General Notes: Husband - W. Sloss Bloom


After marriage, he and his wife went to housekeeping on a farm which they bought from John F. Read, which was known in the neighborhood as the Joseph Tait farm. This was a farm of 100 acres, which was situated three miles south of Clearfield, Pennsylvania. All the attractive and substantial buildings were built by Mr. and Mrs. Bloom. He was an excellent business man and in addition to general agriculture, including some stock raising, opened up a coal bank, a 42-inch vein which was very profitable. Later a 32-inch vein was opened. After his death, his widow took charge of the place and showed excellent business capacity and every branch of the farm industries continued in a flourishing condition.
