General Notes: Husband - John Clinton Surrena
He spent most of his life on the old Surrena farm, and was educated in the schools of the neighborhood. About 1913 he removed to the borough of Clintonville, where he erected a neat and conveniently arranged home for his family. Though he continued the cultivation of the farm to some extent his principal attention is devoted to the development of its oil resources, he having had charge of all the exploitation and production work there, though some of it has been prosecuted under lease. Mr. Surrena is engaged in drilling and general contract work in partnership with Martin Hoffman, operating two strings of drilling tools, and he has sunk most of the wells on his own land, but he is interested in only one company producing there, which owns eleven of the thirty-four wells now pumping. He also has an interest in one company owning a lease in Butler County, with six wells producing; a lease in Clinton Township where seven wells are in operation, and another with six wells. He purchased 213 acres of land in Sheffield Township, Warren Co., Pa., but sold this tract after a few years' ownership. With all his numerous concerns of a business nature Mr. Surrena has found time to attend to his duties as a good citizen. Like his ancestors he is a Democrat in political faith. [CAB, 841]
