During his youth he and a brother started for Texas, going down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to New Orleans. They embarked on a ship bound for Galveston. The boat was wrecked and they lost all their baggage. They then walked back to New Orleans, where they discovered that the captain of the wrecked boat had recovered their trunk.

After six weeks they bought a horse and returned to their old home in Adams County, Ohio. Later James Meharry moved to Fountain County, Indiana, where he took up eighty acres of Government land.

They were devout Christians and always stopped on the Sabbath day. They built a home in Fountain County, but in the fall of 1831 moved to Montgomery County, where they lived out their lives. James Meharry was a farmer and stock raiser. During the Civil war he was a staunch upholder of the Union. He showed his public spirit in many ways. For a time he had read medicine and in the absence of a regular doctor he was frequently called in cases of sickness. He and his wife were buried in the Meharry Cemetery in Montgomery County. Their children were: Mary A., wife of Rev. David Crawford; Greenleif N.; Cornelia B., who married James Hickman; James A., deceased; Allen W.

Greenleif N. Meharry received his early education in the schools of Montgomery County and then entered Asbury, now DePauw, University at Greencastle, Indiana. He acquired a good education, had a practical knowledge of farming, and as a young man his father gave him 160 acres of land.

EDWARD V. HAWKINS. From 1873 until his death in 1926, a period of fifty-three years, the late Edward V. Hawkins was one of the substantial citizens of Connersville, and for forty-four years of this time was identified with the Connersville Furniture Company, of which prominent concern he was president at the time of his demise. While he was reared amid agricultural surroundings, he was a born mechanic and from the outset of his independent career was known for his splendid craftsmanship in the designing and manufacture of furniture. As the years passed he rose to prominence and success, and when called by death was known throughout Indiana and the Central West as an exponent of the best ethics if the furniture trade.

Mr. Hawkins was born at Vevay, Switzerland County, Indiana, August 19, 1854, a son of Anthony and Prudence (Adams) Hawkins, the former of whom was an agriculturist who passed his entire life in Switzerland County, where he bore a high reputation as to character and integrity. The rural schools of his native community furnished Edward V. Hawkins with his educational training, following which he began to assist his father on the home farm. His evident talent for mechanics, however, would not be denied, and he left the farm to enter a furniture factory at Vevay, where he quickly mastered his trade. He was but nineteen years of age when, in 1873, he took up his residence at Connersville, and here turned out and made the first dozen bureaus in the plant of the Indiana Furniture Company. Starting in a minor capacity, Mr. Hawkins was promoted consecutively to inspector, foreman and superintendent of the company, in which he also bought stock, and with which he remained until 1882, when he became the organizer and general manager of the Connersville Furniture Company. F. M. Roots was the first president of this concern and N. W. Wright, secretary. Subsequently Charles Mount became president, serving in that capacity until his death, when Mr. Hawkins was made president and continued as such until his own death, January 8,1926. When he was made president his son, E. P. Hawkins, became secretary, and Mrs. Edward V. Hawkins was made first vice president. Later E. P. Hawkins was made general manager, and J. E. Page assumed the secretaryship of the company. A splendid craftsman, learned in all the details of furniture building, Mr. Hawkins was also an excellent business man and a sound executive, and was held in high esteem by his business associates, serving for some years as president of the Indiana Furniture Manufacturers' Association. He served as a trustee, steward and member of the official board of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and was superintendent of the Sunday School for many years. He was an early advocate of prohibition and for many years was president and head of the Blue Ribbon Temperance Club of Connersville. For many years he was a member of the Connersville Board of Education, and for a time was its president. Politically Mr. Hawkins was a Republican, and fraternally he was affiliated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and the Improved Order of Red Men, and he likewise was a constructive member of the Rotary Club. Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins donated the land for a playground for the children of Connersville, which is known as Hawkins Playground.

On December 25, 1877, Mr. Hawkins was united in marriage with Miss Margaret L. Pratt, who was born June 11, 1858, at Duanesburg, Albany County, New York, a daughter of George P. and Helen (Ferguson) Pratt. Her father was born in Gilderland, Schenectady County, New York, and her mother at Duanesburg, Albany County, New York, and as a young couple they came to Connersville, Indiana, where Mr. Pratt was a substantial merchant for many years, and at the time of his demise was the oldest member of his Masonic Lodge. Mrs. Hawkins is ex-regent of Connersville Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, a charter member and an ex-president of the Connersville Cary Club and an active worker in the societies of the Methodist Episcopal Church. She and her husband had one son: Edward Pratt, born November 10, 1881, now a resident of New York City.

ARTHUR D. SULLINS is general manager and superintendent of the Tippecanoe County Infirmary. He was appointed to that position on merit, and has served there consecutively for many years, having made this one of the model institutions of the kind in Indiana. The County Infirmary was established in 1875. The farm comprises 240 acres.

Mr. Sullins was born at West Point, Tippecanoe County, Indiana, February 22, 1881, son of J. M. and Catherine (Swaynie) Sullins. The Sullins family came from Kentucky, first locating at Lebanon in Boone County. J. M. Sullins enlisted as a soldier in the Civil war with the Tenth Indiana Infantry. He was the father of three children: Imogene, deceased; Ethel, wife of C. H. Wilkerson; and Arthur D.

