General Notes: Husband - William Myers Gormly


He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, obtaining his education in the city public schools and Letitz Academy. The wholesale grocery business founded by his grandfather had passed out of the family name before he came upon the scene of business action, and he began his active career with their successors, S. Ewart & Company, located on Seventh avenue, Pittsburgh. He began as a clerk, and subsequently gained several promotions. A Republican in politics, he served a term as school director; was a member of Lodge, Chapter, Commandery and Shrine of the Masonic order; was a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and of the First Presbyterian Church.
