General Notes: Husband - Arthur E. Conn

---

Public schools of Emlenton, Pennsylvania, provided his early formal education. As a lad he went to work in the Emlenton woolen mills as a bobbin boy, and for the twenty years following he remained in the same industry. His advancement was steady and continuous, and at the close of that twenty-year period he was superintendent of the Richland Mills. In 1915 he went to Mount Jewett as bookkeeper with the firm of Thompson & Company, en­gaged in the hardware business and handling oil well supplies, lumber and the like. In 1923 Mr. Conn bought this business and proceeded to operate it independently. Carrying on the work of this firm for over twenty years, he was recognized as one of Mount Jewett's leading citizens. He is president and a director of the Mount Jewett Improvement Society, president of the Mount Jewett National Bank, director of the local Rotary Club, and a leading Republican there. During the first World War he effectively served his country as a par­ticipant in different drives and campaigns, though years earlier he gave active service with the United States Cavalry forces in the Spanish-American War and spent three years in Cuba. He was a member of the Spanish-American War Veterans' Association in Warren and of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Kane. In the Free and Accepted Masons he was affiliated with Mount Jewett Lodge, No. 627, of which he was treasurer, and with Coudersport Consistory, Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, and Zem Zem Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. For ten years he was treasurer of the Methodist Church, in whose affairs he was active.
In his spare time, he enjoyed woodworking as a hobby, and devoted considerable time and attention to it.
