Pioneer Families of Cleveland

1819

SCRANTON
Scranton Avenue is one of the few city streets named after pioneers that
has escaped the vandalism of thecouncil that changed nomenclature into
numbers.

Stephen Scranton of Ludlow,Mass., married Asenath Wright, daughter of
Abel and Joshua Wright of New London, Conn. The couple had a family of
eight children, the older of whom were born in Ludlow and Belcherstown,
and the youngest, twin-daughters, Cornelia andHarriet, were born in 1817
near Cooperstown, N. Y.

Stephen Scranton was a skillful worker in steel and iron. He was a man of
unusual ability with an inventive turn of mind. He built works in Otsego
Co., N. Y., for the manufacture of cut nails, the first one of its kind
in the state. He possessed rare energy,and had he lived in this later
day, would have been known as a "captain of industry" from the Atlantic
to the Pacific.

But misfortune overtook him. Hisworks were swept out of existence by
fire again and again. The last time theyburned down, he gave up the
struggle, and with his family removed west, settling in Brighton, Lorain
County.

Eunice Scranton, the oldest child of the family, married Rev. Steven V.
Taylor, LL. D., President of Madison University, N. Y.

Abel Scranton died of consumption in Cleveland in 1828 at the age of 20.

Joel Scranton, the second child of Stephen and Ascenath Scranton, was
born in Belcherstown in 1793. His father's continued misfortunes early
made it imperative for Joel to strike out for himself. He had typical
Yankee shrewdnessto a degree, attributes more suited to mercantile
pursuits than the one with which his boyhood had been familiar.

He was 26 years old when he came to Cleveland in 1819, on a little
schooner laden with leather. He rented a small store at the foot of
Superior Street, and in it stored his cargo. He soon disposedof it, for
it was a commodity much in demand. Of this he had assured himselfon a
former visit, and reconnoiter. To the sale of leather he added that of
dry-goods and groceries, and within a few years was doing a business that
was steady in yearly growth.

He bought a farm of many acres lying between the river and the
amphitheater of hills east and south of it, and since known as "Scranton
Flats." Here he built a commodious brick dwelling, in which he lived and
died. Years ago, some one with a facile pen pictured, most alluringly:

"The old home and orchard at the foot of the hill, the boat swinging by a
chain to a ring in its nose at the shore, the horses and kine pasturing
upon the green meadows of the Cuyahoga, the woods that crowned the
heights, the humble dwellings struggling up the bluffs as if trying to
scale them."

"The flocks ofcheep grazing in the pasture have been succeeded by the
white fleeces of the busy steam, and the rasp of scythes by the roar of a
thousand wheels."

Mr. Scranton sometimes complained whimsically that his big farm and other
extensiveholdings kept him "land poor." Taxes and improvements yearly
growing heavierand currency scarcer.

A Mr. Averill living in the east was his partner in real-estate holdings.
"Scranton & Averill," as the firm was known, ceased at Mr.Scranton's
death. Mr. Averill came on to Cleveland occasionally, but took noactive
part in the business. A son and three daughters inherited the latter's
interest in the firm, and until very recently, if not yet, the heirs have
drawn yearly upon the Cleveland estate.

In the office of T. H. and Edward Bushnell, Society for Savings Building,
hangs a letter written by Joel Scranton toMr. Averill in those early
days of land investment.

Mr. Scranton was very unconventional, independent, and democratic. He had
a keen sense of humor, andany one who could inveigle him into
reminiscence was certain of a rare treat.

In June, 1829, by Rev. Stephen Peet, he was married to Miss Irene P.
Hickox. She was the daughter of David and Phebe Post Hi

463 MARYELIZABETH7 BROMLEY (Isaac6), born Oct. 19, 1822; married
Benjamin Franklin Taylor, Sept. 2, 1839, in Brooklyn, Mich. Benjamin was
a son of Stephen W. Taylor, President
of Madison University, and Eunice Scranton, and was born July 19,1819,
in Lowville, N. Y. She died July 2, 1848, in Chicago, Ill. He died Feb.
24, 1887, in Cleveland, O. Mr. Taylor was an author and writer of
considerable note.

It is said that President Taylor's presence inspired a feeling of awe,
for no one approached him without removing his hat, and all the students
when passing his residence, whether in storm or sunshine, kept their
heads uncovered until the grounds were cleared. He governed his children
and the pupilsunder his care by a word or a look, not by the rod.
Scranton, Pa., was founded by one of Mrs. Taylor's family. Taylor is a
suburb of that town, and Bromleyavenue is one of the city's
thoroughfares.

"Had Benj. F. Taylor been willing to put the requisite labor on his
productions--which breathe the soul of poetry, combining brilliant
imagery with wonderful conceits--his name would rankhigh among the poets
of the age. My acquaintance with Taylor began before hewas associated
with the Journal, when he was teaching school, on La Salle street. I
assisted the boys in stage work for an exhibition that was held in the
saloon building at the close of school; upon which service he placed a
highervalue than he should have done. He and Dr. J. H. Bird were
intimate; the office of the doctor, over J. H. Reed & Co.'s drug store,
being used during one ofthe cholera seasons as a bed-room for the two.
Taylor was very much afraid ofthe epidemic, and frequently ran up to the
doctor's office during the day to consult him upon some imaginary symptom
of the disease, which one of Bird's harmless charcoal and sulphur pills,
aided by faith in the doctor and the vivid imagination of the poet,
invariably relieved. He had many of the characteristics which we are
accustomed to associate with genius, being improvident, procrastinating,
and a brilliant conversationalist. As an instance of his procrastination,
Shurman once told me that he promised the carriers of three papers a New
Year's address, and on the evening of the last day in the year, he had
not written a line. The messengers were frantic, but B. T. smilingly
requested theboys to be seated, and in a few minutes he handed one of
them a stanza with anorder to hurry back and he would have another ready
for him. Then beginning another poem for his nervous news-slinger, he
soon had him rushing to his paperwith a single verse, and thus he wrote
alternately parts of two different poems in his best vein, winding up
with a third for the Journal. He lived a number of years at Winfield, on
the Galena division of the Northwestern, and we frequently sat together
on the cars. Once upon my struggling in with a large turkey, he commenced
decrying the prize fowl of the banquet table, winding up withthe remark
that it owed its reputation exclusively to the herbs and care taken in
its preparation, that without those concomitants it would be no better
than crow. His laugh rang through the car when I replied, I never thought
he had gone so far into politics as to be obliged to ascertain the flavor
of crow.

"It was a remark of his that he could always determine a man's financial
standing by the train he took. If his income depended on his own
exertions he took the eight o'clock; if upon the labor of others, the ten
thirty; if independent of both, the afternoon train; while if quite
wealthy, he waited till the next day." (Reminiscences of Early Chicago,
