ROBERT T. ROSELLE-For many years one of the foremost figures in Luzerne County building opera- tions, ever instrumental in advancing the welfare and prosperity of the different towns and cities of the Wyom- ing Valley, Robert T. Roselle has come to be regarded highly by all who know him. It is comparatively a re- cent development that he has undertaken in the real estate field, although since his earliest business ventures he has been closely identified with building and con- tracting in this region of Pennsylvania. Mr. Roselle was born in West Wyoming, Pennsylvania, August 24, 1887, a son of Wilbur and Olive A. (Covert) Roselle. His father, born in Mount Zion, Pennsylvania, in 1850, died November, 1926, was a general contractor all his life ;. while the mother, who was born in Trucksville, Pennsyl- vania, is one of the widely known and highly respected residents of Luzerne County.
Robert T. Roselle attended the public schools in Wyo- ming, and subsequently studied at Valparaiso University, from which he was graduated in the class of 1913 with the degree of Civil Engineer. When he returned from the university, which was situated in Valparaiso, Indiana, he went into the general contracting business with his father, Wilbur Roselle, in Wyoming, the firm having become known at that juncture as Wilbur Roselle and Son, successors to Roselle Brothers, who first became engaged in the contracting business about 1875. Mr. Roselle continued with his father until the elder man's death, which occurred in 1926; and after that time he remained in it himself until 1927, when he gave up build- ing contracting and continued in the real estate business, devoting all his time to this work and hecoming associat- ed with the firm of Lessley A. Steel, Inc., of Kingston, Pennsylvania. Mr. Roselle and his father, throughout their many years of contracting work, were instrumental in the erection of many homes, churches, schoolhouses and stores in all parts of the Wyoming Valley ; and they came to be recognized as real leaders in the field of work which they had chosen for their careers. Robert T. Roselle played a prominent part in a number of differ- ent building programs and land development enterprises, and came to be justly regarded as a most important citi- zen in his community.
Never satisfied with working only in his own business interests, Mr. Roselle has at all times been active in the affairs of this city, community and State. His political views are those of the Republican party, whose policies and candidates he has supported consistently and vigor- ously. In 1925 he was appointed burgess of Forty Fort, while in the fall of that year, after he had been serving in the office for a time, he was elected his town's chief executive for the regular four-year term, expiring in 1930. In addition to his other activities, Mr. Roselle is
a member of the Free and Accepted Masons, in which his affiliation is with Wyoming Lodge, No. 468; Sheki- nah Chapter of Royal Arch Masons; the Dieu le Veut Commandery, No. 45, of Knights Templar; and Irem Temple of the Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mys- tic Shrine. He also was a member of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics, in which he was identi- fied with Troy Council No. 76; and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, being associated in that organiza- tion with the Monument Lodge in Wyoming. It need not he pointed out that all of these groups play most important parts in the fraternal life of the Wyoming Valley, and that Mr. Roselle's membership in them is ample testimony to the character of the man and to the type of enterprises in which he is interested. He also is a director of the Home Builders' Mutual Building and Loan Association and a member of the Progressive Club of Forty Fort. His religious affiliation is with the Meth- odist Episcopal Church, in which he has been chosen to serve on the official board.
In 1915 Mr. Roselle married Clara Coughlin, of Lu- zerne, a daughter of D. O. Coughlin, a Wilkes-Barre attorney-at-law, and of Emma ( Hughes) Coughlin. By this union there have been four children: I. Donald O., born in June, 1916. 2. Roberta Jean, born March 20, 1920. 3. Priscilla Lee, born August 7, 1924. 4. Curtis Coughlin, born July 26, 1928.

He received his early education in the public schools of Luzerne, and graduated from the Luzerne High School in 1904. After graduation he secured a position as clerk in the employ of Payne and Perrin, proprietors of a general store in Luzerne, with whom he remained for three years. At the end of that time he made a change and identified himself with Haddock and Fowler, proprietors of another store in Luzerne, and this connection he maintained for two years. He had been thriftily saving all this time with the hope of continuing his education, and he now entered the business department of Wyoming Seminary, from which he was graduated. After the completion of his course in the seminary he came to Wilkes-Barre and entered the employ of the hardware firm of Phelps, Lewis and Bennett, with whom he remained as clerk and bookkeeper for six months. His next position was with the Luzerne County Trust Company of Wilkes- Barre, which he served as bookkeeper until 1908, when it was made a national bank under the name of the Luzerne County National Bank. In 1912 Mr. Ruff was made cashier of this bank, and he continued to hold this position until July 14, 1923, at which time the Luzerne County National Bank was merged into the Miners' Bank of Wilkes-Barre. Mr. Ruff was chosen cashier of the new organization, and has continued to fill that official position. Politicially Mr. Ruff gives his support to the principles and the candidates of the Republican party, and is very prominent in the Masonic order.

