General Notes: Husband - William J. Boggs

---

He received his educational training in the district school, and worked on a farm while acquiring it. When he was eighteen years old he began teaching school, and continued in this line for three years. Following this, for two years, he was city salesman for a Pittsburgh wholesale house, and then went to Wheeling, West Virginia, and for twelve years was in a commission business. In 1892 he came to Ford City, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where he engaged with the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company for sixteen years, rising to be bookkeeper and paymaster, but resigned to accept his appointment, in 1907, as postmaster of Ford City. Mr. Boggs was reappointed postmaster in 1911. Previous to his appointment as postmaster he was for thirteen years a member of the board of education, acting as president of that body for three years and treasurer for six years.

He was a member of the Knights of Pythias. His religious connection was with the Presbyterian Church, and he served as chairman of the board of trustees.
