About 1920, Christian and Fannie purchased the Weaver Homestead on Rockvale Road from the estate of his Father-in-law and ninechildren. Christian also farmed the Brubaker family's Willow Streetfarm after his brother became ill and died in 1919. Not one to remainidle, he attended a weekly farmers' market at Lancaster, did stonecrushing, road grading, and custom thrashing for about 30 farmers, inaddition to his ministerial duties.
Although he was known as a serious, if not solemn personality, he was progressive with the emerging technologies of his day. He was oneof the first in the church to have a radio in the house, and beforeelectric lines were strung across the countryside, he installed aDelco wet cell battery system to provide electric lights in his house.
