Mr. McPhern was married to Miss Mary E. Stone, a native of Ohio and resides at No. 59 Park avenue east. He is a member of the Congregational church and also belongs to the Grand Army Post thus maintaining pleasant relations with his old army comrades. In matters of citizenship he has


1169


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


always been loyal and progressive and he is well known in this city where for forty-two years he has made his home, during much of this period being an active business man.


S. N. FORD.


Among Mansfield enterprising business men S. N. Ford is prominent and he deserves much credit for what he has accomplished for he started out in life with little to aid him in the way of educational training or financial assistance. He soon learned to know that hard work and persistency of purpose constitute a safe foundation on which to build success and as the years have gone by he has labored with diligence and determination to gain the present enviable and honorable position which he now occupies. He was born on a farm in Washington township, one of the six children of John and Harriet (Barnes) Ford. His parents were of Scotch-English descent but both were natives of Ohio. S. N. Ford acquired his early education in the country schools, the little temple of learning in which he began his studies being a log schoolhouse. The advantages which he received were somewhat better as the years went on and after he left the army he benefited by a course of in- struction in the Lexington Seminary at Lexington, Ohio. He was but a youth when in response to the country's call his patriotic spirit was aroused and he joined the army, enlisting as a member of Company C, One Hundred and Sixty-third Ohio Volunteer Infantry, under Captain Cockley, of Lex- ington, Ohio. He did active duty with the Eastern Army under Grant in the operations around Petersburg and Richmond and although he was fre- quently under fire he displayed a valorous spirit and undaunted loyalty equal to that of many a veteran of twice his years. When the war was over and the country no longer needed his aid Mr. Ford at once returned to the north and, as stated, continued his education in the Lexington Seminary.


Starting upon an independent business career in the fall of 1869, Mr. Ford purchased a lumber business in Mansfield, Ohio, and began the manu- facture of lumber, sash, doors and blinds. This business has enjoyed a wonderful growth, Mr. Ford remaining always as its chief executive officer and active in its control. He is now engaged in the manufacture of almost everything known to the trade including lumber, sash, doors, blinds and in- terior furnishings and even builds street cars. The trade has now reached mammoth proportions and the house with its extensive interests stands as a monument to the enterprise, keen discernment and business ability of Mr. Ford. He has been extensively engaged in lumbering both in Kentucky and Michigan, operating a band lumber mill in the Cumberland mountains of Kentucky for fifteen or sixteen years. A man of undaunted enterprise and notable resources he has also been a factor in the conduct of other busi- ness interests, being now president of the Mansfield Street Railway, Light and Power Company, of the Humphreys Manufacturing Company, the


1170


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


Phoenix Electric Company, the Mansfield Telephone Company and the Merchants and Manufacturers' Insurance Company. He forms his plans readily and is determined in their execution and the methods which he has instituted in his business career have been such as have won for him the respect and admiration of his colleagues and associates.


Mr. Ford was married in 1868 to Miss Elizabeth Cook, of Lexington, Ohio, and they now have a son and daughter: Hoyt, who is managing the interests of the Phoenix Electric Company; and Ada, a practicing physician of Mansfield. Mr. Ford owns the block at the northeast corner of the public square and has there erected a beautiful residence. He is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, is also identified with the Masonic fraternity and in that order has attained the Knight Templar degree. He also belongs to the Knights of Pythias fraternity and is prominent in the Odd Fellows society, having held every office in the local lodge. His business career is one marked by steady advancement and is another illustration of the fact that it is under the pressure of necessity and the stimulus of opposition that the best and strongest in men is brought out and developed. From a humble beginning he has steadily worked his way upward, utilizing the means at hand to the best advantage, and his life is an illustration of the fact that success and an honored name may be won simultaneously for, in his life, bus- iness enterprise, unflagging activity and unassailable integrity have been well balanced forces.


MICHAEL D. HARTER.


Michael D. Harter was born at Canton, Ohio, April 6, 1846. His life was one of great activity. Before he was of age he established the banking house of George D. Harter & Brother, of Canton. Before the age of twenty- three he became treasurer and manager of the Aultman-Taylor Company of Mansfield, removing to this place in 1869. He there established the Savings Bank and was a director in many large affairs of interest to the town. In Canton he was a partner in the banking business of Isaac Harter & Sons, and he established and was to the time of his death president of the Isaac Harter Milling Company of Fostoria. With all his private affairs occupying his time he never turned a deaf ear to a cry for help, giving not only freely of his means, but advice, influence and work. The tariff question and the one of honest money was to him a burning question and his life in congress was devoted to this. In his own party few at that time stood with him but none doubted his courage and honesty. Much in political life was a trial and at the end of two terms he declined another nomination and came home in 1895, worn out, and died February 22, 1896.


