NOT the father of Sarah Lytle who married Alexander Aikey. I do not know who the Sarah is in the census, but she is not listed in the will of Piersol Lytle.
Disclaimer - Relatives tell me that Pieresol was Sarah's father. I find a Sarah in the 1860 census that is the correct age, living in his household. But in 1870 the girl that is the right age is now listed as "Ann". There is also an Ann in 1860, so there are two children, one named Ann, one named Sarah. But either Sarah is listed as Ann by mistake (Ann should be 16 in 1870 - she is listed as 12 - the age we expect Sarah to be in 1870) or she is not listed at all. Sarah's death & funeral notices do not list her parents, and I do not yet have her death certificate.. so I can't prove this lineage at this time.

1839 - MarriageDecember 18, 1839, Married Lydia Johnstonbough
Note that Piersol & Jane were married in December of 1839, according to a marriage record ref. Sprangler Collection at Pattee Library,Penn State University. Jane is 11 in 1850, & 21 in 1860. That means she was born in 1839- or by the estimate of the 1870 census, even 1838. Although that's certainly possible, finding her in 1870 with Keturah (Lytle) Watts makes me wonder if she is a relative, but not a daughter of Piersol? I really need to go look up his will.
In 1859 son Issac died, age 18. On Isaac's tombstone, it says "son of Zaccheus & Lydia Lytle". Persol's grandfather was named Zaccheus Piersol, it looks like his full name was Zacheus Piersol Lytle, after his grandfather.

6, and Sarah age 2. So 10 years later, Sarah should be age 12 and Anna age 16.
Margaret Ella - "Ellen" is listed as age 16 in 1870, in 1860 she was listed as age 8. If Sarah is no longer in this household in 1870 - where did she go? I had thought her name was listed incorrectly as Anna, until I found that there IS an Anna in 1860, as well as Sarah.

SAMUEL FOSTER LYTLE, M.D., deceased October 9, 1896, occupied for a
score of years a prominent position in his profession, and was
recognized by his colleagues, far and near, as one of the leading
physicians of Centre county. He was a member of the County, State and
National Medical Associations. President of the Board of Health, and
State Health Inspector for his District. Esteemed as he was by the
members of his profession, the people, whose good fortune it was to be
subject to his ministrations, loved him for his sympathetic nature, and
venerated him for his rare ability and skill.
Possessing as an inheritance the qualities of an ancestry whose
lineage was noble in the highest sense, not because of descent from
progenitors of rank and title, but because of that intrinsic strain of
valor, firmness and fineness of character, and integrity of purpose
which is the measure of worth and constitutes true nobility and
gentility. He was also richly endowed by nature with a talent for the
profession he loved and to which his life was devoted.
The remote history of Dr. Lytle's family goes-back to County Donegal,
Ireland, where the name still adheres, honored and respected, and
begins in this country with the settlement of a branch of the family in
Lancaster county, Penn., more than a century ago, where they became-
distinguished for their patriotism during the period of the Revolution.
Foremost in loyalty was Col. Andrew Lytle, who was commissioned as
colonel of the 8th Pennsylvania Regiment in the Revolutionary army,
July 23, 1781, in command of which he served with distinction,
receiving the personal commendation of Gen. Washington, and honorable
mention in the Archives of the State. He was a charter member of the
Order of the Cincinnati, and died in 1784 of camp fever. His son,
Isaac Lytle, grandfather of Dr. Lytle, was born in Lampeter, Lancaster
county, in 1772, and was married in 1802, to Jane, daughter of Zaccheus
Piersol, of Pequa Valley, a descendant of an ancient and honorable
Scotch family in direct line from Archibald Douglas. He removed to
Harris township, Centre county, in 1814, where he died September 30,
1854. His eldest son, Griffeth, father of Dr. Lytle, was born in 1806,
coming with his father to Centre county in 1814, where he engaged in
agriculture. He married Susan Foster, born in Huntingdon county in
1812, a woman of remarkable beauty of character and refinement of

manner. Purchasing a farm near Lemont, which is still the home of his
eldest son, William, he resided there until 1855, when he bought a farm
in the vicinity of State College, where his death occurred in 1875, his
wife, Susan, surviving him fifteen years. Of their ten children, Dr.
Lytle was the youngest son.
Dr. Lytle was born March 14, 1851, and from early childhood evinced a
decided trend of mind toward medicine and surgery, which increased with
years until in early manhood it became his passion and determined his
career. Graduating from State College, he pursued the study of
medicine under Dr. J. Y. Dale, of Lemont, with the eagerness and
intensity of one whose aspiration was to master the science. Entering
Bellevue Hospital Medical College as the next step forward in his
profession, he graduated honorably in 1875. Still bent on the
acquirement of learning, he pursued a post-graduate course at Columbia
College before entering upon the active duties of a physician. At this
time he received an appointment as surgeon in the regular army, but the
death of his father led him to decline the position. In the autumn of
1875 he came to Philipsburg, rapidly acquiring a practice. Four years
later he married Nannie, daughter of Thomas Crissman (deceased) and
Margaret Crissman, whose family still occupy a position of high
standing in the community.
With the increase of his clientage as the Doctor's popularity
increased, the demands upon him became so great that his health
suffered from the strain; but through his deep sympathy with others and
his great fortitude, he bore his own suffering silently and bravely,
ministering to the sick when needing help himself, and struggling
against physical disability that would have broken a less heroic
spirit. Gentle and generous to the last, courteous and brave, he died
literally with harness on, coming from the bedside of a patient where
with all his skill he was fighting for the life of another against the
dread destroyer, to yield suddenly his own life up to that relentless
hand.
Dr. Lytle was a man of broad culture, studious habits, in touch with
the most advanced movements in the science of medicine, and a type of
the scholarly professional gentleman, beloved and mourned by the
community which he served and healed.
