NELSON McCREA BOTHEL, only son of James BOTHEL, was born June 25, 1867, in 
Washington township, Indiana Co., Pa., and there passed his early years. He 
has been a farmer all his active life, and after commencing on his own account 
lived and farmed in Armstrong township, this county, for a period of sixteen 
year, owning sixty-five acres there. In 1908 he returned to his father's farm 
in Center township, where he is now successfully engaged in farming and stock 
raising.
     Like his father Mr. BOTHEL has always been a Republican in his political 
principles, but is independent when it comes to choosing candidates for any 
office. While living in Armstrong township he served his fellow citizens for 
six years in the office of school director, and was secretary of the board 
during that time. He is particularly interested in church work, being a 
leading member of the United Presbyterian Church, which he has served in an 
official capacity for many years, having been elder, trustee, Sunday school 
teacher and superintendent.
     Mr. BOTHEL was married in December, 1890, to Lottie CARNAHAN, of 
Armstrong township, this country, daughter of David and Levinia (BERKEBILE) 
CARNAHAN, and four children were born to them: Florence (who is now the wife 
of William ANTHONY, and has one daughter, Edith M.), Esther, Levinia and 
Bessie. Mrs. BOTHEL died Jan 13, 1906, and is buried in Greenwood cemetery, at 
Indiana.
