Businesswoman. Born into a family with deep roots in Southington, she came to prominence in town as the owner of Oxley Drug, a downtown landmark. She took over the business when her husband, Alfred, died unexpectedly in 1930. In 1952 she sold the business, which beared the Oxley name until it closed in 1993. Her home at the corner of North Main and Mill streets was well-known for the gardens she cultivated and the parties she hosted as a staunch supporter of the Republican party.
