General Notes: Husband - Alvin Frederick Stoner


He was born in the house on Penn avenue, Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, in which he later resided with his sister, Lillian M. He was educated in the public schools of the township and upon the completion of his education entered the business of his father, in due course of time, in 1884, assuming the responsibility of a partner. Upon the death of his father he assumed entire control of the business, and under his management it flourished until January, 1902, when he retired from active work in the mercantile field and devoted his entire time and attention to the management of the family estate, which had grown to large proportions. He erected a number of private residences and business blocks in the borough, among them being a large building at No. 738 Penn avenue, which was rented as apartments and for business purposes. He was a member of the First Presbyterian church of Wilkinsburg, in which he was an elder beginning in 1887. He was a Republican in politics.
