biography

 

 

M. Henry Staunton is the son of William and Mary (Evans) Staunton, natives of England, who settled in Allegheny City in 1818. Our subject was born September 23, 1831, in Allegheny City and received his education in the public schools of that city. He early engaged as a clerk in a drug store, and subsequently engaged in that business for himself, conduction stores in New Castle, Sharon and Wheatland. In 1854 he married Miss Teresa, daughter of Isaac and Nancy (Quinby) DeForest, and by this marriage they have six children: Teresa, Isaac D., Harry L., Adoniram, May and Birdie. In 1882 he bought the farm of his father-in-law, and since that time has been engaged in farming.
