Subject: BROWN - History of Ohio


HISTORY OF OHIO, The American Historical Society, Inc., 1925
Volume IV, page 189

        DANIEL WEBSTER BROWN gained varied experience and no little fame as
a newspaper cartoonist, and the successful record which he made in this
connection begot in him that permanent liking for journalism that
eventually led him to engage independently in newspaper publishing, he
being now the president of the corporation which owns and publishes the
Youngstown Citizen, a well ordered and popular paper that is issued on
Friday of each week and that has a large and representative circulation in
Youngstown and the territory tributary to this vital industrial city.
        Mr. Brown was born at Akron, Ohio, January 28, 1876, when that now
important city was little more than a village. He is a son of Daniel Wilson
Brown and Clara C. (Hardy) Brown, both likewise natives of Summit County,
Ohio, and both representatives of families there founded in an early day.
The paternal grandparents of him whose name introduces this review were
James R. and Eliza Brown, the former of whom was born in Summit County and
the latter in Canada. The maternal grandparents, William H. and Elvira M.
(Dales) Hardy, were lifelong residents of Summit County.
        Mr. Brown was but eighteen months old at the time of his mother's
death, and he was reared in the home of his maternal grandparents. He
profited by the advantages of the public schools of his native county and
also attended Buchtel College, which is now Akron University. While
attending school he gave attention also to the study of architectural art
and science, and also had a goodly experience in farm work, with which he
continued to be identified until he attained to his legal majority. In the
meanwhile he had well developed his natural talent as an artist, and he put
this talent into effective play when he became a cartoonist on the Akron
Democrat, with which he thus continued his alliance two years. The
following year he held a similar position with the Akron Beacon Journal,
and his next association was with the Canton Democrat, at the county seat
of Stark County. Thereafter he gave effective service about one year as a
cartoonist for the Cleveland Press, and his next experience was that of
cartoonist with the Boston Post, during a period of eighteen months. He
then returned from the Massachusetts metropolis to Akron, and soon
afterward removed to Youngstown, where for three and one-half years he was
allied with the Youngstown Telegram and with the Youngstown Vindicator one
year. He then accepted the position of advertising manager for the Republic
Rubber Company, with which important industrial corporation he thus
continued his connection eight and one-half years. In the meantime he
founded the Youngstown Citizen, the destinies of which he effectively
guided,and when a company was incorporated for continuing the publication
under broader policies he became president of the company, which executive
post he has since retained. E. A. Watkins is the vice president and William
Myers the secretary and treasurer.
        Mr. Brown has taken lively interest in military affairs since he
was sixteen years old, he having then enlisted in the Ohio State Militia
and having won appointment to the office of sergeant major under Charles F.
Dick and Charles C. Weybreacht, the latter of whom was major of the Eight
Ohio Volunteer Infantry in the period of the Spanish-American war. Mr Brown
accompanied his command to Cuba, where he was in active service a few
months, his honorable discharge having been granted him at the close of the
war on Cuban soil. In connection with American participation in the World
war Mr. Brown helped organize for service as home guard the Youngstown
Infantry Regiment, and after the close of the war he received his honorable
discharge as major of the Fourth Battalion, which he commanded. While an
active member of the Ohio National Guard he was several times called into
active service in connection with quelling disorder in connection with
strikes and riots.
        The principles of the republican party receive the loyal support of
Mr. Brown. He has passed the various official chairs, including that of
exalted ruler, in Youngstown Lodge No. 55, Benevolent and Protective Order
of Elks, he is past master of Saint Albans Lodge, Fee and Accepted Masons,
and is at the time of this writing, in the summer of 1924, an official of
Ashlar Chapter, and he is also a member of the Knights of Malta.
        In November, 1898, was recorded the marriage of Mr. Brown and Miss
Susan O. Auble, who likewise was born at Akron, this state, she being a
daughter of John H. and Harriet (Day) Auble, the latter's father having
been a clergyman of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr. and Mrs. Brown have
four children, Dorothy, Edwin W., John W., and Ruth E. All of the children
remain at the parental home except Dorothy, who is the wife of Hubert
Westcott, of this city, their two children being Theodore and Helen Jean.

