General Notes: Husband - Charles Ford Adamson

---

He completed his preliminary edu­cation with his graduation from Cochranton High School in 1907 and afterward entered Edinboro Normal School, from which he was graduated in 1910. In 1935 he also took the degree of Bachelor of Science at Edinboro State Teachers' College and in 1938, after graduate work at the University of Pittsburgh, he received from that insti­tution the degree of Master of Education. Mr. Adamson also carried on graduate studies at Allegheny College, Pennsylvania State College and the University of Chicago. Meanwhile, his professional career was well under way. After teaching for two years in the rural schools of Craw­ford County, Pennsylvania, prior to the first World War, he became a high school principal and teacher in Venango County, first in Richland Township and later at Emlenton, where he spent three years. At the end of this time he was appointed assistant superintendent of schools of Crawford County, an office in which he rounded out a quarter of a century of effective service. On August 1, 1940, when the office of county superintendent of schools became vacant, he was designated to fill it. He was well known in educational circles in western Pennsylvania, was a member of the Pennsylvania State Education Association, the National Education Asso­ciation, the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the National Association of Penmanship Teachers and Supervisors. He was affiliated with the Kappa Phi Kappa fraternity. His favorite recrea­tions were travel and hiking.
