NOT A DIRECT ANCESTOR

Burbage Martin Kribbs is not in my direct ancestry. He is the brother of Adeline Kribbs. Adeline is the first wife of James Francis Beals. Our direct line of ancestry is through the 2nd wife, Olive Samantha Bower.

Burbage Martin Kribbs, son of Jacob and Delilah (Martin) Kribbs, was born on the farm he now owns, in Ashland township, Clarion county, October, 1855. He was educated in the public schools, and continued his father's assistant at the home farm until 1880, when the latter turned the entire management over to him and moved to the small farm in Salem township. Burbage M. Kribbs continued in management of the Ashland township farm until 1892, when he became the owner by purchase from his father. He has made many improvements, and has one hundred and fifty-acres of well tilled profitable land under cultivation.

Oil was discovered on the farm and for several years the wells were operated, but have now ceased to produce. He carries on general farming operations, also raising and dealing in live stock. He is a Democrat in politics, has served in many township offices and is one of the substantial men of his town. He and his wife are members of the Reformed church, and he is a member of the Kinghts of the Maccabees.

He married, December 20, 1881, Frances E. Weeter, born in Venango county, Pennsylvania, eldest daughter of Samuel and Susanna F. (Knauss) Weeter, and granddaughter of Henry and Frances (Frye) Weeter. Henry Weeter was a farmer of Salem township, Clarion county, owning his own land and filling several township offices. His children were: Sarah, married Elias Sheffer, now deceased; Samuel, father of Frances E. (Weeter) Kribbs; Anna, resides in Nickleille, Pennsylvania, married John Persing; Harriet, married John Winger, and resides in Salem township; William, deceased; Ellen, married Harry King, of West Virginia; John, now engaged in the oil business, married ____Caldwell; Amanda, married Reuben Laughner, and resides in Salem, Pennsylvania; Frances, married Joseph Shrey, and resides in Salem township; Lewis, deceased, married Mary Weeter.
