General Notes: Husband - Marshall D. McWhinney


He was born in Allegheny City, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and was very young when the family removed to Edgewood. His education was acquired in the public schools and in the Western University of Pennsylvania. His first step in his business career was in the business of his father, which he learned practically in all its details, and upon the retirement of his father he carried on the business very successfully alone until 1883, at which time he sold it and devoted his time and attention to his real estate affairs, which had grown to a considerable magnitude. He came to be closely connected with all real estate undertakings of any importance in that section of the township, and was one of the most influential men in the financial affairs of the district. He took an active interest in all matters concerning the Republican party, and was an early and able worker for its success in every direction. He was one of the directors of the Edgewood School Board for over nine years, and at one time was president of the board. His religious affiliations were with the First Presbyterian church of Edgewood, of which he was a member. He was also a member of Crescent Lodge, F. and A. M., Shiloh Chapter, R. A. M., Pittsburg Commandery, No. 1, K. T., Pennsylvania Consistory, A. O. S. R., 32d degree, Syria Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S., and the Royal Arcanum, all of Pittsburgh.
