General Notes: Husband - George W. Dambach

---

He was educated in the public schools in his native township, then at Evans City, and later at a commercial college at New Castle, Pennsylvania. After he left school he entered into a mercantile business at Petersville, Butler County, where he continued for three years and then went to Pittsburgh, where he engaged in a grocery business for three more years, after which, in 1896, he came to Ellwood City. He purchased an interest with Dambach Brothers & Company, and took an active part in the business for six years afterward. In 1902 the firm, through incorporation, became the Dambach Mercantile Company, and in 1907, George W. Dambach was elected president of the concern. The building at Nos. 601-603 Lawrence Avenue, was erected in 1902, and the stock carried and the volume of business done, made this the largest enterprise of its kind in the city. A force of twelve employes was kept busy.
He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church. Politically he was affiliated with the Republican party. Fraternally he belonged to Alma Lodge, No. 420, Knights of Pythias, and also to the Golden Eagles.
