General Notes: Husband - John P. McWilliams


After the completion of his general studies he turned to the learning of a trade, and for this purpose he went to Pittsburgh, PA, and apprenticed himself to William Trimble, of Trimble & McIntyre, a firm of builders. He here served out his full term of apprenticeship and continued in their employ for a period of about ten years. After severing his connection with this concern, Mr. McWilliams became engaged in the building and contracting business, the firm name being McWilliams & Beatty. Afterward a two years' employment by the Gill Car Works was followed by a position as foreman with the Pittsburgh Street Car Company, which he held for four years. After this he turned once more to his ambition of an independent business, and engaged in contracting. His residence in Bellevue, Pennsylvania, where his business was situated, continued for twenty-one years.
