      BERT STREALY,
  
  [p. 848] who conducts a plumbing business at No. 233 Sixth Street,
  Ellwood City, has resided in this place for the past fifteen years. He
  was born in Mahoning County, Ohio, September 2, 1881, and is a son of
  Jacob S. and Sarah (Mains) Strealy.
  
  The father of Mr. Strealy was born in 1851. For some years he has been
  manager of a hardware store at Ambridge, Pa., where he is a well-known
  citizen. His family consisted of three daughters and two sons, namely:
  Blanche, who is the wife of Cornelius Cleary, of Zelienople; Grace, who
  is the wife of J. C. Wardman, of Ellwood City; Elsie, residing at
  Youngstown, Ohio, and Bert and Alonzo, both of Ellwood City. The mother
  of the above mentioned family is deceased.
  
  Bert Strealy learned his trade after he left school, with the Blatt
  Hardware Company, of Ellwood City, where he has been in business for
  himself for the past two years. Mr. Strealy is a practical plumber and
  attends to his contracts himself, taking pride in doing satisfactory
  work and pleasing his customers. As a natural consequence he is kept
  constantly busy.
  
  On January 14, 1908, Mr. Strealy was married to Miss Clara Ellen Cole,
  who is a daughter of William Cole, of Wayne Township. Mr. Strealy's
  residence is at Hazel Dell. In politics he is affiliated with the
  Republican party. He is a member of the order of the Knights of the
  Golden Eagles and also of the Sons of Veterans, being entitled to
  membership in the latter organization on account of the services of his
  grandfather, John Seamans Strealy, who served in the Union army during
  the Civil War and later died at Youngstown, Ohio.
