Hoke, Solomon, Warren, was born in Minden July 1, 1827, and is a son of Peter
and Margaret (Countryman) Hoke.   Peter served in the war of 1812.   He was a 
Lutheran and a Democrat and died in 1844. They had four sons and eight 
daughters. Solomon Hoke, the youngest son, at the age of seventeen began the 
carpenter's trade, which he followed ten years, when he began farming in 
Jefferson county. In 1856 he sold out and settled in Danube, and in 1869 moved 
to Warren, where he now owns 124 acres of land. In 1854 he married Catherine
