General Notes: Husband - John A. Green


He was educated in the public schools and for twenty-six terms engaged in teaching and also taught in several summer Normal schools. He then became manager for the Wister Supply Company and was superintendent for a time, taking charge in the spring of 1906. He was one of the pioneer merchants at Irvona but moved from that place to Glen Hope, where he spent six years and then returned to Irvona where he engaged in an insurance and real estate business for some years. In politics he was a Democrat and was very active in party affairs and served as the first treasurer of Irvona borough. In 1909 he was elected a justice of the peace.
His family belonged to the Methodist Episcopal church at Irvona. Mr. Green was a member of Glen Hope Lodge, No. 669, Odd Fellows, and also of the Encampment at Glen Hope, Pa.

He was a man of scholarly tastes and during his long period of educational work impressed himself forcibly on his pupils and it was not an unusual occurrence for him to have personal messages from them from either coast, or from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico.
