General Notes: Husband - Homer N. Logue


He was reared in the usual manner of farmer boys of his day, and remained with his parents until nineteen years of age, after which he spent two years on the old homestead at Grass Flats, Clarion County, PA, where he continued to work for his father for two years. A year later he removed to Butler County, and after spending two years there, he went to Bradford, McKean County, where the following five years were passed. During this time he was in the employ of a pipe line company, serving as foreman of a crew for the last four years.

After his marriage he rented a farm at Canoe Riffle, Clarion County, for two years and a half, and then became interested in the oil business, purchasing his first well on the Rowe farm near Edenburg. As his financial resources increased, he bought others from time to time until he owned an interest in eleven wells, but eventually sold his property, retaining only the first two wells purchased-those on the Rowe place. Going to McKee's Rock, PA, in 1890, he worked for the Bear Creek Refining Company for five years, and then retired from that business owing to ill-health. In January, 1895, he pur­chased a farm in Piney township, Clarion County, for $4,000, mainly for the pur­pose of surrounding his children with the whole­some influences incident to farm life. He had an elegant home in Sligo, in fact, one of the best in Clarion County, and there he planned to rear his children. Fraternally, he belonged to the Masonic Lodge, No. 505, F. & A. M., of Port Allegheny, and, religiously, he and his wife were consistent members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Being a strong temperance man, he was unwavering in his support of the Prohibition party, and he did all in his power to advance their interests.
