General Notes: Husband - Dr. Lewis M. Roth, D.D.S.

---

He went from the public schools of Prospect, Butler County, Pennsylvania, to Thiel College, at Greenville, and became interested in dentistry, studying this science first with Dr. B. F. Lepley, at Prospect. He studied in the dental department of the University of Michigan, later the Western Reserve Medical College at Cleveland and still later the Eclectic Medical College at Cincinnati. He engaged in the practice of dentistry first in Kansas and then re­turned to Prospect, where was a resident thereafter and one of the city's most useful and pub­lic-spirited men. In political sentiment, he was al­ways a Democrat. At various times he has filled almost every borough office and served multiple terms as a member of the School Board. He was also a member of the borough council and was one of the leaders in the movement which resulted in the paving of the streets. His party chose him as their standard bearer, in 1904, for the office of county treasurer, but Republican influence was too strong to be overcome. He and his wife were members of the Emanuel Lutheran Church at Pros­pect, and he served as a deacon for many years.
