September 13, 2013 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 First Generation
1. Hugh YOUNG was born (date unknown). According to the marriage record of Hugh's son, Hugh Young (who married Martha Wilson on February 8, 1850), from the First Garvagh Presbyterian Church, Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland (obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, N. Ireland, BT4869W), Hugh Young was a farmer.
According to the 1831 Census of the heads of households in Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland, there were four heads of households named Hugh Young in Co. Londonderry in 1831. They lived in the following Parishes/Townlands: Ballyaghran, Ballemond Big, Ballyaghran, Kiltinny Upper, Desertoghill, Gortacloghan, Tamlaght O'Crilly, Drumgardner. It is difficult to determine which Hugh Young is the Hugh Young with which we are concerned here. Ballyaghran is located near Coleraine, not far from Spittle Hill where Hugh's son lived at the time of his marriage in 1850. Desertoghill is where Martha Wilson, Hugh's daughter-in-law lived in 1850 and Tamlaght O'Crilly is right next to Desertoghill.
Hugh YOUNG had the following children:
+2 i. Mary YOUNG, born 1814, Townland of Ballyagan, Parish of Desertoghill, Bar. of Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, Prov. of Ulster; married Hugh BOICE. +3 ii. Nancy YOUNG, died about 1854, Ireland. 4 iii. Margaret YOUNG was buried on December 6, 1872 in Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. She died in December, 1872. Margaret is thought to be the Maggie Young that is buried in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4, Section D in Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
5 iv. John YOUNG was born (date unknown). +6 v. Hugh YOUNG, born May 12, 1826, Ireland; married Martha J. WILSON, February 8, 1850, Second Garvagh Presb. Ch., Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland; died September 10, 1885.
Second Generation
2. Mary YOUNG was born in 1814 in Townland of Ballyagan, Parish of Desertoghill, Bar. of Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, Prov. of Ulster. The 1880 census in "Historic Pittsburgh, lists a James "(Wilson)" Gilmore,age 28, boarder, born in Ireland, as residing with Mary Boyce, whose occupation is HK (keeping house).
According to Janet Houston Rhein, the letters of James Wilson Houston suggested that Mary was a Wilson, as James referred to Uncle Hugh Boice. Accordingly, she was initially listed as a Wilson, a sister of Isabella and Martha. HOWEVER, there was a Hugh Y. Boice who was an auctioneer in Pittsburgh, who may be a son of Hugh and Mary Boice. Also James Boice's middle initial is "Y" on the records on Central High School in Pittsburgh. It appears that the "Y" stands for Young and they were named after a grandfather, thereby making Mary a Young and not a Wilson. This is now seen as a likelihood, and this change has been made. Mary was a sister of Hugh Young, with whom she and here husband came to the United States.

Mary YOUNG and Hugh BOICE were married. Hugh BOICE was born in 1802 in Ireland. He died before 1880 at the age of 78 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. The William-Rathbone, ship manifest #4473, arriving Port of New York, May 14, 1850 from Liverpool lists Hugh Boyce's occupation as a carpenter, his age as 48 and Mary's age as 35. The children are Hugh, age 14; Matthew, age 8; James, age 7; Mary, age 5; and Mary Elizabeth, age 4. Also listed on the manifest is an Isabella Woodburn, servant, age 17. There are no other Woodburn's listed on the ship's manifest. She may have accompanied the Boyce's and helped with the children. There is, however, no record of her in the 1850 Census for the City of Pittsburgh. She is probably the daughter of John Woodburn, born May 2, 1788, married to Mary Witherow. The 1850 Census for the City of Pittsburgh lists a Hugh and Mary Boice (not Boyce as above in the ship's manifest) and their four children residing in the 7th Ward. Mary Elizabeth is not listed and presumably died shortly after their arrival in Pittsburgh. Hugh's occupation is listed as a laborer. Hugh and Martha Young are listed as residing with them.
