General Notes: Husband - Daniel H. St. Cyr Core


He attended the public schools of Washington, Pennsylvania, and completed his education at the Washington and Jefferson Preparatory School. A bent toward mathematics early displayed itself.
Mr. Core began his banking career as clerk in the First National Bank of Ford City in 1899. Thereafter he studied banking methods from many angles, beginning in minor positions and gradually working up and in many institutions. In 1902 he joined the staff of the Central National Bank of Wilkinsburg, where he was quickly advanced to the position of teller and assistant cashier. His next move was to the Farmers' National Bank of Freeport, in 1904, as cashier, and he was one of its organizers. The larger opportunity of the South Side Trust Company of Pittsburgh called him to that institution as assistant treasurer, and ever zealous to broaden his banking knowledge, Mr. Core accepted the tender and remained there until 1908. In that year he returned to the First National Bank of Ford City, as assistant cashier. On January 10, he was elected cashier. In January, 1922, he was chosen a director of the First National.
Mr. Core enlisted in July, 1916, for service on the Mexican Border, and was commissioned captain of Company K, 16th Pennsylvania Infantry, National Guard, serving thus on the border until January 9, 1917. This hard and intensive training stood him in good stead during the World War. He served with the same company, which was later merged with the 112th Infantry, 28th Division (known as the Keystone Division), of the United States Army. Captain Core was later detailed to the Regimental Staff as Personnel Adjutant, and in this capacity served with the regiment throughout its service in France. He participated in many important engagements and was honorably discharged May 8, 1919. Mr. Core was past commander of the American Legion, and president of the Kiwanis Club, of Ford City, Pennsylvania. His other clubs were: The Kittanning Country and the Bankers' of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was a member of Beta Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons of Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania; of Kittanning Lodge, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks; and the Royal Arcanum.
