grampian Hills (now in Penn township), and four years later engaged in the hotel busi- ness at Curwensville, remaining three years. In 1835 he was appointed to the office of prothono- tary, register, recorder, and clerk of the courts in Clearfield, to fill a vacancy, and at the end of the term was elected for a full term of three years. In 1838 he engaged in mercantile busi- ness in Clearfield. In 1840 he was appointed postmaster there; in 1843 he was elected sheriff for a term of three years, and in these as in other positions of public trust he served with ability and faithfulness. In 1850 he purchased a large tract of land in Goshen township, Clear- field county, to which he added until he owned 27
at one time some three thousand acres. This estate he has developed, with energy and judg- ment, with mills, farms and other improvements, and the population of the locality is now so large that a post office, known as Lick Run Mills, was established there mainly through his influence, Since 1872 he has been postmaster at Lick Run Mills.
A CLARK MUSSER, who holds a leading place among the enterprising and promi- nent business men of Millheim, was born there April 22, 1848. His father, J. G. Musser, was born in Gregg township, Centre county, Decem- ber 12, 1820, a son of Philip B. and Elizabeth (Ilgen) Musser, and in the subscription schools held near his home acquired his education, which was principally in the German language. On December 8, 1842, at Millheim, he wedded Miss Julia Hubler, who was born August 15, 1817, a daughter of Adam Hubler, who was for years identified with the milling interests of the county as owner of the Hubler mill, and was killed by falling from a barn that occupied the present site of the residence of Mrs. D. A, Musser.
A short time after his marriage the father of our subject removed to the hotel now conducted by W. S. Musser, having purchased the same from Jacob Widener, and was its host for some years. Prior to thishe had engaged in mercantile pursuits in connection with his brother, W. L. Musser. He was a great hunter and fisher, in which sports he found his greatest pleasure, and in politics he was a stanch Democrat. His death occurred January 12, 1892, that of his wife on February 26, 1884, and the remains of both were interred in the Millheim cemetery. The family of this worthy couple numbered the following children: Ralph M. is a miller of Williamsport, Penn .; Clarence died May 1, 1846; Emma C. is the wife of J. H. Swartz, of Renovo, Penn .; A. Clark is next in order of birth: Charles died February 1, 1852; Mary died February 10, 1854; James B. is a resident of California; and Anna died April 28, 1861.
In the public schools of Millheim the subject proper of this review received his literary educa- tion, his first teacher being George M. Swartz. He continued under the parental roof until he had at- tained his majority, aiding in the support of the family, till, in April, 1869, he entered the shop of B. O. Deininger to learn the trade of mar- ble cutter. At the end of two years and a half, however, he went to Lock Haven, Penn., where he worked for five months, and after his re- turn to Millheim in the spring of 1872, he pur-

chased a third interest in the establishment of Mr. Deininger. Three years later he secured a half interest, and in 1885 became sole owner; but after conducting the business for a short time he sold a half interest to W. K. Alexander, and the firm has since been Musser & Alexander. Their work is first-class in every particular, and, by courte- ous treatment and fair and honorable dealing, they have succeeded in building up a large and lucrative business.
On July 5, 1874, Mr. Musser was married to Miss Margaret C. Kister, of Aaronsburg, Centre county, who was born in that village March 15, 1841, a daughter of Jeremiah and Elizabeth (Mil- ler) Kister. Twelve children have graced their union: Bertha E., a printer of Millheim; Lulu C., at home; Norman Lester; Thomas B. and Frederick W., both deceased; John F .; Grover G .; Lizzie (deceased); Orvis; Paul; May and Claude E.
Jeremiah Kister, the father of Mrs. Musser, war born in Greene township, Clinton Co .. Penn., October 7, 1825, a son of Lawrence Kis- ter. During the Civil war he became a member of Company F, 12th P. V. C., and in battle was shot in the face. After lingering two weeks, he died in the hospital at Chester, Penn., in August, 1864, and was there buried. He was a shoemaker and plasterer by trade, a Democrat in politics, and a consistent member of the Re- formed Church. He left a widow and six chil- dren, of whom, Mrs. Musser and her twin sister, Susan, were the second and third in order of birth. The other four were sons. The mother, who was a native of Aaronsburg, Centre county, and a daughter of Benjamin Miller, died in July, 1889, at the home of her son, B. F. Kister, of Millheim.
Mr. Musser began his domestic life in Mill- heim, where he has since made his home, and is numbered among its most progressive and wide-awake business men, of undoubted integrity and honor. His political support is ever given the Democratic party, and he has been called upon to fill several official positions of honor and trust, including those of assessor, tax collector, chief burgess and councilman, and was a mem- ber of the school board for some years. With the Lutheran Church both he and his excellent wife hold membership.
M ILTON J. HENDERSON holds a good po- sition among the agriculturists of Taylor township, Centre county, where he is engaged in general farming, and from which he derives an- nually a comfortable income. He was born
February 7, 1858, on the farm where he still re- sides-the old Henderson homestead on the Fowler road, which has been occupied by four generations of the family.
David and Mary (McMamagh) Henderson, parents of our subject, were also natives of Tay- lor township, the father born on the old home- stead October 13, 1819, where he continued to extensively engage in farming throughout life. He was drafted for the Civil war, but was re- leased on account of being a few days too old. His death, which occurred December 23, 1886, was caused by falling in a threshing machine. He was a conscientious, earnest Christian, for forty-two years holding membership with the United Brethren Church, to which his estimable wife also belonged. She was born May 21, 1821, and departed this life September 7, 1888.

Spit- ler, a miner of Sandy Ridge, Centre county; Mary, wife of John Orwick, a farmer of Taylor township; Malinda, deceased wife of John Beck- with, a merchant and farmer of Hannah Furnace, Penn .; Samuel, a resident of Madera, Clear- field county; William, section foreman on the Colorado railroad; Anna, wife of John McCrawf- ton, of Clearfield county; Milton J .; and John, who resides with our subject and is a partner in business.
Robert and Mary (Jackson) Henderson, the maternal grandparents, were also natives of Tay- lor township. The grandfather was born on the old homestead, where he engaged in farming and where he died. The maternal grandparents of our subject were Stephen H. and Eve (Frantz) McMunagle, the former of Irish and the latter of Dutch descent.
Milton J. Henderson spent his boyhood and youth after the manner of most farmers' sons, becoming familiar with plowing, sowing and reaping, and amid the quiet scenes of country life grew up with a healthy constitution and a clear brain. He is indebted to the public schools for his elementary education, and by reading and observation has become a well-informed man. He remained at home until after attaining his majority, when he removed to Clearfield county, and for two years was engaged in lumbering. Returning to Taylor township, Centre county, he operated a farm for his brother Robert for two years, but during the following three years he was again engaged in lumbering in Clearfield county. He next purchased a small farm in Taylor township, which he cultivated some three years, and subsequently operated a rented tract

On attaining to man's estate, Mr. Henderson was united in marriage with Miss Emma Weaver, who died in November, 1878, at the age of twen- ty-four years, leaving one son, Elmer, still at home. She was a daughter of David and Har- riet (Feaster) Weaver, the former now a resi- dent of Tyrone, Penn., and the latter deceased.

The father of this family was a farmer of Huntingdon, Hunt- ingdon county.
Mr. Henderson is a firm believer in the prin- ciples of the Republican party, which he always supports by his ballot; socially he is connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and, religiously, both himelf and wife are esteemed members of the United Brethren Church. They are respected and valued members of the com- munity, and possess the entire confidence and re- gard of their neighbors.