The 1860 Census, which has some minor differences in some of the ages from the earlier census, lists Hugh's occupation as a sexton (Oak Alley Reformed Presbyterian Church), Matthew is not listed and may have left home as he was at least 18 years of age or he may have died during this ten year period. There is a Martha Boice, age 17 and a Annie Boice, age 6, both born in Ireland, listed as residing with Hugh and Mary and their family. Their relationship to Hugh Boice is not shown. They are not daughters of Hugh and Mary. I suspect they are sisters (1) who emigrated with another family from Ireland or (2) one or both of their parents died after arrival in the United States. As the 1860 census information in "Historic Pittsburgh" was transcribed from the original records and is in a printed format, it may be that Nancy (five letters) was incorrectly entered as Annie. I have elected to record it as Nancy. Nancy Boice graduated from Central High School in 1871 and was listed a daughter of Hugh Boice. She is also listed as a daughter, Nanna, of Mary Boice in the 1880 Census. It states that she was born in Pennsylvania which differs from the 1860 census. I have elected to show both Martha Boice and Nancy (Annie) Boice as daughters (adopted) of Hugh and Mary Boice. I suspect that Martha may be the Nannie Boyce who was buried in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4 of Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania on August 12, 1870. There is, however, no gravesite marker for this person on lots 28 and 30. (Source-Janet Houston Rhein)
"Recollections of good Hugh Boice come to every High School attendant who knew the kindly old janitor. He never showed any impatience and the boys all liked Hughey. His daughter Nancy, now dead, was of our class of 187I. His son, Rev. Jas. Y. Boice was one of the earlier students who left school to enter the army. Mr. Boice was also janitor of the Oak Alley Reformed Presbyterian Church. Rev. John Douglass - a building and congregation - long since gone as has pastor and Mr. Boice also from among us. We rehearsed our commencement pieces in this old church and had a final rehearsal in the Third Presbyterian Church on Sixth avenue.

"The Old Janitor"
The, bell is silent now; Old Hughey rings no more, I almost see him standing in the hall, The clapper holds he firm, His eyes are on the clock - He's just about to ring the well-known call. How plainly I can see him watching by the clock, with the bell in his hand, waiting for the exact second to ring it;

On October 19, 1854, John Huston, Hugh Boice and Hugh Young each purchased a 1/3 interest in Lots 28 and 30, Range 4, Section D in Mount Union Cemetery (later Union Dale Cemetery), Pittsburgh, from the Trustees of The First Associate Reformed Church. On October 29, 1874, Hugh Boice sold his 2/3 interest, having purchased earlier the 1/3 interest of Hugh Young, to James Wilson Houston. There are 10 individuals listed as buried in these lots and all have been associated specifically with the existing families, except Nannie Boyce, buried on August 12, 1870 and Maggie Young, buried on December 6, 1872.
Hugh BOICE and Mary YOUNG had the following children:
7 i. Hugh BOICE was born in 1836 in Ireland. Hugh's occupation is listed as carpenter on 1860 Census in Pittsburgh. There is a Hugh Y. (Young?) Boyce listed as an auctioneer at 419 Smithfield St., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1890, although there is no confirmation that this is the same Hugh Boyce.
8 ii. Matthew BOICE was born in 1842 in Ireland. He died before 1860 at the age of 18 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. 9 iii. James Y. BOICE was born in 1843 in Ireland. James left Central High School, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1863 to enlist in the army in the Civil War. James' Service Record:
Enlisted as a Private on 19 July 1864 Enlisted in company F. 193rd Infantry Regiment Pennsylvania on 19 July 1864 Promoted to Full Corporal on 07 October 1864 Mustered out on 09 November 1864 in Pittsburgh, Pa.
PENNSYLVANIA
ONE HUNDRED and NINETY-THIRD INFANTRY (One Hundred Days)
One Hundred and Ninety-third Infantry. - Col., John B, Clark; Lieut.-Col., James W. Ballantine; Maj., Horatio K. Tyler. Co. E of this regiment was recruited in Lawrence county, a part of Co. I in Warren county and the remainder in Allegheny. It rendezvoused at Camp Howe, Pittsburg, and was mustered into the U. S. service July 19, 1864, for a 100 days' term. A few days later it left for Baltimore and was there assigned to Nagle's brigade. It was engaged during its term of enlistment in guarding the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore railroad, and on provost guard duty in and about Wilmington, Del. It was mustered out at Pittsburg, Nov, 9, 1864. Before leaving for home, Capt. McMunn of Co. A was instrumental in securing the reenlistment of a considerable number of the men to serve during the remainder of the war. These men were distributed according to their preferences among the regiments at the front. (Source - History of

James later became a minister. 10 iv. Martha BOICE was born in 1843 in Ireland. Martha was the adopted daughter of Hugh and Mary Boice.
