General Notes: Husband - James Gilmore Moser


He received his education in the district schools of Butler County, Pennsylvania. He began industrial life as an assistant in the grocery store of G. W. Miller. Afterwards he obtained work in a bottling establishment as packer. He was then initiated into the hotel business, working first for a Mr. Idemiller and later in a hotel owned by Captain Leibold, later the owner and proprietor of the Arlington Hotel. Subsequently he quit the hotel business for a while, being occupied in painting and later becoming interested in oil production. In 1905 he bought the Steel Smith Building from Jacob Painter and turned it into the Commercial Hotel, fitting it up in an adequate manner to meet the demands of a good class of patronage. He makes special rates to jury-men, witnesses, regular boarders and also to theatrical people, his regular rates being $1.50 per day. The hotel was conducted on the American plan and there was a bar attachment to accommodate the wants of thirsty guests.
Politically Mr. Moser was a Republican. He was a member of the fraternal order, Woodmen of the World, and his religious connection was with the Methodist church.
