General Notes: Husband - Alfred Wick


He clerked in his father's store for some years, and subsequently became a member of the firm of Wick & Son, of West Sunbury. In 1862 he located at Rouseville, Venango County, and engaged in the hotel business, removing the following year to a farm in Wash­ington township, Butler County, where he continued in agricultural pursuits until 1876. He then located in Butler, purchased the old Finley Hotel, changed the name to the Wick House, and carried it on until 1884. In 1885 he embarked in oil producing and became one of the leading operators of the county. In politics, he was a Republican until 1893, at which time he became a Prohibitionist. He was an elder in the Pres­byterian church of Butler, and a liberal contributor to that church.
