ADDENDA.
Watts, and is now a resident of Ohio ; Hoyt, the subject of this sketch, who is residing on the old homestead ; and Amarilla, who married Darius Greenfield, and is a resident of Huron county, Ohio.
Hoyt spent the first fifteen years at home working, as soon as he was able, upon the farm in summer and attending district school in win- ter. From that time until attaining the age of twenty-one years he attended school in different places. He then commenced preparing himself for the medical profession, the practice of which he commenced in 1841 and still continues. He owns and manages the homestead farm', but his time is mostly occupied with professional duties, his practice, which is extensive, calling him into the towns adjoining his own and to the city of Auburn.
March 7th, 1839, Dr. Hunsiker was united in marriage with Lucy Ann, daughter of Peter and Olive (Cleveland) Lick, natives of the town of Sempronius in this county, who was born March 30th, 1820. Her mother died in 1829, and her father, about 1874, at the advanced age of ninety years. Her parents had ten children, of whom Lucy Ann was the seventh.
Dr. and Mrs. Hunsiker have had seven chil- dren, five of whom died in infancy. Two are liv- ing, viz : Sarah T., born July 17th, 1847, and Kate E., born January 30th, 1859.
Dr. Hunsiker was a Democrat until the nomi- nation of Abraham Lincoln, for whom he voted, . in 1860. Since then he has advocated the prin- ciples of and voted with the Republican party. In religious belief he is a Baptist and is a member of that church in his native town. His wife and daughters are also members of the same church. His mother was a Presbyterian, and a consistent member of the same church in Owasco village for many years.
ELISHA COOK.
ELISHA COOK, son of Nathan and Ann H. Cook, was born in the village of Damascus, Ma- honing county, Ohio, January 8th, 1839.
His father was born in York county, Pennsyl- vania, in 1815, and removed at an early age to Hartford county, Maryland, where he lived till he arrived at maturity, when he went west, and after trying several kinds of business, finally, in
the spring of 1840, located on a farm in Harrison county, Ohio. In 1863 he removed to Cayuga County, and in 1876, to Chester county, in his native State, where he still resides with his eldest daughter, Margaret B. Two younger daughters still reside in Cayuga County, one, Mary L., having married James B. Chase, in the town of Scipio, and the other, the youngest, who married John King in 1877, in Ledyard.
Elisha received most of his education at a sem- inary situated in the beautiful village of Mount Pleasant, in Jefferson county, Ohio, and was dis- tinguished for a rapid advancement in his studies in that institution. At the completion of the course he was earnestly solicited to engage as one of the principal teachers, a position he filled for some time to the satisfaction of all concerned.
Meanwhile, having been convinced by a visit to the central part of the State of New York of the excellence and desirableness of Cayuga Coun- ty as a farming country, and more especially as a home, he left the hills of his native State and located on the farm he now occupies in the town of Venice, in Cayuga County. This farm was then incumbered with a heavy mortgage and was so run down from neglect, and become over-run with mustard, thistles and daisies, that many pro- nounced it useless to try to raise wheat. Much
of the land was wet, and it was without buildings or fences of any appraised value. The mortgage has been paid, the land fenced and drained, and the buildings represented on another page of this work erected. Now, only an old apple tree or an elm in the pasture remains as an ancient land- mark. It is thus seen that Mr. Cook's life has been a stirring, industrious one.
In September, 1861, Mr. Cook was united in marriage with Abbie H. Cook, a lady of the same name, but of no family relation, who still shares his home, and by discreet management of household cares helps to lighten life's burdens, and with her kindly greeting makes relatives, friends and strangers feel welcome. Two bright children, a son and a daughter, complete the domestic circle. The son, Charles H., a sober ład, was born in February, 1864; and the daugh- ter, Mattie A., is a mischief-loving girl, whom nothing pleases more than to play some trick on her more sedate brother.
In 1877 Mr Cook was elected to the office of Supervisor of Venice, and has been annually rëelected to that office with increased majorities.
