James Maxwell, grandfather of William Mille, was for many years a butcher in Forfarshire, being located in Arbroath, where he


201


HISTORY OF ERIE COUNTY


died, in 1863, at the age of sixty-five years, his birth having occurred in 1798. His wife, whose maiden name was Anna Webster, was born in 1802, and died in 1887, aged eighty-five years. Of the eleven chil- dren born of their union, James Maxwell, of Jamestown, Pennsylvania, is the only survivor, he being now, in 1909, eighty-six years of age.


Andrew Maxwell was born in Arbroath, Forfarshire, Scotland, in 1819. As a boy he drove a butcher's cart for his father, but afterward learned the trade of a blacksmith and horse shoer, serving an appren- ticeship of four years, and subsequently worked as a blacksmith on a Clyde river ship. Like so many of his sagacious and enterprising coun- trymen, he then turned to America as the field of promise for a suc- cessful career, and brought his family to the United States. Locating in Ohio, he worked at his trade in Cincinnati for a year, after which he spent two years in Norwalk, being employed as a railway contrac- tor. He subsequently spent a short time in Allegheny, from there going to Toronto, Canada, as an employe of the Grand Trunk Railway Company. He was afterwards foreman in the railway shops of the Philadelphia and Erie Railway Company, and later, in connection with the Great Western Railway Company, opening, during the oil boom, the first shop in Pithole. He subsequently became foreman of the railway shops at Meadville, Pennsylvania, where his death occurred, very suddenly, May 18, 1873, apparently when he was sitting on a bridge, his body being found in the water, with a cigar between his fingers. He was a superior workman, being known in railway circles as a most skillful blacksmith.


Andrew Maxwell married Marjory Mille, who was born in Ar- broath, Scotland, in 1816, a daughter of Thomas Mille, a farmer and hotel keeper. Four children were born to them, as follows: Mary Ann, deceased; James, of Meadville, a machinist : Marjory, wife of Andrew Stratton, of Meadville; and William Mille, of this sketch.


Born May 4, 1852, in Arbroath, Forfarshire, William M. Maxwell was a small child when he left bonnie Scotland with his parents. He attended school pretty regularly until thirteen years old, although as a lad of nine years he worked as a helper in a safe factory in Canada. At the age of eleven years he began teaming for the railway company, in the meantime feeding and caring for his own team. After moving with the family to Meadville, Pennsylvania, he served an apprentice- ship of four years at the blacksmith's trade, working with his father until seventeen years old. The ensuing three years Mr. Maxwell was blacksmith for the Bear Creek Railroad Company, at Pioneer, but since 1879 has been connected with the Bessemer Railroad Company, for the past twenty years having been foreman in the blacksmithing department of the shops, now located at Albion. Mr. Maxwell, how- ever, resides in Greenville, where he owns considerable property of value.


Mr. Maxwell married Mary Ellen Connor, who was born January 9. 1855, near Meadville, a daughter of Nathan and Katie E. (Alead) Connor, and granddaughter of Charles Mead, the representative of one of the old and honored families of Pennsylvania. Eight children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell, namely: Jennie, wife of D. Lontz- enheimer, a machinist in Greenville. has two children. Marion and Winifred: Annabelle, wife of A. I. Miles, of Chicago, and Bessebelle. living at home, are twins; A. J. Webster, deceased; Della, a telegraph

operator in Meadville; William Henry, assisting his father in the shops at Albion, married A. Kyle, who is deceased; Marjory Ellen; and Donald Malcolm, deceased. Politically Mr. Maxwell is identified with the Democratic party, and has served on the school board. Fra- ternally he belongs to the F. & A. M. (blue lodge) of Jamestown; to the chapter and commandery, Greenville; and to the Knights of the Maccabees. Religiously he is a member of the United Presbyterian church.


JOSEPH EUGENE MCWILLIAMS, who was a business man of promi- nence, and a soldier in the war between the north and south, was born in Piermont, New York, February 6, 1845, a son of John A. and Susan (Wilkin) McWilliams, who were also born in the Empire state. He was but a lad of seventeen when he volunteered for the Civil war on July 26, 1862, at Elmira, becoming a member of Company A, 107th New York Volunteer Infantry, and he was mustered out of service in Wash- ington, D. C., but in the meantime had participated in some of the hardest fought battles of the entire conflict and he was ever a true and loval sol- dier. In the early 'zos he removed to Buffalo and entered the service of the Delaware and Hudson Coal Company as bookkeeper, but was soon made western sales agent. In 1886 he went to St. Paul, Minnesota, to become general manager and treasurer of the Ohio Coal Company. From May, 1900, umtil his death from pneumonia, March 7, 1904, he was con- nected with W. I. Bogle Coal Company, Chicago.


