Wesley was 14 years of age when his parents came to Warren County; here he was raised and grew to manhood; was married and became the father of six children; three now survive—Hannah, now Mrs. Charles Janney; Ner, and Prudence, now Mrs. Amos Sides. Mr. Haines was raised to farm labor, and, after his father's death, took the old home place, where he resided till after the death of his wife in the summer of 1848, when he moved to Waynesville and resided six years; was again married to Mrs. Prudence Haines, a daughter of Isaac Engle; thence he located again on the farm, where he resided a few years, and again returned to Waynesville, where he has since resided; his second wife died in the summer of 1872. Mr. Haines is now 75 years of age; he commenced in life with but limited means, and, by his own labor and industry has accumulated a good competency; has never held or desired office, but has devoted himself industriously to his business interests, and has been well rewarded for his labors. Ner, the subject of this sketch, was raised to farm labor; was married, April 5,1860, to Sarah, daughter of Samuel and Mary Sides, natives of Lancaster Co., Penn.; Sarah was born May 6, 1842; their issue has been six children; five now survive—Wesley, born Jan. 4, 1861; Daniel Albert, born July 28, 1863; Samuel K., Nov. 22, 1869; Elsworth, Oct. 21, 1871; and Ner W., born Feb. 15, 1874. Mr. Haines located upon the old home place of his father's, where he has since resided. This place has been in the possession of the Haines family since their first location here—a period of sixty-six years. |