He is also identified with the Rotary Club, Westmore- land Club, and Irem Temple Country Club. Mr. Ruff is well known as a man of excellent business ability and of sound judgment, and he freely contributes his busi- ness ability as well as his means to the advancement of the general welfare of Wilkes-Barre. He is president of the Wilkes-Barre Young Men's Christian Association, and in addition serves as vice-president of the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce, a director of the

Community Welfare Confederation, also treasurer of the Wilkes-Barre Salvation Army. He is treasurer of the American Auto Accessories Stores, as has already been stated, and as organizer of the local chapter of the American Institute of Banking he has rendered valu- able service. For many years he has served as superin- tendent of the Bennett Presbyterian Sunday School, of Luzerne, and he gives most generous support to projects planned for the advancement of the general welfare both in Wilkes-Barre and in Luzerne. As a representa- tive citizen, a successful business man, and an active and efficient supporter of all that is best in the life of the city Mr. Ruff has few peers, and he is held in very high esteem both in Wilkes-Barre and in Luzerne. Mr. Ruff has never married.

D .- Physician and surgeon of prominence through a broad area in Lu- zerne County, Daniel Guy Robinhold, resident and prac- titioner of Forty Fort, was born in Port Clinton, Schuyl- kill County, Pennsylvania, May 13, 1874, son of George H. and Emma (Teter) Robinhold. His father, native of Port Clinton, was born in 1845. He was with the Reading Railroad Company, with which company he had been employed through a number of years. Emma (Teter ) Robinhold was born in Berks County, Pennsyl- vania, in 1851, and died in 1004.
Dr. Robinhold attended the public schools of Port Chester, graduated from high school with marks of dis- tinction in 1889, and went to work in the employ of the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Con pany, of Philadelphia, with which organization he continued until 1896, as a member of the road's accounting staff. Mean- while his inclination bent him toward increased inter- est in medicine as a career, and in due course he had taken steps to enter Jefferson Medical College. From this institution, in 1900, at the age of twenty-six years, he took the degree of Doctor of Medicine, and in that same year opened offices for general practice in Forty Fort. Here he has continued in continuous and lucrative professional exercise through the years that have fol- lowed, during nearly three decades. Engaged in general practice with a large clientele, he is on the attending staff of Nesbitt West Side Hospital, and a member of the County, State and American medical associations. During the World War he was with the Medical Corps, United States Army, holding the rank of Major, sta- tioned at Camp Greenleaf, Fort Oglethorpe, in Georgia. Discharged, he resumed the course of the career outlined. His discharge was tendered him January 19, 1919.
A Democrat, of independent preference, Dr. Robinhold has supported the party's principles with consistency, and has supported those candidates who have met his best cliscernments. For twenty-eight years ( 1928) he has been president of the Forty Fort Board of Health. He is a director and was an organizer of the Forty Fort State Bank.

AARON LEO PARKS-The business activity of the Wilkes-Barre commercial area is well known through- out Pennsylvania as counted among the most progressive of amalgamated enterprises. Forty Fort, prosperous community within this area, is a valued contributing unit to the remarkable commercial whole; and here are met on every hand leaders in their respective lines of operation. Aaron Ico Parks has been identified through many years with the Forty Fort business activities. He is today a foremost figure in the community, not alone as regards commerce and finance, but also pertaining to civil and social movements designed for the town's devel- opment. Mr. Parks was born at Parsons, Pennsylvania, March 2, 1888, son of Walter Ide Parks, born at Lehman, Pennsylvania, engaged through a considerable period as farmer, carpenter and man of affairs, died March 9, 1928,
and Georgianna (Sutton) Parks, born at Neshanic, New Jersey, 1863, died, 1921.
