General Notes: Husband - Alfred L. Ivory, Esq.


He attended the public schools of Allegheny and Armstrong counties, Pennsylvania, the Presbyterian Academy at Leechburg, Pennsylvania, and the Slate Lick Classical Institute, from which he graduated in 1870. He taught school several terms and was engaged in business in the mercantile line as clerk and traveling salesman for a number of years. During this time he pursued the study of law under a private tutor, but did not register as a law student until 1881, in Clarion County, Pennsylvania. He finished his course in the study of law in the office of Wilson and Jenks, afterward Reed and Wilson, and was admitted to the bar in Clarion County in the year 1888. Following his admission he practiced his profession in Clarion County for five years, and then removed to New York City, where he was engaged in special work of his profession for some years. Returning to Pennsylvania he spent four years at Pittsburgh with his brother, R. B. Ivory, and in 1900 located at Ford City, and continued practicing law there until 1909, when he located permanently at Kittanning. In 1908 he was a Republican party candidate for judge of the courts of Armstrong county and received the endorsement and nomination of the Prohibition party. After his admission to the bar in Clarion county, Mr. Ivory served two terms as secretary of the Republican County committee and was elected three times as its chairman. He was also a member of the Republican State Central committee. For many years he was an active member of the Presbyterian Church, was repeatedly elected to the office of ruling elder, and also served as trustee, treasurer, Sunday school superintendent and teacher in that church. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity and a Knight Templar, holding membership in Pittsburgh Commandery, No. 1. [HAC 1914, 619]