Arthur D. Sullins attended the Centennial School at Lafayette, completed his high school work in Lafayette, and his experience since leaving school has brought him unusual opportunities in a business way. For several years he worked on a fruit farm. He also spent four years in Chicago with the Mandel Brothers Company, and had made rapid advancement, being manager of the furniture warehouse when he resigned.

While in Chicago he met and married another employee of the Mandel Company, Miss Anna B. Hyland. They were married February 8, 1908. Her parents were J. M. and Catherine (Tiernan) Hyland, who were born, in Iowa and moved to Chicago, where Mrs. Sullins finished her schooling. She was left an orphan at an early age and was reared by her aunt, Nora Hyland. After leaving Iowa she went to Chicago and was with Mandel Brothers until her marriage. Mr. and Mrs. Sullins on coming to Indiana lived on a farm for ten years. They had the misfortune to lose both of their children in very early life, and perhaps for that reason both of them have taken the greater interest in their respective tasks as superintendent and matron of the institution which they have directed for the past fifteen years, Mr. Sullins having been twice reappointed to office. The institution is now filled to capacity, having over a hundred inmates, thirty-eight of whom are women. Besides the Home and other provisions for the care of these unfortunate people Mr. Sullins conducts a model stock farm, having herds of pure bred Shorthorn cattle, Chester white hogs and flocks of Plymouth Rock chickens.

GEORGE B. HAWTHORNE, one of the outstanding stock raisers of Tippecanoe County, whose home is in Jackson Township, was born in that township in 1852. His long life of fore-score years has been notable in experience and in accumulated benefits to his family, his friends and his community.

Mr. Hawthorne's parents were John Hawthorne and Jane Byrnes. They were married in County Cavan, Ireland, in 1850 and came to America on their wedding trip. When they arrived in Lafayette, Indiana, they were undecided as to their exact location. A Methodist minister brought them in contact with a: prominent pioneer of Tippecanoe County, Jesse Meharry, who persuaded them to go home with him, promising Mrs. Jane Hawthorne work in his home while John Hawthorne hired out to his brother, Thomas Meharry. This was the beginning of the friendship between the Hawthorne and Meharry families which has subsequently been given additional bonds by marriage and other ties. Mr. George B. Hawthorne has always affectionately referred to Jesse Mehary as "Uncle Jesse." John Hawthorne by his industry had accumulated some capital with a view to becoming an independent farmer. However, a tragic accident intervened before he was able to realize his ambition. While driving a cow which he had recently purchased the animal broke away and started back home. In endeavoring to overtake and turn the cow back John Hawthorne's horse tripped over the cow and turned a somersault. He was thrown off and never regained consciousness. He died early on the morning of September 22, 1854.

"Uncle Jesse" became the administrator of John Hawthorne's estate. John Hawthorne had accumulated $1200. With this money "Uncle Jesse" bought eighty acres of land adjoining G. N. Meharry's farm, and he continued to superintend Mrs. Jane Hawthorne's business for several years. In 1862 Mrs. Jane Hawthorne was married to Henry Mitchell. She died May 25, 1864. She left two sons, George B., who was two and a half years old and Jesse, who was only six months of age. After the death of their mother these boys consented to remain with their mother's eighty acres. Thus George B. they should help him pay for the farm he bought in Warren County, Indiana, and on reaching their majority they would be deeded their mother's eighty aces. Thus George B. Hawthorne on reaching his majority had forty acres of land as his capital.

Mr. George B. Hawthorne was educated in the old Shawnee Academy and also attended DePauw University. On July 23, 1873, on reaching his twenty-first birthday, he went to live with his "Uncle Jesse" for whom he worked during the summer months at nineteen dollars a month. During the winter he attended the Shawnee Academy and the college at Greencastle and in 1877 he accepted the offer to teach in the Jackson Township school. On August 24, 1879, he married Lettie Mary Meharry. After his marriage he taught in the Shawnee Academy and at the end of the school year began housekeeping on the George E. Meharry farm. In the fall of 1880 "Uncle Jesse" insisted that George B. Hawthorne and his brother Jesse should buy the Meharry farm, which they did, paying the three thousand dollars which they had received for their own eighty acres. "Uncle Jesse" Meharry died in 1881, and out of gratitude for the kindness the brothers had shown him in nursing him through his last illness he remitted part of the purchase price. Thus for fully half a century Mr. George B. Hawthorne has been established in the community where he still resides. He has enjoyed a great success as a stock raiser, specializing in Belgian horses, Aberdeen-Angus cattle, Hampshire hogs, Shropshire sheep and Plymouth Rock chickens.

Mr. Hawthorne is a member of the Knights of Pythias Lodge at New Richmond, the Horse Thief Protective Association, and has long been prominent in the Methodist Episcopal Church, serving as superintendent of the Sunday School since 1878 and also as teacher of the Bible Class. He is a Republican and served as ditch commissioner and as township trustee.

Mr. and Mrs. Hawthorne had a family of six children. Lee B. married Mary Rickett and has a daughter, Mary L., who is the wife of Richard Nelson, and they have one son, Richard Nelson II. Ferd M. Hawthorne married Elsie Wallace and has a daughter, Elizabeth. Glenn I. Hawthorne married Grace Wilson and has a daughter, Maxine. David Earl Hawthorne, who was with the Medical Corps during the World War, married Lillian Lee. Elma F. Hawthorne, now deceased, was a graduate of DePauw University. The daughter Jessie A., also deceased, had completed a high school education.
