The estimated value of the school property in the borough is

WOODCOCK.
$2,500. The amount raised for school purposes in 1872 was $476.77; the amount expended for school purposes the same year, $408.10. The number of resident pupils attending school was 65, and the number of non-resident pupils was eighteen.
BLOOMING VALLEY (p. v.) is situated in the south-east part of the township, on the State Road, and was organized as a borough May 17, 1867. It contains one hotel, five stores, a wagon shop, two blacksmith shops, a bowl factory, cooper shop, marble shop, planing mill and about forty-five dwellings. The population in 1870 was 209. It has a graded school, the build- ing for which cost $3,700.
The first settlement of which we have information was made in 1791, by James Humes, who located one mile west of Wood- cock borough. Settlements were made in 1794 by Henry Rust, from Westmoreland county, James Long, a native of Lancaster county, who died in 1830, in the 93d year of his age, and John H. Bossard, who came from the vicinity of Greensburg, West- moreland county. Patrick and Arthur McGill, brothers, came to the township in 1795. Arthur took up 800 acres and located on the farm now occupied by David and Josiah McGill. The south half of this tract was subsequently taken up by Patrick. John McGill, son of the latter, was about one year old when his father settled here and is now 78 years old. He retains his mental faculties well, though he is afflicted with a cancer in his face. Samuel Blair, grand-father of Mr. J. J. Long, and George Long, father of that gentleman, came to this township in 1797 and located on the farm owned by him. Blair was a native of Ireland and both came here from the Susque- hanna country. Wm. Wykoff, a native of New Jersey, came with his son, John Wykoff, in 1797, and settled on Gravel Run, about two miles east of Woodcock borough, on the farm now occupied by Wm. C. Wykoff. John Greenlee came from the Susquehanna country in 1797 and in 1798 he located on the farm occupied by his son, Wm. Greenlee. The animals which infested the forests, though they furnished the settlers an am- ple supply of meat, were very troublesome to their flocks. Wolves and bears were especially destructive. For a long time it was necessary to yard the sheep at night, and they were fre- quently attacked in the day time. The bears tore down their pig pens and carried off the pigs, and not unfrequently the cows were set upon by wolves.
The settlement at Saegertown was commenced about 1796. About 1800 Maj. Alden built a saw mill on the site of the present mills, and the place was known for several years as Aldens Mills. In 1824 Daniel Saeger purchased the mill and
122

the lands adjacent to it, and laid out the town under its present name. Mr. Saeger came from Lehigh county and possessed more than ordinary energy and business capacity. Being a na- tive Pennsylvanian, of German descent, he soon attracted to this locality a large number of the hardy, honest German yeo- manry of Lehigh and other eastern counties, thus giving to it all the characteristics of a Pennsylvania Dutch settlement. The first store in this village was kept by the Saegers and has been kept in the Saeger name ever since, now more than forty years. Among the early settlers here were Adam Brookhouser and his two sons, Adam and Jacob, Adam Newhouser and Peter Shaffer.
The Indians had a village or encampment at an early day near where the Reformed church now stands.
The first tavern in Saegertown was kept by Peter Shaffer, where Saeger's brick store now stands. The first school was kept by Jonathan G. David in a small log cabin, situated a short distance above the mill. In 1834 a frame school house was built near the Reformed church. It was a low building with a partition through the center, designed to have English taught in one apartment and German in the other. The post office was established in 1833, the mail being carried from Meadville to Girard once a week, and when the postman, David Yarrick, rode into the village on his little black horse, blowing his horn, no little sensation was produced.
Nathaniel Clark, from Armstrong county, settled in the township about 1801. Wm. H. Clark, his son, was born about half a mile from where he now lives, about sixty-two years ago. George Peiffer, a Revolutionary hero, came to this county from Northumberland county, in 1802, and removed to this township in 1809. Thomas Rice came from Allegheny county, in April, 1819, and settled on the farm now owned by S. T. Rice.
The first store in Woodcock borough was kept by James Moore; and the first hotel, by Jacob Keptler, who was also the first postmaster. Henry Zimmerman was one of the first mer- chants.
The first saw mill erected in the township was built by Archi- bald Humes, at the mouth of Gravel Run, where he located. He soon after built at the same place the grist mill which is. now owned by Mr. Apple. James Dickson, who came from Cumberland county and settled on Woodcock Creek at a very early day, is said to have built the first grist mill erected in the north part of the county. The stones, which were common rock, were obtained near Pittsburgh, at a place called Laurel Hill. Wm. Wise, who came to this township from Center county, in 1830, is 96 years old (1873) and is said to be the oldest man now living in the county.

The first religious meetings were held by Robert C. Hooker, a missionary from Kentucky, in a log house occupied by one " Sheaver."
Gravel Run Church, (Presbyterian,) at Woodcock borough, was or- ganized in 1809, and their first house of worship was erected soon afterward. The present edifice was erected in 1854, at a cost of $2,500, which is one- half the present value of Church property. It will seat 350 persons. The first pastor was Rev. John Matthews ; the present one is Rev. W. A. Mc- Carroll. The Society numbers 117 .- [Information furnished by Mr. Wm. Clark.
Rockville Church, (M. E.) at Woodcock borough, was organized in 1810, by Rev. Joshua Monroe, the first pastor. The first church edifice was erected in 1817 and was constructed of logs ; the present one, which will seat about 300 persons, was erected in 1838, at a cost of $1,800. The Society numbers eighty and is ministered to by Rev. R. C. Smith. The Church property is valued at $3,000 .- [Information furnished by Mr. Isaac Peiffer.
