General Notes: Husband - Mortimore Bruce Campbell


He at­tended the public schools and there laid the broad foundation for an education upon which, through subsequent study, reading and travel, he built an education of great practical value. He was employed in the oil fields of Pennsylvania for many years, became a drill­ing contractor, and from 1886 to 1889 was en­gaged in drilling test wells for oil, covering the likely territory between Bradford, Penn­sylvania, and Fort Scott, Kansas. He was later superintendent of the Butte Petroleum Company at Moorcroft, Wyoming, a position he occupied for more than ten years. He was a Republican in politics, and a Presbyterian in religious faith.
