General Notes: Husband - Robert H. McGarvey

---

After he had finished attending school, he engaged in farming for his father until 1881 and then went to Utahville, Pennsylvania, where he was in a lumber business for eighteen months. He moved from there to Jordan Township, where he followed farming for one and one-half years and in 1884 moved to Ansonville. In 1885 he moved to Gazzam, Pennsylvania, where he conducted a mercantile business and was postmaster for three years, when he returned to the homestead and conducted operations there until 1893, when he moved to Cambria County, where he resumed merchandising and also was again appointed postmaster. In 1894 he was elected a justice of the peace for that borough and served for five years. In 1900 he again came back to the farm and did a large amount of clearing there, cutting timber for the saw mill.
He was identified with the Masonic fraternity beginning in 1897, attending lodge at Ebensburg. In politics, a Republican, he was frequently the choice of his party for office.
