General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Bedell Lytle


He attended the Union Township schools and remained on the home farm until he was twenty-one years of age and then entered the employ of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and worked ten years as a fireman for that company. In 1894 he settled at Finleyville, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and became a merchant and did a very prosperous business, being located on the corner of Washington avenue. In 1907 he put in a stock of five and ten-cent articles, thus adding a popular feature to his trade.
In politics, Mr. Lytle was a Democrat. He was identified with several fraternal organizations, the B. P. O. E. No. 455 at Monongahela and Iron City Lodge, B. of L. F. & E., at Pittsburgh.

He was one of Finleyville's representative business men, dealing in hardware, flour, feed and farm implements.
