General Notes: Husband - James Kinnear
When grown to manhood, he learned the trade of a millwright, and accompanying his father to Tidioute, Warren County, Pennsylvania, he assisted in building nearly every mill in that vicinity during his younger days. He was an expert workman at his calling, and was known to be the best hand to dress mill-stones for miles around; hence his services were much in demand. He built the first steam mill in that locality, and in 1853 he also built a grist mill on Tidioute Creek, selling both a little later to a Mr. LeBeau, of New York, son-in-law of Commodore Vanderbilt, together with other property. When the oil industry was in its infancy Mr. Kinnear discontinued working at his trade, and began to deal in real estate, buying land and selling to parties in New York and other large cities, who desired to invest money in operating oil wells upon such lands. After continuing to deal in land for a few years, he reaped such a handsome competency that he was enabled to retire from active business relatively early in life. He was one of the founders of the Tidioute Savings Bank.
He was formerly a Whig, but became a Republican. He served as a captain of the State Militia. He was a good and faithful member of the M. E. Church, having served as trustee for that church, and as class leader for a period of over twenty years.
