Source Notes
Per Robert Beals,(Emlenton, PA, grandson of Catherine Howe), Catherine had a brother named George who owned a coffee company, and Catherine's husband Henry Kline worked for George for a time. The History of Clarion Co., 1887, p. xxv biography of George Howe b. 1823, lists his father as Abraham Howe. Henry Kline & Catherine Howe named one of their sons John Abram Kline; this name repetition supports the possibility that the Abraham Howe in this biography is the father of Catherine Howe. If so, the family originated, or was in Huntington County PA for a time.
There is a second Howe biography, p. xxv, 1887 History of Clarion Co., of one Nelson B. Howe of Knox b. 1849. It lists his father as George C. and Barbara E. (Armstrong) Howe - so possibly a son of the George Howe above, except that it also lists his paternal grandfather as Simeon Howe, pioneer of Clarion Co. PA. It is enticing to wonder if the writer mangled the second biography, skipping a generation, assigning Barbara Armstrong to the wrong generation of Howe, etc. (See complete text)
