JACOB LIVAR, farmer; P. O. Clintonville.  In 1843, John W. Livar, an
orphan boy, without friends or education came from Hardy County, Va.,
and began to work for Isaac Van Meter of Clark County.  By industry
and perseverance he obtained a start in life, and with the continued
exercise of those good qualities, he has amassed a large fortune.  Mr.
Livar's first wife was a Tevaugh, and from that union sprung Jacob
Livar, who was born February 5th, 1846.  Receiving a common English
education, he began life as a farmer and stock-trader, which he has
followed with varied success ever since.  He now owns 150 acres of land
within a mile of Clintonville.  He was married Dec. 20, 1870, to Miss
Lizzie Guthrie, of Sumner County, Tenn.  They have five children:
John G., Anna May, Kate C., Ada C., and Nettie.  Mrs. Livar is a
member of the distinguished Guthrie family, and is an accomplished
lady.  She belongs to the Presbyterian communion.  Mr. Livar is a
Democrat in politics.
