General Notes: Husband - William D. Keck


He was educated in the Greenville, PA, schools and brought up in his father’s store. He attended a commercial college at Mount Union, Ohio, beginning at the age of fifteen years, from which institution he was graduated. After clerking a while for his father, he was employed by Lawton, Burnett & Co., coal operators, and subsequently was employed in the office of Gen. McKibben, then superintendent of the Shenango & Allegheny Railroad, where he remained two years. He was then engaged as agent for a railroad at Mercer, and three years later he severed this connection and entered a partnership with Charles M. Derickson, in the general dry goods business, and built up an extensive trade. He was been a member of the borough council of Mercer, was chief of the fire department, was a member of the Masonic Lodge of Greenville, was a stanch Republican, and one of the enterprising business men of Mercer.
