General Notes: Husband - Henry Oliver


He was educated at the public schools of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and at Allegheny City. He also attended Yale University, from which he graduated with the class of 1885. A few years later he became a chemist at the Oliver Iron and Steel Company's works, where he remained several years. He next became superintendent of the Hainsworth Steel Company and retained that position after the company was acquired by the American Steel and Wire Company. Subsequently he became general superintendent of the Shoenburger works of the American Steel and Wire Company, which position he resigned in October, 1902, to become vice-president of the Oliver and Snyder Steel Company. Upon the death in 1905 of James B. Oliver (his uncle), he was elected president of the Oliver and Snyder Steel Company.
