General Notes: Husband - Andrew E. Ivory


He was but two years old when the family moved to Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, his father purchasing a farm near Leechburg. Later they moved to another farm, in South Buffalo township, and Mr. Ivory obtained his early education at the Slate Lick Academy. He afterward attended the Witherspoon Institute at Butler, Pennsylvania, and then took a commercial course at the Iron City Business College, Pittsburgh. His first business experience was gained in a merchant tailoring and clothing store at East Brady, Clarion County, which he entered April 1, 1873, and where he was employed for four years. In 1877 he went to Millerstown (Chicora post office), Butler County, where he was in the same business for another four years, in 1880 returning to East Brady, to spend six years more in the establishment where he first started. Then for a period of eighteen years he was traveling salesman for Pittsburgh wholesale grocery houses, at the end of that time becoming part owner and manager of a large steam laundry in Pittsburgh. He was thus engaged until he embarked in a new enterprise, as proprietor of the Select Clean Towel Service for banks and office buildings. His office was at No. 7017 Jenkins Arcade building, Pittsburgh. From 1886 to 1895, he lived at Parkers Landing, from 1895 to 1903 at Franklin, Pennsylvania, and beginning in 1903 had his home in Pittsburgh.
He was well known in Masonic circles, belonging to Parker City Lodge, No. 521, F. & A. M., Parkers Landing, PA; to the Royal Arch Chapter, No. 273, at Butler, PA; Franklin Commandery, No. 44, K. T., of Franklin, Venango County, PA; Pennsylvania Consistory, S. P. R. S., thirty-second degree, Pittsburgh, PA; and Zem Zem Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S., of Erie, PA. He also belonged to the Heptasophs, holding membership in Estella Conclave, of Pittsburgh. [HAC 1914, 650]
