    J. CLARK McCULLOCH, one of the leading general farmers of Newton township,
  was born upon his present home, May 10, 1871, a son of William R. and Mary
  (Hemminger) McCulloch, a complete sketch of whom appears elsewhere.
    
    The education of J. Clark McCulloch, who is a representative of one of the
  old pioneer families of this county, was begun at the district schools, and
  completed at the Cumberland Valley Normal School at Shippensburg, when, after
  two years he returned home, and assisted his father until he attained his
  majority.
    
    On Dec. 29, 1898, Mr. McCulloch married Miss Jane Means of Southampton
  township, Franklin county, daughter of J. McCord and Catherine (McClelland)
  Means, prominent pioneers of Franklin county. Mrs. McCulloch was born and
  reared near Middle Spring, and there she obtained her primary education,
  later becoming a student in the Cumberland Valley Normal school at
  Shippensburg. After their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. McCulloch settled on the
  McCulloch homestead, where they have since resided. This farm of 146 acres, is
  one of the most valuable in the township, and was located by Mr. McCulloch's
  grandfather, John McCulloch. The farm is well stocked with a good grade of
  cattle; the hogs are Poland China and Chester White breeds, while some of his
  cows are of the pure breed Jerseys.
    
    One child was born to Mr. and Mrs. McCulloch, Harold Ritchey. Politically
  Mr. McCulloch is a stanch Democrat, and has served one term as auditor of
  Newton township. Both he and his wife are consistent members of the United
  Presbyterian Church at Newville. Although still a young man, Mr. McCulloch
  has already made himself felt both as a farmer and a politician, and the
  future before him is a very bright one, as his associates already speak of
  him for higher offices within the gift of the people, knowing that if he is
  so honored, the duties pertaining thereto will be honorably and faithfully
  performed.
