General Notes: Husband - James Franklin Calvert

---

He spent his youth on the farm in Clinton Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, which his father and grandfather before him occupied. It lay three miles east of Clintonville, and seven miles west of the borough of Emlenton. He attended the public schools and helped with the work at home, which provided training for the time when he was to take charge of the place on his own responsibility, as he did shortly after his marriage. In addition to carrying on general farming he developed the oil to some extent, had two producing wells, and his activities entitled him to a place among the successful agriculturists of his locality. He was public-spirited in township affairs though not an office seeker, and did his part in the promotion of various interests important to the welfare of the community. In political principle he was a Democrat, but he voted according to his estimate of men and measures. Mr. Calvert helped to incorporate the Calvert-Riddle cemetery company and served as a director after the organization. He had no regular church associations, but was in accord with religious work and enterprises. [CAB, 954]

They had no children of their own, but reared a niece of Mrs. Calvert, Frances A. Moseley, who lived with them since she was three and a half years old.
