In this week’s episode of Folklore & Facts: Grandmas Getting to the Bottom of It, we shine a light on Curwensville's Jane Patton Irvin. Wife of William Irvin Jr. and mother to fifteen—including E.A. Irvin, captain of the famed Bucktail Regiment Company K—Jane didn't sit around worrying when her sons went off to war, she took action.
When E.A. and fellow soldiers were taken prisoner, she traveled all the way to Washington, D.C., petitioned President Abraham Lincoln himself, and helped secure a crucial prisoner exchange. Back home, she rallied her community—raising funds, gathering supplies, and delivering care packages to soldiers.
Join us as we trace Jane’s steps from the family home on State Street to the White House, explore her faith-driven philanthropy in Curwensville, and uncover the legacy she left behind—one of tenacity, compassion, and the unshakeable belief that a mother’s love could move a commander-in-chief.
Tune in and discover how one remarkable “grandma” made history, and why her story still resonates in our town today.
