General Notes: Husband - Dr. William E. Errett
He received his education at the public schools of his native place and afterwards at the old Greensburg Academy. Still later he attended the California State Normal School, at California, Pennsylvania, and at the same time he taught in a school in Fayette County. In the meanwhile he had decided upon a medical career, and with this end in view entered the West Pennsylvania Medical College, later known as the Western University of Pennsylvania, at Pittsburgh, from which institution he was graduated with the class of 1900. He was one of a small group of students to receive class honors out of a class of fifty-eight, and established a remarkably high record for scholarship during his course. Immediately after his graduation Dr. Errett went to the town of New Stanton, in Hempfield township, and on September 17, 1900, opened his office there. From the outset he met with great success, and came to enjoy an extensive general practice, covering the entire territory around about that community and which he knew as a child as his native region. He erected a handsome brick residence, where also was situated his office, in the heart of the village of New Stanton, which was located about six miles south of Greensburg. Dr. Errett was a man of strong religious feelings and was associated with the Lutheran church at New Stanton, in which he held the office of deacon. He was devoted to outdoor pastimes of all kinds, but particularly to hunting and fishing, and in this manner he spent his vacations, or in extended auto tours, during the course of which he visited as far away as North Carolina.
