General Notes: Husband - George Plumer Blackburn

---

He attended the public schools of West Newton, Pennsylvania, and then went to Mount Union college, Ohio, where he fitted himself for a teacher. At twenty-one years of age he entered the profession of teaching, which he zealously and successfully followed for ten years. He next engaged (1880) in farming and stock-raising and met with his usual success in that line of business. He was always an active and influential republican and served his party frequently as county committeeman and in county conventions. In the spring of 1888 he was nominated on the Republican ticket for Legislature, receiving a greater number of votes than either of his eleven competitors. In the autumn he together with his three associates on the Republican ticket was elected. He served in the session of 1889 with credit and honor and was the author of several bills and resolutions.
