General Notes: Husband - Robert John Conley


He was eighteen years of age when his parents moved to Butler County, Pennsylvania, and about this time he went to Pittsburgh and during his two years of residence there, learned the blacksmith trade with Ralph White. He then returned to Butler County and opened a shop on his father's farm in Adam's Township and conducted it successfully for five years, selling out in order to engage in cultivating a farm which he had purchased in Penn Township. Two years later he sold that property and bought another farm, near Valencia, and later also sold that, after which he embarked in a feed business and continued it for four years. For a number of years he served in various offices, having been elected frequently by the Republican party, of which he was an active member. He served multiple terms as a justice of the peace.
