the courts of justice in 1800. Many distinguished jurists
have been members of Beaver County’s bench, among them
Daniel Agnew, who served as Chief Justice of the Pennsylvania
Supreme Court for 15 years, James E. Rowley, former President
Judge of the Superior Court and Ralph Scalera, appointed by
President Richard M. Nixon to the federal bench. |
