    Harry L. Burgoyne, the well-known attorney, of Cincinnati, Ohio, whose
success in his chosen calling, has been gained by the strict adherance to
honesty, and integrity, was born in Hamilton county, Ohio, June 15, 1860, a son
of John and Jennie (Green) Burgoyne, Jr. John Burgoyne, Jr., was a son of John
Burgoyne, who came to this county in 1814. John, Jr. was born in 1831 and was a
native of Cincinnati, where he lived for seventy-two years. He was an attorney

"educated in the public schools of Cincinnati. He entered the Cincinnati Law

birthday, in Cincinnati, where he remained for one year, later removing to
