Notes:

McNaughton, Pliny B., was born in Buffalo, N. Y., August 17, 1855, attended the public schools and finished his education at Notre Dame College, South Bend, Ind. His first business experience was with W. I. Williams, a contractor and builder, in whose employ he remained six years. In 1880 he engaged in business on his own account as a general contractor, doing mostly city work, and in 1885 formed a partnership with Frank L. Bapst, who, under the firm name of McNaughton & Bapst, were largely engaged in stone paving and the sand business. Charles E. Williams was admitted to membership, which composes the now well known firm of Williams, McNaughton & Bapst; besides being a member of the firm, he is general manager of the Buffalo Dredging Company, which company has a contract with the State of New York for deepening the Erie Canal on the section extending from Buffalo to Pendleton. He is also vice.president of the German Rock Asphalt and Cement Company (Limited), one of the leading asphalt paving companies in the city of Buffalo; he is also a member of the B. P. O. E.
