Mrs. Spangenberg's paternal grandparents, Abrahami and Anna ( Span- genberg) Kizer, were lifelong residents of New Jersey, as were also her maternal grandparents, John and Betsy Bartlo.

Elder William Spangenberg, the subject proper of this review, received a liberal education at the public schools of the neighborhood of his boyhood liome, and remained with his parents on the farm until he was nineteen years of age. when he began

life for himself, purchasing a farm in Salem town- slip, Wayne county. Operating same six years, he sold out at the end of that time, and during the sub- sequent fourteen years was for the most part serving as a conductor on the Gravity railroad. In 1851-52, however, he carried on a mercantile store in Jeffer- son township, Luzerne county, and from there went to Erie county, N. Y., where he farmed one year, thence returning to his old employment as conductor

on the Gravity railroad. In 1860 he was licensed to preach by the Christian denomination, and has con- tinued in that connection ever since. He has or- ganized many Churches throughout New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania, has done much Chris- tian work among railroad people, and is still active in local work as the weather may permit. Polit- ically he was originally a Whig, then a Republican after the organization of that party, and for seven years he was postmaster at Pink, but resigned in 1896. He and his wife at present make their home on the farm belonging to their daughter, Mrs. Mary E. Ingle. in Lake township, and they are looked up to with the highest respect by a wide circle of friends and acquaintances, bv whom they are hon- ored and esteemed for their many virtues.

REV. SEWARD ELIAKIM MILLER (de- ceased ) was for a quarter of a century a prominent minister of the Baptist Church preaching through- out Susquehanna and Lackawanna countics. He la- bored with all the strength of a great nature and all the earnestness of a truc heart for the bettering of the world about him; and when called to the rest and reward of the higher world. his best monument was found in the love and respect of those who knew him.

Mr. Miller was born June 7, 1825, within a few rods of the present home of his family in Clif- ford township, Susquehanna county. His father, Rev. Charles Miller, also a minister of the Baptist Church for over forty years, was born in Brooklyn, Susquehanna county. March 20, 1793, and died in Clifford township, March 20, 1865, his remains be- ing interred in Clifford cemetery. The grandfather, !

Adam Miller, was a native of Ireland, and on his emigration to America located in Philadelphia. where he married Elcanor Nicholson, a native of that city, and a cousin of Comptroller General Nicholson. There they continued to reside until 1787, when they came to Susquehanna county and settled in Brook- lyn township, near the village of that name. In Scott township, Lackawanna county (then Northumber- land county), Rev. Charles Miller married Miss .Algytha Orvis, who was born August 8, 1792. in that township when it formed a part of Luzerne county, and died in Clifford township, Susque- hanna county, December 3, 1856. Her parents were Roger and Marianne ( Seward) Orvis, natives of New York State, who also died in Clifford town- ship, having come from Scott township, Lackawanna county, to spend their last days with their children. The children born to Rev. Charies and Algytha ( Or- vis) Miller were Mary, deceased wife of William S. Finn ; Charles Nicholson and Joseph S., both de- ceased ; Rev. William A., a Baptist minister of Clifford township; Jerusha, who married Joei Wheeler Finn and died in Kansas; Seward E., our subject ; Loren, who died after his return from the army ; and Stephen, who died in St. Louis, Missouri.

On January 3, 1855, at the home of Rev. Will- iam K. Mott, in Providence, Penn., Elder Seward E. Miller was united in marriage with Miss E. Anne Gardner, who was born in Scott township, Lacka- wanna county, February 24, 1831, a daughter of William and Susan ( Barriger ) Gardner, the former a native of Luzerne county, the latter of Delaware, Pike county. Her parents died in Scott town- ship, where they had made their home for over seventy years, and were buried in Scott Valley cemetery. The father, who was a farmer by occu- pation, was born November 23, 1799, and died October 22, 1880, and the mother died October 20, 1896, at the age of eighty-eight years. Their children were Charlotte, deceased wife of John Knight; Mary L., deccased wife of Hiram Wells ; E.

(3) Frank S., who was principal of the Everetts schools, later a professor at Pierce Business Col- lege, Philadelphia, and superintendent of the Ma- hanoy schools. Subsequently he was admitted to the Lackawanna bar and was an attorney at the time of his death, which occurred December 26, 1896. He married Clara M. Gardner. (4) Charles H., who died March 9, 1885. (5) Hugh C., who died November 20, 1885. (6) Eugene K., who is a salesman in Scranton, Penn. (7) Ruth D., who is at home ; and ( 8) RALPH WILLIAM, who lives on the old homestead, which has been the home of four generations of the name.

