water. In 1867 he left Centre county, where he had followed the occupation of
farming, carpentering and boating, and also engaged in the meat business in
Milesburg. By his first marriage he had three children, one of whom died in
infancy, the others being James O., who died when young; and Lena K., wife of
our subject. After the death of their mother, Mr. Reber wedded Rebecca J.
Rogers, a native of Bellefonte, Penn., and a daughter of William Rogers. His
parents were Samuel and Mary A. (Askey) Reber, who spent their entire lives in
Centre county, where the father followed tailoring and farming. The maternal

grandparents of Mrs. Poulsen, John and Nancy (Garnder) Kunes, were also natives
of Centre county, where they made their home upon a farm.

Mr. Poulsen is a keen, practical man, well gifted with mental and physical vigor. In
politics he casts his vote for the candidates of the Republican party, and, although
he does not take an active part in public life, he conscientiously performs his

duties as a good citizen.
