General Notes: Husband - Dickson Queen Brown
He was born and reared at Pleasantville, Venango County, Pennsylvania, acquiring his preparatory education in the local schools. He was graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy and Princeton University, B. A., 1895, and subsequently took a course in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at Boston, receiving the degree of bachelor of science from that institution in 1898. For a year following he worked in the refinery of the Tide Water Oil Company at Bayonne, New Jersey, spent some months in the oil producing fields with the Associated Producers' Company, and studied a year in the Oil Research Laboratory of the Royal Technical School, Charlottenburg, Ber-lin, Germany, in order to prepare himself thoroughly for his chosen calling, the field of industry in which his father had won such distinction. He filled various important positions in the Tide Water Companies, his youthful training and familiarity with the oil business proving of great practical value in these associations, and combining technical knowledge with executive ability is remarkably well fitted for almost any of the responsibilities of operation or direction. His present business connections are with the Tide Water Oil Com-pany, of which he is second vice president; the Associated Producers' Company, of which he is president; the Tidal Oil Company (formerly the Okla Oil Company), of which he is president; the Tide Water Pipe Line Com-pany, Limited, of which he is secretary; the Tide Water Company of Massachusetts, of which he is vice president: the Magnetic Iron Ore Company; and other concerns. His offices are at No. 11 Broadway, New York City. Socially he is a member of the Tiger Inn Club (Princeton), Sigma Chi fraternity, University Club, Automobile Club of America, Princeton Club, Apawamis Club, Engineers' Club, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and others, principally scientific and outdoor organizations. He maintains a public-spirited interest in public affairs and keeps in familiar touch with them, though he has no taste for official honors. [HVC 1919, 691]