His success in life was largely due to his unselfishness and belief that in all men good could be found. Treachery sickened and saddened but never made him bitter. He had great personal magnetism and in his public speak- ing had the art of making the dryest subjects clear and interesting. At the


1171


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


end of twelve years his family are still learning of his great benefactions. These were known only to himself and the one benefited, and one is safe in saying that the whole will never be known.


HENRY A. ENZOR.


Henry A. Enzor was born June 12, 1849, in Butler township, Richland country, Ohio. His parents were David H. and Mary (Gribble) Enzor, who came from Pennsylvania to Ohio, and settled in Butler township in 1833. While en route from Pennsylvania to Ohio the parents of the subject of this sketch witnessed the historical phenomenon of the "falling stars," which occurred on the night of November 13, 1833, when lights resembling stars were seen falling for three or four hours. The appearance was like a shower of stars.


Butler township had many attractions for the pioneers, the surface was generally level and its soil had every appearance of fertility, which caused a fair proportion of the newcomers to settle in that township, and subsequent events showed that their choice was wisely made. The pioneers of Butler, as well as those of other townships, were people of heroic virtues. The situation forbade much attention to other matters than to work and clearing up the land and in founding homes. The active life of the men who made civilization possible had but little time for educational pursuits. They made history, but they did not write it. The flourishing condition of Butler township and Rich- land county is the result of the labors of the pioneers-the men who toiled for our betterment, not knowing whether succeeding generations would even be informed of the names of those who cut down the forests and cleared the land. But historical works rescue from the past, preserve and record on the pages of history, not only the names of the pioneers, but descriptions of the life they led, the good results, adventures and exploits of the men of the pioneer times, and these records will be more fully appreciated by coming generations than it is by the people of today.


David Enzor being a farmer, his son, the subject of this sketch, was reared upon a farm and in starting out for himself was well qualified to follow that line of pursuit. His education was obtained in the common schools of the district in which he was reared.


David Enzor and wife were industrious in their day and reared their chil- dren to industrious habits. The parents were prominent in their life and by their death the community was deprived of two good citizens.


Henry A. Enzor was married in 1872 to Miss Sarah Keck, who died in October, 1880. In 1893, Mr. Enzor married Miss Ida M. Bricker, of Mans- field, and to these unions five children were born, of which four are living. Shortly after Mr. Enzor's second marriege he bought a farm in Springfield township, four miles west of Mansfield on the Millsborough road. His farm is finely situated and his residence and grounds are the most attractive of their kind in Springfield township. His older children are married and living


1172


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


in Cleveland, and are doing well. One child, an attractive little girl, is yet left in the home of the parents. A son died in infancy.


Mr. and Mrs. Enzor are members of the Christian church of Mansfield. His parents were also of the same faith, and were baptized by immersion by Elder John Reed, a pioneer preacher of the Christian church, who often held services at the Enzor home.


In politics, Mr. Enzor is a democrat and believes in the doctrine of Thomas Jefferson that "That government is best that governs least."


Among all classes and in every condition of life the struggle for a liveli- hood is ever going on and there are often numerous trials and hardships to overcome before the top of the ladder of financial success is reached, and the success of Mr. Enzor, financially and otherwise, is a compliment to his exertions and ability. The fact that he has gained the respect and confidence of the community is accounted for by his right principles and his interest in the wel- fare of those around him. He has a strictly honorable business record and is noted for his fair dealings with all with whom he has business relations. He is truly a self-made man and energy and perseverance are no better illustrated than in his career. He began life with the ability with which nature had endowed him and his prosperous condition at the present time is an appropriate reward for his industry of the past. It is said that circumstances in life will make or mar to a certain extent the life of any man, but that a determined spirit will bend even the force of circumstances to its will. The past life of Mr. Enzor verifies this statement, and furnishes abundant proof of the saying that which is better than silver or gold, a good name gains added luster, and that the sterling qualities of character are strengthened in the combat of life.


Mr. Enzor is a courteous gentleman, kind, affable and obliging, and is popular with his neighbors.


HON. HENRY C. KOOKEN.


Henry Clute Kooken was born September 3, 1836, in Ashland county, Ohio. He is the eldest of his parents' family of thirteen children, of whom only three still survive, namely: William H., Jr., of Alabama; Louise, the wife of William Fulton, of Lucas, Ohio; and the subject of this sketch.


