ARTHUR L. HOOVER.
When the final records of the Prohibition battle in Erie
County are written there will be no name more prominent than
that of Hoover. Arthur L. Hoover was
born Nov. 23, 1871 at Monroeville, Ohio. He is the son
of Isaac W. Hoover and Hannah Hoover.
He was educated at Western Reserve Normal School and the
Sandusky Business College. He says he grew into the
business of manufacturing. He has never held office
except to be a member of the Milan School Board. He is
a director of The Citizens National Bank of Norwalk and The
Farmers & Citizen Banking Company of Milan. He belongs
to the various Masonic bodies and The Methodist Episcopal
Church of Milan. He has been twice married - first on
October 12th, 1898 to Harriet Wolverton the
daughter of Edson Wolverton and after her
death, on April 9th, 1921, he was married to his present
wife Betsey Mary Kelley the daughter of
F. A. Kelley. He is the father of two
children Margaret Fay and Mary Jane.
The creditable record of his business enterprise would
require a large space to tell. But his most creditable
achievement has been his wish to make the world better
because he has lived in it, and to show that his Religion
has gone with him seven days a week, and sometimes even to
the ballot box. His part in the Prohibition conflict
will be a heritage of which his children may well be very
proud.
