General Notes: Husband - Hon. J. David McJunkin


He was born on the old home-stead in Centre township, Butler County, Pennsylvania. His primary education was obtained in the common schools. He subsequently spent four years at the Butler Academy, the Witherspoon Institute and West Sunbury Academy, and taught school for several years. He read law with Judge McJunkin, and was admitted to the bar June 8, 1863. In 1864 he went to Franklin, Venango County, where he prac-ticed his profession until 1878. During his residence in Franklin he was elected to the legislature, in 1869, and was re-elected in 1870 and 1871. Returning to Butler in 1873 he resumed the practice of the law. In 1879 he was connected with the Bald Ridge Oil Company, whose operations were the means of attract-ing the attention of oil men to the further development of the Butler field. Politically, he is a Republican, and in 1880 and 1882, he carried Butler county for the congressional nomination. In 1862 he served in Company G, Four-teenth Pennsylvania Militia, which was called out to assist in repelling Lee's invasion of the State. He was a member of the Presbyterian church, and always contributed liberally towards that organization.
