Christian Dale Biography

Christian Dale died in Ferguson township (now Harris) in July, 1805.

He was one of the first settlers of Buffalo valley, clearing the place now owned by Col. Eli Slifer, adjoining Lewisburg, in 1772.

He resided in Buffalo valley during the stirring times of the Revolution, and in 1790 removed to end of Nittany Mountain and erected a mill there in 1796, and saw-mill. These he willed to his son Felix.

Christian Dale's children were Henry, Philip, Felix, Frederick, Christian, Mary Straw (wife of Nicholas), Eve Earhart (wife of Peter), Rachel (wife of Lewis Swinehart), and Christian Dale. Christian Dale, Jr., and Frederick moved to Ohio. Felix Dale died March 12, 1833, aged sixty-six.
