General Notes: Husband - Morris Lobengier Painter

---

He attended the common schools of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and at thirteen years of age entered a printing office in Lancaster, where he remained for four years. He worked on the Pittsburgh Dispatch and an old paper called the Republic. At about eighteen he assumed charge of the Painter salt works on Sewickley creek. In 1869 he went to Venango County and was engaged there and in Clarion for nine years in different avocations with varying fortunes. In 1878 he came to Westmoreland County and assisted his father in his large and varied business interests until his father's death. As one of his father's administrators he spent two years in settling up the large estate. In 1886 he became interested in coke manufacture at Tarr's station, and with A. W. Mellon, of Pittsburgh, erected two hundred ovens, which they sold to a syndicate in 1887. Following this he engaged in buying and selling coal lands and in building houses.
