General Notes: Husband - Sumner B. Badger
He grew to manhood on the home farm in Brady Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and was educated in the public schools and West Sunbury Academy and was graduated from the latter institution in 1891. He had qualified himself so thoroughly that he then passed the State examination demanded for teachers and thus secured a permanent certificate. He began to teach in Lancaster Township and after one term there, taught two terms in Brady Township and five years in Concord Township, during three years of this period being also in a mercantile business at Troutman, under the firm name of Balsiger & Badger. In July, 1895, after selling his interest at Troutman to his partner, Mr. Badger came to Boydstown and in the same summer erected a commodious building, which he utilized both as a store and a dwelling. In October, 1895, he was appointed postmaster at this point and served until 1903, when Rural Mail Delivery, Route No. 2, was established, out from Butler.
He was an elder in the North Butler Presbyterian Church and for eight years or more was superintendent of the Sunday School.