11 v. Mary BOICE was born in 1844 in Ireland. 12 vi. Mary Elizabeth BOICE was born in 1845 in Ireland. She died in 1850 at the age of 5. 13 vii. Nancy BOICE was born in 1854 in Ireland. She died between 1881 and 1883 at the age of 27 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. Nancy appears to be the adopted daughter of Hugh and Mary Boice. The 1880 Census in "Historic Pittsburgh" lists a Nanna Boice, age 26, as daughter of Mary Boyce (Boice). This may be the daughter (adopted) of Hugh and Mary Wilson Boice who graduated from Central High School in Pittsburgh in 1871.
3. Nancy YOUNG died about 1854 in Ireland. According to Janet Houston Rhein, 3010 Dick Wilson Drive, Sarasota, FL 34240; email: [email protected], Nancy was the daughter of a Hugh Young. This is pure speculation, but she will tentatively be linked as a daughter of Hugh Young, father of Hugh Young, who married Martha ("Mattie") Wilson.
In response to whether this tentative link makes sense, Janet Houston Rhein responded as follows: "John Huston (born 1810), in a letter to his mother in Ireland, dated March 28, 1857, among other things: refers to his Brother William (no known date of birth) who lost his dear wife Nancy; states that "Brother John Young wrote to me after father's death;" and "Brother John wrote to H. Young about sister Nancy's death". As one reads John Huston's letters, he refers, in a number of instances, to brother and sister in laws as brother or sister. It takes a careful reading and some interpreting to reconstruct the various relationships. When I initially read this letter and, in again reading it today (January 11, 2001) along with my related notes, I concluded that Nancy was a Young and that, in all probability John, William and Nancy were of the same generation. When I placed Nancy as a sister of Hugh Young married to Martha Wilson, I may have made too literal an interpretation of the third point above iin John Huston's letter. What he may have meant was that Brother John Young wrote to H. Young about John Young's sister Nancy's death - not Hugh's sister's death. As I now look at it a little more closely, I am of the view that Nancy Young, married to William Huston, is probably an aunt of the Hugh Young married to Martha Wilson. This would make Nancy Young's brother John Young an uncle of Hugh."
William HUSTON, son of William HUSTON and Hannah WOODBURN, was born in Ireland.
William HUSTON and Nancy YOUNG had the following child:
+14 i. Robert HUSTON, married Elizabeth DRIPS, August 3, 1854, Second Garvagh, Presb. Ch., Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland.
6. Hugh YOUNG was born on May 12, 1826 in Ireland. He died on September 10, 1885 at the age of 59. He was buried on September 12, 1885 in Union Dale Cemetery, Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. According
5 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 to the marriage records of the First Garvagh Presbyterian Church, Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland, obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, N. Ireland, BT4869W, in 1850, Hugh was from carpenter from Spittle Hill, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland. Spittle Hill is a townland located on the northern edge of the town of of Coleraine in the civil parish of Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland. According to these marriage records, Hugh's father was named Hugh Young.
Hugh and his wife Martha sailed from Liverpool, England on the ship William-Rathbone, arriving in New York on May 14, 1850. (According to The Famine Immigrants, v. V, ed. Ira Glazier, Gen. Pub. Co. (1985)) According to the 1850 census (taken September 24, 1850), they lived with a Hugh and Mary Boyce and their five children in the 7th Ward of Pittsburgh in 1850. Everyone in the house is shown to have been born in Ireland. In fact, Hugh and Mary Boyce and their children also came to America on the William-Rathbone with Hugh and Mary Young. A Hugh Young declared his intention to become a U.S. citizen on Jan 11, 1854. (According to "A List of Immigrants Who Applied for Naturalization Papers in the District Courts of Allegheny Co., Pa.", W.Pa.Gen.Soc., v.2.)
