According to the History of Schuylkill County, PA, page 229:

Emanuel Boyer, elected a Burgess in 1871, is also a native of the county, having been born in Schuylkill township in 1829. On reaching manhood he removed to Middleport, and opened a tailor shop. He married at Tuscarora, in 1859, Elizabeth Horne, of Union township, and removed to Tuscarora, where he was employed at the store of Joseph Adlers. In 1853 he was offered the agency of the Little Schuylkill Company at this point, and removed here, settling in a building owned by the company-the solitary tavern that for many years had been the forerunner of Mahanoy City. Mr. Boyer is regarded as the pioneer of the place. He has held several offices of trust in the old township, and his term as burgess was marked by a contest between the council and himself, in which he maintained the interests of the taxpayers in the courts, and contributed materially to a more economical administration. He has had twelve children, but four of whom are living.
