    JOHN RINGLE, who since March, 1900, has lived retired in Cambridge,was for many years actively and successfully identified with theagricultural interests of Henry County. His birth occurred inMinersville, Pennsylvania, on the 21st of May, 1841, his parents beingJoseph and Mary Ann (Whitesell) Ringle, likewise natives of theKeystone state. The paternal grandfather, Mathias Ringle, was aRevolutionary soldier and took up his abode in Westmoreland county,Pennsylvania, where his son Joseph was born. The mother of JosephRingle bore the name of Mary Ann Clawson and lived to an advanced age. Mathias Ringle, who was twice married and reared a family oftwenty-one children, passed away when sixty-seven years of age.Jonathan Whitesell, the maternal grandfather of our subject, was anative of Pennsylvania and followed general agricultural pursuitsthroughout his active business career. He and his wife died in thatstate when well advanced in years. They had five children. (Paragraphon Joseph Ringle is in his notes.) ..........
    John Ringle, who obtained his education in the district schools, was alad of sixteen years when he came with his parents to Henry County,Illinois, and grew to manhood on his father's farm in Osco township.On the 10th of September, 1861, he enlisted as a private in Company C,Ninth Illinois Cavalry, with which he served for a little more thanthree years. He participated in the battles of Tupelo, Franklin andNashville and also took part in numerous skirmishes, ever proving amost brave and loyal soldier. When hostilities had ceased he returnedto Henry County and engaged in farming for two years, on theexpiration of which period he removed to Caldwell County, Missouri,where he was identified with agricultural pursuits for four years. Atthe end of that time he returned to Henry County and purchased apartly improved farm of one hundred and fifty acres in Osco Township,on which he made his home until the Spring of 1883. After disposingof that property he bought a tract of land of one hundred andseventeen acres lying a mile North of Cambridge and successfullycontinued its cultivation and improvement until March, 1900, when hetook up his abode in Cambridge, where he has since lived retired inthe enjoyment of the fruits of his former toil.
    On the 28th of February, 1867, Mr. Ringle was joined in wedlock toMiss Mary Humphrey, who was born in New York City on the 31st ofMarch, 1844, her parents being Nicholas and Sophia (Van Allan)Humphrey, both natives of Canada. The father was of French parentageand the mother came of German lineage. Of their family of tenchildren, seven lived to attain years of maturity and two stillsurvive, namely: Mrs. J.M. Loomis, of Missouri; and Mrs. John Ringle. Nicholas Humphrey passed away in New York City in 1862, at thevenerable age of ninety-eight years, and the demise of his wifeoccurred in the year 1847. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Ringle have been bornthree daughters, as follows: Annie L., who is now the wife of DanielConneghy, by whom she has three children--Ora, Clayton and Lela; IdaA., who is the wife of Charles C. Curtis and has four children--Delia,Mabel, John and Chester; and Kate L., who gave her hand in marriage toThomas M. Neville and has two children--Gladys and Mildred.
    Politically Mr. Ringle is a stalwart advocate of the republican party. He still maintains pleasant relations with his old army comradesthrough his membership in the G.A.R., and while in the servicebelonged to the Union League. His wife is a faithful and exemplarymember of the Congregational church. He has long resided in thiscounty and, owing to his upright and honorable career, enjoys inunqualified measure the confidence and esteem of all who know him."[Transcribed 14 July 2006, SLJuhl, compiler]
