(VI) James Finney, son of Thomas Ghorm- ley and Esther (Kerr) McElroy, was born in Fayette county, Ohio, on his father's farm, November 25, 1852. He received his pre- liminary education in the public schools of his county, prepared for college at South Salem and Bloomingburg, Ohio, and gradu- ated from Dartmouth College in 1876. He was principal of the Indiana Institution for the Blind at Indianapolis four years, and superin- tendent for seven years of the Institution for the Blind at Lansing, Michigan. At Dart- mouth, along with the classical course, he had pursued special studies in mathematics and chemistry. These were continued at Indianapolis and Lansing with original investi- gations and experiments. During these years he brought out a number of useful inven- tions. In 1887 he organized a company for manufacturing some of his inventions, The McElroy Car Heating Company. This was later combined with the Sewell Car Heating Company, forming the Consolidated Car Heat- ing Company, of Albany, New York. They manufacture and sell to railroads heating ap- paratus of all kinds, in which steam, hot water, fire and electricity are used. These are based upon patents, mostly taken out by Mr. McElroy. The patents issued to Mr. McElroy up to the present time in the United States, Canada and Europe number over three hundred. He is acting president and consult- ing engineer of the company.
In all matters pertaining to mechanical
heating, whether it be by electricity, steam, hot water or oil, he is rated an expert and is sought in consultation on a great deal of the most important work. Not only for consul- tation, but for instruction, are his professional services in demand before conventions and societies of skilled engineers, and before rail- road men's associations. He is as well known in the west as in the east, his papers and ad- dresses appearing in the printed proceedings of both the New England and Western Rail- road clubs. So high does he stand in his pro- fession that in 1895 the American Street Rail- road Association, in session at Montreal, Can- ada, listened and approved the address he read before them by invitation, on electrical heat- ing. Part of this paper had previously been read before the New York Street Railway Association, and was printed in full in the proceedings of both bodies. He was invited to and delivered a lecture on "Electric Light- ing of Steam Lines," before the students and faculty of the Boston Institute of Technology. The system of heating street cars, invented and patented by Mr. McElroy, is in universal use all over the world. His patents, collected and bound, fill three large volumes. His specialty is the law of physics and electric heat and light. Two sides of his large library, from floor to ceiling, are filled with volumes treating only of electricty. He holds member- ship in many leading mechanical and profes- sional societies, among them: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. He was one of the organizers of the Society of Engineers of Eastern New York (now numbering three hundred and seventy-five members) ; was president of the society, and on the board of directors, since its organiza- tion.
Eminent as he is in his profession and in the world of business, he has made his influ- ence felt in educational affairs of his state. His advocacy of the cause of industrial edu- cation has been persistent and forceful. His paper read before the department of superin- tendence of the National Educational Associa- tion, at Washington, D. C., 1908, entitled : "The Most Urgent Need of Our Educational System," made a deep impression, coming as it did from the practical man of business and not from a theorist. This paper was followed by the organization of a New York branch of the National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education, Mr. McElroy being chosen president. He had spoken much on this subject before school boards, urging the establishment of industrial schools. He is chairman of the committee of the Albany
568
HUDSON AND MOHAWK VALLEYS
chamber of commerce that has jurisdiction over that subject, and a result is now seen in the Albany Industrial School, established in the spring of 1908. He presided at the state meeting in Rochester, held in 1909, that dealt with this all-important subject of industrial education.
Since coming to Albany in 1887 he has identified himself with other business interests of the city. He is a director of the Albany Exchange Savings Bank, and has served two terms as president of the chamber of com- merce and has been on the board of directors since organization. He is a director of the Albany Mutual Insurance Company, and for a time of the Hudson Valley Electric Railroad Company and the United Traction Company. He is a director of the Albany Institute and Historical and Art Society, and chairman of the building committee who had in charge the erection of the present fine home of the so- ciety on Washington avenue, Albany, also is a trustee of the Albany Orphan Asylum, and devotes a great deal of time and interest to that institution. He is president of the Wood- lawn Improvement Association, that has done so much for the betterment of that section of Albany. He was one of the organizers of the University Club of Albany, was vice- president and for two terms president and since organization has served as trustee. Dur- ing his term as president the club purchased the present fine quarters. He is a member of the Fort Orange and the Aurania clubs of Albany. He has been president of the Burns Club, and thereby declared his devotion to and pride in the land of his ancestry. He is a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Albany, which he has served for fifteen years as trustee. In political affairs he acts with the Republican party. He has been active locally, presiding at city conventions, served as school commissioner, and added his full share to the cause of good and useful schools.
He married, July 9, 1879, Susie, daughter of John Hale, of Newbury, Vermont. Chil- dren: I. Jolin Hale, born May 1, 1880, grad- uated from Albany high school, 1899; Dart- mouth College, 1903, specializing in mathe- matics. After graduation he entered the em- ploy of the state in the state engineer's de- partment, Albany. In 1905 he passed the re- quired civil service examination and was ap- pointed assistant engineer and assigned to duty on the Panama canal construction. He returned home after a year's absence on duty, married, and returned to the Isthmus, where he remained until October. 1906, when he re- signed to accept an appointment in the state engineer's department at Albany, where he
still continues (1909). He married, June 6, 1906, Helen Hutchinson, daughter of Profes- sor and Helen Hutchinson (Lewis) Boss, of the Dudley Observatory. Children: i.