Henry C. Kooken was married, September 25, 1862, to Miss Mary E. Pearce, a daughter of Louis K. and Elizabeth C. (Driskell) Pearce. Mr. and Mrs. Kooken are the parents of six children, as follows: Landon M., Esther Cedelia, Luella Victoria, Elizabeth Elnora, Mary Pearce and Louis K. Landon M. was born July 25, 1863, and on August 14, 1888, married Miss Lamira A. Purdey, by whom he has two children, namely: Landon M., Jr., born June 16, 1889, and Ruth Elnora, born January 2, 1902. Esther C. was born July 29, 1864, and married Dr. J. D. Purdey, October 18, 1887. Dr. and Mrs. Purdey have two children : Pledge Kooken, who was born September 30, 1890, and died October 6, 1891; and Marietjee DaLee, born March 24, 1892. Elizabeth Elnora, born August 22, 1867, married Albert Coul, August


1173


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


14, 1882, and has had three children: Irene Ryford, born December 29, 1883 ; Ella Eva, who was born August 29, 1885, and died March 19, 1892; and Albert Ralph, born May 28, 1888. Louis K. Kooken was born August 25, 1878. Luella Victoria and Mary Pearce died young.


William Hills Kooken, the father of our subject, was born October 7, 1810, and died April 1, 1888. Susan Devenbaugh, called by some of the early ancestors of the family Derfenbacher, was the mother of our subject. She was born in 1808 and was married to Mr. Kooken in 1836, and, as before stated became the mother of thirteen children. Her parents were Daniel Devenbaugh and Ann Maria Kooken. The original name came from Lord Devenbeaux, of France, whose descendants fled from their native country to Germany at the time of the Huguenot persecution and came thence to America with some of their co-religionists. Daniel Devenbaugh and Maria Kooken were married in Bedford county, Pennsylvania, and were the parents of ten chil- dren, but the family records were destroyed by fire about the time of the be- ginning of the war of the Revolution. Their ten children are now all dead. The name of the grandfather of the subject of this sketch was Casper Deven- baugh, a son of the Casper Devenbaugh, who came from Germany to America in about 1740. The latter landed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and took the oath of allegiance to the British crown before setting foot on American soil, as was learned from the record of the port of entry, now in the office of the secretary of state in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.


The maternal grandmother of our subject, Ann Maria Devenbaugh, was a daughter of John Kooken, who was born in Philadelphia county, Pennsyl- vania. He was a son of Johannes Kooken, who came to America about 1720. On January 29, 1729, by vote of the general assembly of Pennsylvania, he was naturalized under English rule. Being then a citizen of Pennsylvania county, he was granted land and certain privileges under the Northern Liberties and William Penn's rights to the state of Pennsylvania. Marie Baker, whom Johannes Kooken married, was a daughter of William Baker and Marie (Penn) Baker. Her mother was a daughter of John Penn, son of William Penn, by his second marriage, to Hannah Callohill. Inasmuch as Johannes Kooken had married the granddaughter of William Penn, he had to be naturalized and be acknowledged by the general assembly of Pennsylvania, thus coming into possession of his land and other property and holding them under the ruling authorities of England and Pennsylvania and to the rights ceded to William Penn, the Free Traders Society and the Northern Liberties. He and his wife lie buried in the old Friends' burying grounds in the city of Philadelphia.


William Hills Kooken and his wife were first cousins. The former was a son of John Kooken, who was a son of John Kooken, and a grandson of Johannes Kooken and his wife, Mary or Marie Penn. William Penn was of the royal house of Tudor, his grandfather being John Tudor. William Penn was buried at Jordan's, near Beckersfield, Buckinghamshire, England, the graveyard being three miles from the London road, on the lands of a Lady Young. William Hills Kooken's mother was Margaret Hills, a daughter of William Hills and his wife, Susannah Engle. They were married in


1174


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


Winchester, Virginia, prior to the war of the Revolution. They were both natives of England, the former having been born in the Parish of Kent. The Hills ancestors were named Jennings, Howe, Innes, Engle and Pennington. John Kooken, the grandfather of the subject of this sketch, married a Miss Baker, who was a descendant of William Baker, who married a granddaughter of William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania.


This information having been subscribed to on July 9, 1900, by Henry Clute Kooken as handed down to him by his ancestors.


Mary E. Kooken, the wife of Henry C. Kooken, is a daughter of Louis Kenney Pearce and wife, whose maiden name was Elizabeth C. Driskell. The former was a son of Stephen Pearce and his wife, Mary Kinney, she being a daughter of Louis Kinney and wife, Mary Williams. Louis Kinney was a son of Louis Kinney and his wife, Esther Dubois, a daughter of Joost or George Dubois, whose mother was a daughter of Louis XIV, of France. The Dubois family was noted among the Huguenots of France for their inde- pendence and intelligence, and fled from France to Holland at the time of the persecution of those of their religious faith.


