Notes for William Alexius (Spouse 1)
Will Farabaugh was raised in Susquehanna Twp., and in Carroll Twp., Cambria County, Pa. In 1913 he bought from Andrew Strittmatter farm land at "Strittmatter's Corner", located one mile south of Carrolltown, where the West Branch of the Susquehanna River originates from a spring. The land was originally settled in about 1796 by Conrad Luther, a Hessian soldier who fought under George Washington and is buried somewhere on the property. Legend has it that Conrad was descended from the third son of Martin Luther, and that he was converted to Catholicism by Prince Gallitzin, but neither is likely true.

Will is remembered as a hard-working man of few words. In later life he and Addie had a regular routine of watching soap operas together, and they regularly played canasta.