On May 20, 1867, Mr. McWilliams married Louise G. Benham, born in Middletown, Connecticut, in February, 1846, and she died on the 22d of July, 1889, in Buffalo, without issue. His second marriage occurred in St. Paul, March 31, 1892, to Caroline Esther Nason, born in State Line, Chautauqua county, N. Y., March 26, 1853, daughter of Elisha K. and Caroline Elizabeth ( Burrows) Nason. The mother was born at Water- town, N. Y., a daughter of Ezra and Caroline ( Butler ) Burrows. also of that state. The father was born in Laurens, Otsego county, N. Y., son of Northrup and Esther ( Rouse ) Nason. He served as prothonotary and in most of the local offices of North East township, Erie county. He was also a member of the legislature from this district, and was in the tanning and also general merchandise business. Mrs. Mc Williams married first. June 6, 1872. Charles Bartlett Howard, of Buffalo, and they had one son, Charles Edward Nason, born November 10, 1873, and now a pay- master in the United States army, making a tour in the Phillipines, with station at Manila, his family and mother being with him. He married Charlotte Agnes Small on October 31, 1906. She was born in Liverpool, England, March 30, 1879, to James Hampden and Charlotte ( Whaley ) Small. They have two sons, Charles Edward Nason, Jr., born September 8, 1907, and James Hampden, November 4, 1908. Since the death of her second husband, Mrs. Mc Williams resides part of the year in North East and the rest of the time with her son, Capt. Howard.


WILLIAM J. MURRAY. A young man of sound business education, a good executive and a citizen of staunch character, William J. Murray, assistant postmaster at Girard, is of an old New York family, the field of whose useful work was afterward transferred to the industrial bus- iness and official life of northwestern Pennsylvania. He is a son of John D. and Mary (Tate) Murray, the father born at Alt. Vernon. Ohio, January 24. 1853. The grandparents were James M. and Mary

HISTORY OF ERIE COUNTY


(Colger) Murray, the former serving many years as captain of a pas- senger and freight vessel plying on Chautauqua Lake, New York, and dying at Jamestown, that state, in 1888 at the age of sixty-two years. The father of William J. followed the machinist's trade in his youth and early manhood at Dunkirk, New York, and in 1877, when twenty- four years of age, located at Girard as superintendent of a wrench factory. In name, he still holds the same position, but within the thirty-two years during which he has been at the head of its mechan- ical department the business has grown to large proportions, with a corresponding increase of his responsibilities. He has also served on the school board and the city council and is a solid, able, moral and representative citizen of Girard. In politics, the elder Mr. Girard is a Republican ; in fraternalism, a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and, in religion, a Roman Catholic. His wife (nee Mary Tate) is a daughter of William and Mary (Johnson) Tate, both natives of Scotland. Her father was an industrious, unpretentious, honorable mechanic, who died in 1906 at the age of sixty-four, while her good mother lived to be but forty-nine. Mrs. John D. Murray is a native of Erie, born November 23, 1860.


William John Murray, of this sketch, was born in Girard February 6, 1883, and after taking courses in the common and high schools of his native city entered the Davis Commercial College, of Erie, where he familiarized himself with practical business systems and modern commercial methods. Graduating from the institution named he was thoroughly prepared to assume the clerical position in the Girard post- office to which he was appointed, performing his duties to such satis- faction that he was promoted to his present office, that of assistant postmaster. He is both a stanch Republican and a citizen upon whom reliance can always be placed to do the honest and the appropriate thing.


On the 10th of August, 1908, Mr. Murray married Miss Blanche E. Miller, who is a native of Ohio, born November 25, 1884, to Alva A. and Myra (Woodworth) Miller. Roger Miller, the grandfather, was a New York farmer boy who settled in Lake county, Ohio, and there made his way to independence and absolute respect. He mar- ried Margaret Bennett, youngest daughter of Lionel and Sarah (Nor- ton) Bennett, representing an old and thrifty Cortland county family. The parents moved to Madison, Lake county, early in 1819. They already had one child, Lionel L., afterward a leading physician in Ashtabula and Geauga counties. Locating on a large farm near Lake Erie, Mr. and Mrs. Bennett devoted themselves to the hard task of fashioning a homestead from a wilderness, and successfully accom- plished it long before they went to rest, the father dying September 2, 1879, and the mother, February 28, 1887. Four children were born to them in Madison, their only daughter, Margaret, January 4, 1834. She became the wife of Roger S. Miller in June, 1854, and her husband (grandfather of the postmaster) died in 1901; the widow still resides on the old parental farm. Mr. and Mrs. Roger S. Miller became the parents of two children : Alva A. married Myra Woodruff of Geneva, and resides in Collinwood, Ohio, where her husband is a conductor on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway, and the younger of their two children, Blanche E., is the wife of William J. Murray. Of Lionel Bennett and wife, Mrs. Murray's grandparents who brought


704


HISTORY OF ERIE COUNTY


the family name into Ohio, it may be said that they were industrious, kindly, God-fearing people ; that the community never embraced better friends, neighbors or Christians and that the world is more advanced and much better because of their lives. Mrs. Murray, the only sur- viving offspring of her parents, at the time of her marriage was a suc- cessful teacher in the public schools of Collinwood, Ohio, and her standing was the result of faithful preparation. She first pursued a course in the Normal School at Cleveland and was also identified with the staff of the well known American School of Correspondence at that city and Grand Rapids, Michigan. Both Mr. and Mrs. Murray are most popular in the intellectual and social circles of Girard.