According to both the 1860 and 1880 censuses, Hugh, Mary and family continued to lived in the 7th Ward of Pittsburgh. Hugh is shown to be a carpenter. According to Janet Houston Rhein, Hugh was a carpenter from Spittle Hill, a townland in Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland. All of his and Mattie's children were born in Pennsylvania.
According to the obituary in the Sept. 11, 1885 edition of the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette, he died at 2:47 a.m. on Thursday, September 10, 1885. The funeral was at his late residence, No. 119 13th St., South Side, Pittsburgh, PA on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. According to the same obituary, he was a Jr., suggesting that his father's name was also Hugh Young.
Hugh YOUNG and Martha J. "Mattie" WILSON were married on February 8, 1850 in Second Garvagh Presb. Ch., Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland. According to the marriage records of the First Garvagh Presbyterian Church, Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland, obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, N. Ireland, BT4869W, John Wilson (Martha's father) and John Woodburn Wilson (Martha's brother) were witnesses at Hugh and Martha's marriage. Martha J. "Mattie" WILSON, daughter of John WILSON and Mary WOODBURN, was born on June 16, 1830 in Ireland. She died on April 25, 1904 at the age of 73 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. She was buried on April 28, 1904 in Union Dale Cemetery , Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. According to the marriage records of the First Garvagh Presbyterian Church, Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland, obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Heritage Library, 14 Bishop Street, Derry, N. Ireland, BT4869W, in 1850, Martha was a "spinster" living in Ballyagan, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland. Ballyagan is located in the civil parish of Desertoghill, about one mile to the northeast of the town of Garvagh, Co. Londonderry, N. Ireland.
According to Janet Houston Rhein, based correspondence in her possession, and supplemented to a degree by the information contained in the material on the William Rathbone, she is almost 100% certain that Martha Wilson, born June 16, 1830, is a sister of Isabella Wilson, born 1815. While there is a purported difference of 15 years in their dates of birth, this would not be unusual for a family with 12 children. Further, she is almost 100% certain that Nancy Wilson, married to Hugh Dunlap, mother of James Wilson Dunlap, is also a sister of Martha and Isabella.
According to the 1880 census, Martha was born in Ireland (as were her parents) and she kept the house in 1880. According to the obituary in the April 26, 1904 edition of the Pittsburgh Gazette, her funeral was at the residence of her daughter, Martha Young Woodburn, at 912 Florence Ave., Avalon, PA.

Robert was born in Ireland. According to his granddaughter Nancy Gosser Rosenblatt, he was from Coleraine, in N. Ireland. She also thinks he had two sisters who lived in N. Ireland. (This recollection is consistent with the information supplied by David Woodburn, who said that two daughters of Matthew and Isabel Woodburn, a Mrs. Scott of Ballymena and a Mrs. Brewster of Coleraine, lived in Ireland while their seven other children went to the United States.) According to Nancy Rosenblatt, he greatly admired Queen Victoria and he had a fiery temper.
Robert immigrated to the United States on the S.S.Scandinavian, arriving in the Port of Baltimore in September 1888. His age is shown to be 22, his occupation is shown to be a miner, and his intended destination is Allegheny City, Pennsylvania. From some reason, the manifest states he from Scotland.

31. Agnes E. WEBB was born on October 9, 1888 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. She died on April 6, 1984 at the age of 95 in McDonald, Washington Co., Pennsylvania. The obituary below creates a confusing problem. We know that Alice S. Madden, mentioned in the obituary, was born in Ilinois in about 1930. We know that her maiden name was Shorey. We know that Alice Shorey, married to a Ralph Shorey, died December 21, 1929 in Chicago, Illinois. We know that Alice Webb and Agnes Webb were sisters. The only solution to the problem is that Ralph Shorey married Agnes after Alices's death. If this is true, it is not clear why Agnes and Ralph did not raise Alice, except perhaps that they did not want to disrupt Alice's life any further.
