CHARLES PARK
was born in Tiffin, Seneca county, Ohio, Oct. 7, 1857, one of two sons
of Peter and Sarah (Hemming) Park. Peter Park was
born in Tiffin and lived there most of his life. He learned the
tailor’s trade and worked at it in his younger days. In 1849 he
went to California in quest of gold and met with some success there.
He was employed in the west for a time in some civil engineering
enterprises. At the tender age of five years Charles L. Park became a member of the family of Jacob and Sarah Flack, who reared him from that time and sent him to the district school, where he obtained a practical education. When he was twenty-one he began farming on shares. In 1883 he married Miss Eda E. Harrison, daughter of John Harrison and a native of Sandusky county, Ohio. They had two sons and a daughter. Clarence and Ralph are farming the Park homestead. Florence is a member of her father’s household. All three are well educated. Clarence and Florence have passed the Boxwell examination and Florence is now attending the high school at Fostoria. Mr. and Mrs. Park are members of the Evangelical church of Liberty township. He is a layman of the church and has been Sunday school superintendent twenty-two years. His sons are members of Kansas Lodge, No. 183, Knights of Pythias, of which Ralph is a past chancellor. In politics Mr. Park is a Republican, devoted to the good work of that party in pushing our country forward to a grand destiny. He has filled the office of assessor and served as a member of the board of education of his township. He has been for nine years treasurer of the Seneca County Sunday School Association. He and his son Ralph are stockholders and he is a director in the Bettsville Banking Company. His farm consists of one hundred and seventy acres in sections 19 and 20, Liberty township.
