General Notes: Husband - William Reynolds Truby

---

He was a clerk from 1862 to '64, in the mercantile line, and in 1864-5, at the draft rendezvous. He was engaged in the general store business beginning in 1866, and became well known in the section as the most extensive wool buyer in the four counties.

He lived until the age of fifteen at Echo, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, receiving his education at the common schools and at the academy. When eighteen years of age he went to Blairsville and was employed as clerk in a general store. In 1864 he enlisted and was assigned a clerkship in the adjutant's office under Colonel I. V. D. Reeves, of the Seventeenth United States Infantry, commanding the post of Camp Reynolds, near Pittsburg,h and was mustered out of service May 3, 1865.
After his return to Blairsville until 1884 he engaged in mercantile business at that place. During this period he served for twelve years as a member of the city council and the school board, for a part of the time holding the office of secretary of the latter organization. In 1885, shortly after the organization of the Philadelphia Company, he moved to Pittsburgh and formed a connection with this company, whose land agent he was for fifteen years or more, having charge of all its land and properties in connection with its natural gas business.
He adhered to the doctrines and principles of the Republican party, and was a member of the First United Presbyterian church of Wilkinsburg, in which he held the office of elder.
