Peter W. Albert, one of Allegheny Township's prominent and most substantial citizens, who has resided on his valuable farm of 172 acres, since 1896, was born in Franklin Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, January 28, 1854, and is son of Peter and Rachel (Miller) Albert.
Among the earliest settlers of Franklin Township, Butler County, was Adam Albert, who was born in Virginia. His family accompanied him into what was then a wilderness, and there both he and his wife died. Peter Albert, son of Adam and father of Peter W., was a child when his parents came to Franklin Township and there his whole subsequent life was spent, his death taking place December 17, 1895. He married Rachel Miller, who has spent her entire life of eighty-seven years in Butler County. Of their children, the six survivors are: John D., residing at Prospect, Pennsylvania; Peter W.; Oren M., living in Franklin Township; Mary A., wife of J.G. McCullough, residing at Kittanning; Annie Z., wife of Everett Campbell, of Franklin Township; and Rachel C., also a resident of Franklin Township. The venerable mother, now one of the oldest pioneer women of that section, is a daughter of Richard Miller, one of the earliest settlers. Mrs. Albert retains her facilities to a remarkable degree and her recollections of the early times in Franklin Township are very interesting. Both she and her late husband were among the founders of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in their neighborhood.
2023 lived in the town of Isle, PA next to Callista Albert, never married.
Note: Peter Albert was the husband of Rachel Hughes Miller.