Resolved Waldron came to America from Amsterdam, Holland, about 1645. He was a son of Baron Johannes Waldron, of Waldron Hall, of Amsterdam, and was one of the original patentees of the Harlem land pat- ents under Governors Nichols and Thomas Dongan, under dates of 1666, 1667 and 1668, as shown by the official records in the office of the secretary of state at Albany, New York. Resolved Waldron married Miss Tannekee Von Nagle in New York City in 1654, and among their children were Ruth, born April 12, 1657, and baptized May 10 following. She married Johannes De La Mater, August 11, 1678, in New York city. Mr. and Mrs. De La Mater had seven children, the next to the youngest Marietjee, or Marie, be- ing born in New Harlem, New York, July 9, 1696, and baptized July 26, 1696. Ruth De La Mater died in New Harlem, now New York city, in 1707.


Marietjee De La Mater was married to John Pearce, of Flat Bush, Long Island, June 13, 1716, and died near Aquanock, New Jersey, October 24, 1734. John Pearce died in New Harlem, June 3, 1744, and was buried in New Harlem cemetery. James Pearce, the, eldest son of John Pearce, was born August 8, 1717, and was married to Sarah Van Horn, of Bergen county, New Jersey, January 19, 1742. Stephen Pearce, a son of James Pearce, was born May 19, 1764, and was married to Mary Kinney, August 29, 1787, and died in Columbiana county, Ohio, in 1810. She died in Richland county in 1843 and was buried in the Perrysville (Ohio) cemetery.


James Pearce was married in Elizabeth, Allegheny county, Pennsyl- vania, in 1807. His wife, Sarah, died in Columbiana county, Ohio, and was buried in what was then known as the Bull Creek cemetery. They had ten children. The sixth child, Louis Kinney Pearce, was born June 19, 1797, and was married to Elizabeth Cedelia Driskell, September 19, 1833, the mar- riage ceremony being performed by Solomon Gladden, Esq., a justice of the peace, in and for the county of Richland, Ohio, as is shown by the rec- ords of said county. They had five children, namely: James McVey Pearce,, born December 19, 1835, married Catharine Miller in 1898. Mary E. Pearce,


1175


HISTORY OF RICHLAND COUNTY


born October 9, 1839, married Henry C. Kooken in September, 1862. Sarah Sophia, born September 6, 1843, married William S. Banks; John Reed Pearce, born January 11, 1846, was married to Ethalinda J. Johnston. Louis Kinney, Jr., born May 11, 1848, was married to Lydia Jane Leppo.


Louis Kinney Pearce, Sr. died December 30, 1850, and his wife, Eliz- abeth Cedelia Pearce, died March 15, 1890. Both lie buried in the Ford cemetery in Washington township, Richland county, Ohio.


Mr. Kooken's father was a resident of Ashland county, Ohio, until his son Henry was past thirteen years of age. The family then removed to Richland county and settled four miles east of Mansfield, and here our sub- ject's home was continued until after he had attained his majority. The father then removed to the Village of Lucas, where he engaged in the shoe business for several years. Later he removed to the southern part of the county, and there died. Our subject spent most of his boyhood years on a farm. He received a common-school education, and his first business ven- ture was in the boot and shoe business, first at Lucas and later at Newville. In 1880 he removed to Mansfield, where he was engaged in the work of genea- logical and biographical writing and in the insurance business. Mr. Kooken, wife and family are members of the Christian church.


Since the above was written, the Kookens have removed from Mans- field to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where they are pleasantly and prosper- ously situated. The son, Louis P. Kooken, since their removal to Phila- delphia, has been admitted to the bar and has a lucrative practice for a young attorney. He is soon to be admitted to the bar of the supreme court of the United States, with good prospects of being appointed to the faculty of the Washington Law College. He has a wife and one child.


Since removing to Philadelphia, Mr. Kooken has obtained other know- ledge of his family history. Governor Charles Kooken, of Pennsylvania, was Henry C. Kooken's great-grandfather, and the Rev. John Kooken, first rector of the Church of the Ascension at Norristown, Pennsylvania, was also a kinsman of the subject of this sketch. Mr. Kooken's eldest daughter, Mrs. Esther C. Purdey, who had a reputation as an artist ere she left Mansfield, has further advanced in that line, and her drawings are quite popular with the residents of the Quaker City.
