Death of George Prothero in Banks Township
George Prothero, longtime Banks township resident and local businessman, died on July 4 following blood poisoning. Born April 19, 1846, in Kenlysburg, he partnered in H Prothero & Brother, aided regional coal and railroad development, and served as a trusted adviser and friend to the community. He was a Republican, survived by his wife Lonie Ake and three children, and was buried at Oakland Cemetery amid a large turnout. Nearby Tarentum officials visited Indiana to inspect the city’s electric light plant, praising its 1200 arc lights and the shine of Indiana and West Indiana streets during the inspection.
