General Notes: Husband - J. Charles Bedell


He was educated at the common schools, and also attended night school. Early in life he became a compositor, and was employed in a publishing-house in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for several years. Soon afterward he went to Dakota territory, where he edited the first paper, remaining three years, after which he was employed by the P. & Ft. W. R. R., and was four years paymaster. In 1866 he came to Mansfield, Pennsylvania, and engaged in mercantile business until 1877. Then, in company with his father-in-law, Mr. Kennedy, he organized the Mansfield Saving & Deposit Bank. This partnership continued until 1879, but afterward Mr. Bedell successfully carried on mercantile business.
He was a member of the school board and town council. He was a member of the M. E. Church, and was a republican.
