The unanimity with which he was elected the first president of the Ohio State Bar Association was not marred by even the thought that any other choice was possible. It is not strange that when death came to him on the 6th day of December, 1891, men everywhere united with his family, the host of his friends, his associates at the bar, and the multitude who had profited by his services, in mourning his inestimable loss to his profession and the world. 1 Rufus P. Ranney was born in Hampden County, Mass., October 30, 1813. In common with many other farmers who had grown tired of cultivating the sterile hill-sides of New England, his father was attracted by the fertility of the Ohio soil, and removed in I 822 with his family to what is now Freedom, Portage County, Ohio. Rufus was then nine years old. His home was the log-hut of the earlier settler, surrounded by forests; wolves and bears were a constant menace to domestic animals; of course there were no roads, schools or churches; privations were abundant, but they were cheerfully borne; the energies 1 It is only a matter of justice to state that this sketch of Judge Ran­ ney is taken largely from an able memorial address, delivered by Hon. Samuel E. Williamson, before the Ohio State Bar Association, on July I4th, r8gz. 2 HISTORY OF CLEVELAND-BIOGRAPHICAL. of the whole family were devoted for the time to obtain­ ing food and clothing. But the first settlers of the West­ ern Reserve always cherished the hope of giving their children an education, and, in boys like young Ranney, a firm determination gave reality to the hopes of their par­ ents. Yet the necessity of clearing the timber from the farm permitted him but one winter·s schooling in six years. Such a life could be endured no longer, but his parents could not help him. He therefore chopped wood enough for a neighboring merchant to pay for a Virgil. He also secured instruction enough to fit him for Western Reserve College at Hudson, where he was a student for about a year, supporting himself by manual labor and teaching. It was pathetic as well as amusing to hear him tell of his first appearance in college in a suit of home­ spun butternut. In the spring of I 8 34, he left college and commenced the study of law with Joshua R. Giddings and Benjamin F. Wade, in Ashtabula County. His prep­ aration for the study of law had been a hard and at times a bitter experience, but there was no reason to regret it. Much of his success may be traced to his knowledge of pioneer life, his thorough sympathy with the people, and their methods of thought and honesty of purpose, and his complete dependence upon himself and his own conclusions, the result of habit formed under the necessity of reaching conclusions without books or the advice of friends. After two years and a half of study he was ad­ mitted to the bar of the Supreme Court in I836, and com­ menced practice in Warren, Trumbull County. Early in the following year the partnership between Giddings and Wade was dissolved, and Ranney became Wade's partner. The firm of Wade & Ranney had an extensive business for about ten years. After Wade's election to the bench of the Court of Common Pleas, Ranney continued in practice alone until I850. In the meantime he made Warren his home again, and married, in I 839, Miss Adeline Warner, the daughter of Jonathan Warner, one of the pioneers of Ashtabula County, who served as associate HISTORY OF CLEVELAND-BIOGRAPHICAL. 3 judge for some years. Both Wade and Ranney were ar­ dent politicians, but they werE? by no means harmonious in their political opinions. Ranney was a Democrat of the old-fashioned type and believed in Jefferson and Jack­ son. His party admired him, trusted him and frequently made him its candidate for office, but as he lived in a sec­ tion of the State where his party was generally in a hope­ less minority, even his ability and popularity could not save it from defeat. He found time also to make up to some extent the deficiency in his early education. Acci­ dent and taste combined to direct his attention particu­ larly to the language of France, and as soon as he could read it easily he made a profound study of her literature, politics, history and law. The civil law and the debates which resulted in the Code Napoleon became as familiar to him as the commentaries of Blackstone, and had their part in forming his clear ideas of natural justice and public policy. In I85o, he was elected a member of the convention called to revise the constitution. In March, I 8 5 I, he was elected judge of the Supreme Court by the Legisla­ ture, to succeed Judge Avery, who resigned. The new constitution took effect September I, I 8 5 I, and at the first election in October of that year Judge Ranney was chosen by the people to become one of the judges of the new Supreme Court. In assigning their terms by lot, he drew the longest term, five years, and served until I856, when he resigned and removed to Cleveland, where he resumed the practice of his profession as a member of the firm of Ranney, Backus & Noble. He was appointed United States District Attorney, but resigned at the end of a few months. In I859, he was the unsuccessful candidate for his party, against William Dennison, for the office of gov­ ernor. Three years afterwards the Democrats were un­ expectedly successful in electing their State ticket, and he found himself again a member of the Supreme Court, much against his wishes, as it was his desire that his partner, Franklin T.

