Abraham Weisel, one of the foremost citizens of Colerain, Bedford County,
was born in this township, February 14, 1844, a son of Abraham, Sr. and
Elizabeth (Mann) Weisel. On the maternal side he comes of Revolutionary
stock, his great-grandfather Mann having fought during the struggle for
American independence under General Washington.
Abraham Weisel, Sr., was born in Bedford County, Pennsylvania. He followed
the trade of a cooper when a young man, but afterward became widely known
as a miller, carrying on business for many years. He operated grist mills
in different sections of the county, having one at Bedford Springs for
fifteen years, one in Wolfsburg, one known as "the Patterson Mill", and for
a time also he had control of the plant known as "the old Poor House Mill".
In the early part of his life he enjoyed the distinction of being the first
superintendent of the celebrated Bedford Mineral Springs. During the latter
part of his life he devoted his energies to general farming in Colerain,
where he was for years one of the most influential citizens. He was a
self-made man. In 1842 he represented Bedford County in the state
legislature, having been elected on the Democratic ticket, which he always
supported. He served in various township offices with fidelity and ability,
and was also active! in religious work, being a member and an elder of the
Reformed Church. He died at his home in Colerain, August 26, 1890, full of
years and honors. The maiden name of his wife, who was born and bred in
Bedford County, was Elizabeth Mann.
Abraham Weisel, Jr. received his elementary education in the public schools
of the county, after which he attended the Allegheny Male and Female
Seminary at Rainsburg, Pennsylvania, under Professor J.W. Hughes, several
terms, and for a time was a student at a private normal training school in
Bedford, Pennsylvania, conducted by County Superintendent H.W. Fisher.
Subsequently for a period of about twenty-five years he was engaged as a
teacher in his own and adjoining townships, a position for which he was
well qualified. He taught a select school at Boydstown, then a suburb of
Bedford, but now included within the borough limits. During the term of
1874-75 he had charge of the intermediate department of the Everett Schools.
Mr. Weisel began his career as school teacher at Spruce Hill Schoolhouse,
in Snake Spring Township, on December 4, 1865. Commencing with a low-grade
"provisional certificate", by hard study and close attention to his duties
he worked his way up till he soon took rank with the leading teachers of
the county, having received in regular order from the proper school
authorities the different grades of teachers' certificates, namely,
provisional, professional, and permanent. Since retiring from the work of
school teaching, he has devoted himself, with well-directed energy and with
gratifying success, to agricultural pursuits. He has a farm of two hundred
and ten acres of land, on which he raises an abundance of the crops common
to this part of the county. He is also engaged to some extent in
stock-breeding. An active supporter of every good cause, Mr. Weisel
continues to take special interest in the education of the young, and as
school director of Colerain Township, ! an office in which he is now
serving his third term, he has rendered valuable service. He has also been
township clerk and township auditor a number of terms, positions which he
has filled most creditably. In politics he is identified with the
Democratic party. In the Reformed Church, of which he is a member, he is
now serving as elder, having virtually succeeded his father, who served in
that capacity many years.
Mr. Weisel and Malinda C. Hartman, a daughter of A.J. Hartman, of Loysburg,
Pennsylvania, were married on May 13, 1875. They have ten children, namely:
S. Estella, a teacher in the public schools of Bedford County; Elizabeth
A.; Henrietta C.; Theodore H.; Martha B.; Mary G.; William A.; Lloyd S.;
James H.; and Elsie M.C.
