General Notes: Husband - John M. Grable


He attended the common schools of his home district, and worked on the home farm un­til he came of age. He then embarked in the in­surance business, as solicitor for A. C. Sampson, of Monongahela City, with whom he remained some years; then moved to York County, Pennsylvania, where he conducted an agency in the same line of business. Returning to Washington County, he started a grocery store at Bentleyville, which he carried on for some years; then moved into Mo­nongahela City and opened an insurance office, where he built up a busi­ness in both fire and life insurance.
In politics he was a Democrat, and for many years took an active interest in the affairs of his party. He served as mayor of Monon­gahela City several terms.
