General Notes: Husband - Dr. Daniel A. Arter


He attended the public schools of his native place, and later the New Lisbon Academy from which he was graduated in 1847. Having determined to become a medical practitioner, he entered into the study of medicine under the preceptorship of Dr. D. Springer, of New Lisbon, Ohio. He continued the study of his chosen profession in the Cincinnati Eclectic Medical College. He entered into practice in Blairsville, Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and after a five months residence in that place he removed to Lockport. He then removed, August 2, 1851, to Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. There was probably no other physician in that part of the state that had a larger clientele, his operations extending throughout Westmoreland and into the counties of Indiana, Armstrong, Cambria, Fayette, and Allegheny.
He was one of the organizers of the Westmoreland National Bank, and stockholder in same; also served as director of the Greensburg Building and Loan Association from December 3, 1877, to December 4, 1882; as president from December 4, 1882, to October 5, 1885. He resigned the presidency, was re-elected director December 5, 1886.
Dr. Arter was the owner of considerable valuable real estate, having handled considerable property. His political affiliations were with the Republican party. He was a member of the Jr. O. U. A. M., R. A., A. O. U. W., and Philanthropy Lodge, No. 225, F. and A. M., and trustee of Masonic Fund of Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He was a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and held the office of trustee for many years.