The following obituary was published in the McDonald (Washington Co., Pennsylvania) Record-Outlook on April 12, 1984 and was transcribed and made available on the Rootsweb.com message boards in 2013:

Elizabeth "Libby" GIBSON and John Deaver DRINKO were married on May 14, 1946. John Deaver DRINKO died on January 30, 2008 in Palm Springs, Riverside Co., California. He was born in St. Mary's, West Virginia. The following obituary appeared in The Plain Dealer (Cleavland, Ohio) on January 31, 2008:
John Deaver Drinko dies; guided growth of Baker Hostetler law firm
He referred to himself as a poor boy from the hills of West Virginia, who as a youth during the Depression wrestled bears and sold women's hosiery door to door to earn money to support his mother and sister.
But most people knew John Deaver Drinko either as the brilliant lawyer who guided the growth of the Cleveland law firm Baker Hostetler for 16 years or as the man whose support helped build college, law school and medical facilities throughout the region.
Drinko, 86, died Wednesday night in a hospital in Palm Springs, Calif., where he and his wife, Elizabeth, spent winter months. A cause of death was not immediately reported, although a family spokeswoman said Drinko had been suffering from pneumonia.
From spring through fall, Drinko could be found at his downtown law office on the 33rd floor of the National City Center building. He often worked five days a week, dividing his time between his law practice and extensive charitable work.
He gave away millions of dollars of his own money to various institutions, particularly higher education.
Because of his philanthropy, Drinko's name appears on several college buildings, among them a $29 million library at Marshall College, now known as Marshall University, in Huntington, W.Va., where he received his
24 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 bachelor's degree in 1942; the Ohio State University Michael E. Moritz College of Law, where he received his law degree in 1944; and a recital hall at Cleveland State University.
He funded other educational endeavors, endowing a total of 15 faculty chairs at various schools. Two were at Ohio State, with others at Case Western Reserve University School of Law, Case Western's nursing program, John Carroll University, Cleveland State University Cleveland-Marshall College of Law, Capital University Law School and the Dwyer Learning Center at Notre Dame College of Ohio, which in May 1997 awarded him an honorary degree -- his 10th.
Among the institutions benefiting from his generosity were Baldwin-Wallace, Capital, Hiram, Lake Erie, Mount Union and Ohio University.
He also spent years in education-related board work. He was a trustee of the Ohio State University Foundation, the Marshall University Foundation and the Sage Cleveland Foundation.
He credited education for his success
Drinko said that education helped him escape a hard-scrabble beginning and that without it, "I would still be back shooting squirrels in West Virginia.
"I was a poor boy, and someone had to build those dang places before I got there, so I always wanted to pay that back," he said.
"Education opens the world," he said. "It helps to improve you as a person. That's why reading is a great thing. Education became a great economic force in our society. The economic impact of all the Cleveland colleges is tremendous."
Drinko's board work extended beyond education. He was a trustee and president of the Mellen Foundation, created by former Cleveland investment banker Edward J. Mellen, who amassed a fortune by buying, selling and financing about 20 small industrial companies.
He was a trustee of the Hostetler Foundation, created by Joseph C. Hostetler, who together with Newton D. Baker, founded Baker & Hostetler. He also was a trustee of the Baker Hostetler Founders' Trust, the firm's charitable arm.
He was board chairman of the Cleveland Institute of Electronics Inc. and of Double D Ranch Inc., which he established in 1971 in Coshocton County. It started as a hobby farm and grew into a 1,700-acre crop-and-cattle enterprise.
Drinko also was a past director of Cloyes Gear and Products Inc. and the Standard Products Co. and was still on the boards of the Orvis Co. and Preformed Line Products Co. when he died.
He inspired those around him
Drinko's vast intellect -- his IQ in college was 185 -- inspired awe among the firm's young lawyers and others who dealt with him. The high school he attended in St. Marys, W.Va., hired a professor from Marietta College to tutor him in Greek and Latin after he completed all of his required high school courses.
