General Notes: Husband - William Harrison Krug


He was two years old when his parents moved to Oil City, Pennsylvania, where he gained an excellent education in the public schools. He was first employed in the barrel shop of the Imperial Works at Oil City, a Standard Oil subsidiary, and remained there fifteen years in various capacities, acquiring a thorough knowledge of that branch of manufacture. He left there to join his cousin, the late Henry Krug, in the same industry, the partnership continuing until Henry Krug's death, in March, 1914, when his interest in the business was purchased by A. Knabb, of Warren, Pennsylvania, another partner, to whom William H. Krug soon sold out also. The concern did an extensive business, having stave mills at various points in the South and operating barrel factories at Warren and Marcus Hook, PA. The Krugs resided at the latter place, whence William H. Krug returned to their early home at Oil City when he withdrew from the manufacturing business. He was a Mason and well known in the fraternity, belonging to Lucius H. Scott Lodge, No. 352, F. & A. M., of Chester, PA; Chester Chapter, No. 258, R. A. M.; Chester Commandery, No. 66, K. T.; and LuLu Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S., of Philadelphia. In religious doctrine he was inclined toward Presbyterianism. Though in accord with the principles of the Democratic Party, he was independent about supporting men or measures, depending upon his own judgment. [HVC 1919, 867]
