Downer-S.J. Clarke Publishing Co. 1910 Chicago” The strength and determination to succeed despite the presence of many obstacles-characteristics strongly evident in the pioneers of Scott county-are traits which Hannibal H. Fridley inherited as his birthright. His mother, who was Miss Harriet Mounts in the days of her maidenhood, enjoyed the distinction of being the first white girl born within the boundaries of this county. It was the 2d of September, 1835, when she was brought into the world. Jacob Fridley, the father of our subject, was born in Augusta county, Virginia, although that section of the state was later included within the boundaries of West Virginia, March 27, 1820. In his young manhood he came to Scott county, and after some experience here bought the tract of land in Buffalo township on which his son, Hannibal H. Fridley lives today. It has, in fact, always been the latter's home, for upon it he was born January 15, 1862. Here he grew to manhood, attending the public school of the district until he was thirteen years, when he was compelled to assume some of a man's responsibilities upon the farm. In the thirty odd years that he has cultivated it with a determination to win from its soil the largest returns possible, he has become more attached to it. It has, to be sure, rendered him large returns for his labors, but it is also associated with many memories which have come to have a real place in his life. In 1892 Mr. Fridley was married to Miss Annie Churkey, a daughter of Beard Churkey, of Iowa county. They have become the parents of four children, namely: Lincoln B., who was born February 20, 1893; Luella M., who was born October 21, 1894; Virgie F., who was born June 14, 1896; and Jacob T., who was born March 27, 1898. Since he has been of an age to exercise his right to vote, Mr. Fridley has invariably given his support to the candidates of the republican party, as the choice of an organization in whose principles he places the greatest confidence. While he has not been active in public affairs, he has been sincerely interested in the subject of popular education, and, as president of the school board he has exerted his influence in bettering the lower grads that those who are compelled to leave their studies early may have the best training possible. Mr. Fridley's is a life worthy of all praise and he has devoted himself unquestionably to what he considered his duty, winning a gratifying measure of success. Contributor: Irwin
