ROBERT F. LORD, of Kearny, Hudson County, is the son of John and
Jane Lord, and a grandson of Robert Lord and James and Sarah Lang.
His ancestors on both sides came to this country from the North of Ireland. Air. Lord was born in Newark, N. J., on the 22d of January, 1853,
but was taken by his parents when young to Kearny, Hudson County,
where he received his education. For twenty-five years he has been actively
associated with the Stewart Hartshorn Company, the well known manufacturers of shade rollers, of Harrison. During that period he has filled
nearly every position in the establishment, being at the present time the
efficient and successful manager of the company's New York office at 486
Broadway.
Mr. Lord has displayed marked executive ability and business capacity, and during his long connection with the great Hartshorn Company he has discharged his duties with credit, honor, and satisfaction. In politics he is an ardent Republican. He has been for many years one of the most active men in the affairs of his municipality, which he served for a term of two years as a member of the Board of Aldermen, and upon the incorporation of Kearny as a town he was elected a member of the first Common Council, a position he now holds. He has also been active in the Kearny Volunteer Fire Department and is a member of the Masons and the Heptasophs. Mr. Lord married Miss Martha Coulson, of Jersey City, N. J., by whom he has had four children: Bella, John, Robert J., and William J.
