FRANK C. McCONNELL - As senior
member of the firm of McConnell & Christianan,
proprietors of the Colonial Hotel at Warren, Frank C. McConnell
is widely and favorably known to the traveling public as a most
genial and accommodating host, and a gentleman of enterprise and
good judgment. He has spent his entire life in Warren, his
birth occurring here Nov. 24th, 1858. His father, James
McConnell, Jr., a native of Washington county, Pennsylvania,
came with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James McConnell, Sr., to
Ohio in pioneer days, locating in Weathersfield township, Trumbull
county.
Brought up in Weathersfield township, James
McConnell, Jr., began his active career as a shoe manufacturer,
and was in business in Warren until burned out by the memorable fire
of 1860. He subsequently opened a restaurant and was connected
with its management until about two years before his death, which
occurred when he was eighty-seven years of age. He was a
life-long Republican in politics, and an active member of the
Presbyterian church. He married Sarah S. McComb, who,
like the McConnells, was of Scotch ancestry. She was
born in that part of Trumbull county now included within the limits
of Mahoning county, on the farm which her father reclaimed from its
original wildness. She died at the age of seventy-nine years.
Of the eight children born of their union three are dead, John,
and two who died in infancy. Five are living, as follows:
Maria; William J., of Warren; Hattie; Frank
C., of this sketch; and Harry R., of Warren.
Brought up and educated in Warren, Frank C.
McConnell began as soon as old enough to assist his father in
the restaurant, and soon became familiar with the details connected
with the business, to which he succeeded on the death of his father,
and which he still continues, having been in the same business and
location since 1860. On Feb. 25, 1908, in company with
William L. Christianan, he bought the Elliott Hotel, in Warren,
remodeled and refurnished it, changed its name to the Colonial
Hotel, and has since managed it most successfully, it being one of
the best kept and most popular public inns of the county, the
proprietors sparing neither time nor expense in their efforts to
please their many guests.
In 1905 Mr. McConnell married Jennie
Bowen, who was born in Wales and reared in Mercer county,
Pennsylvania, being a daughter of Evan Llewellyn.
Politically Mr. McConnell is a straightforward
Republican, and fraternally he belongs to Warren Lodge Xo. 295, B.
P. O. E., and to the Royal Arcanum.

ALLISON
H. MACKEY, whose farm home is situated within the bounds of
Vienna township, Trumbull county, was born Feb. 18, 1833, on the
farm upon which he now resides, a son of Andrew and Jane (Scott)
Mackey. Of his parentage it may be said that his father
was born in Bucks county, Pennsylvania, about 1779, and the mother
was born in Chester county, of that state, in 1792. The
grandparents, both paternal and maternal, came from Ireland and
first settled in Pennsylvania, but subsequently went to Ohio in
1805. The grandfather Andrew, located about one mile
south from Vienna in 1810. Later he sold and settled on the
farm now occupied by Allison H. The grandfather died
here, Oct. 20, 1820, and the grandmother in September, 1817.
Andrew, the father, continued to live on the home farm until
his death. His farm consisted of eighty6 acres as a homestead,
originally, but to which he added until at his death he owned three
hundred acres. The year of his death was 1859, and his wife
died in 1875. This couple had seven children; Allison H.,
of this notice, being the youngest of the family.
Mr. Mackey is unmarried and his niece (a
daughter of his brother James), is a trained nurse and looks
after the household duties for him, as he spends his winters in the
south and west, in Colorado, Idaho and California. In
political views, Mr. Mackey is in accord with the teachings
of the Republican party, but has never aspired to office.
Mr. Mackey remained with his parents until their death, since
which time he has occupied the old homestead, to which he has added
some of the improvements, the major part, however, were made by his
father. The place is because of the perpetual annoyance of
securing proper help to operate the place. At one time Mr.
Mackey raised much corn and wheat on his farm.

