General Notes: Husband - William Seward Carnahan


He was born in White township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania, one and a half miles from the town of Indiana, and there grew to manhood, receiving his education in the public schools. In his early manhood he was engaged in the sawmill business in association with his two brothers, and they also operated threshing machines and hay binders. On Jan. 1, 1892, he and his brother Thomas bought their father's interest in the general store at Shelocta, in the conduct of which they had previously been associated with him under the firm name of Thomas M. Carnahan & Sons, and a few years later, in 1895, they opened another store, in Parkwood.
He served as assessor of his borough and president of the school board. Politically he was a Republican.
