General Notes: Husband - Arthur D. Mornes

---

He was reared in the southern part of Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and there received a preliminary educational training in the public schools. He subsequently attended Chaffee's Institute at Oswego, New York, and upon graduating from that institution became private secretary and clerk for a business house in Warren, Ohio, soon thereafter being engaged to assist the official court reporter in Warren and Portage Counties, Ohio. In the year 1886 he was appointed by Judges Hazen, McMichael and Aiken official court reporter for Lawrence and Butler Counties. At the same time he served eight years in a similar capacity for Beaver County, being the first official reporter for that county, assisted in Mercer County reporting for about six years, and in all of this time reported for forty-three common pleas judges in Pennsylvania. During his residence in New Castle he was identified with various business and financial ventures and was reckoned among the substantial men of the place. Later he was president of the People's Mutual Building and Loan Association and a director in the Lawrence Savings and Trust Company.
Politically, he took an earnest interest in local and State affairs, but was not a politician. He was a member of the First Christian Church and one of its official board, was deeply interested in the work of the New Castle Y. M. C. A., and served as secretary of the Board of Directors. Fraternally he was a member of the Masonic order.
