General Notes: Husband - Isaac W. Mitchell


He was two years of age when his parents brought to Washington, PA, where, at the common schools of the borough, and at Washing­ton and Jefferson College, he received his educa­tion. He chose bookkeeping as his life work, which vocation he followed two years in Iowa and three years in Chicago, IL, but on account of failing health he returned to Washington in 1874. In 1885 he engaged with his uncle, Mr. A. Todd Baird, in the grocery business which he successfully conducted.

He filled various offices of trust, including: borough coun­cilman; treasurer of Washington and Jefferson College; treasurer of the Y. M. C. A.; treasurer and director of the Washington Glass Company; director of the Gas, Electric Light & Power and Tyler Tube & Pipe Companies, and of the Farmers & Mechanics National Bank. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church of Washington, and in 1891 was sent to Minneapolis as a delegate from the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor.
