General Notes: Husband - Charles Willis Cassiday


He was born in Barkeyville, Venango County, Pennsylvania, and there he spent his early years obtaining his education in the public schools of the village. At the early age of fifteen years he entered the oil business. After spending three years in a position of little importance, he was placed in charge of a plant owned by Lewis Emery, being promoted in 1889 to the position of gauger. Having been offered a situation as superintendent of the Horse Shoe Oil Company, at Chipmunk, New York, he resigned from the employ of Lewis Emery and went to New York, where he remained for two years. His service with the South Penn Oil Company, began in 1902, and after pleasant and profitable relations with this company for ten years, he rose to the position of assistant superintendent. His vote was always cast in favor of the Republican party, of which he was a loyal supporter. He attended the Methodist Episcopal church. His fraternities were the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, No. 234; the Protected Home Circle, both of Bradford, Pennsylvania; and Tuna Lodge, No. 411, Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
