William McHamner
This venerable pioneer of Center township, Doniphan county, Kansas,
dates his identity with this place from a time when Kansas was a
territory and before the organization of the county and township
in which he lives. He has been an eye witness to the growth and
development of this part of the country during the past 45 years,
and more than that he has as a public spirited and worthy citizen
contributed his share toward bringing about the transformation which
has been wrought here. William McHamner was born in Hardin county,
Ky., September 4, 1818, a son of William and Rebecca (Day) McHamner,
the former a native of Virginia and the latter of Kentucky. Mr.
McHamner's parents were married in Kentucky, and in 1820 moved with
their family to Bartholomew county, Indiana, and settled on a farm,
where they died a few years later, the mother's death occurring first
and the father's soon afterward. The paternal grandfather of our
subject was Henry Hamner. He was a son of a German emigrant to this
country; was born in Virginia, and was a soldier in the Revolutionary
War, giving seven years of his life to his country's service. After
the war he came west to Kentucky, where he passed the rest of his
life and reared a large family. His wife was before marriage Miss
Sarah Deckard and she, too, was a Virginian. The maternal
grandfather of our subject was John Day. He was a native of Hardin
county, Kentucky. William McHamner was two years old when taken by
his parents to Indiana and was nine years old when his father died,
his mother, as already stated, having died before his father. After
this young McHamner went back to Kentucky and until he was sixteen
made his home at his grandfather McHamner's. Then he entered upon
an apprenticeship to the trade of shoemaker, which he completed in
due time but which he did not follow long on account of its not
agreeing with his health. In 1841 Mr. McHamner sought a home further
west than the one in which his grandfather had pioneered, and
accordingly took up his abode in Buchanan county, Missouri, where
he bought a farm of 80 acres and where he lived for twelve years.
In the fall of 1854 he came to the territory of Kansas and located
in what is now Center township, Doniphan county, here pre-empting
160 acres of land. His first work on the claim was to build a log
house, 14 x 16 feet, covered with clapboards, its location being on
Mosquito creek. Here he kept "bachelor's hall" for a number of
years, doing his own cooking and house work and entertaining in as
gracious a manner as possible the friends and strangers who came to
his cabin. As the years passed by and prosperity attended his
efforts his farm assumed a different aspect. The cabin gave place
to a better home and a fine orchard of his own planting came into
bearing. Today his farm is one of the most desirable ones in this
locality. Among its attractions is a fine walnut grove on the creek
bottom. His fields are well cultivated, and among his stock is a
fine herd of Jersey cattle. Mr. McHamner was married, in 1872, to
Miss Lurinda Stone, of Doniphan county, Kansas. She is a daughter
of Jesse and Polly (Parker) Cox, pioneers of this county, who came
here from Missouri in 1854. Mrs. McHamner was born in Indiana in
1833. By her first husband she has one son, Frank E. Stone. She
has no children by her second marriage. When Troy was platted she
did the cooking for the men who did the work. In forty-seven years
she has changed residence but once, and that was from an adjoining
farm to her present place. Politically, Mr. McHamner has always
given his support to the Democratic party. He is a member of Troy
Lodge, No. 55, F. & A. M. Both he and his wife have many pleasant
reminiscences connected with their early life here and are familiar
with every phase of pioneering in this county.
