General Notes: Husband - Hugh Conway Dorworth

---

He was graduated from the Oil City, Pennsylvania, High School, in 1888, and from Allegheny College four years later, a civil engineer. Since youth he had been making his own livelihood and worked his way through college to a profession, which he followed for about a half dozen years. In 1895 he became associated with the Ohio Oil Company and was in charge of the lease department when he decided to study law. Admit­ted to the bar in 1898, he remained with the Ohio Oil Company until 1902, when he initiated an independent practice as an attorney. His previous experience in engineering and the petroleum business proved in­valuable in his professional work. He specialized in real estate and corporation law. On July 8, 1908, he joined the legal department of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and was appointed solicitor for the subsidiary pipe line companies in the states of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia and Kentucky. Upon dissolution of the Stand­ard Oil Company of New Jersey, he was appointed gen­eral counsel for the National Transit Company and Na­tional Transit Pump & Machine Company and solicitor of the Southern Group of Pipe Lines. From 1905 to 1908, Mr. Dorworth was Venango County solicitor. He was a member of the Venango County Bar Society; his college fraternity was Sigma Alpha Epsilon. A Republican in politics and influential in party matters, his civic activities were confined chiefly to local develop­ment and better government. He worshiped in the Pres­byterian Church. Hunting and fishing ranked high among
his recreations, and he indulged both sports at his sum­mer cottage on the Allegheny River, a dozen miles above Oil City.
