ISAAC B. DOUGLASS
was born at Uniontown, Fayette Co., Penn., Feb. 28, 1846, and is a
son of James and Naomi (Brown) Douglass, also natives of
Fayette County, who, in 1862, came to Wayne County, Ohio, and
located on a farm in Sugar Creek Township where the mother died in
1864. The father then married a Miss Rector, and moved
to Missouri, where he died in 1873. Isaac B. Douglass,
whose name heads this biographical memoir, the only one of the
family now living, was reared on a farm and educated in the common
schools. He followed agricultural pursuits for some time, but
for many years has been engaged in the lumber business and operating
a portable saw mill in Sugar Creek Township, Wayne County.
In 1865 he married Miss Susan, daughter of
Alexander and Mary Shanklin who were among the first settlers of
Sugar Creek Township, Wayne Co., Ohio, and to this union have been
born nine children, named as follows: James U., Orpha A.,
Ira AB., Howard, Henry A., Isaac A., Robert M., William W. and
Ora May. Mr. Douglass, politically, is a Democrat, and
is a vigorous and uncompromising exponent of the principles of his
party. He has served as township assessor for four years.
He is now serving his twelfth year as justice of the peace; has been
school director for many years. He is a member of Central
Lodge, No. 212, K. of P., of Orrville, Ohio, and is trustee and
superintendent of the Sabbath-school in the Church of God (Winebrennerian).
