General Notes: Husband - Orr Buffington

---

He received his preparatory edu­cation in private schools in his native town and later attended Trinity College, at Hart­ford, Connecticut, from which he was graduated in 1879. He carried on his law studies under the direction of Hon. James B. Neale and his elder brother, Joseph Buffington, and after his admission to the bar of Armstrong county, in the year 1881, entered into partnership with that brother for practice. His brother moved to Pittsburgh in 1892, and in 1903 he became associated in professional work with Oliver W. Gilpin. His legal career was one of hard work and continued success and he maintained the high standing attaching to the Buffington name in legal circles. He also found time for active participa­tion in the borough government, giving able service as burgess and as member of the school board; his interest in the question of public education was always strong, and he did his share in forwarding the cause in his home community.
