She graduated from the eighth grade at Pleasant Valley School.
Faith was married to Vernon A. Shambaugh April 19, 1914 and lived on Vernon's homestead 22 miles southeast of Holyoke. In the spring of 1919, they sold their homestead and went by train to Pennsylvania.

Vernon died in 1943 and Faith and her youngest daughter Irene moved to Holyoke. Faith worked in the Holyoke Hospital under Dr. Hill for a few years and then managed a cafe with Ruby Ashton for a year.
