In 1858 Mr. Hostetter was united in marriage with Miss Elizabeth A. Ensminger, a daughter of Samuel Ensminger, who at that time was treasurer of Lancaster county. Three children were born of this union, but two died in infancy. Vennetta, the only one now living, is the wife of H. C. Stauffer, teller in the Manheim National Bank.


Religiously Mr. Hostetter is a member of the Reformed Church : socially he is connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, while politically he is a stanch Republican. He keeps abreast of the times and is thoroughly up-to-date in all respects. As a citizen he ever stands ready to discharge any duty that devolves upon him, and gives his support to every enterprise for the public good. -


JOSEPH K. NEWCOMER. a progressive farmer of Manor township, with his home on his neat farm of thirty-six acres three miles southeast of Columbia, Lancaster Co., Pa., was born on the homestead of which he now owns a part, Nov. 18, 1834, and until twenty-six years of age he devoted his services to his parents and then began opera- tions on his own account on his present property.


On Nov. 18, 1860, Joseph K. Newcomer mar- ried Miss Elizabeth Rohrer, daughter of Rev. Eph- raim Rohrer, of Manor township. This lady died


in 1867, leaving two children, Ephraim, a miller, now in West Hempfield township, and Emma, wife of Amos Doerstler, of Manor township. Joseph K. Newcomer next married. in 1872, Miss Elizabeth Seitz, daughter of Rev. George Seitz. of Manor township, and this union has also been blessed with two children: D. Vernon, a prominent school teacher of Elizabethtown: and Harry S., married to Miss Ella M. Warfel, a school teacher of Conestoga township and a daughter of Aldus C. Warfel, of Millersville, Pennsylvania.


Mr. Newcomer is a devoted and consistent mem- ber of the Mennonite Church, to which he has al- ways given freely and cheerfully of his means, and he has ever been one of the leading and progressive farmers of his township, his surroundings giving ample evidence of his thrift and excellent manage- ment. No man in the township is more highly re- spected, and no one is more justly entitled to the esteem derived from a long and useful life in the community.


JAMES WOOD. Among the representative families of Lancaster county none have stood in higher public estimation through generations than that of Wood. Far back in the time of William Penn the emigrant ancestor of the family started from his home. in Lancashire, England, with his wife and sons, William and Joseph, to find a home with other Quaker families in Pennsvivania. On. the passage another son was born, who was named Richmondav.

This union resulted in the birth of eight children: Alfred, a farmer in Fulton township: Susan, the wife of El- wood H. Townsend, a sketch of whom is given else- where: Jesse. a farmer in Little Britain township : Mary, deceased wife of Davis E. Allen. a farmer of Avondale. Chester county : Lucretia, who is the wife of John W. Smedley of Chester county: Lewis, a farmer of Little Britain township : Ida, who died un- married : and James, of this biography. Sketches are also given of Alfred. Jesse and Lewis. James Wood was one of the leading men in his part of Lancaster county, most highly esteemed both in pub- lic and private life. For many years he was the president of the Farmers National Bank of Oxford, was county commissioner, and one of the most pub- lic-spirited citizens of his part of the State. During a great part of his life he was the administrator of many estates and the trusted guardian of children. Every duty was performed with the integrity of

character for which he was so well known. No more respected man ever lived in Little Britain township than the strict Quaker, James Wood. His descendants are many and worthily represent the stock from which they have sprung.


James Wood, the son. has been a farmer all his life. He is one of the present auditors of the town- ship and an active Republican of the locality. His farm is one of the best and most valuable in the vicinity and displays evidences of the prosperity and good taste of its occupants.


The first marriage of James Wood was to Philena C. Poyd, on Jan. 11, 1887. a daughter of William C. Boyd, of Martic township, and her death occurred Sept. 28, 1892.

