General Notes: Husband - William Scott Blair


He grew up in Porter township, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, and received his education in the public schools. He remained on the homestead, assisting his father until he reached the age of twenty-three years. From 1883 to 1890 he worked the place on his own account, in the latter year going to Elk County, where he was employed by the W. H. Hyde Lumber Company, of Ridgway, until 1898. For the next two years he acted as superintendent of the Ridgway Water Works, and then for two years was employed in the electrical and dynamo department of the Ridgway Dynamo & Engine Company. From 1902 he resided at South Bethlehem, in Armstrong County, and was in the employ of the C. E. Andrews Company, of New Bethlehem, as assistant foreman of the planing mill. He became very well known in that connection and in various other activities. In 1908 he was elected justice of the peace for South Bethlehem, and he was a prominent member of the First Presbyterian Church of New Bethlehem, of which he was an elder for seven years. He was a member of the Knights of the Maccabees, and in political connection was a Republican.