In early life Elder Miller studied law. and was was admitted to the Lackawanna County Bar, after having been a student in the office of Lathrop & Jones, of Carbondale. . He pleaded his first ease at Wilkes Barre, but soon abandoned the profession. On July 10, 1868, at the Greenfield Church, Laeka- wanna county, he was ordained a minister, and from that time up to within a few weeks of his death he engaged in preaching, having charge of churches in Lenox, Harford and Clifford town- ships, Susquehanna county, besides some in Lacka- wanna county. He often preached in school-houses and did much missionary work, most of the time receiving no compensation for his services. In early life he was a strong anti-slavery man, was also an anti-Mason and a man of decided opinions. Politically he was a Prohibitionist, and he held the offices of school director and poormaster for many years, and his support was always given every enterprise for the public good. He died on the home farm in Clifford township, April 23, 1885, and was buried in Clifford Valley cemetery, of which he was one of the organizers. He was faith- ful to his church, to his country and to his friends, and in his home was a most exemplary husband and father. His death occasioned the deepest regret throughout the community, and the county thereby lost one of its valued citizens.

VAN CAMP PETERS. The Peters family has long been prominent in Pike county, and for several generations its members have been active in the varied interests which have tended to the rapid development of that section. Coming of shrewd, thrifty Holland-Dutch stock, they have made the best of citizens, and the name is a synonym for ability and integrity and enterprise. The first an- eestor of whom we have definite record was Peter Peters (the great-grandfather of the successful young business man of Stroudsburg whose name opens this sketch). That worthy pioneer, who was a miller by trade, came from Holland about the time of the Revolutionary war, accompanied by two brothers, Henry and John, and landing at Philadelphia, made his home for several years at Chestnut Hill, near that eity. Later he removed to Easton, and finally to Stroudsburg, where his last days were spent.

Henry Peters, the grandfather of our subject,

was born near Philadelphia in September, 1787, and died March 2, 1857. On January 16, 1814, he married Sarah Gunsaules, who was born July 23, 1794, in what is now Middle Smithfield township. Monroe county. Soon after his marriage Henry Peters bought a large tract of timber land front Judge John Coolbaugh and a Mr. Van Horn, of Easton, the purchase ineluding most of the present site of the village of Bushkill, Pike county. Here he built a humble dwelling, and engaged in lumber- ing and rafting, and as other settlers came to the locality, he became interested in milling and in mer- cantile business. His log cabin ( which contained only one window with four panes of glass ) was the. first tavern in the neighborhood, travelers being entertained there in primitive style, and after his death that business was continued there for some time by one of his sons. The building was finally torn down, after standing more than a century. and near its former site stands the handsome resi- dence of Mrs. Charles R. Peters. Henry Peters was the virtual founder of Bushkill, and was the first postmaster at that place, the office having ever since been held by some member of the family. He was a man of strong character and high stand- ing, industrious and economical in his habits, and . scrupulously upright in his dealings with others. His descendants still own the greater part of the land in and around Bushkill, now an attractive vil- lage, much frequented by summer tourists in search of picturesque scenery and healthful surroundings. To Henry and Sarah Peters the following children were born : Elizabeth ( 1814-1858 ) : Elsie ( 1817), widow of Henry M. La Bar; Delinda P. ( 1819- 1871), who married Henry S. Mott, of Milford; Charles R .; Maria; Catherine Eilenberger : and Samuel G., the last named being now engaged in business at Bushkill.

Charles Ridgway Peters, the father of our subject, was born February 12. 1822, and died De- eember 2, 1867. He was engaged in farming and hotel-keeping at Bushkill throughout his life. and won the respect of all his associates by his sterling qualities of character. Although he was never an aspirant after public honors he took much interest in politics, being a stanch Democrat in principle, while he was also active in Church work. On February 4, 1852, he married Miss Elizabeth E. Coolbaugh, daughter of John Coolbaugh. and three children were born to the union: Edwin F., Harry and Van Camp.

