Read More	Silas Maxson was the son of Sutton and Lavinia (Lippincott) Maxson (according to both his death certificate and his father Sutton's obituary which states they had one son. Silas was the only son old enough to be her's). Sadly, his biological mother died when he was a baby and was raised by his father and stepmother Vienna (Sutton) Maxson in Pike Township, Clark County, Ohio near North Hampton. He did serve in the Civil War in the Ohio 66th Volunteer Infantry Regiment which trained in Urbana, Ohio. Although he has no mustered out date so further research needs to be done on that. He married Mary Catherine Kohler on September 28, 1869 in Shelby County, Ohio according to Shelby County marriage records. They lived most of their life in St. Paris, Ohio (on Main Street according to the 1880 census, on North College Avenue according to the 1900 census, and on Jefferson Street according to the 1910 census). They owned their home according to the 1900 and 1910 census. They had ten children together which were John Elmer Maxson, Mary Etta (Maxson) Heck, Clara Maxson (married twice, first to Samuel Pence and then to Wilbur Brown), Rosa (Maxson) Waters, Frank Robert Maxson, Amy Jane (Maxson) Mullin, Margaret Maxson (who was married twice, first to Joseph Owens and then to Jacob Kerr), Grace Maxson which is buried next to them, Mabel Gertrude (Maxson) Lee, and Charles Maxson. Silas worked as a farm laborer. He was listed as an heir in his maternal grandfather Ephraim Lippincott's probate court records from 1874 according to the Champaign County, Ohio Probate Court records in Urbana, Ohio. He was also listed as an heir and son in his father Sutton Maxson's probate court records from 1890 according to the Clark County, Ohio Probate Court records in Springfield, Ohio. Currently, there is definite evidence of what church he was either a member or attended as an adult. What is known is that he was raised in the Seven Day Baptist Church in North Hampton, Ohio. As an adult it is suspected he most likely attended the German Reformed Church in St. Paris, Ohio that was on Lynn St. Unfortunately, that church disbanded in 1940 and the records for that specific parish have not been located. What is known is that five of his daughters and his eldest son John are mentioned in articles from the St. Paris newspapers between 1897 to 1908 as being involved with the German Reformed Church and his son Frank was a member of the German Reformed Church according to Frank's obituary. He died after a long illness of tuberculosis according to his death certificate.
