General Notes: Husband - Aaron Hervey Kerr

---

Cross Creek, Washington Co, PA - a merchant

He passed his boyhood days in assisting his father in the store, and thus gained a knowledge of mercantile life, which was the foundation of his career as one of the most successful business men of Washington County. He attended Duff's Business College, at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, from which he graduated in 1868. He then took charge of the extensive business of his father (who had died two years previous), having the entire management of the store. In 1867, when but seventeen years of age, he made his first eastern trip to replenish his stock of goods.
He was connected with the Burgettstown National Bank beginning at its organization, first as a stockholder and member of the first board of directors, then as vice-president, and later president of that institution, having been unanimously elected at the January meeting of directors in 1887.
In religion he was a member and treasurer of the Cross Creek Presbyterian Church. In politics he was always a stanch member of the Republican party.

He continued the operation of the store at Cross Creek for thirty-three years and moved to Burgettstown in 1895. He had been identified with the banking interests of the place since 1879.