Remembering information came so easily to him, he said, that even in law school he never took notes, instantly recalling anything he had read or heard. Even while running Baker & Hostetler, he rarely took notes. And though
25 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 law school was tough, he completed it while working full-time as a rate scheduler for a trucking company.
"Intellect alone will not get you anywhere," he said. "Hard work is what leads to a good living." During his career, he said he routinely worked seven days a week, often late into the evening.
He had moved to Cleveland in 1945, accepting Joe Hostetler's offer of $125 a month -- a sum he would later earn in less than 30 minutes -- becoming the 23rd lawyer hired by the firm. He quickly rose through the ranks, serving as the law firm's managing partner from 1969 to 1975 and from 1978 to 1985.
During his leadership, the firm expanded from one office with about 70 attorneys to five offices with over 200 attorneys. Baker Hostetler now has operations in 10 cities and more than 600 attorneys.
Drinko practiced corporate and business law and as senior adviser to the firm's policy committee continued to provide counsel to a number of major clients.
"John really had the vision to see the firm as not just a local Cleveland firm but a firm that could become national," said R. Steven Kestner, Baker Hostetler's executive partner.
Kestner said he lunched monthly with Drinko and found him always willing to listen and help in any way he could.
"He was a mentor to all of us," Kestner said.
Memorial service planned
In addition to his wife of 61 years, Drinko is survived by sons John Randall, president of the family-owned Cleveland Institute of Electronics, and J. "Deaver," who operates the family's Double D. Ranch; two daughters, Dr. Diana Lynn Drinko, a pediatrician in Farmington, N.M., and Elizabeth Lee Sullivan, a museum docent in Tucson, Ariz; 11 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
Kestner said a memorial service for Drinko probably will be held in Cleveland, but plans were not finalized.
The family said that contributions in Drinko's memory could be made to Marshall University Foundation Inc., 1 John Marshall Drive, Huntington, WV 25755, or The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, 220 Drinko Hall, 55 West Twelfth Avenue, Columbus 43210.

The following press release was issued by the law firm of Baker Hostetler on February 1, 2008:
Firm Mourns Passing of Former Executive Partner John D. Drinko Guided Growth of Baker Hostetler from 1969-1985
CLEVELAND, OH – February 1, 2008 – John D. Drinko, who guided Baker Hostetler as its Executive Partner from 1969-1985, and who transformed it with his vision from a Cleveland law firm with 69 lawyers to a national law firm with multiple offices and over 200 lawyers during his tenure, died January 30 in Palm Springs, California. He was 86.
Mr. Drinko was a corporate lawyer whose legal knowledge, business acumen and vision were the keys to a long
26 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 and successful career. He counseled many clients, as both attorney and business advisor, through periods of substantial growth and success. Included among his major clients were The Orvis Company, The Standard Products Company, Preformed Line Products Company, and McGean-Rohco, Inc. Mr. Drinko served as a director on their boards, and the boards of several other corporations. He was also a trustee of six foundations, including The Ohio State University Foundation and the Marshall University Foundation. Even in his 80's, Mr. Drinko remained active at the firm. "John and I would have lunch together once a month when he was in town. We would talk about firm issues, business issues, client issues—and John always had a helpful insight or comment," said Steven Kestner, current Executive Partner of the firm.
In addition to leading Baker Hostetler into the era of the national law firm, Mr. Drinko was also instrumental in breaking down barriers to opportunity that historically had existed at large corporate law firms. Under his leadership, Baker Hostetler hired the first Jewish partner and the first African American partner at a major Cleveland law firm.
Mr. Drinko compiled an enviable record of civic commitment. He and foundations that he funded or controlled endowed 15 faculty chairs at various colleges and universities, including one at Marshall University, from which he graduated in 1942, and two at the Ohio State Law School, from which he graduated in 1944. He also was awarded ten honorary degrees from various colleges and universities. The law school classroom building at Ohio State is named in honor of him, as is the library at Marshall University. Mr. Drinko was also a major contributor to the Cleveland Museum of Art, the United Way, the Cleveland Orchestra, and the Cleveland Institute of Music. Drinko Recital Hall at Cleveland State University was named in his honor in recognition of his support of the musical arts.
