General Notes: Husband - William W. Park

---

During many years he was one of the leading farmers and fruit growers of Lake Township, Mercer County, PA, and the proprietor of Pleasant View Fruit Farm. He was born on the farm in Wolf Creek Township, later owned by Gilbert Johnson. From the Gordon school in that vicinity he passed to the Grove City College, and completed his training in the New Wilmington College. After leaving the school room he was for two years engaged in a mercantile business at New Wilmington, and going from there to Kilgore he was similarly employed during another two years, while during the four succeeding years he was in the mercantile business in Bethel, and then for two years was a merchant at Coitsville, Ohio. Returning at the close of that period to Mercer County, he in 1887 purchased the Pleasant Valley Fruit Farm of one hundred acres. This was excellent land, perhaps the best in Lake Township, and was admirably adapted to its purposes.
As a representative of the Democracy, Mr. Park always took an active part in political work, and was five times elected a justice of the peace of Lake Township, but twice he did not take out his commission. He also served one term as a school director in Wolf Creek Township, one term as a member of the school board of Bethel borough and one term as the auditor of Lake Township. He was a member of the Royal Arcanum at New Wilmington and of the Bethany Presbyterian Church. [HMC 1909, 943]