THE HISTORY OF OHIO, The American Historical Society, Inc., 195
Volume IV, page 218
        REV. JOHN HENRY HULL, of Kent, has given over forty years to the
ministry of the Congregational Church, most of his service in Ohio or
Michigan, though for some years he was in the Northwest.
        He was born in Erie County, Ohio, in July, 1849, son of John Lynn
and Eliza Wilson (Harah) Hull, his father a native of Pennsylvania and his
mother of Warren, Ohio. John L. Hull was a farmer and stockdealer, and
lived for more than sixty years at Sandusky, Ohio. Other children of John
L. were Judge Lynn W. Hull, of Sandusky, and Mrs. Ida M. Barber, wife of
Judge J.A. Barber, of Toledo. Rev. John Henry Hull attended high school at
Sandusky, and after further study at Oberlin and some years of teaching he
entered the Oberlin Theological Seminary, where he was graduated in June,
1882. He helped build the first church at Ashtabula Harbor, Ohio and served
as Congregational pastor there for over four years. His next work was in
Cleveland, where for ten years he was pastor of Grace Congregational
Church, and for eight years was pastor at Marble Head, Ohio, where he
helped build the present fine stone church. Going to Michigan he was
jointly pastor at Frankfort, and secretary and man
ager of the Congregational Summer Assembly for six years. From Michigan he
moved to South Dakota, and for a year and one-half was engaged in general
state missionary work, and then became pastor of the Congregational Church
at Deadwood, where he remained three years.
        In October, 1914, Mr. Hull took up his present pastoral duties at
the Congregational Church at Kent, Ohio, and has shared largely in the life
of this community during the past ten years. He has served as moderator of
the Congregational State Conference of Ohio. Since 1893 he has been a
member of the military organization known as the Cleveland Grays, and at
different times has given a service aggregating twelve years as chaplain.
He is a member of the Wranglers Club, Rotary Club, University Club, Chamber
of Commerce and the Knights of Pythias at Kent, and in politics votes
independently.
        Rev. Mr. Hull married in June, 1870, Miss Adelaide M. Gustin, a
native of Erie County, Ohio. She died in 1891, leaving two sons, John L.,
deceased, and George Wilson, who married Erie M. Clemons of Marblehead,
Ohio, who reside in Elmore, Ohio, and have three children, John, Walter and
Adelaide. In 1894 Rev. Mr. Hull married Minnie C. Deming, of Rootstown,
Portage County, Ohio, a daughter of Henry A. and Cordelia M. (Collins)
Deming.By this marriage there is one son, Howard Deming Hull, of Kent, who
married Deborah Milford, of Atlantic, Iowa, and they have a son, Howard
Deming, Jr. All except the more remote members and present children of the
above families studied or graduated at Oberlin.

HISTORY OF OHIO, The American Historical Society, Inc., 1925
Volume I, page 564 (this chapter if Ohio In The Wars Of The Nation)

        General Hull took command of the Ohio troops at Dayton on May 25,
1812, and he was on his way to the Maumee River when Congress declared war.
On arriving at Toledo Bay he sent some of his baggage on to Detroit by
boat. The British captured this boat, and all his papers, containing his
military plans, fell into the hands of the enemy. Moreover, the British
commander at Fort Malden was apprised of the declaration of war two days
earlier than General Hull, who arrived with his army at Detroit, July 5. He
had his command between 1,000 and 1,500 men, practically all of them
western frontiersmen and eager to fight.
        General Brock at Fort Malden had a force of inferior numbers,
though he was soon reinforced by Tecumseh and his Indian allies. While Hull
refused the advice of his subordinate officers to take the aggressive,
Brock was exercising every ingenuity to play upon the timidity and fears of
his opponents. After building up his force of Canadians and Indians, Brock
finally took the aggressive and on the 15th of August opened fire on
Detroit. The next day, to the lasting mortification of his soldiers, Hull
made a complete surrender of his entire army. It was complete reversal of
the plans and hopes of the western country. Instead of invading and
capturing Canada, the British forces almost without striking a blow held
all the outlying American posts north and west of the Wabash Valley. On the
day before Hull's surrender, the British and Indians had murdered the
garrison at Fort Dearborn (Chicago). The surrender of Hull had exposed all
Northern Ohio to incursions of the enemy.
