  • THOMAS M. HART has been a resident of Richland county since early childhood, and his well-known capabilities have been recognized by his fellow-men in the election to various local positions of trust, among which is city assessor, an office which he now holds. Mr. Hart was born on April 12, 1851, in Columbiana county, O., and is the eldest son of John Hart, one of the pioneer settlers in the town of Marshall. John Hart was one of the pioneers and representative men of Richland county, and he also claimed Ohio as the place of his nativity, having been born in Columbiana county, that state, on Mar. 17, 1826. He was a son of John Hart, Sr., who came from New York and settled in Ohio in the early part of the nineteenth century, living the remainder of his days in Columbiana county. The father of the subject of this review spent his childhood and youth in Ohio, his time being occupied in going to school and working upon the farm. He was married in 1844 to Eleanor Marshall, who was also born in Columbiana county, July 2, 1824. The Marshall family came from eastern Pennsylvania, where the older members belonged to that pious religious sect, known as Friends or Quakers. Mr. and Mrs. Hart remained in Ohio until 1854, when they came to Richland county and entered timber land on section 11, town 11, range 1 west, in the present town of Marshall. The first tree cut on the place was for the pioneer log cabin, which was afterward replaced by a neat frame house. Mr. Hart also cleared a large farm and erected a commodious frame barn. There he resided until the time of his death, Apr. 14, 1876, living to see the wilderness in which he settled transformed into a finely improved and cultivated country, with good schools and churches. His wife survived him until April, 1903, when she died at the age of seventy-nine years. This honored couple were the parents of ten children, five of whom are now living, as follows: Maria is the wife of James Truesdale and resides on Fancy creek in Richland county; Thomas M. is he to whom this review is dedicated; Caroline resides in Richland Center; Georgia is the widow of Frank Doudna, deceased; and resides at the old Hart homestead on Fancy creek; and Millard F. is also a resident of the town of Marshall. The father while living had the respect and confidence of his fellow men to a remarkable degree, and his death was a loss not only to his family, but to the community and county in which he lived. Thomas M. Hart was four years old when the family came to Wisconsin, and he was reared in the town of Marshall, receiving his education in the public and select schools, after which he followed teaching for a time. In April, 1874, he came to Richland Center and entered the employ of Norman L. James, with whom he was associated in the capacity of book-keeper until 1900, when, on account of failing health he relinquished the position. He was married on July 31, 1875, to Miss Abbie Draper, daughter of James Draper, an old resident of the town of Sylvan, and to that union one child was born - Myra, who now is the wife of Henry Toms, a jeweler in Richland Center, who is given more extended mention on another page of this publication. The first wife died in June, 1883, and Mr. Hart was again married on Oct. 31, 1884, to Miss Lydia Mooney of the town of Marshall, a daughter of Patrick and Anna (Cassaday) Mooney, both of whom are now deceased. These parents were early settlers of the town of Marshall. Mr. and Mrs. Hart are the parents of three children, viz.: Frank, who holds the responsible position of time-keeper for the Bell Telephone Company at Fond du Lac, Wis; Bernie B., who is an employe in Burnham's drugstore in Richland Center; and Ariel, who is a graduate of the Richland Center high school in the class of 1906. Mr. Hart has served as mayor of Richland Center two terms, and for two terms he also represented the city on the county board of supervisors. In the spring of 1906 he was elected assessor of Richland Center and is now filling that position. He is a Republican in his political inclinations, but reserves the privilege of acting independently when his better judgment dictates such a course.
