Notes
a. Note:   H8
Note:   Burt graduated from Edinboro Normal School in 1896 and taught in Venango Township for two years.
  He then decided he would like to become a doctor and work with the mentally ill. He joined the staff at the State Hospital in Warren; later transferring to the State Hospital in Trenton NJ. While in Trenton he met and married Mary Emma Behm and their first child, Esther, was born.
  Soon after this, he decided to come back to NW PA and Burt secured a position as Station Agent for the Northwestern Electric Transit Company which operated a trolley line between Erie and Cambridge Springs. He worked first in Edinboro, where their second daughter, Elizabeth, was born, and later in Cambridge Springs. It was while working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week that Burt decided to buy the small 18 acre farm south of Cambridge Springs. Because of his long hours at the trolley company, it was necessary for Burt and the two oldest boys John and Bill, to do most of the farm chores by lantern light.
  Burton Joseph was born after they moved to the farm; he drowned while swimming in French Creek at the age of 18.
  Later Burt became a cashier, director, and vice president at the First National Bank in Cambridge Springs. He had more time to raise fine quality farm produce for sale and home consumption. Active in civic and church activities, Burt was a member and past master of Covenant Masonic Lodge and a member of the Coudersport Consistory.
  Burt and Mary were very active in the Methodist Church, holding many different positions during their lifetime. They celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 1956 at their Spring Street home (Cambridge Springs) which they bought after selling the farm to son John. (J. A. Boylan)
