General Notes: Husband - Richard E. Clover


He was a well-known resident of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, and one of the pro­prietors of the “Hotel Pantall,” a leading hos­telry of that town.
He was just a child when his father died, he was taken to Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and was reared by an aunt, receiving a fair education. He became an expert bookkeeper, and previous to engaging in the hotel business had done much clerical work as occasion offered. He also spent several years in the oil region in western Pennsylvania, during the excitement over the discovery of petroleum. He was prominent socially as a member of the Punxsu­tawney Club. He was interested in the political questions of the day, though not as an office seeker, and he was an adherent to the Democratic party.
