General Notes: Husband - William F. Bell


The public schools of Lewisburg and Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, were the scenes in which his student years were passed, his studies being discontinued when he was in his senior year in the high school of the latter place. In 1881 he obtained a position as messenger in the bank of the Harmony Society at Beaver Falls, not long afterward becoming bookkeeper, remaining in the employ of that bank under the tutelage of George W. Morrison. He became connected with the First National Bank of Beaver Falls in 1888, from 1888 until 1893 as teller, being made assistant cashier in the latter year. In 1903 he became cashier of the institution. For about the same length of time that he has been an employee of the First National he has been secretary of the People's Building and Loan Association. On state and national issues he is a sympathizer with the Republican principles, but locally he held an independent political course, and served as treasurer of the city of Beaver Falls. His religious affiliation was with the Presbyterian church, and he held membership in the Masonic order, having attained the Knights Templar degree, and the Modern Woodmen of the World.