Our subject was born June 17, 1862, at Bush- kill, and after completing the course of study in the local schools attended the seminary at Kings- ton, Penn. Having determined upon a business career, he took a course in the Eastman Business College, Poughkeepsie. N. Y., acquiring a thorough training in the methods of practical finance. He then formed a partnership and engaged in the grocery business at Pittston, Penn., but he soon afterward sold his interest and accepted a clerkship in the Stroudsburg National Bank. Later he was

1144

in business with his uncle, Hon. Luke Brodhead. at Water Gap, but since 1887 he has devoted his attention to the tanning business, in connection with the Stroudsburg Tannery. Politically he is a Democrat, but he is not an office seeker.

On December 27, 1887. Mr. Peters married Miss Edith M. Knighton. Her father, the late Rev. Frederick Knighton, had been heavily inter- ested in the Stroudsburg Tannery, with which Mr. Peters is now connected. Mr. and Mrs. Peters are leading members of the Presbyterian Church at Stroudsburg, and take an active part in its varied lines of work. They have three bright children : Knighton, Henry and Adelaide.

Rev. Frederick Knighton, D. D., who was for many years an honored clergyman of the Presby- terian Church, was born April 1, 1814. in Derby, England, and died at Stroudsburg, September 9, 1888, after a long but comparatively painless illness. He was of English parentage, and in his character displayed many of the best traits of that sturdy race. Dr. Knighton spent his youth in New Jer- sey and was educated at Princeton, graduating from the college in 1838, and from the Theological Seminary in 1841. Later he studied- law with Judge Green, of the same city, but he never prac- ticed that profession. For several years previous to his graduation he taught school, and after leav- ing school he continued that occupation for a time at various places, including Hamburg and Glouces- ter, N. J .; Alexandria, Fredericksburg and Din- widdie Court House, Va .; Belvidere, N. J., and Milford and Stroudsburg, Penn. In 1833, when a young man, he came to Stroudsburg and taught a public school in the old seminary for two years, having for one of his pupils Judge S. S. Dreher. During that time he boarded with Stroud J. Hol- linshead, keeper of the "Stroudsburg House" (now Burnett).

The following article gives a brief resume of his labors, and is a high testimonial of his char- acter and usefulness :

It having pleased the Lord to remove, by death, the Rev. Frederick Knighton, D. D., a member of the Presby- tery of Newton, the Presbytery would place on its records the following minute :--

Dr. Knighton was licensed by the Presbytery of East Hanover, V'a., in April, 1847; was ordained by the Presbytery of West Jersey, November, 1851, served the Gloucester City Presbyterian Church, as pastor, a short time, from this date; took charge of the Academy at Belvidere. N. J .. in the fall of 1854, and, soon after, began to supply the First Presbyterian Church of Oxford. He served this church until the summer of 1873 Since leaving First Oxford in 1873, he continued to supply feeble Churches for short periods, and has preached for his brethren, as called upon to suppy their pulpits, resid- ing for the last ten years in Stroudsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Dr. Knighton was a man of eminently scholarly tastes and attainments He was one of the few liberally educated persons who keep up their interest in more Strictly literary studies. His superior natural ability and acquirements would have fitted him well for a professor's chair. He was much interested in the cause of education. Several persons, now in the Gospel Ministry, and other professions, express themselves as greatly indebted to him for valuable instruc- tion in pursuing their Academic studies.

His work, while in the First Oxford Church, was greatly

blessed, a new Church-edifice having been built, and large accessions made to the membership of the Church: and he was instrumental in doing foundation work in the establish- ment of the Second Church of Oxford. He served as Chap- lain of the Eleventh Regiment N. J. Vols., for the term of nine months, during our late Civil war. His work has been accomplished, and he has entered into his rest.

One after another the members connected with the Presbytery of Newton, when Dr. Knighton became a miem- ber of this body, have been separated from us, by death or otherwise, until but one remains. The admonition comes to all the present members of this Presbytery: "Be ye also ready."

Resolved, That the Presbytery, hereby, expresses its deep sympathy with the family of Dr. Knighton, and that a copy of this minute be forwarded to them by the Stated Clerk.

Adopted by the Presbytery of Newton, at Washington, N. J.,

this third day of October, A. D. 1888.

[Signed] Attest, E. CLARKE CLINE, Stated Clerk.

The Doctor was a member of Wadsworth Grand Army Post, of Stroudsburg, and a large delegation attended the funeral services which were held at his late home, the remains being afterward removed to Towanda, Penn., for interment. In 1841 the Doctor married Miss Sarah Wilson. daughter of a prominent citizen of Princeton. She survives him with two daughters: the eldest mar- ried Noble N. Betts, a banker of Towanda, Penn. ; and the younger is now the wife of our subject.
