General Notes: Husband - George Andrew Hoffmann


He was educated in the public schools, Wesleyan College, of Delavan, Ohio, and at Washington and Jefferson College. After receiving his degree from the latter institution he creditably passed the examinations for admission to the bars of Allegheny and Washington counties, and from that time until his death steadily gained in prestige and reputation among his legal brethren, two years prior to his death, 1890-91, filling the position of district attorney. His power and influence as an advocate was known throughout the state, and few were the adverse decisions that fell to his lot. Forceful, able and convincing in argument, in the presentation of his cases he combined direct strength of statement with eloquence of expression, his appeal being always to the reason rather than the sentiments of his hearers. He spoke and acted from a close familiarity with all of the complex and perplexing technicalities of the legal code, his clients being benefited by his years of assiduous study. He supported the Republican party, and belonged to Henry M. Phillips Lodge, No. 645, Free and Accepted Masons.