JOHN MILLER, author of this "History of Erie County," was born January 31, 1849, at Gourock, a small town on the lower Clyde, Scot- land. His father, John Miller, was the son of a farmer of Drumshante, Renfrewshire ; his mother, Margaret Nicholson, was the daughter of John Nicholson, the leading tanner and currier of Greenock, who afterwards emigrated to St. Johns, New Brunswick, and became ex- tensively engaged in the manufacture of lumber and in the tanning industry, owning extensive tracts in the Miramichi district-her grandfather, James Cameron, also in the tanning business, was in his day one of the leading citizens of Greenock, and as a Chartist promi- nent in the politics of North Britain, so prominent that he was im- prisoned in Dumbarton Castle on account of his utterances on the hustings, and released only when in parliament the measures he advo- cated were at length carried. The ancestry of John Miller included, therefore, on his father's side, the lowland Scotch-of the Saxon strain -and on his mother's, the highland Celts, including the Reids and Camerons.


In 1851 Mr. Miller came with his parents to America, landing at Boston, where the family remained two years. After two years in Geneva, New York, another flitting took them to London, Canada, in 1855. Here the family remained until May, 1864, and it was in Lon- don that the subject of this sketch obtained his "schooling." This con- sisted of seven years at St. George's, one of the outlying schools of the public school establishment of London. His master was William Ir- win, a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin, a masterful man, a ripe scholar. and a painstaking teacher. Most of the school books were publications under the direction of the provincial department of edu- cation, and included readers. geographies, and works on mensuration and algebra. During the educational term of John Miller the local school board had adopted Bullion's grammar, Sangster's arithmetic. Amelia B. Edward's History of England, and Chamber's Elements of Euclid. It was not a graded school, but under the able direction of Mr. Irwin rapid and substantial progress was made by the scholars, for the old master, even while taking a hand at cricket or rounders with the pupils in the playground, was alert to correct errors in gram- mar or to illustrate the principle of the angle of incidence and coinci- dence, or to enforce some other scientific truth.


School came to an end the summer of 1863, when John Miller was under the necessity of lending a hand toward the support of a family of children that with him numbered eight. His father, a contracting carpenter, had learned the secret of refining petroleum-for it was a


705


HISTORY OF ERIE COUNTY


secret in the early days-and had embarked in the business. His capi- tal was small, and the load he had to carry a heavy one. So the son entered the printing office of the Advertiser, under John Cameron, as an apprentice. The father failed in business, and left to better his fortunes in the Pennsylvania oil region, but on reaching Erie, decided to locate at that point, which seemed to be destined to become the center of oil. The family followed in May, 1864.


John Miller, the son, found employment in the job room of the Dispatch, working for three years. Afterward he worked for a time on the North East Herald; then for four years was printer and ship- ping clerk at Downing's general insurance agency, which he left for a place in the Ashby & Vincent printing office. He was employed in the office of the Gazette when it became the property of F. A. Crandall, in 1873, and when the Sunday Gasette was started in March, 1875, was promoted to the post of city editor, remaining until 1882, at that time changing to the Dispatch. As city and telegraph editor he remained with the Dispatch until 1890, leaving to become a stockholder and writer for the Times. In 1893 he accepted a position with the Provi- dence Journal, in charge of the dramatic and musical department, which he held until invited to return to Erie and take an editorial po- sition on the Dispatch which he held until the sale of that property, in 1902, left him without a position. Thereupon he engaged in the gen- eral insurance business.


His father, for many years a contracting builder in Erie, was so hard pressed by the stringency following the panic of 1873, that he removed to Georgia, and at length made progress. The first thought upon finding his condition improved, being the debts he left in Canada, he at once went to his old home in London and obtained a clean balance sheet. This is mentioned to show the stuff of which he was made. He was the soul of probity. Deeply religious, as became a Scotchman, his religion was not solely for Sunday use. In his Geor- gia home, where he died in 1896, he was one of the earliest of the pro- hibitionists, and though he did not live to see the principles he advo- cated prevail in that state, he had the satisfaction of noting that progress was made.


John Miller, of this sketch, was married in 1875 to Anna M. El- liott, a daughter of John Elliott, of Barnard Castle, England, and Pa- melia B. Townsend, his wife, whose people were of the pioneers of Cleveland, Ohio, prominent in business in the early days of that city. Mr. and Mrs. Miller have two children, Maud Oenone, wife of Rev. H. W. McCombs, of the Pittsburg presbytery, and Donald Came- ron, a student at Cornell University.
