COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD. Page 410
T. E. ROYER, one of the most extensive land owners of Miles township. Centre county, is a veteran soldier whose gallant service in the war of the Rebellion won him lasting honor. Born September 17, 1840, he was in the full flush of manhood when, on August 25, 1862, he offered himself in his country's cause as a private in Company A, 148th P. V. L, which was recruited at Rebersburg. His first battle was at Chancellorsville, and he took part in the engagements at Mine Run, Gettysburg, Bristol Station, Auburn Mills, and all others of his regiment until, during the fierce charge made by the 148th at Spottsylvania Court House, he was disabled for such work as the members of that famous regiment were usually assigned to. The thumb and third finger of his right hand were shot away, but as soon as his wounds were healed Mr. Royer joined the Convalescent Corps, 51st Company, and remained on duty until mustered out with the rank of corporal August 25, 1865, when he returned to Brush Valley.
The Royer family were among the early settlers of Berks county, Penn., but have long been identified with Brush Valley, Christopher Royer, our subject's grandfather, having settled there in 1807. He was born June 19, 1768, and died October 16, 1849. The mill north of Rockville was built by him, and he owned a large tract of land in that vicinity. In addition to his farm work he carried on a distillery. His children were Daniel, Henry, Amos, Jefferson, Joel, Catharine, Elizabeth, Sarah and Barbara.
Henry Royer, our subject's father, was born in Snyder county (then Union county), near Middleburg, and was next to the youngest of the sons. He was a boy in his "teens" when his father came to Brush Valley, and his schooling was such as the times afforded, but his good sense and judgment made up in a large measure for lack of training. He was married in Brush Valley, when a young man, to Susan Wolfe, daughter of George 'Wolfe, and a native of Haines township. Centre county. He then located near Rockville on one of his father's farms, and followed agriculture during his active life, acquiring a fair competence, although he only lived to the age of forty-one years. He died in Sugar Valley, and his wife, who passed away before him at the age of thirty-eight, died in Brush Valley, both being buried at Rebersburg. He was a Whig, later a Republican, and was a stanch supporter of the principles of the party. In religious work he was active as a member of the Reformed Church, and he always showed hearty sympathy with any worthy improvement.
He had nine children, namely:
Joseph, who died at Howard, Centre county, was a prominent merchant and grain dealer;
T. E. is mentioned more fully below; Frank, a lumberman, resides at Loganton, Penn;
Henry G. is a resident of Johnstown, Penn. G. Scott, of Easton, is a rail- road conductor;
Annie married David Guswite, of Greene township, Clinton Co., Penn.;
Abigail married Thomas Brungart, of Sugar Valley;
Rachel is now Mrs. Andrew Ocker, of Madisonburg, and Isabella married J. D. Johnston, of Easton.
T. E. Royer was born September 17, 1840, the family then living near Rebersburg. His first school was at Tylersville, where his parents lived for awhile, and a Mr. Divens was his first teacher. Great improvement in educational facilities has been made since that time, and no one can be more heartily in favor of this progress than Mr. Royer. He certainly deserves credit for his effective use of his opportunities, his studies being pursued until he was himself qualified to teach. After hehad completed the course offered in the country schools, he studied higher branches at Rebersburg under Prof. Magee and Samuel Gramley, and when a young man he taught school in Sugar Valley, but the occupation did not agree with him and he decided to find other employment. As he was but a child when his father died, he made his home with Col. Henry Royer, near Rebersburg, and there became familiar with farm work, and he also learned the carpenter's trade under Jacob Frederick, of Aaronsburg.
In 1868 Mr. Royer married Miss Emma Haines, a native of Brush Valley, and a daughter of Jeremiah and Susan (Brungart) Haines.

Notes:

Son of Henry Smull and his first wife, Elizabeth Royer.

On February 13, 1873, Mr. Smull was married to Miss Harriet Transue, who was born November 4, 1842, in Hublersburg, Penn., the daughter of Peter Transue, a well-known farmer,
and his wife, Elizabeth (Best), both of whom were natives of Northampton county, Penn.

THOMAS J. SMULL, a prominent merchant of Mackeyville, Clinton county, is a man who commands in a remarkable degree the esteem and confidence of his fellow-citizens. His
popularity is based upon an appreciation of his sterling qualities of character, even his political opponents being stanch personal friends. As one evidence of this we may mention the fact that he has held the position of postmaster in his town for more than thirty years through all changes of administration, but other incidents are not wanting as will be seen in the following history.

