General Notes: Husband - Joseph Warren Whitehill


He was educated in the public school, Rimersburg Academy and Carriers Seminary in Clarion, PA. He began working in the oil fields when a young man, continuing as driller and pumper until 1895, when he met with an accident that so crippled him that lighter occupation became a necessity. He began operating in a small way, was suc­cessful, enlarged his lines, and eventually had inter­ests in forty producing wells. He had other business interests of importance, owning the farm of 70 acres in Ashland township, 79 acres in Knox, and was interested in the Clarion County National Bank and in other profitable enter­prises. He was a Republican in politics, pro­gressive, and had deeply at heart the welfare of his country. [GPHAV, 1049]
