General Notes: Husband - William Smith Elgin

---

After attaining his majority, he located in Rural Valley, PA. He served a three years' apprenticeship to the carpenters' trade, in Leechburg, Armstrong County, PA, and Fairfield, Iowa. He became a permanent resident of Rural Valley in 1884, and was successfully engaged as a carpenter and contractor throughout that period. His reliable work has gained him high standing among his fellow citizens, both as mechanic and business man. He and his family were members of the M. E. Church of Rural Valley, and he was one of the trustees of that church. He was quite active in its work, and also took considerable part in local public affairs, serving as tax collector (twelve years), auditor (twelve years) and in various minor positions. Politically he was a Repub­lican.