SAMUEL MONTEBACH MYERS, for years head of the firm of Myers & Rathfon, the leading clothiers of Lancaster, now head of the firm of S. M. Myers & Co .. because of the retire- ment of Mr. Rathion, is descended from a ver -. old Pennsylvania family, both paternally and maternally. His grandfather, Jacob Myers. was born in Lancaster county, and passed his entire life here.


Frederick MIvers. the father of Samuel M., was a well-known tailor of Manheim. He married Elizabeth Montebach, a native of Warwick town- ship, this county, and a representative of a pioneer family. Eleven children blessed this union, four of whom are living: Margaret, widow of William Thatcher, of Newtown. Rapho township; Elizabeth, wife of Solomon Scholl, of Lancaster: Andrew, a grain dealer of Turon, Kans. ; and Samuel MI., whose name introduces this sketch.


Samuel Montebach Mvers was born in Newtown, Rapho township, Oct. 11, 1824. His education was : received in the schools of the district. Leaving school at the age of fifteen years, young MIvers became an apprentice to the dry-goods business in Columbia, and from there went to Mt. Jov, where for a time he was salesman in a store. He then entered trade on his own account. as a member of the firm of Arndt, Bechtold & Myers, continuing thus until he was elected by the Republicans of Lancaster county to the position of clerk of the Orphans' court, when. with his wife, whom he had married in Mt. Jov, he came to Lancaster. where he has since resided. After serving intelligentiy and faithfully in the office mentioned, Mr. Myers bought out a clothing store in Lancaster, and at the end of the first year associated with himself, as I partner. Jacob Rathfon. This partnership existed for an ordinary lifetime, and was far more than ordinarily successful. For a time the firm carried on the clothing trade in Center Square, and then built the large and elegant establishment at No. 12 East King street, at that time one of the most notable business structures in Lancaster, and even in these days of fine industrial mercantile structures in the city equalled by few of the finest buildings.


Politically Mr. Myers has always been an carnest. stanch and devoted Republican, and in recognition of his devotion to party principles and party interests he was elected county commissioner for three terms (in addition to clerk of the Orphans' court), served a term as member of the common branch of the city councils from the old Northeast

ward, and was strongly urged by thousands of Republicans for member of Congress from this district, and also for mayor of the city.


Mr. Myers has been twice married. His first wife was Anna Mary Dysart, daughter of the late Robert Dysart, ex-coroner of Lancaster county. By this union seven children were born, three of whom are living : Ella C., wife of A. W. Hime, who is in the clothing business in Reading: Margie, wife of Walter W. Hollinger, superintendent of the real estate department of Mvers & Rathion, and now a member of the firm of S. M. Mvers & Co., and Anna Bertha, at home. The mother of these died in January, ISon, and in November. 1900, Mr. Myers married Miss Cornelia Christie, of Cecil county, Maryland.


Associated with Mr. Rathfon Mr. Myers has built fully one hundred dwelling-houses in Lan- caster, including his own elegant home on North Duke street, and the substantial and commodious store building on East King street. Besides all this property, Mr. Myers owns a handsome cottage at Ocean Grove, where he has spent his summers for the past thirty years, and is a member of the board of control of the Ocean Grove Association. In religious circles he is an enthusiastic worker, and is a trustee and class-leader of the First M. E. Church of Lancaster. He was not only one of the promoters, but he contributed one-tenth of the entire cost, of the magnificent new church on North Duke street. He was at one time a member of the . board of managers of the Landisville Camp Meeting Association ; was twice delegate to the General Conference of the Methodist church, and served as a member of the board of stewards of the Phila -. delphia Conference for some years. Indeed, there is no more earnest. more liberal or more prominent Methodist in the state of Pennsylvania. In addition to his church work, which next to the devotion to his family is the mainspring of his life. Mr. Myers is a Knight Templar in Masonry, a member of the Knights of Pythias, and vice-president of the Lancaster Trust Co. In brief, there is no name in Lancaster more widely known or more greatly respected than that of Samuel M. Myers.


