General Notes: Husband - Joseph Roland Curry


He was about six years old when his parents removed to Gastonville, Pennsylvania, where he was reared. His educational training was obtained in the township schools, the old Southwestern Academy at California, Pennsylvania, and at the Iron City Business College, Pittsburgh. About 1872 he removed to Darlington, Beaver County, where he operated a general store until 1878, then went to Missouri, where he engaged in farming on a tract of 160 acres, which he still owned after, in 1880, he returned to Gastonville, where he then dealt in real estate and life insurance. Mr. Curry served multiple terms as notary public, was a Democrat in politics and was elected by that party justice of the peace in 1910.
