| 48751 | The Story of New Jersey, Volume V Harry T. Robbins - Farmer in several districts of the State successively Harry T. Robbins follows in ancestral occupation, for both his parents and his grandparents in the male line were farmers. At his establishment near Woodstown, he raises a varied crop under intensive farming, and finds time from his agricultural duties to have a word in most public affairs. Mr. Robbins was born at Commissioners Pike, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, on October 16, 1877, son of William and Mary F. (Tolman) Robbins. His paternal grandparents, Van Room and Margaretta (Blackwell) Robbins, natives of Monmouth County, engaged in farming at Swedesboro for many years, the grandfather living there until his death in 1887 in his eighty-fifth year. The next in line, William, moved to Salem County to establish a farm, buying the Charles Clark estate, and developing the property to a high degree of production. His place was especially famous for the fine horses which were raised there, including Goldsmith Volunteer, Yorktown Belle, and Young Volunteer. William and Mary Robbins were the parents of six children: Van Room, William, Alberta, Blanche, Harry T., and Leon. Harry T. Robbins attended the public schools in Salem County, and remained until his twenty-third year upon the family farm at Commissioners Pike. He then farmed on shares for one year, and at the termination of this arrangement, bought the Thomas R. Cole Farm, adjoining the one upon which he had been born and brought up. This farm he has owned and operated successfully ever since. He has one hundred and sixty-five acres, upon which he raises the roughage for his herd of thirty-five graded Holsteins in addition to extensive acreage in tomatoes, white potatoes, corn, and other crops. This farm which he now directs is a worthy successor of those previously held by members of the Robbins family. His work upon it, and his willingness to assume public duties, have made him a prominent member of this community. A Democrat in politics, Mr. Robbins has been a member of the board of education for twenty-three years, and of the election board for only three years less. His opinion is often sought in local affairs, and his support for any program directed to the public welfare is a foregone conclusion. On April 12, 1900, Harry T. Robbins married Jennie R. Bassett of Upper Pittsgrove Township, daughter of Benjamin and Mary Louis Bassett. They are members of the Daretown Baptist Church, and are the parents of nine children: 1. Mable, a graduate of the New Jersey State Normal School; 2. B. Bassett, a farmer; 3. Agnes L., a graduate of Miss Ilman's School; 4. Alice, also a graduate of girls' school; 5. Mary; 6. Dorothy; 7.

Robbins follows in ancestral occupation, for both his parents and his grandparents in the male line were farmers. At his establishment near Woodstown, he raises a varied crop under intensive farming, and finds time from his agricultural duties to have a word in most public affairs. Mr. Robbins was born at Commissioners Pike, Pilesgrove Township, Salem County, on October 16, 1877, son of William and Mary F. (Tolman) Robbins. His paternal grandparents, Van Room and Margaretta (Blackwell) Robbins, natives of Monmouth County, engaged in farming at Swedesboro for many years, the grandfather living there until his death in 1887 in his eighty-fifth year. The next in line, William, moved to Salem County to establish a farm, buying the Charles Clark estate, and developing the property to a high degree of production. His place was especially famous for the fine horses which were raised there, including Goldsmith Volunteer, Yorktown Belle, and Young Volunteer. William and Mary Robbins were the parents of six children: Van Room, William, Alberta, Blanche, Harry T., and Leon. Harry T. Robbins attended the public schools in Salem County, and remained until his twenty-third year upon the family farm at Commissioners Pike. He then farmed on shares for one year, and at the termination of this arrangement, bought the Thomas R. Cole Farm, adjoining the one upon which he had been born and brought up. This farm he has owned and operated successfully ever since. He has one hundred and sixty-five acres, upon which he raises the roughage for his herd of thirty-five graded Holsteins in addition to extensive acreage in tomatoes, white potatoes, corn, and other crops. This farm which he now directs is a worthy successor of those previously held by members of the Robbins family. His work upon it, and his willingness to assume public duties, have made him a prominent member of this community.

