- (1) Historical and Biographical Annals of Columbia and Montour Counties, Pennsylvania, Volume II, Chicago, IL: J. H. Beers & Co., 1915, p. 774:
Andrew Creveling, grandfather of Daniel H. Creveling, was born in Scott township, near Bloomsburg, Jan. 22, 1806, and was a farmer, inheriting the old homestead. He owned three farms in all. Upon retiring from active work he moved to Light Street, where he died Sept. 1, 1886, and he is buried in the Creveling cemetery at Almedia, beside his first wife. She was Ann I. Henrie, daughter of Archibald and Sarah Henrie, and died in 1863, a member of the Episcopal Church, to which Mr. Creveling also belonged. She left a large family, of whom Sarah married Daniel Snyder; J. Harvey lives in Scott township, Columbia county; William P. is mentioned below; Delilah married Elisha Hagenbuch, of Centre township; Charity married Edward Sharret; Benson died in Scott township. The father's second marriage was to Mrs. Hikox, his third wife being Mrs. Harvey, his fourth Mrs. Fine. He was one of the active citizens of his day, taking part in public affairs, serving as captain and later as major in the State militia, and his enterprising and energetic disposition, and intelligent aid in all things affecting the public welfare, brought him into high favor and wide repute in his locality.
