"Mr. Gearhart is of German descent, and his ancestors were early settlers in Pennsylvania. John Gearhart, great-grandfather of our subject, emigrated from Germany about the middle of the seventeenth century, and settled at Baegler Run, Penn. He married a Miss Gray, and to this union were born ten children: Nanly, Jacob S. , John, Adam, Christ, Lias, Peter, Eve Betsey, Susan Nancy and Catherine. Grand- father Jacob S. Gearhart, who was born in Pennsylvania, became one of the pioneers of Decatur township, Clearfield county, clearing a farm where he made his home until his death, which occurred in 1865; his wife. Mary (Flegal), died in 1885."
