General Notes: Husband - John R. Packard, Esq.

---

Greenville, Mercer Co, PA

He was reared in Lordstown, Trumbull County, Ohio, and educated in the common schools and a select academy conducted by Rev. Joseph King, of the Disciple Church, and subsequently taught school in that vicinity. In 1852 he began clerking in his brother's hardware store in Warren, Ohio, and in the spring of 1854 went to Greenville and entered into partnership with his uncle, Dr. D. B. Packard, and his brother Warren, of Warren, Ohio, as Packard & Co. After three years his brother sold his interest to the other partners, who continued the business until 1870, when Dr. Packard retired and John R. continued alone as head of the firm.

He was a member of the Masonic fraternity. He was in comfortable financial circumstances and enjoyed the luxuries of travel. He made two complete trips around the world, starting east in 1907 and westward in 1908. In the course of his extended travels, he traversed Siberia, Russia and other countries of the world and visited nearly all the states and territories of the United States.
