General Notes: Husband - Edward Everett Hughes


He was carefully educated, attending the Allegheny Preparatory School at Meadville, PA, and later entering the University of Michigan, at Ann Arbor. Having completed his literary course he took up the study of law at Franklin, reading in the offices of Lee and Criswell, and he was admitted to the bar in 1886, since when he has been in practice at Franklin. His legal training not only led him into congenial professional work in the handling of others' interests, but has also been of inestimable value in the care of his own affairs, his business ventures having worked out very satisfactorily. When a re­ceiver was to be appointed for the Franklin Rolling Mills Mr. Hughes was chosen for the position, and he has been associated with the conduct of the plant ever since. The company was successfully reorganized under his guid­ance and its affairs shaped upon a substantial basis, and as vice president and general manag­er he has continued to be influential in directing its policy. The establishment is now the Frank­lin Steel Works, one of the plants of the Chi­cago Railway Equipment Company. Mr. Hughes is a serious and effective worker, conserving the matters intrusted to his care with consummate skill, with due regard for the smallest essential detail but without fuss of any kind, and his connection with any movement is a guarantee of its sincerity of purpose and reliability. [CAB, 468]

He married Mina Edison, she being the widow of inventor, Thomas Edison (1847-1931). [TV, 290]
