Clipping from Fleming material (believed to be from the
Titusville
Herald), 18 July 1933:
William Monroe, 93, Pioneer Oil Man, Dies in
Shamburg. William Henry Harrison Monroe, 93, one of the best known oil
men of northwestern Pennsylvania, died at his home at Shamburg at 1:15
o’clock Tuesday afternoon. The aged oil man was born at Magadore, Ohio,
on 25 April 1840. As a young man Mr. Monroe attended school at Hiram,
Ohio, taught by James A. Garfield, who later became President of the
United States. Mr. Monroe’s son, Victor, of Pleasantville, was born on
the day that word came of Garfield’s election to the presidency and he
was named “Victor” in honor of the success of the father’s former
teacher … saw much service in Civil War … married on Christmas day 1871
to Rebecca Thompson, whose father was a justice of the peace in Sandy
Lake … He is survived by three sons and one daughter: Charles C. Monroe
of Corry, Victor G. Monroe and Isaac E. Monroe of Pleasantville and
Miss Clara Monroe at home … [Clara Monroe acted as the non–relative
affidavit for the delayed birth certificates of my parents, Ralph and
Marie Fleming Clifford.]
In family and close friends circles William Monroe was known
as “Daddy Monroe.” He kept diaries of his activities, which were
presented by his family to the Venango County Historical Society after
his death. In The Venango County Historical Society’s publication: Venango
County Panorama. A Salute to Its People. A Pictorial History of Venango
County, Pennsylvania, 1983, excerpts from his diary are cited on
pages 75, 141, 142, and 149. He mentioned his wife, Becky, and two
females, Lorinda and Emma, probable daughters, who would have been
deceased at the time of his death and obituary.
