  EDWIN HITE BRUA, of the contracting firm of E. H. & L. A. 
Brua, Jr., of Hollidaysburg, was born here in 1887, a son of 
Lynn A. and Lizzie (Hite) Brua, residents of Hollidaysburg, 
the former born in Blair County and the latter near 
Pittsburgh, Pa. After completing the prescribed course of 
the Hollidaysburg public schools, he entered the contracting 
business in 1912 and has since continued in that field. Many 
miles of state highway in Blair, Bedford, and Cambria 
Counties and nearly all the improved streets in 
Hollidaysburg, have been laid by this company, so that Mr. 
Brua may well be regarded among the leading road contractors 
in this section of the state. In 1910, he married Eva 
Thomas, of Hollidaysburg, and they maintain their home at 
No. 907 Penn Street. He is a member of the Blair County 
Country Club, and Mrs. Brua attends the Lutheran Church.
