claim which they occupied, until some ground could be broken and a crop planted. Later a larger and more commodious dwell- ing was erected on Mr. Rich's claim, prob- ably the largest log house in the county, and as soon as completed the family came out from Naperville and here the venerable pioneer made his home until his death No- vember 10, 1871.


On this homestead he reared a family of sons and daughters, who have lived as he lived, honored and respected by all who knew them. His passing carried. froin among us one of the grand old men who fearlessly faced the hardships of the wilder- ness to provide for their families a greater heritage than the flinty hills of New Eng- land could afford, and leave them sufficient of this world's goods to save them from the many privations which he endured.


Mr. Rich was twice married, first to Triphosa Fowler, daughter of Thomas and Betsey Fowler, natives of Vermont. She bore him four children, two of whom sur- vive: Thomas F., of Hampshire, Illinois; and Melissa, widow of Charles Bradford, living in South Dakota. His second mar- riage was to Anise Meacham, to whom six children were born: Anise, deceased, mar- ried N. R. Sanford; Clarissa, wife of Albert Shurtleff, lives in South Dakota; Venelia, who married E. B. Arnold, and also lives in South Dakota; Delia died at the age of fourteen years; Evelyn E., our subject, a twin brother of Eveline, deceased, who married John-Gage, also deceased, of whom more is said elsewhere in this work.


Evelyn E. Rich, the subject of this sketch, was born on the old home farm in Rutland township, April 26, 1839. He was reared on the homestead, attending the dis- trict schools until the age of sixteen, at

which time he began life for himself. Rent- ing a farm for two years, he discontinued* farming, at the end of that time and for an equal period was engaged at carpentering, when he again took up his regular calling, and was employed on the farm until going into the Union army to help suppress the Rebellion, enlisting May 2, 1864, in Com- pany K, One Hundred and Forty-first Reg- iment Illinois Volunteer Infantry, for the one-hundred-day service. He remained nearly twice his enlisted time, being mus- tered out October 10th, of the same year. The regiment to which Mr. Rich was at- tached was assigned to garrison duty and stationed most of the time along the Missis- sippi river.


On his return from the war Mr. Rich re- sumed farming, and after the death of his father, in 1871, purchased the old home- stead. Here he resided until 1888, when he retired from active farming, purchased a fine property in the village of Hampshire, where he takes the world easy, while still in the prime of life.


.


The old homestead, consisting of two hundred and fifty acres of unusually fertile land, is not excelled by any farm in Rutland township. The wide lawn stretching down to the highway, with its magnificent old trees, patriarchs of the original forest, with the woodland across the way, makes a pict- ure of rural beauty pleasing to every eye that beholds it, be he artist or ploughboy. The residence, an unusually large and com- modious building, one of the most substan- tial in the country, was erected by the first proprietor of the estate, while the present owner built the large barn, 112 x44, and many of the minor buildings. on the farm. Dairy farming is the present industry, a fine herd of some sixty head of cattle being


kept there at all times, and frequently many more find shelter there.


Mr. Rich has been by no means idle since leaving the farm, but has been an ex- tensive dealer in live stock of all kinds. He buys and ships milch cows, having at all times a large number on hand for sale. He is an excellent judge of the horse, and no one in Kane county drives a finer pair of high-spirited, handsome roadsters than Mr. Rich.


For a companion in life Mr. Rich chose the daughter of one of the most honored of Kane county's pioneers, Miss Helen Doty, a native of Ohio, where the family was re- siding a few years prior to continuing their migration westward in the early days when Illinois was emerging from the wilderness. Henry Doty, father of Mrs. Rich, was born in Delaware county, New York, October 16, 1813. In early life he removed to Ohio, where he lived a few years, and then came further west, spending one year at Kenosha, Wisconsin. On his advent to Illinois his whole capital was two and one- half dollars-a small beginning from which he made a success in life that is a credit to any man, and one of which his descendants may well be proud.


October 10, 1843, he settled upon the farm now owned by his son, William E., and for fifty years lived upon and cultivated it. His deed, direct from the government, signed by President James K. Polk, is in possession of the family still. Mr. Doty died October 28, 1893, having lived on the farm fifty years and eight days.


The grandfather, Elijah Doty, was a native of New York state. He died in Ohio aged sixty-seven years. His wife, who was Polly Hodges, attained the age of ninety- seven, passing away on the home farm in

Kane county. Her marriage occurred at the age of sixteen, and she became the mother of fourteen children, five of whom survive.


Henry Doty first married Persis F. Bur- rington, a native of New Hampshire, daugh- ter of Chauncey and Roxina (Folkner) Bur- rington, who lived to be ninety-five and ninety respectively. Of Mr. Doty's first marriage four children were born, the mother dying when they were very young. The three surviving are Henry S. Doty, of Sauk county, Minnesota; Mrs. Rich and Mrs. C. T. Campbell, living in Crowley county, Kansas. Of Mr. Doty's second marriage to Maria Page, three children were born, only one of whom survives, William E. Doty, occupying and owning the old home farm.


To Mr. and Mrs. Rich seven children have been born: Addie E., who married Frank Ball and is living on the home farm in Rutland township. To them eight chil- dren have been born. May E., who mar- ried A. D. Brown, of Forks, Wyoming Ter- ritory, is the mother of one child. Milton, died in 1890, aged twenty-three years. Henry E. lives in Wyoming on a large ranch, and with him is Ralph, who employs part of his time teaching. Arthur died at the age of eighteen months; Ethel, the youngest, is a successful teacher of Hamp- shire township.


