General Notes: Husband - Alfred C. Hurst


He was born at Kingswood Hill, near Bristol, England, and came with his parents to America at the age of four years. His whole life since that event was passed in Bridgewater, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, where he first attended the common schools of the place, and finished his education at Coulter's Academy, Richmond, Ohio. His first business experience was in connection with a clerkship on the steamers "Convoy" and "Rocket," plying between Pittsburgh and other points on the Ohio river. Later he entered his father's store, of which he in 1863 became sole proprietor, and has since that time been extensively engaged in the retail dry goods and carpet trade. He was largely identified with the interests of the county of his residence, and was director of the First National Banks of Rochester and of Beaver, director of the Rochester Pottery Company, limited; of the Union Street Railway Company; president of the Equitable Building and Loan Association Number Two; director of the Equitable Building and Loan Association Number One; and of the Bridgewater Building Association.
He was for several years school director and councilman, and beginning in 1875 was treasurer of the school board of Bridgewater. He was an active Mason and member of Rochester Lodge No. 229 of that order and of Eureka Chapter No. 167, of Rochester.
