John Bricker, one of the six children of that pioneer home in Columbiana county, was the father of our subject. He was born in 1808, and was reared to agricultural pursuits on his father's farm. When a young man he came into possession of the old homestead in Center township by purchase and otherwise, and remaining on the farm throughout the whole of his life made agriculture his sole business. His scholastic training was very limited, but he was a man of superior natural ability, and not only thoroughly systematic in the conduct of his affairs, having a place for every tool and utensil used on the farm, where it could be found by any one in the darkest night, but was progressive as well; indeed, was what is known as a scientific farmer, and was continually experimenting in order to acquire improved methods in raising farm crops.
Early in life he married Rebecca Burger, a native of Columbiana county, of German descent, and they had a family of eleven children, as follows: George, Jacob, Henry, Sophia, Nancy, David, Lydia Ann, Catharine, Lucinda, Daniel and Joseph. Sophia married William Grover, and died in Boone, Iowa. Nancy married Joseph Brinker, and resides in her native place. Lydia Ann married James Figley; Catharine married John Figley, and both are widows residing in their native place. Lucinda married David Shine, and died a year after marriage. The mother died in the spring of 1851, and was buried in the cemetery of St. Jacob's Church, Salem. Mr. Bricker married for his second wife, Mrs. Lydia Ervin, née Sampsill, and she became the mother of four children, as follows: Jesse, Rebecca, Eli and Minty. Rebecca married E. Smith, who died, and after his decease she married Newton Long. They reside at Center. Minty married George Long, and resides at Center, also. As this record shows, John Bricker was the father of fifteen children. Two of his sons, Henry and David served as soldiers in the Union Army during the war of the Rebellion. Mr. Bricker was a lifelong Democrat. His religious belief was that of the German Reformed Church, of which he was a valued member. He held the office of deacon in that Church many years. The home place was greatly improved during his life by modern residence he erected in place of the old pioneer dwelling, the home of his birth, and there in 1884 he passed from earth.[1]