S. Q. MARCH,
president of The Hubbard Banking Company, forms the subject of this
narrative. Mr. March was a native of Virginia, born in
Berkley county, in 1803, and came to Ohio with his father, Henry
March, in 1808. The family located in Columbiana county,
where the father of S. Q. March was married. The
grandfather, Henry, died in the military service during the
war of 1812. His father was born in Montgomery county,
Pennsylvania, and about the time of the British occupancy, the
family migrated to Virginia.
Philip March, the father of S. Q., was
reared and educated in Columbiana county, Ohio, and followed farming
and merchandising. He died in Columbiana county in 1866.
The mother of him for whom this sketch is especially compiled was
Sarah Gillmer, a native of Allegheny county, Pennsylvania, where
she lived until about fourteen years of age. Her parents died
when she was young and she made her home with an older brother.
She died in 1859, aged fifty-five years. The parents of Mr.
March had six sons and two daughters who reached maturity, only
three of whom survive: S. Q., John H., and D. W.
March.
S. Q. March is the sixth child in his parents'
family and the fifth son. He was reared in his native county
and attended school there. He also attended the old Mahoning
Academy, at Canfield, and Elder's Ridge Academy, at Eldersridge,
Indiana county, Pennsylvania. For several years he was engaged
in teaching school and in 1867 came to Hubbard, Ohio, where he
engaged in the hardware business, being a partner of W. C. and T.
A. Winfield, continuing about two years, when he dissolved his
relation with that firm and engaged in the lumber business.
Later, he was made the principal of the Hubbard schools. He
then followed the hardware business three years longer and in 1876
became secretary of the Hubbard Savings Bank. In 1878 the
institution became a national bank, and so continued until 1886,
during which period Mr. March was its secretary and later its
cashier. In 1886 the banks was reorganized and became known as
the Hubbard Banking Company, with Mr. March as its cashier.
In 1903 he was made its president, which position he still retains.
He has been the active head of the concern for about twenty years.
The capital stock is $50,000 and in institution does a general
banking business and has a surplus of $35,000, with deposits
amounting to $300,000.
Politically, Mr. March is an independent
Democrat. He has been a member of the school board for about
fifteen years and on the village council about the same length of
time. He being highly competent, has held various other local
offices, including township clerk, treasurer, trustee and realty
assessor. He is a member of the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows, having been connected with this society for more than
thirty years. He is a member of the Presbyterian church, in
which he was reared and has been an elder in this church for the
last ten years. That he is well and favorably known in
Trumbull county, almost goes without saying.
Mr. March was happily united in marriage, in the
month of February, 171, to Caroline M. Jackson, who died in
1874, and in 1879 he married Amy L. Appelgate, who still
survives. There has been no issue by either marriage.

JOHN W.
MASTERS, of Warren, pioneer grocer of Trumbull county, is
president of the Masters Brothers Company, and is also at the head
of the Trumbull Loan Company. More, he is a brave old soldier,
carrying two wounds in his body as a tribute to his patriotism and
his fidelity to the Union cause. Whether in the field of
business, or the field of battle, he has always been well to the
front, and has cheerfully carried his full share of all the burdens
of life, either private or those pertaining to his community.
Mr. Masters is a native of Somersetshire,
England, born on the 3rd of November, 1841, and in 1856 he
accompanied the family to the United States, the homestead being at
once fixed in the woods along the River road, Warren township.
In a little log house built in that locality the youth of fifteen
continued his education begun in England by attending the nearest
district school, assisting also in all the work attaching to the
founding of a pioneer's home. In 1861, before he had reached
the age of twenty, he enlisted in Company C, Nineteenth Ohio
Volunteer Infantry, and served for three years in the terrible
battles and campaigns of the southwest. At the battle of
Shiloh he received a gunshot wound in the right leg, was sent to the
Louisville hospital and thence to his Ohio home, but after a
furlough of two weeks he returned to the ranks of his company.
At Chickamauga a bullet from a Confederate gun penetrated his right
hip, and the injury sent him to the military hospital at Nashville,
Tennessee, but he returned to the field and finished his three
years' term of enlistment.
Returning to Warren the young soldier resumed the
activities of civil life with characteristic industry and fidelity,
and in 1868 formed a partnership with Mr. Nettlefield in the
grocery business. After about six months this association was
concluded by Mr. Masters' purchase of his partner's interest
and the formation of business relations with his brother, E. H.
Masters, under the name of Masters Brothers. The
enterprise was conducted and steadily developed under that style
until 1902, when the business was incorporated under its present
name, with John W. Masters as president. He was also
one of the organizers of the Trumbull Loan Company, of which he has
been president since its founding, and he is one of the directors of
the Union National Bank of Warren. Mr. Masters joined
the Grand Army of the Republic at an early period of its history and
was one of the charter members of the Bell-Harmon Post No. 36, of
Warren. He served as its treasurer for a long time, was its
quartermaster and, in fact, has filled most of its offices.
Mr. Masters has also been connected with the I. O. O. F. since
1869. He is a life-long Republican and was treasurer of Warren
township for a quarter of a century. As an active and faithful
Methodist, he has long been officially identified with the local
church, and his religion is carried into all the practical affairs
of his life.
In 1868 Mr. Masters wedded Miss Laura T.
Wilson, daughter of James and Nancy Wilson, of Warren
township, and five of the six children born to them are still
living, viz.: Welty J., now secretary and treasurer of
the Warren Hardware Company; Fred; Charles C., who is in
business with his father, and Mary E. and Jessie Masters,
who are living at home. Paul died when two years of
age. The family is considered one of the most substantial and
honorable in Trumbull county and John W. has the credit of
being its most prominent representative. His property includes
his residence and two business blocks on Main street, Warren; he is
a stockholder in other institutions than those mentioned, and,
although his worldly station is one of decided prosperity he has
reached his position by many years of industry, unrelaxing effort
and honorable methods, ably conceived and perseveringly executed.

