General Notes: Husband - William Henry Smith


He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and lived there until he was seven years old, when he moved to Mahoningtown, Lawrence County, which was his home thereafter, although absent from it for considerable lengths of time. He attended the Mahoningtown schools, and Geneva College of Northwood, Ohio, until he was nineteen years of age, when he began teaching, and presided at the desk for some three winters. He next was employed in Pittsburgh by the Allegheny Valley R. R. for some six months, and then secured a position with the Chautauqua Lake Ice Co. at Pittsburgh, with which company he remained three years. After a few months in Virginia with the Norfolk & Western R. R., he left for Robins, Tennessee, where for two years he enjoyed steady employment in the lumber business. Returning to Mahoningtown in the spring of 1887, he opened a lumber yard on Cherry Street, which he conducted alone two years, and then formed the partnership with his brother, John D. The firm dealt in all the staple lumber, hardware, and other customary building materials.
He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church, and he was a member of Amazon Lodge, No. 336, Knights of Pythias of Mahoningtown.
When the Mahoningtown bank was established, he took stock, and appointed cashier.
