General Notes: Husband - Harry Lamberton
He acquired his early education in the public schools of Franklin, Pennsylvania. He subsequently attended a preparatory school at Lawrenceville, New Jersey, and in 1878 entered upon his first experience in the banking business in the Lamberton bank at Franklin then known as the Lamberton Savings Bank. He has been connected with it ever since. In 1883 he and W. J. Lamberton purchased the interest of R. L. Cochran in this institution and the former succeeded him as cashier, joining his brother, R. G. Lamberton, and brother-in-law, Calvin W. Gilfillan, in the management. It continued in operation as a savings bank until 1899, when it was reorganized under the present title, the Lamberton National Bank of Franklin, Harry Lamberton becoming vice president under the new arrangement. In 1901, upon the death of Mr. Gilfillan, he succeeded to the presidency, which he has since filled. This is the oldest bank in Venango County and from the days when the business was conducted by "R. Lamberton, Banker," has had unsullied prestige for soundness of financial operations and safe-guarding the interests of patrons, having been on the "Roll of Honor" for a number of years. In addition to his duties as president and director of this bank, Mr. Lamberton has those of director of the Lamberton National Bank of Oil City (which was also started by his father), also a "Roll of Honor" bank. As a financier his abilities are undisputed, and he has had some notable successes in other business connections, having formed interests in the oil fields of the locality and in various commercial ventures. [CAB, 422]
He attended the public schools of his native town. A course in the Lawrenceville Preparatory School, Lawrenceville, New Jersey, completed his education. In 1878 he entered upon his business career in banking with the Lamberton Savings Bank, for that was the name of the institution which spanned the transition period between the close of the commercial banking business established in 1859-60 by Hon. Robert Lamberton and the large commercial banking business transacted by the Lamberton National Bank to-day. His connection with the bank has been continuous for the period close to half a century which has followed. With W. J. Lamberton, he bought the interest of R. L. Cochran in 1883. When the bank was reorganized, in 1899, under its present title, he became vice-president, and, in 1901, succeeded to the presidency, upon the death of Calvin W. Gilfillan, his brother-in-law. His clubs are: The Franklin, Wanango Country, Venango, of Oil City, the Rotary, and the American Bankers' Association. His religious fellowship is with the Presbyterian Church.
