General Notes: Husband - Samuel Clarence Weimer

---

He acquired a good, English education in the West Newton Academy. January 1, 1872, he commenced merchandising in West Newton, Pennsylvania, in company with his brother-in-law, George G. Richie, the firm being "Richie [Richey?] & Weimer," a department store, which became the largest enterprise along those lines in that section of Westmoreland County. In 1876 he purchased his partner's interest in the business, and conducted the same up to his death. He was a member in the organization of the Van Dyke, Weimer & Taylor banking firm, which conducted an extensive business, and which later disposed of its business to the First National Bank. It was largely owing to his efforts that the plant of the United States Radiator Works was located in West Newton, adding greatly to the growth and development of the town. He was chairman of the building committee of the United Presbyterian church, contributed liberally toward the building of the same, served in the capacity of trustee and treasurer, filling the latter office for more than a quarter of a century. He was a Republican in politics, and exercised a potent influence in behalf of the party whose principles he advocated. A short time prior to his death, failing in health, he retired from business and led a quiet life.
