General Notes: Husband - Perry McCuen Ramsey

---

He was reared to maturity on the old Bain homestead, and attended the Madison township district schools. After leaving school he learned the carpenter's trade. The autumn of 1869 marked his arrival at Parkers Landing. Here he secured employment with Roberts & Black, at tank building, remaining with them until the spring of 1870, when he went to Kellersburg, Armstrong County, continuing to work at his trade there for a year. Returning to Parkers Landing, he became associated with his brother, William B. Ramsey, a coal dealer, remaining with him from 1873 to 1880. In the latter year he formed a new partnership, as member of the firm of Kirkbride & Ramsey, and handled flour and all kinds of feed for a year. Mr. Ramsey then bought out his partner, and continued alone for a year, when he sold the business and embarked in the grocery trade. Until 1887 he continued to operate his grocery, then selling it and going into a teaming enterprise, which engrossed his attention until the autumn of 1893, when he went to Findlay, Ohio. For four years he was employed in that city as clerk and cashier in a wholesale and retail dry goods store. Returning once more to Parkers Landing, he interested himself in several lines until 1900, when he embarked in the custom-made clothing business, which he built up to large proportions. On April 11, 1911, responding to a well defined demand, he added a jewelry department which he found profitable, and he later put in a line of kodaks, and had a laundry and dry cleaning agency.
He represented the Second ward in the city council for six years, during the 1880s, and in November, 1913, was again elected to represent that ward in the council.
