BIOGRAPHICAL


WILLIAM B. ANSLEY, M. D., of Salts- college course, after which he taught several burg, has made a record in his profession which places him second to none in Indiana county. Besides giving unflagging attention to the demands of a large private practice, he has been president of the county medical society, vice president of the State society, a contributor to medical literature and a cit- izen whose activities have always been di- rected toward serving general interests. He has been in practice for over forty-five years, since 1877 at Saltsburg.


Dr. Ansley is a native of Indiana county, born Aug. 2, 1847, in South Mahoning town -. ship, and is of pioneer and Revolutionary stock, his great-grandfather, John Ansley, having served in the Revolution as a soldier in the American army, while his brother com- manded a company on the British side. John Ansley, who was a farmer by occupation, moved from New Jersey to Westmoreland county, Pa. His son, Daniel Ansley, the Doctor's grandfather, was born in 1798 in that county, and followed farming there until 1837, when he came to Indiana county. He died in 1858, aged sixty years.


James Ansley, son of Daniel, was born in 1825, and became extensively interested in farming and stock raising in Rayne town- ship, this county. He was prominent in lo- cal affairs, serving as a deacon in the Bap- tist Church, and in important public capaci- ties, having been auditor of Indiana county, and justice of the peace of Rayne township. In politics he was a Republican. He mar- ried Sarah Spencer, who was born near Johns- town, in Cambria county, and she, too, was a member of the Baptist Church. Mr. Ans- ley died Feb. 23, 1895, Mrs. Ansley April 13, 1909.


terms in the common schools. Having de- termined upon medicine as his life vocation, he began study in the office of Dr. C. Mc- Ewen, of Plumville, and after reading six months with him entered the office of Dr. R. S. Sutton, of Pittsburg. The rest of his pro- fessional preparation was received in the Jef- ferson Medical College, Philadelphia, where he attended three courses of lectures and was graduated in 1867. Immediately afterward he opened an office at Apollo, Armstrong Co., Pa., where he practiced for ten years with good success, thence in 1877 moving to Salts- burg. Dr. Ansley's skill and conscientious devotion to those who depend upon him for professional services has attracted and held an extensive patronage, nevertheless his high- minded zeal for the good of his profession has led him to be active and useful also, in association with his fellow physicians, in pro- moting its welfare as a whole, raising its standards, and working faithfully along lines favorable to its progress. His valuable serv- ices have received public recognition in va- rious ways. He was elected president of the Indiana County Medical Society ; was a mem- ber of the committee on medical legislation of the Pennsylvania State Medical Society ; has been one of the vice presidents of that so- ciety, and was a United States pension ex- aminer, serving as secretary of the board while holding the latter position. He is a member of the American Medical Association, and of the Pittsburg Obstetrical Society, and has found some time for writing, having pre- pared articles for various medical journals. He is a past master in the Masonic fraternity, and a past grand in the I. O. O. F. Like his parents he is a Baptist in religion, being a leading member of the Saltsburg Church, of which he is a deacon, and he has also been active in the Sunday school, at present teach-

In politics Dr. Ansley is a progressive Re- publican. He has served twenty-six years as member of the board of school directors, of which body he first became a member in 1882, and during the greater part of this time has been president of the board.


HARRY CALVIN WATT PATTERSON, president and treasurer of the Patterson Mill- ing Company, of Saltsburg, Indiana county, present burgess of that borough, is one of the leading citizens of that section, where in busi- ness and official connections he has been able to advance local interests in various ways. He was born at Murrysville, Westmoreland Co., Pa., Oct. 29, 1878, son of the late Martin V. Patterson and grandson of Martin Patterson.


Martin Patterson, the grandfather, was a native of Ireland, born in County Down, and married in that country Ann Kidd, of the same county. On coming to America they set- tled near Murrysville, in Westmoreland county, Pa., where Mr. Patterson became ex- tensively interested in farming, owning a tract of three hundred acres. He died in 1865, at the age of sixty-nine years, his wife passing away in 1874, at the age of seventy-seven. In politics he was a Democrat, and both were members of the Presbyterian Church. They had the following children: James, David, Samuel, Joseph, Jane, Martin V., Sadie, Re- becca and Bell.


Martin V. Patterson, son of Martin, was born Dec. 12, 1839, at Murrysville, in Frank- lin township, Westmoreland county, and re- ceived a common school education. When a young man he entered the employ of the Pitts- burg Street Railway Company, and in 1861 went to Oil City, Pa., being interested in the oil business for a number of years following, first as a well driller, but soon becoming a contractor, operating in different fields in western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and north- ern West Virginia. In 1875 he became en- gaged in the sawmill business in Indiana and Westmoreland counties, Pa., carrying it on until 1881, when he established a waterpower flour mill on the Conemaugh river at Salts- burg. In 1885 he formed a partnership with John Hershey and they purchased the Salts- burg Flouring Mill, which they conducted under the firm name of the Saltsburg Flour- ing Mill Company until 1900. The water- power of this mill was destroyed by the Johns- town flood in 1889. In 1890 Mr. Patterson re- modeled his mill, putting in steam and the rol-
