General Notes: Husband - Edward McLaughlin

---

He obtained his education in the public schools of Erie, Pennsylvania, and when eighteen years of age became a fireman on the Philadelphia & Erie railroad. At the end of five years service he was promoted engineer, the goal of every fireman, a position he held with the Nickel Plate railroad until 1883, when he and his family moved to Conneaut, Ohio. While living there he was employed by the Chicago & Alton railroad. He next returned to his old position on the Nickel Plate railroad, remaining there until 1887, when he again moved, going to Goodland, Kansas, entering the employ of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad. For two years he abandoned railroad work entirely, returned east and had charge of a stationary engine in the Erie City Iron Works, at the end of this time accepting a situation as engineer on the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh railroad, making his home at Bradford, Pennsylvania. His run was from Salamanca, New York, to Dubois, Pennsylvania. His only other business interest was in the Bradford Oil Company, of which he was a stockholder. He belonged to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, was an Independent in politics, and an attendant of the Catholic church.
