(or) 194. LEMUEL D. HORNER, a prosperous farmer and market-gardener a short distance from the village of Dudley, in the town of Stockton, Camden County, N.J., was born on a farm at North Cramer Hill, near by, on December 20, 1831. His father, WILLIAM HORNER, was born near Bethel and his mother, whose maiden name was EUNICE FISH, was a native of Delair, in the same county of Camden. His paternal grandfather, MERRITT HORNER, was born in this vicinity. He owned a large tract of land a short distance from Merchantville, where he resided up to his death, living to be over fourscore years of age. He had several children. WILLIAM HORNER passed the early years of his life on his father's farm; and, when the time came for him to establish a home of his own, he rented a farm, which he carried on until able to purchase. He then bought a farm at North Cramer Hill, where the thirty remaining years of his life were spent. He died at seventy-two, a man of strict integrity and highly respected. His wife EUNICE was a daughter of WILLIAM FISH, a successful farmer. She bore her husband seven children. The five now living are: MAHLON F.; LEMUEL; EUNICE, wife of JOHN MORGAN; MARY, wife of SAMUEL SLIM; and ELIZABETH, wife of ALEXANDER ROSS. MRS. EUNICE HORNER lived to be seventy-seven years of age. She was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and her husband belonged to the Society of Friends. LEMUEL D. HORNER received a common school education, the school which he attended being conducted on the pay system the charge for each child being three cents per day. He remained with his parents until his father's death, when he came into possession of the farm, which he conducted until 1887. He then sold it to ALFRED CRAMER, though whose enterprise a village has been built upon it, and purchased his present place at 3519 Westfield Street, a garden farm of about fifty acres. MR. HORNER is the oldest market-gardener in this locality. He ships his produce directly to Philadelphia.
