General Notes: Husband - Paul Euwer
He attended the public schools of Jeannette, Pennsylvania, and in 1920 he was graduated from the Lawrenceville Preparatory School, at Lawrenceville, New Jersey. He took the degree of Bachelor of Science at Princeton University in 1924. Becoming associated with his father's furniture business at Jeannette, he proceeded to learn all the details connected with it, and was made its vice-president and general manager. The enterprise was second to none of its size in the state with respect to its completeness in home furnishings, and it had the reputation of selling to more homes than did any furniture store of the sort in Westmoreland County. For years it was widely known for its Hoosier cabinets, selling more of these than any store in the United States operating in a city of fewer than 1,500 inhabitants. The establishment came to be known as "Euwers Truly," a name affectionately applied to it by the townspeople.
Taking a lively part in the affairs of Jeannette, Mr. Euwer was president of the Jeannette Chamber of Commerce. Politically he supported the Republican party and its principles and candidates. He was active in many civic and social projects, being chairman of the Boy Scouts in Zone No. 2 and a member of the Alumni Council of the Lawrenceville School, from which he was graduated. He was captain of the Princeton baseball team in 1924, and in 1922 and 1923 he played on the university football team. He was captain of both the football and baseball teams at Lawrenceville. He was connected with the Students' Army Training Corps at Princeton University during the period of the first World War. He was a member of the Greensburg Country Club, the Princeton-Harvard-Yale Club, the Tiger Inn Club and the Free and Accepted Masons. He worshipped in the faith of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
