General Notes: Husband - Smith M. McCreight


After attending the local schools he went to the State Normal School at Indiana, Pennsylvania, and to Grove City College, graduating from the latter institution in 1893. After teaching for two terms he entered the office of Carmalt and Strong, attorneys, with whom he read law, gaining admission to the Jefferson county bar in 1898, after which he began practice at Reynoldsville. Mr. McCreight's professional experience brought him into touch with the workings of a number of local enterprises, and he had interests in several, chief among these being the People's National Bank, of Reynoldsville, of which he was a director, and the Reynoldsville Electric Light & Power Company, of which he was secretary.
As a public official he gave service to the town, as postmaster (for five years, appointed by President Taft), borough solicitor (for several years) and member of the school board. Politically he was aligned with the Republicans. He affiliated with the local organizations of the B. P. O. Elks and Knights of Pythias.
