General Notes: Husband - Uriah J. Matson

---

He resided at Falls Creek, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, where he was manager of the brick plant; later was living at Ithaca, New York.

In the public schools of his native city he obtained a good practical education, which was supplemented by a course in the Clarion State Normal. He began his career as a lumberman, and for four years was interested in that industry. Subsequently for the same length of time he engaged in mercantile pursuits in Brookville, but in 1891 sold his store and moved to Falls Creek, where he embarked in the extensive manufacturer of brick. His plant was equipped with modern machinery, and had a capacity of 30,000 brick per day. The plant was located one mile west of Falls Creek.
In politics he was independent, but usually supported the men and measures of the Democratic party.
