General Notes: Husband - James E. Claypoole

---

Worthington, Armstrong Co, PA

He attended the local schools, the Slate Lick high school and the Worthington Select School, after which he accepted a clerical position in the store of W. F. Rumberger, of Craigsville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and remained there for one year. From 1873 until 1886 he was a clerk in the store of Graff & Firth, of Buffalo Mills, and then was promoted to manager, at which time he became a stockholder as well as superintendent of the Buffalo Woolen Mills. These mills were established in 1865. The product up to 1888 was largely flannels and stocking yarns; but thereafter the main product was wool bed blankets, which were in great demand.
For forty-five years he was an active member of the Presbyterian Church, in which he was a trustee for more than forty years and a teacher in the Sunday school for over twenty years. He was a member as well as the leader of the choir ever since he united with the church, in 1868.