For all his professional success, Mr. Drinko never forgot his roots, and the difficult time he had growing up in depression-era West Virginia. His efforts to encourage and fund education were the outgrowth of his life-long commitment to helping others with ambition to have an opportunity to succeed.
Mr. Drinko is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, to whom he was married for over 60 years; four children, John Randall, president of the family-owned Cleveland Institute of Electronics, J. Deaver, who operates the family's Double D Ranch in Coshocton, Ohio, Diana Lynn Drinko, a pediatrician in Farmington, N.M., and Mrs. Elizabeth Lee Sullivan, a museum docent in Tucson, Ariz.; eleven grandchildren; and two great grandchildren.
Mr. Drinko was a member of the American, Ohio and Cleveland Bar Associations, The Union Club, The Mayfield Country Club, and a long-standing member of Heights Presbyterian Church. He was also very proud of his service as a 33rd Degree Scottish Rite Mason. Mr. Drinko was a long-time resident of Lyndhurst, Ohio, but typically spent the winter in Palm Springs, California.
Funeral services will be private. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, March 29, 2008, at 2:00 p.m. at The Church of the Covenant located on the campus of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. The family suggest contributions for those who wish to the Marshall University Foundation, Inc., 1 John Marshall Dr., Huntington, W. Va. 25755, or The Ohio State University Michael E. Moritz College of Law, 220 Drinko Hall, 55 West Twelfth Ave., Columbus, Ohio 43210.

The following obituary appeared in the Herald-Dispatch (Huntington, West Virginia) on February 1, 2008:
John Drinko, great Marshall University patron, dead at 86
February 01, 2008 @ 03:36 PM
27 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013
Herald-Dispatch.com
HUNTINGTON — John D. Drinko, one of Marshall University's greatest benefactors and most well-known graduates, died Jan. 30 in Palm Springs, Calif., according to a press release from the Baker Hostetler law firm. He was 86.
The Marshall library is named for Drinko.
"The hearts of the entire Marshall University community are filled with sadness as we mourn the passing of Dr. John Deaver Drinko," said Marshall University President Stephen J. Kopp in a statement released by the university. "He was a man of extraordinary intellect, generosity and distinction. A fascinating story-teller, his humble beginnings in rural West Virginia amid impoverished circumstances taught him lessons that forever shaped and inspired his life and career. Dr. Drinko was truly a giant among men renowned for his brilliance, principle and resolve. His life accomplishments rank him among the greatest alumni of Marshall University.
“Dr. Drinko and his lovely wife, Libby (Elizabeth Gibson Drinko), shared a love of Marshall University. They also shared a mutual belief in the power of higher education to change lives and reveal unseen futures for young people. Their generosity involving virtually all areas of the University have touched countless lives and provided untold opportunities for many members of the Marshall University family. Dr. John Deaver Drinko will be forever remembered as a ‘Son of Marshall.’”
Drinko and his wife, Elizabeth Gibson Drinko, were among the leading supporters of Marshall University.
"His presence is felt all over the institution," Alan Gould, the executive director of the Drinko Academy for American Political Institutions and Civic Culture at Marshall, said in 2005. "If John is going to be around it, it's going to be good."
Drinko, a native of St. Marys, W.Va., was forced by the Great Depression to start working at a young age. According to "John Deaver Drinko: A Man of Many Parts," Drinko supplied the main source of income for his family when he was nine years old.
By the time he was 12, he was driving trucks, mining coal, and had even wrestled bears at fairs.
"The most wonderful part of your life is when you don't have a thing," Drinko said in the book. "What do you have to lose?"
Drinko not only worked to support his family, but was also mainly self-educated. He taught himself how to speed-read and learned both Latin and Greek. This education would carry him through years of higher education, and laid the foundation for much of his charity work.
However, it was not his grades, but his athletic ability that landed him on scholarship at Marshall College, playing football and basketball for Cam Henderson. While active in sports, he remained supportive of his family, working at a local grocery store and sending the money back to his mother.
