General Notes: Husband - Edward Lowry Hutchinson

---

He was left an orphan at an early age, and attended the public schools but a short time, when he entered the employ of J. H. Ellerman, the hatter. He subsequently became a clerk in the cashier's office of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and continued there for seven years, when he removed to Beaver Falls to accept a position as bookkeeper for the Emerson, Smith & Co. Saw Works. He continued in that capacity for about six years, when he was taken into the firm, and was elected secretary; he was also vice-president. He served in that position without a break since his first incumbency, and bacome one of the leading business men of the town. The plant was located on Fourteenth street, and covered an area of three acres. It was a large stone building, and in addition, there were the engine rooms and office buildings. They turned out saws, knives and all other edged tools, which were placed on the market in all parts of the world. They employed a force of ninety men.
Politically, Mr. Hutchinson was a Republican. He was a trustee of the Presbyterian church.

His father died when he was a child of three years, and he first attended school in St. Louis, Missouri, whither his mother had gone upon the death of her husband. When his mother's death left him an orphan he returned to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and entered the home of his Aunt Eliza Armstrong, his two brothers making their home with Grandfather William Hutchinson. The dependency of his position filled him with a desire to make his own way in the world, and in gratification of this feeling he obtained a position as messenger boy in a hatter's store in that city, where he worked for six years, then spending eight years more in the city of Pittsburgh, his employment being of different natures. In 1878 he came to Beaver County, and accepted a position in the office of Emerson, Ford and Company, of Beaver Falls, manufacturers of saws. The company, when he began relations therewith, was but four years old, organization having been effected in 1874. Ten years after its formation and six years after he had entered its service, a reorganization was made, the name being changed to Emerson, Smith and Company, Limited, Mr. Hutchinson being placed upon the officiary as secretary and becoming owner of some of the company's stock. In 1913, through the death of Julius Kurtz, Mr. Hutchinson was elected chairman and treasurer, Thomas Carroll succeeding to his former position. He affiliated with the Masonic order, was a trustee of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics is a Republican, having served for six years as a member of the school board of Beaver Falls.
