General Notes: Husband - Frank E. Troutman

---

He attended the grade and high schools of Butler, Pennsylvania, and thence entered Mercersburg Academy, whence he was graduated in the class of 1904. He matriculated at Lehigh University, which graduated him in 1908 with the degree of Mechanical Engineer. Direct from the halls of the university into the plant of the Standard Plate Glass Company, Mr. Troutman took his place in the beginning of things there and before he finished his education in glass making he had "gone through" every department. In 1914 he was, therefore, fully equipped to fill the office of superintendent of the plant and he was appointed to that position. He occupied that office until his father passed away, whereupon he was chosen to succeed him as president. Mr. Troutman was a member of the house of A. Troutman's Sons, founded by his grandfather, and the largest department store in Butler County. He was president and a director of the South Side Bank of Butler, and a director of the Butler Savings & Trust Company. In political affairs Mr. Troutman was of the Republican persuasion. He was a director of the Board of Commerce, and a member of the Country and Sterling Clubs of Butler, and a member of the Duquesne and University clubs of Pittsburgh. His religious connection was with the Lutheran Church at Butler, and he was a member of the church board.
