Misc. Notes
David Way was born in Center county, Pa., January 12, 1837, came to Clearfield county in 1854, locating on his farm of 106 acres, situated in Pike township, and owns a one-half interest in a second farm of 100 acres, situated also in Pike township. He is a son of Job and Jane (Barlow) Way, the latter of whom was born in Sinking Valley. The children of Job and Jane Way were five in number.

David Way attended the district schools in his youth but his advantages were meager in comparison with those which are now almost thrust upon the present generation. Farming and lumbering then claimed his attention and he continued to be interested more or less in both industries during his active years.

Following his marriage he continued to live in Bell township for one year and then moved to Penn township, remaining there two years, after which he came to Pike township, locating on his farm of 106 acres, situated three miles northwest of Curwensville, as previously stated, where he erected farm buildings. He now [1911] lives retired on Ridge Avenue, Curwensville, a capable tenant managing the farm.

Being a consistent member of the Society of Friends [Quaker], he has never been much of a politician, but has accepted various township offices and performed the duties of the same to the entire satisfaction of his fellow citizens.

He has served as school director, road supervisor and overseer of the Poor and at one time was also elected township treasurer. He is a member of the Clearfield Agricultural Society and belongs to the Grange, taking a deep interest in farming in spite of his years, and anxious to witness the results of modern methods so different from those he made use of for many years. Doubtless he has often proved that practice and theory differ widely. He is one of Pike township’s most esteemed and respected citizens. [There is more on David’s ancestry at this source.]
