WARNER As he journeys down the western slope of life, Mr. William S. Warner is vouchsafed an honored retirement from labor, as the reward of a long, active and useful business career, for through a long period he was identified with the agricultural interests as well as the carpenter's trade in St. Joseph County. He was born in Adams County, Pennsylvania 15 December 1822. His father Michael Warner was also a native of Pennsylvania, and was there married to one of its native daughters Margaret Slabauch, and they became the parents of twelve children, nine sons and three daughters, and two are now deceased. When their son William, who was the sixth child in order of birth, was a lad of eight years the family moved to Ohio, and in Stark County of that state the father passed away in death. It was in the early year of 1854 that William S. Warner came to St. Joseph County, in securing work at the carpenter's trade in South Bend. In 1875 he moved to a farm of one hundred and sixty acres in Penn township, which continued as his home for eleven years, but at the close of the period, in 1886, he sold the farm and came to Mishawaka to resume the carpenter's trade. His enterprise, energy, capable management and honorable dealings through all these years brought him a comfortable competence and in 1903 he laid aside the burdens and cares of a business life to rest in the enjoyment of the reward of his former toil, spending the evening of his life in the pleasant home, 217 East Lawrence Street, Mishawaka. He is the owner of two houses and lots in this city. In Canton, Ohio, on the 2nd of May 1847, Mr. Warner was united in marriage to Barbara Bushong, who was born in Stark County of that State, 23 July 1826, the daughter of John and Barbara (Crishbaum) Bushong, who were farming people. Mrs. Warner died 6 July 1888. Eleven children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Warner namely: Mary Barnhardt, Emeline (deceased), Elizabeth, Margaret (deceased), Milton, Ellen (deceased), William Henry, Edward, Lorenzo, Emilie (deceased) and Schuyler. The Republican Party receives Mr. Warner's hearty support and co-operation, and he is a stanch advocate of all measures to improve and benefit his community. His reputation in business has ever been unassailable, and in all the walks of life, he is found true to duty and to the trusts reposed in him. -------------------- Stark County Ohio Marriages Barbara Bushong to William S.
