General Notes: Husband - Clyde Clair Smith

---

He completed his formal schooling in Conewango Township, Warren County, Pennsylvania, then turned his attention to differ­ent business affairs in his native district. He conducted the Smith Livery in earlier days, operating it on the site of the later C. C. Smith Company, Inc. Later he man­aged the Masterson Transfer Company, in Warren, and the Chautauqua Storage & Transfer Company, in James­town, New York. After a time he sold the Warren enterprise. In 1922 he incorporated the C. C. Smith Com­pany, Inc., and took over the agency for the Hudson and Essex automobiles. In 1933, discontinuing that line, he took over the Dodge and Plymouth cars, which he handled for the rest of his career. For forty-two years he was a leading figure in Warren affairs, both in business and in public life, and he held the highest respect of his contemporaries.
He was long an influential Democrat and a member of the First Methodist Church of Warren. Many organiza­tions, particularly in the sphere of fraternalism, claimed his attention, and he was a member of Warren Lodge, No. 223, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and Warren Lodge No. 339, Independent Order of Odd Fel­lows.