Mr. Smull was born May 24, 1834, in Rebersburg, the youngest child of Henry Smull and his first wife, Elizabeth Royer, who are mentioned more fully elsewhere. When our subject was
but a few days old his mother died, and he was taken to the home of his grandfather, Christopher Royer, in the vicinity of Rebersburg. He attended school in the latter town, Mr. Mulford and Mr. Burkett being among his first teachers, and although the instruction was decidedly inferior in many respects to that given in the common schools of to-day, he managed to secure the rudiments of a practical education, and a good knowledge of the German language, English not being spoken. He remained in that locality until he was about fifteen years old, when, his grandfather having died, he went to the Nittany Valley to reside with a cousin, Samuel Royer. There he found the English language in common use, and for some time this was a handicap to him in his studies, but after six years' attendance(four months in each year) at the Clinton school he was qualified to teach. While in this school he made a yarn ball which he sold to a play-
mate, now the Rev. Dr. Dornblaser, and in later years, believing that he had driven too hard a bargain, he returned the money with compound interest to the date of payment amounting to more than two dollars. The transaction illustrates well the strict integrity which has characterized his business life. After leaving school he taught successfully for eleven terms, including a term in the " Clinton school," one in Mill Hall, and four in Madisonburg, Centre county. In 1857 he spent a few months near Valley Falls, Kans., and in 1859 he went to Illinois, where he remained a year, during which he taught one term of school in Stephenson county. Before returning home in June, 1860, he spent some time in Ohio and in Philadelphia, where he visited an uncle. He had been reared as a farmer boy, but, having a desire to enter mercantile life, he secured a position as a clerk with Joseph H. Long in a store in Lamar township. Clinton county, on the pike, near the Porter township line. While there he gained a practical insight into the business, and in the spring of 1866 he formed a partnership known as Beck, Smull & Co., and engaged in mercantile business at Hamburg (now Mackeyvillei, Penn., continuing one year. Another firm, which had started at the same time, got tired before the end of the year, and our subject, with F. E. Hays as a partner, secured the store and carried on business there until 1870, when Mr. Smull became the sole owner. He met with success, and in 1874 built a new store house to accommodate his increasing trade, but in 1889 tfiis was destroyed by a flood which carried away everything, causing a loss of $6,000. His safe was not found for more than two j-ears, when it was discovered imbedded in the debris a short distance below Mackeyville. One week before the flood Mr. Smull had drawn his check to pay for a lot of flour, canceling his only indebtedness; but his satisfaction was of brief duration, as one week later he was practically penniless. He soon learned the value of a "good name," his reputation as a straightforward, honest business man bringing its own reward. It so happened that Mr. Smull, who has been an ardent Republican ever since the organization of the party, was in the habit of holding heated discussions on the topics of the day with Mr. Perry W. McDowell, an equally ardent Democrat. These tilts were always friendly, a fact which speaks volumes for the good sense of both the gentlemen, and Mr. McDowell had no sooner learned of Mr. SmuU's misfortune than he determined to show his appreciation of the latter's worth by offering him sufficient ground for a store building. The land was at the opposite end of town from Mr. Smull's former location, and Mr. McDowell had refused numerous propositions from others who wished to buy it for business purposes. In 18S9 Mr. Smull erected a new store and residence upon the site mentioned, and he has since conducted his business there. He was obliged to make "anew start in life," but his credit was good, and he has had no trouble in sustaining an honorable place in business circles. Always jovial, he likes to perpetrate a joke, and can relish a joke from others, and no man in Nittany Valley has more or better friends than "Jeff Smull."

Their last years were spent in Clinton county, and their remains now rest in the cemetery at Mt. Bethel. Mrs. Smull was the fourth daughter and fifth child in a family of eight children, three sons and five daughters. Four children have brightened our subject's home, two of whom died in infancy, (i) Lilly E., born July 22, 1874, lived only eighteen months.
(2) Thomas J., Jr., born September 22, 1875, is a successful teacher, having begun that occupation before he was seventeen years old ; he was married March 28, 1894, to Miss Mary Bennison, daughter of Capt. S. H. Bennison, a leading citizen of Centre county, and granddaughter of P. W. McDowell, and they now reside in Mackeyville. (3) James L. , born June 7, 1879, is also a licensed teacher, and at pres ent resides at home. (4) Martin D., born August 24, 1871, died at the age of ten months.
As Mr. Smull values education highly, he has endeavored to give his sons good opportunities, and they do credit to his efforts. He has always been a leader in his community, being ready to forward any progressive movement, and for six years he served as school director. He was influential in securing the post offlce at Mackeyville, and the citizens evidently consider him the only suitable person to take charge of it. During the Civil war he was a member of the 28th Regiment, Pennsylvania Militia, and for six weeks was engaged in "emergency service."
The family is identified with the Methodist Church, of which Mrs. Smull is an active member. He is a member of the G. A. R.

