J. E. Harter
J. E. Harter, who is successfully engaged in the livery business in Bellville, was born in Monroe township, Richland county, Ohio, January 19, 1861, his parents being Emanual and Elizabeth ( Ridenour) Harter. The paternal grandfather had come from Pennsylvania. The father of our subject was likewise a native of Monroe township , Richland county, and followed agricultal pursuits throughout his active business career, passing away in 1900.
His wife was called to her final rest nineteen years ago. Unto this worthy couple were born ten children, namely: Martha, the wife of Henderson Fleming a farmer of Worthington township; Alma, the wife of George Mock, also of Worthington township; Minnie, the wife of Sheridan Hoover, who resides in Mansfield; Charles, an oil man of Wood county, Ohio; Oscar who is engaged in the oil business in Hancock county; Verda, the wife of Charles Dill, of Worthington township; and Anna, the wife of Ora Holland, of Jefferson township.
J.E. Harter acquired his education in the schools of Bellville and remained under the parental roof untill he had attained the age of twenty-five years. He then followed farming in Jefferson township for two years and on the expiration of that period took up his abode in Bellville, where he has since resided. He is now the oldest liveryman in the city, having been engaged in this line of activity for the past eleven years, and has gained a gratifying and well merited measure of prosperity.
In 1886 Mr Harter was united in marriage to Miss Matilda Mowrey, of Jefferson township, by whom he has four children: Earl and Florence, who are at home; Don, who passed away in 1906; and Dale, also at home.
In his politcal views Mr. Harter is a stalwart republican and has served as constable for ten
years, being still the the incumbent in that position. His religous faith is indicated by his member-
ship in the Lutheran church and fraternally he is connected with Knights of Pythias Lodge, No. 382. Having spent his entire life in this county, he is well and favorable known as substantial and
enterprising business man and upright citizen.
