    where he owns sixty-three acres of land. He came to this county in
    the spring of 1863, with his parents and seven other children, who
    settled across the road in Noble County, opposite to where he now
    lives. The father died near Webster, on a farm he then owned, the
    13th of Dec., 1882. He was born in Northampton County PA, and was
    sixty-five years of age when he died. The mother, formerly Margaret
    Strieby, is living on the old farm where the family first settled when
    they came to Indiana. She is two years younger than her husband.
    Both parents were born in Stark County, OH. The brothers and sisters of
    our subject were the following--Nathaniel, who died in 1878, near
    Aetna, Noble County; Eliza Jane married Alexander Miksch, and died in
    1865, while her husband was in the army. William S. was born May 1,
    1842, in Tuscarawas County OH, where he was reared to manhood. August
    17, 1862, he enlisted in the United States service, and was honorably
    discharged the 28th of Dec. 1862. He was a member of Company K,
    Ninety-eighth Ohio Infantry, and served under General Buell, in KY.
    He was discharged on account of a wound received at the battle of
    Perryville. He was wounded by a minie ball in his left thigh, and was
    taken to a hospital at Perryville; thence to Lebanon; thence to
    Louisville. He was married Nov. 19,1868, to Miss Sarah C. Knepper,
    who was born in Franklin County PA, Jan. 29, 1847. When she was a year
    old her parents brought her to Noble County, where she was reared to
    womanhood. Her father was born in Cumberland County PA, and is now
    sixty-seven years old. The mother was born in Franklin Co. same
    state, and is now sixty-five years old. They are living on the farm
    where they first settled. Both parents are of German origin. Mr.
    Stocker's grandfather died when William was five or six years old. He
    has given considerable attention to bee-raising. In the spring of
    1885 he had three swarms of bees, and they have now increased to
    twelve swarms and produced 300 lbs. of honey. In the fall of 1885 he
    sold two swarms, and in the following spring commenced with ten
    swarms, and they have produced five or six hundred lbs. of honey. The
    comb honey sells for 15 cents per pound.Politically he affiliates
    with the Republican party."

    Notes:

    "MICHEAL STOCKER AND HIS DESCENDANTS" by Charles L. Stocker and
    Jennie Stewart: " Andrew Stocker, third child and second son of the
    family of Andreas and Julianna, was born May 25, 1778, as determined
    by the inscription on his tombstone. His birthplace was Northampton
    County Pa, in what is now the Boro of Stockertown in Forks Twp. Here he
    lived until he was about 37 years of age, when he sold his farm and
    with wife and 3 or 4 children joined his four brothers and sister who
    were seeking a new home in the Ohio country. Moving by team and wagon
    over the Pa. mountains and across the Ohio, they continued to the
    valley of the Huskingum, later called the Tuscarawas. Here they
    settled within a few miles of each other, Andrew on a fine farm on the
    bank of the river about two miles west of Gnadenhutten...and here
    Andrew lived out his life." "Public records show that he carried
    with credit his part as a citizen of a pioneer community...His space
    in the old Moravian Cemetery at Gnadenhutten is near the graves of his
    brothers Adam and Christian, and is marked by a simple marble slab set
    upright, with the inscription stating that he died Dec. 6, 1852, aged
    74 years, 6 months and 12 days."

    Notes:

    "STRIEBY Genealogy and History 1726-1967" by Byard B. Strieby, B.
    Beatrice Strieby, and Irene M. Strieby (MacDonald Letter Services County,
    Des Moines, Iowa, 1967) John Strieby--"An improved county road,
    which leads from the little village of Bolivar, OH, in Lawrence Twp.,
    Tuscarawas County, to the slightly larger village of Strasburg, in the
    neighboring twp. of Franklin, takes one over the beautiful hill
    country near Stark County line. Crossing this road, about a mile south of
    Bolivar, is the "Old Strasburg Rd.", a winding gravel trail thru
    scenic territory, forking to the NW. On the left hand side of the
    road, about a mile from the junction is an abandoned cemetary almost
    hidden from view. It is here that the compiler found the graves of
    John Strieby and wife in a plot with corner posts, indicating it was
    once enclosed by an iron chain fence. The large tombstones had been
    laid flush with the ground rather than in upright position and were
    scarcely visible thru the overgrowth of myrtle...This cemetery is
    probably located near the old home of John and his wife in Lawrence
    Twp." "John Strieby also owned land in Salem Tract farther south in
    Tuscarawas County Several deeds in County records give evidence of his
    various transactions as also on his estate administration documents
    and Chancery records." "That the family clung to its German
    background is evidence by books in that language listed in the sale of
    property (Probate Bk. 4:396ff) as well as their membership in the
    Reformed Church. About 1835, Conrad Zutavern and wife, Anna Maria,
    together with John Strieby and wife Anna Maria, sighed a deed for
    parts of Lots 16 and 17, Sec.2, Twp. 10, for a "German Presbyterian
    and Lutheran Church to be known as Paul's Chruch" (Deed Bk. 10:212).
    John was trustee of this church said to be torn down about 1925.
    According to Beer' p. 573, Strieby, Fernsells, and others were members
    of a Lutheran Society formed in 1822.
    "HISTORY OF KOSCIUSKO COUNTY" "William (brother of Margaret
    Strieby/Stocker) was born in PA March 23, 1811, a son of John and
    Maria (Richel) Strieby, also natives of Pa. In the same year that
    William was born his parents moves to Tuscarawas County OH...."
    "STREVEY FAMILY HISTORY" by Maxine Strevey Scott, p. 6. " After
    the death of his father, John Strieby chose John Mosher of Whitehall
    Twp. for his guardian."