He graduated with highest honors from Marshall in 1942, and earned scholarships to Harvard and Duke, but turned them down, instead choosing a school closer to home, as he still supported his family. He enrolled in The Ohio State University College of Law, which has since been named in his honor.
After some postgraduate work at the University of Texas School of Law, Drinko moved to Cleveland, Ohio, and
28 Descendants of Hugh YOUNG 13 September 2013 was hired by Baker, Hostetler and Patterson, one of the first lawyers in the firm to have a law degree from a public institution. He earned $125 a month.
"Intellect alone will not get you anywhere," Drinko is quoted as saying in "John Deaver Drinko: A Man of Many Parts." "Hard work is what leads to a good living."
The law firm began to grow, and at the firm's 75th anniversary in 1991, Drinko was called the driving force behind the firm's growth, which had become one of the largest firms in the nation.
Drinko was what many people called "a people person." According to Gould, Drinko typically walks up to a complete stranger, extends his hand and says, "Hi, I'm John Drinko. Who are you and what do you do?"
His personality is greatly remembered, but more importantly, he remembered those he met.
After the 1970 plane crash, Drinko chartered a plane, flew to Huntington, and raised more than $450,000 in contributions. Upon returning to Cleveland, he wrote a personal check for an undisclosed amount, and many people believe he is behind several anonymous contributions the school received in the months following the crash.
One of the most significant contributions was in 1985, when the Drinkos established the university's first $1 million chair in the College of Liberal Arts. That donation grew into one of Marshall's most significant academic programs, The Drinko Academy for American Political Institution and Civic Culture, which was established in 1994.
As part of the Drinko Academy, there is an annual Drinko Symposium, which provides an opportunity for Drinko Fellows, members of Marshall's faculty who are selected to perform specific research, to present the results of their research to Marshall faculty and students.
Also a part of the symposium is The Elizabeth Gibson Drinko Honors Convocation. Drinko was a trustee of six foundations, including The Ohio State University Foundation and the Marshall University Foundation.
In addition to his university support, Drinko was a nationally known lawyer who helped the firm Baker Hostetler rise to prominence. Under his leadership, Baker Hostetler hired the first Jewish partner and the first African American partner at a major Cleveland law firm, according to a release from the firm.
Drinko is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, to whom he was married for over 60 years; four children, John Randall, president of the family-owned Cleveland Institute of Electronics, J. Deaver, who operates the family's Double D Ranch in Coshocton, Diana Lynn Drinko, a pediatrician in Farmington, N. M., and Mrs. Elizabeth Lee Sullivan, a museum docent in Tucson, Az.; eleven grandchildren; and two great grandchildren.
Funeral services will be private. There will be a memorial service in Cleveland later in the year. The family suggest contributions for those who wish to the Marshall University Foundation, Inc., 1 John Marshall Dr., Huntington, WV 25755, or The Ohio State University Michael E. Moritz College of Law, 220 Drinko Hall, 55 West Twelfth Ave., Columbus, OH 43210.

He entered the Army Specialized Training Program and was assigned to Georgetown University and Randolph Macon College. The program was soon disbanded and he was assigned to the 95th Infantry Division at Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania.

At home, John was friends with all the kids in the neighborhood, including several mentally handicapped children to whom he gave considerable time and loving and patient attention.
Throughout his life, John was intellectually curious, with particular interests in the Civil War and Lutheran theology. Even at age 85, he was always active, saying “I was never bored a day in my life”, and he is enthusiastic in everything he did, believing that “Attitude is more important than skills.” When asked how he is doing, his standard reply was “Outstanding!” After his retirement, he ran in numerous 5-K races, winning numerous trophies in his age group. John was a semi-talented wood-worker, turning out and giving away thousands of wood crafts over the years, before retiring from this hobby in 2009.

During a few performances, I seemed to get so “into the show” that I did not remember performing. I had, and still have, no recollection of being onstage. The shows were all videotaped, and when we watched the tapes I was amazed at how good I was at improvising. Yet, I still had no memory of being that guy on the video. The unique rules, structure, and skill-set required for improv affected my mind differently than when I performed in plays or when I was experiencing my everyday college life. "
