General Notes: Husband - John L. Mitchell
He grew up on the old homestead, and followed farming until manhood. He afterward engaged in lumbering and merchandising and thus accumulated his financial start in life. He was one of the first men in Venango County, Pennsylvania, to engage in oil prospecting, and put down, on the Buchanan farm in Cornplanter township, one of the first wells in the oil country. From that time until he entered the banking business, he was one of the most extensive and successful operators of the county. In 1871 he was one of the organizers of the Exchange Bank of Franklin, and has been president of that institution since its inception. In politics Mr. Mitchell has been a supporter of the Republican party since its organiza-tion, but has taken little active interest in public affairs. Commencing life poor he has by steady application, persevering industry, and close attention to his business accumulated a handsome fortune, and is to-day one of the solid, substantial financiers of the Allegheny valley. [HVC 1890, 787]
