General Notes: Husband - Thomas Anderson Lovell
He was only a boy when the family settled at the home in Scrubgrass Township, Venango County, PA, and part of his early education was acquired in the local pubic schools. He also attended the Fox Academy at Emlenton, which borough lies six miles southeast of the farm, and pursued his higher studies in Westminster College, a United Presbyterian educational institution at New Wilmington, PA. Until his father's death they worked together on the farm, his father erecting a new house there for him at the time of his marriage, and they cooperated well in its management and the practical part of its operation. William B. Lovell always favoring advanced ideas and adopting improved methods promptly when convinced of their superiority. Every device of proved worth for preserving the fertility of the soil or increasing its productiveness has been put into practice on this land. Stock is kept in abundance, several tons of limestone are added to the surface yearly, and phosphate as well as other commercial fertilizers used freely. The soil is naturally good, and has responded well to proper treatment, the annual yield of several crops being of profitable size. In appearance, and as a residence property, it is unexcelled, Mr. Lovell having found it possible as well as agreeable to keep all his surroundings in attractive order. His residence occupies a commanding position and most desirable location, the handsome house and tastefully arranged surroundings drawing favorable notice from all passers-by. Forethought and energetic care are everywhere apparent, the place being beautiful with no ostentatious display. Mr. Lovell takes proper pride in his horses, keeping a good grade for general purposes. Now as in his father's time the farm contains 184 acres, except for the acre which he set off in 1892 for the use of Rankin M. E. Church so long as devoted to religious purposes, and an acre sold as a site for the Lovell schoolhouse. [CAB, 814]
