General Notes: Husband - Barton A. Myers


He was reared at Rouseville, Pennsylvania, and attended school there until sixteen years old, but meantime he began to earn his own living, when but nine years old having the agency in his home town for the Oil City Derrick and Oil City Blizzard. Later he worked around on oil leases, and at refineries and barrel works, doing whatever offered the best financial returns, until, during the summer of 1903, while engaged on an oil lease for J. E. Robinson at McClintockville, Venango County, he was offered a position in Mr. Robinson's office in the service of the National Transit Company. He accepted, continuing to work under Mr. Robinson until the latter's retire­ment and remaining with the National Transit Company until September, 1917, when he availed himself of an opportunity to enter the employ of the Morck Oil Company, as superintendent of their oil and gas wells, in Venango and Warren counties. He also operated in oil on his own account with good success. [HVC 1919, 1020]
