Obituaries of James M. Hartshorne, 202, appeared in several of the papers Mch. 7th, 1895. The one herewith given is from the New York Sun of that date:
"James Mott Hartshorne, one of the oldest members of the Stock Exchange, and senior partner of the house of James M. Hartshorne & Brother, died yesterday morning at his residence, 300 Madison avenue, where he had lived for twenty-seven years. Mr. Hartshorne was of an old Quaker family. His ancestors came over about the same time as William Penn. They settled on the Highlands of Navesink, N. J., and the old estates there still remain in the family. It was from them that the Government secured the land on which the famous lighthouse stands, and Sandy Hook also was part of the family possessions. Mr. Hart- shorne at the time of his death, was the owner of eighty acres of the Highlands, but the greater area is owned by his father's second cousin, Ben. MI. Hartshorne. For 200 years the family remained in that vicinity until the grandfather of the Hartshorne brothers removed to Freehold, sixteen miles distant, the county seat of Monmouth county, and it was there that James M. Hartshorne was born, Aug. 18, 1837, the year of the great panic. About 1850 he entered Wall street with the house of Genin & Lockwood, one of the first big banking and brokerage firms established in this city. The marked ability of the lad made his ascent very rapid. On Sept. 7, 1858, he was admitted to membership in the Stock Exchange, and about the same time he became a member of the firm of Lockwood & Co., the successors of Genin & Lockwood with whom he had started as a boy only eight years before. Here he remained until May 1. 1863, when he founded the house of James M. Hartshorne & Brother, the partner being his brother, Richard B. Hartshorne. Two years later his other brother, Sidney G. Hartshorne, was admitted. As thus constituted, the firm has remained through all the ups and downs of twenty-seven years in Wall street until now dissolved by the death of the senior partner. Mr. Hartshorne was not only one of the oldest members of the Stock Exchange, but was one of its first governors, being elected for a term of four years when the Governing Committee was first established. For twenty-five years the house has done but little business for others, the time of the partners being occupied with caring for their own large investments. Mr. Hartshorne was a man of positive opinions, and never hesitated to express them. No one ever had occasion to ask where he stood upon any question. He was a Democrat of the old school, but never took active part in politics. He was a member of the Metropolitan Club, the Union League, and a director in the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railroad Company. Mr. Hartshorne had not been in active business for several years. Mrs. Jane A. Hartshorne, the mother of Mr. Hartshorne, Richard B. Hartshorne, S. G. Hartshorne, and Mrs. G. H. Squire, brothers and sister of the deceased; Mrs. James Mott Hartshorne and three children of Mr. Hartshorne, James Mott Hartshorne, Jr., Miss Hartshorne, and Mrs. John G. Moore, are living. The funeral services will be held on Saturday after- noon at 1 o'clock in the Church of the Heavenly Rest."

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES
In England, the name today is not uncommon, though, perhaps, less met with than for- merly. I know of no printed pedigrees, but the following allusions will give an idea of the dif- fusion of the family and its prominence.
Hartshorn is a town in Derbyshire.
In Broseley, Shropshire, Parish Register, there are more than two hundred entries of the name of Hartshorne.
Benthall, an adjoining village, has full as many; "Hartzhorne," a church warden, is written on the gallery of its church.
At Cogerhoe, Northamptonshire, and Whitson, a mile from there, Hartshornes also appear.
The late Queen presented the Rev. Charles Hartshorne to the living of Holdenby, in Northamptonshire, and in the Registers of Holdenby, a payment to a Hartshorne appears. These are evidently the Leicestershire Hartshornes, as the counties adjoin.
At Ravensthorpe, Yorkshire, gravestones, somewhat effaced, are erected to Hartshornes. There was in London, a Hartshorne Lane, now Northumberland St., also Hartshorne Court and Hartshorne Alley, Southwark, in 1708, and the Duke of Northumberland owns land, in Northumberland, called Hartshorne lands.