In politics Mr. Rich is a stanch Repub- lican, having supported that party and its principles since attaining his majority. He is a member of the Grand Army of the Re- public, Hampshire post.


C HARLES H. STRINGER .- The world instinctively pays deference to the man whose success is worthily achieved, over-


coming the obstacles and difficulties in his path until he has reached a high position in the business world. This is a progressive age, and he who does not advance is soon -


left far behind. Mr. Stringer, by the im- provement of opportunities by which all are surrounded, has steadily and honorably worked his way upward until, at the time of his death, he was one of the large landed proprietors of Elgin township, Kane county.


Mr. Stringer was born near Montreal, Lower Canada, October 31, 1834, a son of George Stringer, a native of Yorkshire, England, who was in the Canadian militia during the rebellion, and suffered captivity. The father came to the United States in 1835, which was during the infancy of our subject, who never saw him until nearly grown. The mother died when he was about six or seven years of age. As his school privileges were limited, he was most- ly self-educated, but acquired a good prac- tical knowledge of men and affairs. In his native land he learned the trade of a har- ness and trunk maker, but never followed those occupations after coming to Kane county, Illinois, in 1855, at the age of twenty-one years.


Joining his father in Kane county, where he settled at a very early day, Mr. Stringer remained with him until his marriage with Miss Fannie Bishop, daughter of John Bishop, a native of England. They have become the parents of five children, name- ly: Kate, now the wife of Robert Canada, a farmer of Big Stone, Minnesota; George, deceased; Carl, who married Cora Griffin, of Mitchell county, Iowa, and now lives on his father's farm in that state; Daisy, the wife of John McGary, of Elgin; and Harry, a resident of New Mexico.


After his marriage, Mr. Stringer pur-

chased one hundred and fifty acres at Youngsdale, Elgin township, where he lived for twenty years, and then removed to Mitchell county, Iowa, purchasing three hundred twenty acres there. He continued the cultivation and improvement of that place until 1888, when he leased it to his son and returned to Illinois. He owned his father's old homestead on the -western boundary of the corporation of Elgin, it be- ing a valuable tract of four hundred twenty acres, formerly a stock farm and now a dairy farm supplied with one hundred milch cows. Mr. Stringer was always a lover of good horses, was an excellent judge of the noble stecd, and since 1895 was inter- ested in fine trotting stock. Being pleased with the famous " Loafer," the fastest horse in Chicago-he bought, trained and devel- oped him, and then sold to the present owner. As a business man Mr. Stringer was always prompt, reliable and ener- getic. and as a citizen commanded the re- spect and confidence of all with whom he came in contact. In his political affilia- tions he is an ardent Republican, but has never cared for the honors or emoluments of public office.


H ERBERT Z. BERRY, who for more than a quarter of a century was con- nected with the "Aurora Beacon," has been a resident of the city since the age of two years. He was born in Medina, Ohio, November 7, 1855, and is the son of Thomas E. and Ann (Pierce) Berry, the former a native of Ireland, born in 1821, and who came to America when about nineteen years of age, and the latter a native of England, born in 1829, and who was fifteen years of age when with her parents she emigrated to


the United States. In 1857 Thomas E. Berry, with his family, located in Aurora, which was his home during the remainder of his life. He died July 22, 1896, his wife preceding him to their heavenly home some fifteen years, dying April 5, 1881. Of their eleven children, five are yet living, three of whom make their homes in Aurora, one in Beardstown, Illinois, and one in Chicago. The living are O. Adelbert, Herbert Z., A. Doc, William H. and Bertram. The first four named are married.


Herbert Z. Berry grew to manhood in Aurora and was educated in its public schools. In 1868, when but thirteen years of age, he commenced work in the " Her- ald " printing office in that city, and was connected with that establishment for three years and two months. He then engaged with Dudley Randall, who commenced the publication of the " Illustrated City Life," and was Mr. Randall's principal assistant. The paper survived but ten months, the material of the office being sold to the pro- prietors of the "Aurora Beacon." Mr. Berry was tendered and accepted a situation in the latter establishment, where he re- mained until March, 1897, over a quarter of a century, a faithful workman with pro- gressive ideas. For fifteen years he held the responsible position of superintendent and manager for the "Beacon." While connected with that establishment he won an enviable reputation for being prompt and reliable in all matters pertaining to his business, and the well-deserved popularity of the " Beacon " as a newspaper publish- ing office and as a job printing office in a large measure was. due to him.


Politically Mr. Berry is an ardent Repub- lican, and for the promulgation of the prin- ciples of the party has contributed of his -

time and means. He has held several posi- tions of honor and trust, non-remunerative, and has at all times been a public-spirited and loyal citizen. He has been on the board of public works, and is at present secretary and treasurer of the West Aurora Cemetery Board of Managers.


On his retirement from the "Beacon," March 3, 1897, Mr. Berry spent eleven months in travel, in an attempt to regain his worn-out condition, and so admirably did he succeed that on February 1, 1898, he formed a partnership with A. G. Worm- wood, to do general book and job printing, and February 20, 1898, they left the place of business which Mr. Wormwood had oc-


cupied in a like capacity for several years, and moved to their present elegant new quarters at Nos. 79, 81 and 83 Main street, where they have one of the finest general printing offices in the state of Illinois. For thirty years Mr. Berry has been identified with the printing and publishing interests of Aurora, and is well and favorably known throughout Kane and adjoining counties.


On the 10th of November, 1880, Mr. Berry was united in marriage with Miss Martha W. Hoyt, of Aurora, daughter of . A. J. and Caroline Hoyt, for many years residents of the city. Both Mr. and Mrs. Berry are held in the highest esteem by all who know them.
