General Notes: Husband - Oliver C. Harris

---

After completing a course of study in the public schools of his birthplace he learned his father's trade and for many years made that his business. In later years he still contracted for such work, but performed little of the actual labor involved personally, a corps of workmen executing the contracts awarded him. Besides his work at his trade, his only other business connection was as director of the Beaver County Building and Loan Association, a position he held for a number of years.
Mr. Harris was prominently identified with public affairs in Beaver County for many years, as a Republican having been elected judge of elections on several occasions, for twenty-two years a member of the New Brighton school board, and was in 1900 elected register and recorder for a term of three years.
The Sunday school of the First Methodist Episcopal Church of New Brighton felt the beneficial effects of his earnest workings for sixteen years, during which time he was at its head as superintendent, when the Sunday school had a larger enrollment than that of any other school in the county.
His fraternal relations were with the Royal Arcanum, the Woodmen of the World, and the Protective Home Circle.
