General Notes: Husband - Joseph E. Barnett


He was educated in the public schools, and for a short time attended the Blairsville Academy at Blairsville, Pennsylvania. After completing his studies, he engaged as a clerk in the general store at Coketown, and later entered the employ of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, with which he held a clerical position in its offices at Derry, Pennsylvania. In 1883 he entered the banking business at Latrobe as clerk in the Citizens' Banking Company, and was made cashier two years later. He was one of a group of men who organized the Citizens' National Bank of Latrobe in 1889, of which institution he became cashier. Upon the organization of the Latrobe Trust Company in 1906, he was chosen vice-president. He was called upon to serve as treasurer in more than a score of local corporations. He was one of the most active figures in the campaign to draw successful industries to Latrobe.
He was a member of the Republican party, and for many years served on the Latrobe Board of Education. Mr. Barnett was an active member of the Presbyterian church, and did much to advance the cause of the charities connected therewith.