Following the securing of a comprehensive clementary and secondary instruction in the public schools of Court- dale, Pennsylvania, Aaron Leo Parks at the age of four- teen years went to work in a canning factory, at Luzerne, and continued in employment there two years, leaving it at the age of sixteen to work in a lunch room at Kings- ton Corners. This work occupied him twelve months, at the expiration of which period he found himself with sufficient capital and credit wherewith to open a restau- rant of his own, on Main Street, in Luzerne. For four years he acted as restauranteur in Luzerne, sold out his holding, whose value had increased materially under able management, and purchased a restaurant in Kingston Corners. This restaurant he operated eleven years, with a success exceeding greatly that enjoyed with the initial undertaking. It was while conducting the second res- taurant, in Kingston Corners, that he entered, modestly, the haking business, making pies, for distribution at wholesale. This aspect of his enterprise flourished so roundly, through the excellence of the pastry products and Mr. Parks' able management, that in 1918 he dis- posed of the restaurant in order to give to the baking business extra time, funds and direction. He established, then, a bakery, at No. 723 Market Street, Kingston, in the building known as the Bock Building, where he was in the baking business twelve months. Expansion war- ranted larger quarters-indeed, larger quarters were a necessity, as trade could not readily be turned away ; and in 1919 Mr. Parks came to Forty Fort. Here he renovated the building originally built for the show- rooms of the Matheson Silent Six automobile, at No. 905 Wyoming Avenue; and at this address he has con- tinued with mounting fortune to the present time. He is now engaged in a general baking trade at wholesale, and specializes in the baking of breads and buns, under such widely advertised names as "Freshbread" and "Double- Mothers," each of which represents a product of proven deliciousness having a broad market. Thirty-six per- sons, on the average, arc employed in the baking plant the year entire. Eleven automobiles make deliveries, and Mr. Parks is known well through a large section of Pennsylvania as a foremost factor in the baking indus- try.
Aside from his activity as business man, Mr. Parks interests himself constantly in movements conceived for the general welfare of Forty Fort and the trading area which composes Wilkes-Barre. A Republican, he has given his support to the party's principles and candidates consistently. Fraternally he is affiliated with Lodge No. 395, Free and Accepted Masons ; Shekinah Chapter, Royal Arch Masons ; Dieu le Veut Commandery, No. 45, Knights Templar; Irem Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine; the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and Shalimar Lodge of the Patriotic Order Sons of America of Kingston, Pennsylvania. He belongs to the Kiwanis Club of Wilkes-Barre, and to the Methodist Episcopal Church, of Kingston. During the period of the World War he was of valued help in the various campaigns of patriotic appeal.
Mr. Parks married, in February, 1916, Zora Calhoun, of Plymouth, Pennsylvania, daughter of James Mitchell and Harriet (Hallock) Calhoun, being a direct descen- dant of the honored vice-president of the United States, John C. Calhoun, through the paternal line. Of this union was born a daughter, Harriet Georgianna, Janu- ary 14, 1917.
GEORGE MEGINES PACE-One of the leading citizens of Kingston, George Megines Pace belongs to a family whose residence in the Wyoming Valley dates back to early Indian times. William Pace, distinguished ancestor, served with Perry at the battle of Lake Erie, and received a medal from the government in token of merit and honor. From him was descended James L. Pace, father of George Megines Pace.
James L. Pace was born at Larksville, Luzerne Coun- ty, and for thirty-five years was a manufacturer of lrooms, in Kingston, having succeeded to this manu- facturing enterprise following the death of William Love- land, pioneer manufacturer of the valley. James L. Pace inarried Susan Megines, native of Wilkes-Barre.
George Megines Pace, son of James L. and Susan ( Megines) Pace, was born in Kingston, June 29, 1861, here attended the public schools, and from Wyoming Seminary was graduated in 1881. As a youth he had helped his father in the broom manufacturing business, and after completion of studies at the seminary, 1881, founded an enterprise as tea dealer at wholesale and

retail. This proved so profitable that he continued it, under the name style of G. M. Pace Tea Company, for twenty-two years, 1881-1903, since which time he has given the whole of his business and financial direction to the care of his properties, and has dealt some in realty hoklings. He owns several properities in the business section of Kingston.
A Democrat, Mr. Pace is loyal to the principles of the party and is of influence in its workings. He is a mem- ber of Lodge No. 395, Free and Accepted Masons ; Shekinah Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; Dieu le Veut Commandery, No. 45, Knights Templar ; Irem Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, and is a communicant of the Presbyterian Church, whose activities he supports liberally.
Mr. Pace married, in 1898, Harriett C. Davenport, of Plymouth, a daughter of Ira and Mary ( Koons) Daven- port. They have a son, George Megines, Jr., who was born July 12, 1899. Two other children died: Harriett, in October of 1924, at the age of twenty-four; and Maude Carmen, who died at the age of but six months. There are two grandchildren: George Megines, 3d, born in August of 1915; Carmina Davenport, February 5, 1917.
Mrs. George Megines Pace comes from an old and honored family. Her father, Ira Davenport, was born in Plymouth, Pennsylvania, and was a farmer, postmaster of Plymouth, and coal operator there. He served as a director of the First National Bank of Plymouth, as school director, and at the time of his death, in 1900, was serving as poor director of the town. Ira Daven- port's great grandfather, John Davenport, was beheaded at the time of the French Revolution, 1789, for his religious beliefs, which he refused to betray. Mrs. Pace's mother, Mary ( Koons) Davenport, was born near Plymouth, Pennsylvania, and died in 1880.
