General Notes: Husband - R. L. Shoup

---

Reared on the old home farm, he obtained his education in the schools of the neighborhood. Beginning in 1889 he and his brother John successfully engaged in the oil business in Clarion County, Pennsylvania, their first well being in Richland township on the Montgomery farm. Later they purchased two wells on the Myers & Brown farm in Venango, and two on the Crawford farm in Clarion County, to which they added from time to time until they had twenty-five wells located in those counties.
