p. 521 James M. Provance was born in Nicholson township, Fayette county,
Pa., March 23, 1849; was reared on a farm, and attended the common
schools. At the age of thirteen, he commenced to make his own living as
deck sweeper on a steamboat, which he followed for one year, when he
shipped as deck hand, after which he worked as a fireman for some time.
He was engaged upon the river for about ten years, when he engaged in
mining coal. Afterwards learned the trade of stone mason.
In 1872 he was married to Mis Mary M. Romesburg, a daughter of Adam
Romesburg, who was a native of Pennsylvania, and of German descent. Mrs.
Provance died Sept. 4, 1887. To this union were born five children:
Alfrida, Isa D., Della, Harry B. and James L. Alfrida is married to
Daniel Davis of Fayette County.
Mr. Provance owns a comfortable little home at New Geneva.
Theron Provance, the father of the subject of this sketch, was born in
Fayette county Pa., owned a small farm, and had a comfortable home. His
father, Joseph Y. Provance, was one of the early settlers of western
Pennsylvania, and was a large land owner. He was of English birth, and
came to America, and settled in Pennsylvania before the revolution, and
took part in that war. He was the father of twenty-seven children. |
