General Notes: Husband - William Hiram Swart

---

He was born in Tenmile township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. After preparation in the public schools, he attended the California State Normal School and the Bethany College. Upon the completion of his education he went to Cleveland, Ohio, where he held a responsible position in the freight department of the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway Company from 1892 to 1896. He then went to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he formed a business connection with Francis L. Robins, buying coal lands for him until 1906. After that time he was identified, independently and extensively, with real estate interests. In 1908 he purchased an acre of land, laid it out in building lots, sold these, and the town of Dormont was located on that site. After this he made many purchases of land, laid them out in a similar manner, and sold them. He built a house for himself on Melrose avenue. His business is transacted under the name of The Mount Lebanon Realty Company. Mr. Swart was independent in his political opinions.
