(Witness) Bio

JAMES W. HURST, grain merchant, farmer, and stock raiser, at Macy, is a native of Piqua County, Ohio, and was born September 28, 1839. He was the youngest son born to William and Sarah (Alkire) Hurst, the former a native of Maryland, of English descent, and the latter a native of Kentucky, of German descent. At the tender age of two years James was left without a father, and in 1845 his widowed mother came with her children to this county, and located, first, at Peru. In the spring of 1846 the family located upon a farm in Richland Township. A year later they located in Allen Township, where the mother had pre-empted an eighty acres tract of land. There James spent his early life working upon the farm. During the winter of 1859-60 he taught school. At the age of twenty-three he engaged in the mercantile business in Chili. A few months later he located upon a farm in Allen Township, where he engaged in agricultural pursuits until the fall of 1867, at which time he located in Macy and erected the first business house in the town. In that building he placed a stock of goods, and during the ten years that followed his attention was simultaneously given to merchandising, the buying and selling of grain and to farming. Since 1877 his attention has been divided between the last two. He was married to Romannia C Hoover, April 12, 1876. Their marriage has resulted in the birth of eight children. They are Earl J., Eva M., Scott J., Herd J., an infant daughter, and three children that died in infancy unnamed. Mr. and Mrs. Hurst are members of the Christian Church. The former is a member of the F. & A.M. lodge at Macy, which he served as its First Master. Politically he is a Republican. He was elected to the office of County Commissioner in 1878, and served one term. In that capacity he discharged his duties with credit to himself and satisfaction to his constituents. In the fall of 1884 he was the candidate of his party for State Representative and succeeded in reducing an opposing majority from 340 to 229. He is an industrious and successful business man and a prominent and influential citizen. From History of Miami County, Published in 1887 by Brant and Fuller in Chicago - Allen Township.

Laura Belle's obituary was published in the Rochester Sentinel on 9 October 1928:

Mrs. Laura Belle WAISNER, aged 68, died at four o’clock Monday afternoon at the home of her sister, Miss Della Steinhiser, near Leiters Ford. Death was due to complications of diseases from which she had suffered for the past nine days. The deceased [Laura Belle STEINHISER] was born in Fulton County, February 13, 1860 the daughter of Christopher and Harriett STEINHISER. Upon reaching womanhood she married to Garland HOOVER, who died several years later. On Easter Sunday in 1910 she was married Mr. WAISNER, also deceased. For 15 years she lived in Manchester, Tenn., returning to Leiters Ford just six months ago. For many years she was a member of the Maccabee Lodge but recently had transferred her membership to the Rochester Chapter. Surviving are two children, T. C. HOOVER, of Los Angeles, California, and Mrs. J. A. WILSON, of Tipton; four sisters, Miss Della STEINHISER, Mrs. Elizabeth ZELLERS, Mrs. Anna REICHARD and Mrs. Amanda LUCAS.

Monday, July 15 1929 A suit was filed in the circuit court this morning to contest the will of Mrs. Laura Belle WAISNER of Kewanna who died on October 8, 1928. The suit was filed by Mrs. Thadious C. HOOVER of Kokomo and Mrs. Edna WILSON of Kewanna against Mrs. Della STEINHISER of Kewanna executrix of the estate of the deceased. All of the principals in the suit are sisters. The plaintiffs allege that a certain purported will drawn on September 12, 1928 and filed for probate here on October 9, 1928 which will is supposed to be that of their mother which excludes them from sharing in her $7,000 estate is not a true one. The plaintiffs say that the will was obtained from their mother when she was of unsound mind, that it was unduly executed, was executed under duress and that it was obtained by fraud.⁴
