      Thomas Rinehart, retired farmer and stock grower, 
Ceylon, Penna, was born in Greene County, February 14, 1802. 
His parents, John Rinehart and Peggy Inghram Rinehart, were 
of Irish and German descent. His ancestors were among the 
earliest settlers of the county, in which many descendants 
of both families now reside, some of them having held 
prominent positions therein. The present President Judge of 
Greene County is a nephew of Thomas Rinehart, the subject of 
our sketch. Mr Rinehart's father was a farmer all his life. 
Thomas Rinehart was his second son and was reared in Greene 
County, attending the subscription schools. He manifested 
excellent business proclivities early in life, and was 
untiring in his zeal to make the best of every opportunity, 
as a result of which he now owns a fine farm of 200 acres, 
where he lives in Cumberland Township.
  
      Here he was married and is the father of two children: 
Thomas Franklin Rinehart, and Margaret Ann Rinehart. Mr 
Rinehart is a Democrat, and he and his wife are consistent 
members of church.