Edwin Knowles gave his political allegiance to the Conservative party and both he and his wife were communicants of the Church of England. They were the parents of three children: Edwin H. Knowles of this review; John, a farmer at Kamsack; and Mrs. Peter Fraser of Kelvington, Saskatchewan, whose husband is a merchant. Like the children of so many British people whose work takes them out of the Colonies, Edwin H. Knowles received his early education in England. In 1891, at the age of seventeen, he came to the Northwest Territories and took up a homestead first in the Cut Arm district and afterward in what is now Shillingthorpe district, Saskatchewan, being one of the two settlers in that region. His "next-door neighbour" was fourteen miles away; thirty-three long miles had to be traversed before one could get the none too frequent mails; while at one time the impossible distance of seventy-two miles stretched between him and the nearest doctor. But the young man worked on his land and taught school until he had "proved up". In 1893 he took a course at the Normal School at Regina, the first institution of the kind in the province, following which he taught school for ten years in the districts of Castleton, Cut Arm and Grahame. It was in 1905 that Mr. Knowles first took up ecclesiastical work, being ordained deacon in that year. In 1906 he was ordained priest. It was not until after he had been ordained to the ministry that Mr. Knowles completed his course at the University of Manitoba and graduated with the LL.B. degree in 1909. His first charge was at Buffalo Lake, Saskatchewan, where he remained for five years, following which he was in charge of the parish at Kamsack for two years before he came to Regina. In 1911 he was made secretary of the Synod, a position he has filled ever since, and three years later he became canon. He was appointed to his present office of archdeacon in 1918. The same year witnessed his appointment to the post of honorary chaplain of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and he had nine years previously been made examining chaplain to the Bishop of Qu'Appelle. In connection with his work the archdeacon travels a great deal. Another of his duties is that of lecturer in canon law at St. Chad's College, Regina. In 1898 Mr. Knowles was married to Miss Violet D.M. Mapleton, in St. Augustne's church, Saltcoats. Mrs. Knowles was born in Surrey, England, and is the eldest daughter of the late J.H.E. Mapleton, the first homesteader in the Shillingthorpe district, and Mr. Knowles' sole neighbor in the early pioneer days. One child has been born to Mr. and Mrs. Knowles: E.H.M. Knowles, who graduated with the degree of B.A. from the University of Saskatchewan, in the class of 1922, and is now completing his law course in the office of Messrs.

| 48774 | The Story of Southwester Florida, Family and Personal History Volume II, 1957 Philip Bennett Huguenin - Since the boom days of 1925, Philip Bennett Huguenin has had a hand in the development of Southwester Florida through his activities in the electric light and power business. Now district manager of the Florida Power and Light Company at Bradenton, he looks back at a long career in a similar position at Sarasota and to the days when he helped plan and install the transmission line tying together the company's electric generating stations and forward to continued expansion of his company and the continued growth of his region. He has been active in financial institutions and other economic programs, in health and welfare work, and in civic an religious groups. Born at Wilmette, Illinois, on September 28, 1900, he is the son of Philip and Gertrude (Bennett) Huguenin. He attended the public schools of Wilmette and Winnetka, Illinois, and was graduated from high school in the later city. With Worlk War I embroiling many nations breaking out at the time he took his diploma, Mr. Huguenin affered his services to the American Red Cross as a ambulance driver and was overseas until August 1919. Upon his return to the states and civilian life, he matriculated at Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois. After two years of study there, he became a student-employee of the Inland Steel Company in Chicago. In the fall of 1925, Mr. Huguenin was appointed to the staff of the Phoenix Utility Company, a construction firm which erected power plants and installed transmission lines for the Florida Power and Light Company. Sent to Florida as a surveyor along the southwest coast for generation station transmission lines, he has been in this region ever since. He remained with what was then the new system of the Florida Power and Light Company, being attached to the Punta GOrda District in November 1926. The following March he was made manager of the district, a post he held until 1939, when he was transferred to Sarasota District as manager. In 1955 he became manager of the Bradenton District.
