General Notes: Husband - Milton Bruce Kerr


He spent his boyhood on the home farm. He then learned the tanning business with Perry Coovert, in Slippery Rock Town-ship, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and continued to be interested as long as the business was profitable, after which he became a manufacturer of staves, having a stave yard at Butler, and for six-teen years he made staves for the Stand-ard Oil Company. In 1895 he moved to Mars, Butler County, and from then until he retired, was engaged in the oil business.
