General Notes: Husband - Willis Dalzell Stockdale

---

He remained at home and obtained his education in the ward schools of Allegheny, Pennsylvania, the Normal School of California, Pennsylvania, and at the University of Western Pennsylvania. After finishing his education he followed the river for fourteen years, in the capacity of clerk, pilot and later master of a vessel. From 1892 to 1894 he owned and operated a ferry from Liverpool, Ohio, to Chester, West Virginia. In 1894 he severed his connection with the life of a riverman and moved to Pittsburgh, where he was associated with the office of an alderman, J. C. McMasters, of the Second ward. In 1901 he was elected to the common council from his ward, and re-elected in 1906. In 1904 he was elected as member of the school board.
In politics Mr. Stockdale was an ardent Republican, and was a member of both city and county Republican committees. He was a member of the Third Presbyterian church of Pittsburgh and was connected with the the Royal Arcanum and the Iroquois fraternities.
