General Notes: Husband - Theodore B. Westgate

---

He received a good preliminary education in the schools of his neighborhood, supplemented by a course at a commercial college at Denver, Colorado, after which he became joint owner with his brother of the sash and blind works, established by their grandfather, and carried the business under the firm name of Westgate Brothers. They operated this business until 1884, when Arthur H. Westgate succeeded to the ownership of the whole concern. In 1886 Theodore B. Westgate removed to Titusville, Pennsylvania, and entered the employ of the American Oil Company as bookkeeper. After four years he became a partner in the company, and was elected its treasurer. In 1892 he was elected one of the managers of the Producers and Refiners Oil Company, Limited, and in 1896 he was chosen a director of the Pure Oil Company.