    Property Research Guide for Cleveland & Cuyahoga County Cleveland Public Library Prepared by the Center for Local & Global History Cleveland Public Library Revised May 08, 2017 Cleveland Public Library, Louis Stokes Wing Center for Local & Global History 525 Superior Avenue, N.E. Cleveland, Ohio 44114 Telephone: 216.623.2864 [email protected] cpl.org 1 Property Research Guide for Cleveland & Cuyahoga County Where to Start? The resources outlined in this guide can be used to conduct simple research, such as looking up an address in an old city directory, or more complex research, such as tracing the chain of ownership of a property, finding old photographs for a restoration project, locating previous owners, etc. Property researchers must first give some thought to what they want to know about their subject property. Are you looking for something very specific, such as the building permit for a house, or do you want to know “everything?” The next thing to consider is how much time you are willing to invest in your research. People often start with a simple question that leads to a comprehensive research project with many rewarding discoveries. If you are new to historical property research and would like expert guidance, please refer to the selection of books listed at the end of this guide. How is this Guide Organized? Resources in the Cleveland Public Library, Main Library, are listed first. They are organized by building (Louis Stokes Wing and Main Library Building), starting with the Center for Local & Global History. Many of the resources in this guide may require assistance from a knowledgeable staff person.

  • Ohio & Erie Canalway America's Byway Management Plan Update
    Ohio & Erie Canalway America’s Byway Management Plan Update March 15, 2009 1 OHIO & ERIE CANALWAY AMERICA’S BYWAY MANAGEMENT PLAN PREFACE There are rare instances in America where two national programs can significantly influence the future development of a region. In Northeast Ohio, a Congressionally-designated National Heritage Area and a FHWA-designated America’s Byway are doing just that. In November of 1996, President Clinton signed into law the Omnibus Parks Bill, designating the Ohio & Erie Canalway a National Heritage Area. The Ohio Department of Transportation had recognized the Ohio & Erie Canal Scenic Byway (now called Ohio & Erie Canalway America’s Byway) as its first state byway under reformed criteria adopted from the 1991 ISTEA legislation in June of the same year. Later, In June of 2000, the FHWA also invited the same byway to join the family of National Scenic Byways. From the outset, local leaders have viewed the relationship between the two programs as symbiotic. In one sense, the Ohio & Erie Canalway America’s Byway (America’s Byway) plays an instrumental role in redevelopment strategies along the roadway itself. In another role, it serves as the principal roadway to deliver visitors to those historic, cultural, natural and recreational destinations that define the Ohio & Erie Canalway visitor experience. In an effort to minimize confusion and recognize the affiliations between the America’s Byway program and those associated with the Ohio & Erie National Heritage Canalway, local leaders involved with both have agreed on a number of strategic decisions. First, the adoption of the marketing name and wordmark – Ohio & Erie Canalway for both the America’s Byway and the National Heritage Area.

The Buckeye State has produced a very large share of the great men of the nation, some of them from most humble be­ ginnings and who knows what may be the ultimate success of many whose lives, up to date, are recorded herein. The writer wishes to acknowledge his great obligation to Mr. H. M. Laundon of Cleveland, also to Messrs. E. K. Rife and Hal D. Landon of Colmnbus for valuable assistance rendered in the preparation of manuscript. The portraits, included were produced by the Bucher Engrav­ ing G>mpany, mostly from photographs by the Baker Art Gallery of Columbus.