Our subject has made many original printed speeches, seldom quoting from other speakers,and was always sufficiently humorous to do as the poet said: "Made many laugh that never
laughed before, and those that laughed, laughed the more." His own productions of anecdotes are used, frequently with considerable effect, by younger speakers in the central part of Pennsvlvania.

The Royer family were among the early settlers of Berks county, Penn., but have long been identified with Brush Valley, Christopher Royer, our subject's grandfather, having settled there in 1807. He was born June 19, 1768, and died October 16, 1849. The mill north of Rockville was built by him, and he owned a large tract of land in that vicinity. In addition to his farm work he carried on a distillery. His children were Daniel, Henry, Amos, Jefferson, Joel, Catharine, Elizabeth, Sarah and Barbara.
Henry Royer, our subject's father, was born in Snyder county (then Union county), near Middleburg, and was next to the youngest of the sons. He was a boy in his "teens" when his father came to Brush Valley, and his schooling was such as the times afforded, but his good sense and judgment made up in a large measure for lack of training. He was married in Brush Valley, when a young man, to Susan Wolfe, daughter of George 'Wolfe, and a native of Haines township. Centre county. He then located near Rockville on one of his father's farms, and followed agriculture during his active life, acquiring a fair competence, although he only lived to the age of forty-one years. He died in Sugar Valley, and his wife, who passed away before him at the age of thirty-eight, died in Brush Valley, both being buried at Rebersburg. He was a Whig, later a Republican, and was a stanch supporter of the principles of the party. In religious work he was active as a member of the Reformed Church, and he always showed hearty sympathy with any worthy improvement.
He had nine children, namely:
Joseph, who died at Howard, Centre county, was a prominent merchant and grain dealer;
T. E. is mentioned more fully below; Frank, a lumberman, resides at Loganton, Penn;
Henry G. is a resident of Johnstown, Penn. G. Scott, of Easton, is a rail- road conductor;
Annie married David Guswite, of Greene township, Clinton Co., Penn.;
Abigail married Thomas Brungart, of Sugar Valley;
Rachel is now Mrs. Andrew Ocker, of Madisonburg, and Isabella married J. D. Johnston, of Easton.
T. E. Royer was born September 17, 1840, the family then living near Rebersburg. His first school was at Tylersville, where his parents lived for awhile, and a Mr. Divens was his first teacher. Great improvement in educational facilities has been made since that time, and no one can be more heartily in favor of this progress than Mr. Royer. He certainly deserves credit for his effective use of his opportunities, his studies being pursued until he was himself qualified to teach. After hehad completed the course offered in the country schools, he studied higher branches at Rebersburg under Prof. Magee and Samuel Gramley, and when a young man he taught school in Sugar Valley, but the occupation did not agree with him and he decided to find other employment. As he was but a child when his father died, he made his home with Col. Henry Royer, near Rebersburg, and there became familiar with farm work, and he also learned the carpenter's trade under Jacob Frederick, of Aaronsburg.
In 1868 Mr. Royer married Miss Emma Haines, a native of Brush Valley, and a daughter of Jeremiah and Susan (Brungart) Haines.
Two children bless this union:
Susan M. , now the wife of John Long, of Red Oak, Iowa;
and Harry H., at home.
Mr. Royer has a comfortable home, and believes in taking what pleasure life may afford, but his present prosperity was not gained without hard work and shrewd management. After his marriage he located in the east end of Brush Valley on his father-in-law's farm. Later he removed to Sugar Valley, and rented a farm for three years, and then returned to Brush Valley. The first land he ever owned was eighteen acres at his present home, and by subsequent additions he has acquired about forty- eight acres, of which has been made a fine property. At two different times Mr. Royer has been engaged in mercantile business in Rebersburg, four and one-half years in all, and he formerly worked a little at his trade. He has been very successful in business. He has 563 acres of land in Brush Valley, and is one of the largest land owners in his township. He owns a home in Rebersburg, also several acres of land there, and has a partnership interest in over 235 acres of timber land. While he does no manual labor, the oversight of his property requires much time and attention.
Previous to his enlistment, Mr. Royer's sympathies were with the Democrats owing to the influence of those around him, as he lived in a Democratic community; but after his first fight as a soldier, he became a Republican, and has ever since been a steadfast adherent of that party. He is influential in local affairs, and has been school director and supervisor, although he lives in a strong Democratic locality and is no office seeker. He is noted for his sound judg- ment and common sense, strongly resembling his father in these respects as he does in outward appearance. He and his wife are prominent members of the Lutheran Church, in which he is an elder. He is a liberal contributor to that cause, as well as to any other which seems to him worthy. At the organizaition of W. W. Bierly Post, G. A. R. , at Millheim, he was a charter member, and has been commander of that post. He also belongs to the I. O. O. F. Lodge No. 1031, at Rebersburg.