ISAAC M. THOMAS-A business man of the old school, Isaac M. Thomas was one of the outstanding citizens of Wilkes-Barre, where, in different periods of his life, he had served as a director of many important companies-organizations that have contributed in a marked way to the growth and development of this region of Pennsylvania and to the industrial life of the State. He was one of the original directors of the old People's Bank, and for many years a director of the Vulcan Iron Works and other manufacturing houses. For half a century, he was one of the leading business men of Luzerne County and the Wyoming Valley, and, although retired from many of his activities, he was still keenly interested in the public affairs of his com- inunity, State and Nation.
He was born in McVeytown, Juniata County, Penn- sylvania, February 1, 1844, a son of Jesse and Ellen Elizabeth ( Miner) Thomas, and a descendant of promi- nent old families of Pennsylvania. This line traces its descent back to Peter Thomas, of Chester County, Penn- sylvania, who, at John Simcock's house in Ridley, on February 15, 1686, married Sarah Stedman, and subse- quently settled in Willistown, where Peter died April 5. 1722. Their son, Peter, married, in 1711, Elizabeth Goodwin, and they had children, among whom was Isaac Thomas, born April 21, 1721, who married, March 16, 1744, Mary Townsend, daughter of John Townsend, of West- town. Isaac and Mary (Townsend) Thomas had these children : Phebe, Enos, Nathan, Hannah, Isaac, Mary, Jonathan, Townsend, Thomas, Martha and Mordecai Thomas of whom further.
Mordecai Thomas, born July 21, 1767, married, October 20, 1796, Lydia Hoopes, daughter of Ezra and Ann Hoopes, of Westtown, and had children: Isaac, Ezra, Emmor, George, Jesse, of whom further ; Hoopes, Mary Ann, Lydia, Eliza, and Mordecai H.
Jesse Thomas, the youngest of Mordecai Thomas' sons to grow to maturity, was born October 27, 1804, and, on June 25, 1838, married Ellen Elizabeth Miner, daughter of Charles and Letitia (Wright) Miner, thus doubly uniting the houses of Thomas and Miner; for Jesse's brother,' Isaac Thomas, M. D., had, four years earlier, on March 3, 1824, married Ann Charlton Miner, sister of Ellen Elizabeth, and Charles Miner's eldest daughter.
Jesse Thomas, the father of Isaac M. Thomas, was by trade a tanner, but found this occupation unpleasant to his tastes and soon abandoned it to go with a Mr. Baker to what was called "the west," then a dense forest, but now the flourishing city of Altoona, Blair County. Pennsylvania. After he had been for several years with Mr. Baker as manager of his iron furnace, he became engaged in the iron business for himself at the Hope
furnace, near McVeytown, Juniata County, Pennsylvania. Later, he established the Elizabeth furnace at McVey- town. He was successful in his business until the re- moval of the duty on manufactured iron by Congress caused the depression of 1846 and 1847 which swept away his small fortune. With his usual courage, he met the situation, settled his affairs as best he could, and left his family in the care of his brother, Dr. Isaac Thomas, of West Chester. Then he went West with the "Forty-niners" to the gold fields of California. In 1851, he came back to the East, where, in the spring of the following year, he removed with his family to Plains Township, Luzerne County, from which, in 1868, he removed to Wilkes-Barre, where he died February 14, 1876, at the age of seventy-one years. The Hon. Charles Miner, father of Jesse Thomas' wife, was an important citizen of the Wyoming Valley, of which region he wrote the first history, and as a result of this he came to be known as the Wyoming historian. Jesse and Ellen Elizabeth ( Miner ) Thomas had seven chil- dren : 1. Ann Charlton, born April 15, 1839, died Janu- ary 27, 1843. 2. Mary Letitia, born April 5, 1841, mar- ried, October 8, 1874, William H. Sturdevant, of Wilkes- Barre, civil engineer, member of the Wyoming Historical- Geological Society and the Pennsylvania Society of the Sons of the Revolution, and they had children, Thomas Kirkbride, and Jessie Thomas. 3. Isaac M., of further mention. 4. Sally Brinton, born June 29, 1845. 5. Phebe Rothrock, born February 17, 1847, died June 26, 1890. 6. Ellen Miner, born January 25, 1852, married, April 25, 1877, William Marshall Fitts Round, an author and student of prison reform and social questions. 7. Eliza- beth, born April 12, 1857, married, April 12, 1878, Charles F. Richardson, professor of English literature at Dart- mouth College.
