General Notes: Husband - Ray William McKay


He attended the public schools, afterwards attending Grove City College. His lifelong focus was the McKay Carriage Company, and the prosperity and popularity of that firm were due in no small measure to his indefatigable care and attention. In political matters he was a Republican, and with his vote and influence supported the principles of that party. He was a member of the regimental staff of the 112th Infantry of the Pennsylvania National Guard beginning in 1902. His fraternal affiliations were with the Free and Accepted Masons, the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, thirty-second degree, and the Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine; he was also a member of the Grove City Commercial Club, Rotary Club, Country Club, and the New Castle Field Club. His religious faith was that of the Presbyterian Church.
