General Notes: Husband - Reuben H. Kemerer

---

He was reared at home and received his educational training in the common schools of his native place. About 1879 he removed to Franklin township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where he conducted a farm for about four years as a renter. He then removed to Braddock, where he was employed for about a year in the steel works. Not finding this occupation congenial, however, Mr. Kermerer located in Irwin, where he was for some years engaged in digging coal, also following this occupation for some years in South Greensburg, Pennsylvania. Deciding to engage in business for himself, Mr. Kemerer entered into the mercantile business in Greensburg in 1895. His political sympathies lay with the Democratic party, and he served as councilman and school director in Greensburg, and for five years was a member of the board of health. Religiously he affiliated with the Reformed church.
