General Notes: Husband - Albert G. Corbett


He grew up on his father's farm in Clarion township, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, and his education was obtained in the public schools near his home and a three years' course at the Glade Run Academy. He then became a clerk in a general store at Corsica, Pennsylvania, and in 1877 he removed to Clarion and opened a drug store on Main street, which he conducted for over thirty years. In addition to this he was interested in oil and gas ventures at various times, and served in the capacity of president of the East Gellico Coal Company of Tinsley, Kentucky. He always took an active interest in the welfare and development of the community, and was president of the board of trustees of the Clarion State Normal School at Clarion. He was a member of the Clarion Presbyterian church, as was also his wife, and he served as trustee for a period of nine years. He was a Republican in politics, but never sought elective office.