D. D. ROYER. The fertile farms of Brush Valley, Centre county, have attracted a superior class of agriculturists, men who bring to their work scientific knowledge, and whose progressive ideas are demonstrated in substantial improvements not to be excelled elsewhere. Among the most successful and progressive of these is the subject of this sketch, who resides near Rebersburg.
Mr. Royer is a grandson of Christopher Royer, who settled in Brush Valley in 1807, and a son of Jefferson Royer, a native of Miles township, Centre county, born August 28, 1808, near Rockville. Jefferson Royer became a successful farmer, having been reared to that occupation by his father, who owned a large amount of land, which he cultivated in addition to his work as a miller and distiller. The subscription schools of that day were far from good, and the one south of Rebersburg, at which Jefferson Royer attended as a boy, was no better than others of its class. One teacher named Parkinson had a peculiar and unpleasant little habit of calling his pupils "d----d blockheads." A neighboring barn caught fire one day, and the scholars all ran out without asking permission. When they returned the teacher had disappeared, and he was never heard of afterward.
Jefferson Royer grew to manhood at his father's home, much of his time being spent in driving a team and taking products to market. He and his brother Daniel formed a partnership in farming, and he thus managed to save some money of his own. On November 20, 1834, he was married, in Brush Valley, to Hannah Gramley, a native of Miles township, Centre county, born July 17, 1815, a daughter of George and Polly (Walburn) Gramley. He began housekeeping at the Royer homestead, but later bought a farm in Miles township which he improved and sold. He then rented a farm in Clinton county, and after a time purchased one there, but afterward he bought a new tract of land, heavily timbered, near Zion, Centre county, and lived there fifteen years, improving the place in every way. In 1869 he moved to Brush Valley, where he had bought a farm the year before, and at this place he remained until his retirement from active business, in his sixty-fifth year, when he built a home in Rebersburg in which to spend his declining years. He was fond of home, and, while he had a roving disposition, as shown by his frequent changes, he always wanted his family to accompany him. His wife died May 11, 1890, and he breathed his last November 26, 1895, both being interred at Rebersburg. He was five feet, ten inches in height, well built, and very hardy and robust, retaining his faculties fully up to his death, which occurred when he was aged eighty-seven years. In business he was successful, and his high character won him the esteem of all classes. As a Whig and later as a Republican, he was a regular voter and took keen interest in the success of his party. He served several terms as supervisor in Clinton county. He was also much interested in religious matters, and he and his wife were both members of the Evangelical Association, in which he held various offices, and was a class leader for thirty years.
Jefferson Royer had five children, whose names with dates of birth are as follows: Magdalene, October 13, 1835, died in infancy; Jonathan, October 16, 1836, resides near Zion, Centre county; J. M., February 3, 1830, who served in Company G, 148th P. V. I., during the Civil war, died at the age of forty-seven at St. Louis, Mo., where his home was; he was married. D. D., August 15, 1846, is mentioned more fully below; and Chesty A., July 8, 1850, is now Mrs. Perry Geutzel, of Nittany Valley.
D. D. Royer was born in Clinton county, one mile east of Clintondale,
and attended his first school in Clinton county with Benjamin Winters as teacher. The schools of that time were inferior to those of the present, but such as they were Mr. Royer could not take full advantage of them. For two winters in succession he attended only twenty-three days in each. He was the oldest at home much of the time, and clearing land and other work interfered with his education. His own experience makes him a warm friend of better schools, in which every child may find thorough instruction.
Mr. Royer was always at home except for a day now and then in harvest time when he could earn fifty cents for spending money, and after he came of age he worked for his father for ten years. On June 21, 1877, he was married to Miss Mary A. Roush, who was born in Gregg township, Centre county, February 1855, a daughter of Benjamin and Margaret (Hoy) Roush. Her father, who is a farmer and shoemaker by occupation, lives near Madisonburg, and is a leading citizen of that locality. Three children were born of this union: Edwin L., Kline H. and Anneata H., who are all at home. At his marriage, Mr. Royer located on his father's farm, which he now owns. The farm is a valuable one, comprising 256 acres and including a tenant farm with separate residence and other improvements. In 1892 the farm was divided and new buildings erected by Mr. Royer, which are among the most complete and modern farm structures in Centre county. Mrs. Royer owns a one-half interest in 170 acres in Spring township, Centre county.
Mr. Royer takes great interest in the issues of the day, and in State and National affairs always votes the Republican ticket. He is, however, no office seeker, having always had plenty of his own business to occupy his time. He attends and contributes to the Evangelical Association. He is a member of the Grange, and can always be relied upon to assist in any beneficial movement in his locality.
