General Notes: Husband - Charlton M. "Charley" Liggett


During his boyhood his parents moved to the village of Independence, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he attended the common schools, and assisted his father as clerk in the store. He afterward took a position with the wholesale grocery house of J. A. Miller, of Wheeling, West Virginia, with whom he remained two years. He then accepted a similar situation at an increased salary with Nicholas Schultz, of the same city, where he remained about the same length of time. The experience thus gained gave him much valuable experience in mercantile life, and also made him acquainted with the leading merchants of eastern Ohio, western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. After leaving the employ of Mr. Schultz, he engaged in the manufacture of cigars, being the proprietor of a factory in Steubenville, Ohio. In the year 1877 he sold this business, and returning to Washington County.