JOSEPH P. AMBLER. In every locality where agricultural life is at its best. may be found a number of most estimable citizens, who, after lives of unus- ual activity, have settled down to enjoy advancing years in ease amid the comforts which their early in- dustry has provided. One of the fine farms near Goshen, Pa .. in Fulton township, Lancaster county, is owned and occupied, although no longer operated, by such a man, Joseph P. Ambler.


The Ambler family is one of those which has ma- terially assisted in the settlement and development of the State of Pennsylvania. Some time early in the last century three brothers of this name came from across the Atlantic, one of whom, Edward. be- came the founder of the family in Lancaster county,


and from this ancestor came: Andrew, Edward, William, Elizabeth, the wife of John Rutter, and Ann. the wife of Israel Chills.


William Ambler, the father of Joseph P. Ambler, was born in 1,80, and died in 1862, after a most ex- emplary life. filled with generous and benevolent cieeds. In 1817 he was utiited in marriage to Eliza- beth Penrose, who was born in Bucks county, Pa., and both she and her husband were through life consistent members of the Society of Friends. They reared a family of eight children: Adaline. who was born Nov. 26. 1818. and married James Smedley, of Fulton township, both deceased ; Joseph P., men- tioned below; Owen. born June IO. 1822, deceased ; Thomas E., born in 1824. who died March 27, 1894; Louis and David, who died in childhood, in Mont- gomery county: Edward and Ann, twins, born in 1827, in Drumore township.


Joseph P. Ambler was born Jan. 18, 1820, a son of William and Elizabeth ( Penrose) Ambier, the former of whom was a native of Montgomery coun- ty, and the latter of Bucks county, Pa., of Scotch- Irish ancestry. His education was received in the best schools afforded by the time and place. and he was brought up to the duties of farm life. In those days the greater part of the labor was done by hand, much of the machinery now in use having never been yet thought of, so that when young Joseph started out to make a career for himself. it was with but sev- enty-five cents in money, but with a large and com- plete knowledge, gained through experience, of the management of crops and the raising of cattle.


Spending his money to enable him to cross the Susquehanna river, Joseph Ambler sought farm work, soon found it, and so honest and indus- trious was he and so thorough was his knowl- edge, that he was soon able to command high- er wages than were paid to less useful work- ers, and here he laid the foundations of a for- tune, unusually large to have been acquired through industry alone. A consistent member of the Society of Friends, he has never engaged in specu- lative enterprises, and stands before his community specially honored and esteemed. His present pos- sessions comprise two excellent farms in Fulton township and one in Martic township, aggregating 250 acres of valuable land, all of these being im- proved with commodious barns and comfortable ciwellings : a fine mill property, which is of consid- erable value : while aside from these he has some $20,000 at interest. Joseph Ambler is also financi- ally interested in the Quarryville National Bank, at Quarryville, Pa., being both a director and a stock- holder. and he is one of the leading men in all of the important and progressive enterprises of his local- ity. As a proof of his substantial position, if proof were needed, Mr. Ambler is the largest tax payer in Fulton township.


In 1848 Joseph P. Ambler was married to Eliz- abeth Smedley. who was born in 1824. and died April to, 1800: she was a daughter of Eli Smedley,

" Seven children were born to this union: Leander, who died in child- hood; Lydia, who also died in childhood; Laura, who married Alfred Jewell, of Chester county ; Alva, born March 8, 1860, who died Sept. 7. 1881 ; Sarah, who married Walter P. Reynolds, of Oxford, Pa .; Eli, who died in infancy ; and Charles, who married Lulu Scott, of Little Britain, and resides on the home farm.


In politics Mr. Ambler has been a consistent member of the Republican party, and throughout his life has exerted his influence in favor of law, order and good citizenship. A man of temperate habits, he has set an example to those who follow him. No citizens are more thoroughly representative of the best agriculturists of his county than himself and son, and none are more highly esteemed.