ALMON GREENE McCORKLE, who
has been identified with the best interests of Trumbull county, is a
native of Lordstown township, Trumbull county, Ohio, where he was
born Feb. 1, 1842. He is a son of Archibald
McCorkle, born Mar. 9, 1809, at Boardman, Mahoning county,
Ohio. In 1799, three brothers, William, John and
Archibald McCorkle, came from Ireland to the United States.
One settled in Niagara, where his descendants have been prominent in
public affairs. John McCorkle, grandfather of Almon G.,
and the brother Archibald, stopped a short time
near Philadelphia, then went on to Ohio, settling near the present
site of Youngstown, where both purchased timber lands from which
they hewed out good farms for themselves. The descendants of
these two brothers are very numerous and can be easily found in many
states and territories. The descendants of these two brothers
are very numerous and can be easily found in many states and
territories. The maiden name of the grandmother was
Isabella Montgomery, a native of Ireland, who became the
mother of children, as follows: William, Margaret,
Sarah, Deborah, Archibald, John, Andrew and James.
ARCHIBALD McCORKLE was reared to agricultural pursuits.
He came to Lordstown township directly after his marriage and bought
a tract of timber land, a half mile east of the center. He
there provided himself and family with a rude log house in which
Almon G. was born. This was long before there
were any railroads or carriage drives in the country. There
were few, if any, stores, and the few hardy settlers subsisted upon
what the native soil afforded, together with such game as the man of
the house might kill with his trusty rifle. The good housewife
employed much of her time at carding, spinning and weaving cloth,
which was known as "home-spun," for the making of the clothing
needed by the family. In later years the father dealt in live
stock in which he was successful and accumulated a sufficient sum to
enable him to purchase more land, until he possessed three hundred
acres, well improved and finely equipped with all necessary
buildings to carry on a farm in that day. There he lived and
labored, dying Mar. 9, 1861, being killed in the born in Austintown
township, Mahoning county, Ohio, Mar. 29, 1814, and who died Oct.
27, 1894. Her father was John Jones.
Mr. and Mrs. Archibald McCorkle were the parents of six
children: Seymour, died aged forty-two years; Martha,
died aged eighteen years of age; Miranda, died aged
twenty-two; Almon G., John Alva and
Samantha J. John Alva studied at Hiram and graduated
from the medical department of the State University at Ann Arbor,
Michigan. He took a post graduate course at Long Island
College, was elected a member of the faculty and is now president of
that college. Almon G. McCorkle
attended the district school and the Lordstown Academy, later
graduating from Duff's Business College of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.
When eighteen years of age he commended teaching school, beginning in
Warren and later teaching in the graded schools of Georgetown and
North Jackson. He then engaged in farming, purchasing a part
of the old home place, and later bought the remainder of it and now
owns two hundred and seventy acres. He has two good sets of
buildings, including the handsome and spacious residence which he
built a few yes since. This house is built in modern style and
provided with many a convenience not hitherto known in farm houses.
In 1886 upon the advice of physicians. McCorkle
went to far away Arizona and there he purchased a ranch and engaged
in cattle raising, subsequently establishing a ranch in Dakota, to
which the younger stock were shipped and there made ready for the
market. This business he successfully carried on several
years. When he recovered his health he sold his ranch property
and returned to his old home in Ohio, where he now resides,
practically a retired man. Nov. 15,
1865, he was married to Martha M. Leitch, a native
of Ireland, born in county Donegal, a daughter of
Robert and Elizabeth Leitch. The children
born to Mr. and Mrs. McCorkle are as follows:
Lydia, born Jan. 28, 1867, married John M. Metts

now a student at Cornell University. Mr. and Mrs.
McCorkle, with their family, are members of the Christian
church. Politically, he is a supporter of the Democratic
party, having cast his first vote for Gen. George B.
McClellan for president, when he ran against Mr.
Lincoln in 1864.
