STOAKS Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit FROM: History of Medina Co., OHIO (Baskin & Battey - 1881) Pages 728 & 729 JAMES C. STOAKS, planing-mill and lumber-dealer, Seville; was born March 13, 1827, in Steuben Co., N.Y. His father, John Stoaks, was born in New Jersey, reared in Orange Co., N.Y., and is a son of Alexander Stoaks, who came to America from Ireland. He was a school-teacher by profession, and served with distinction in the Revolutionary War. John was a wagon-maker by trade, and married a lady by the name of Clarissa Sutton, a native of Orange Co. Her father, William Sutton, was of Scotch descent, and one of the heroes of the Revolutionary War, in which he was taken prisoner, and suffered without a murmur in defense of his country. In 1844, John Stoaks, with his wife and family of nine children, removed to Seville, Ohio, where he died the following year, being then in his 50th year. His wife died in 1852. James learned the trade with his father, but, unlike many others who leave the parental roof when of legal age, he supported the family until the death of his mother, which separated the family. He followed the trade, and was doing a good business in Seville, but, in 1864, he closed his shop and he and his thirteen hands, with one exception, entered the army, that one being unfit for military duty. He enlisted in Co. F, 166th O.N.G., and was detailed for duty in the commisary department. On his return, he farmed four years, and then engaged in the hardward business, which he followed until recently, when failing health enduced him to withdraw and enter into his present business relations. His marriage was celebrated Sept. 26, 1851, Maria L. Cook becoming his wife. She was born July 4, 1830, in Medina Co., Ohio, being a daughter of Alva and Lydia (Cooper) Cook, old settlers of the county. Mr. Cook died in 1860, and Mrs. Cok in Feb 1880. Mr. Stoaks' union has been fruitful of three children - Hattie (wife of William Cunningham), Mary E. (teacher in the Sevelle schools) and Sarah B. They are members of the Presbyterian Church, which Mr. Stoaks joined when 14 years old, and in which he has been Elder twenty-five years. Is a Republican, and voted first for Van Buren, on the Free-Soil ticket. Page 341 - Within a section of those men from Medina Co., who served in the Civil War. JAMES C. STOAKS, Q.M.S., Co.
