General Notes: Husband - J. Henry Geer


As a boy he attended the New Brighton public schools, in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and for a life trade he decided upon that of steel roller, and for twenty-three years served the Beaver Falls Steel Company in that capacity. After coming to New Brighton from Butler County with his mother in 1868 that place was his residence, with the exception of three years when official duties necessitated his living in Beaver. In 1899 he was elected sheriff of Beaver County, taking the oath of office on January 1, 1900, the representative of the Republican party, upon whose ticket his name had appeared. After that he served as a member of the New Brighton council for two terms, one year in the state office of inspector of state highways, besides filling the unexpired term of John G. Hillman as county treasurer, the latter having died while in his office. On May 21, 1912, Mr. Geer received the governor's appointment as superintendent of state highways of the thirteenth district. He was a director of the Beaver County Building and Loan Association, and belonged to the Junior Order of United American Mechanics, the Royal Arcanum, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and the American Road Builders' Association.
