A biosketch of son Richard reports [31]:
Richard G. Greenawalt, son of Abraham and Rebecca (O'Hara) Greenawalt, was born December 22, 1842, in Sewickley township. He is one of six children surviving of twelve: Dr. Jacob, of Pittsburg; Cyrus M., of Scottdale; Richard G.; Abraham, a citizen of Linn county, Iowa: Rebecca, wife of C. D. Aultman, of Sewickly township; and Emily, wife of Robert Latimore, Pittsburg. Abraham Greenawalt (father), was born at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, November 12, 1798, a son of Jacob Greenawalt. While still a young man he came into Westmoreland county in company with three of his brothers: Henry, Jacob and Daniel, and settled in Sewickley township, where they purchased farms and lived during their lives. Abraham died June 30, 1871. His wife, Rebecca O'Hara, born August 29, 1810, died December 25, 1892. She was married to Abraham Greenawalt, December 30, 1829.
Richard G. Greenawalt, son of Abraham and Rebecca (O'Hara) Greenawalt, was educated in the common schools of his native place. September 4, 1861, he enlisted in Company E, One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, called the "Wildcats" and served twenty months in the Peninsula campaign. After some months with the One Hundred and Fifth he was transferred to Knapp's Battery. A cousin of Richard Greenawalt, Colonel J. W. Greenawalt, rose from the office of second lieutenant to that of major, then colonel; he was killed at the battle of the Wilderness. After returning from the war, Richard G. Greenawalt took up the study of dentistry, which he had already begun at the time of his enlistment, finishing in Pittsburg, where he practiced for several years. His health failed under the demands of a heavy practice, and in 1871 he settled on a farm in Sewickley township, where he lived for eighteen years. He then retired from active life and removed to West Newton, where he has since resided. He is a director and stockholder of the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank, a member of the town counciliand the owner of a public hall in the town. He is also an active member of the United Presbyterian church, and holds a high place in the esteem of his fellow-townsmen. He married, April 13. 1869, Anna M. Pierce, a daughter of James Pierce, of Sewickley township.
