General Notes: Husband - Eugene A. McColly

---

He secured his early education in the district schools of his native town, and later continued his studies in the Sewickley Academy, Mount Pleasant township, until he had reached the age of eighteen years, having made the best use of the excellent advantages thus afforded him. After leaving school he learned the trade of harness-making, to which he devoted his attention for several years, during the greater portion of which he resided in Ligonier and Pleasant Unity, and then became a traveling manager for a large manufacturing concern, in whose service he continued for a number of years. As traveling salesman, his territory was in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio and Maryland. Upon retiring from this position he engaged in the marble and granite business in Ligonier, Westmoreland County, where he maintained his residence and business headquarters until 1898, when he came to Latrobe, where he continued operations in the same line of enterprise, building up a large and prosperous business, drawing his trade from a wide radius of country.
In his political proclivities he was an uncompromising advocate of the cause of the Prohibition party. He and Mrs. McColly were valued members of the Methodist church in which work they took an active part, while the family was prominent and popular in the social life of the community. He was a member of the Ligonier Lodge, F. and A. M., also the I. O. O. F.
