The Stisser Family-Dr. John H. C. Stisser was born in Brunswick, Germany, in 1745, and came to America in 1775, and some years afterward performed efficient service in the revolutionary war as a surgeon In one of the skirmishes of the war, he was, with two other comrades, taken prisoner. His two friends were killed, and only his medical ability, which he had occasion to prove, saved him from shar- ing their fate. For six weeks he was a prisoner, watched night and day and sub- jected to many indignities; but, fortunately, finding his guard very drunk one night, he stole away, and once again reached the camp of his friends. He came with his family to Madison county in 1820, and was one of the earliest settlers of this region. Of his children the last, Solomon Stisser, died in Orleans county in 1888, at a very old age. Dr. John H. C. died at the house of his son, John, on Cole Hill, at the age of ninety-six. His wife died in 1828 in her eightieth year. It is related that Dr. John Stisser had come to this country to fight with the Germans, but being captured at the battle of Saratoga, he took the oath of allegiance. After his marriage, and previous to his removal to Madison county, he settled near what is now the village of Amsterdam where at one time he owned about three hundred acres of land. His youngest son, named John Stisser, was born near Amsterdam March 21, 1801, and married in 1825, at Lenox Furnace, Delilah Buyea of Lenox. He rented a little log house on Cole Hill and engaged in the business of burning coal for the furnace com- pany ; his earlier years were full of toil and privation, but by thrift and industry he ac- quired a competency and one time was the owner of 800 acres of land in this vicinity. He became a man of prominence, and held various positions of public trust, serving as road commissioner three terms of three years each, and as assessor nine years; he was also the founder of what is still called the Stisser school district. He removed to the farm where his son John Stisser now resides in 1852, and built the house there where he resided until his death which occurred April 7, 1881, at the age of eighty. His wife died July 20, 1885, in the eighty-second year of her age. Of their children, only three are now living: Maria, wife of John Davis, who is a farmer in the town of Oneida; John, who resides on the old homestead; and Augustus, who resides on his farm near Wampsville. Augustus, the oldest living son, has been a resident farmer in Wampsville, over a quarter of a century. He was born on Cole Hill in 1826, and reared on a farm, early learning to help in the farm work, and receiving a good edu- cation in the district school. He remained with his parents until his marriage, Jan- uary 12, 1853, to Miss Asenath Clement of Stockbridge, this county, a daughter of Lewis and Dorothea (Vedder) Clement. Lewis Clement was a farmer in Stock- bridge where he died in the seventy-fifth year of his age, and his wife six years later, in 1884, at the age of eighty-one.

stantial, intelligent farming community in which he lived. He was conscientious to the last degree, a good business man, and possessed of unerring good judgment and executive ability. For twenty-four years he served his town in some office within the gift of the people. For eight successive years he was supervisor and during all that time he enjoyed to the fullest extent the confidence of his townsmen and the esteem of his fellow members of the board. It was a matter of sincere regret when on ac- count of impaired health he declined to serve the town longer. There was no resi- dent of the town of Cazenovia who had more friends, or who was more highly and universally esteemed than Mr. Sherman. He lived his entire life in the community and no one can point to a single act not compatible with the life of a Christian man. In 1860 Mr. Sherman married Miss Maria Goodrich, who survives him.

He died in November, 1878, in the seventy-ninth year of his age. John E. Stone was educated in the public schools, and at the old Oneida Academy. When twenty years old he engaged in the business of supplying the Central railroad with wood for engines, and ties, an enterprise in which he continued successfully seven years, supplying partially the stations at Chit- tenango, Canaseraga and Oneida. Following this period he was for two years en- gaged in the manufacture of lumber in the northern part of Madison county where he had acquired considerable woodland. Mr. Stone had a large amount of real estate in the county, and his deals in real estate have been extensive. He purchased the block on Madison street where his store is now located in 1865, and the following year began the dry goods business which he has ever since continued. By the ad- mission of his son, Willard E. Stone, in 1889, the firm name took its present form of John E. Stone & Co. Mr. Stone is one of the oldest business men in the village, and a valued citizen. He has avoided all public office, having given all his time and at- tention to the development of his business. In 1860 he married Henrietta F. Har- den, and three children have been born to them: Willard E., Charles M., and Mrs. W. G. Hill.
