Marty Smith sent the following from the "History of Trumbull andMahoning Counties, Ohio" published by H.Z. Williams & Bros.inCleveland, OH in 1882.
On pages 327 & 328 of Volume I, we find the following: "The name Hoytoccurs so frequently in the preceding pages, relating to the civil andindustrial history of Warren that a brief sketch of the family will beof interest in this connection. Lewis Hoyt was a native of Norwalk,Connecticut, and was born in the year 1782. It was the custom of thewell-to-do young men in those days to learn a trade. Mr. Hoyt servedan apprenticeship in a hatter's shop, the manufacture of hats being aprofitable branch of the industry. He married, in 1804, AbigailMygatt, whose father, Comfort S. Mygatt, soon after removed to theWestern Reserve
and settled at Canfield. Mr. Hoyt also began to seek a more promisingfield for his business, and accordingly wrote to his brother-in-law,Elisha Whittlesey, at Canfield, asking whether that would be a goodpoint for a hatter. Mr. Whittlesey, with characteristic humor,replied that 'people out West were born without hats on.'
In 1808 he removed from Connecticut with his family, then consistingof a wife and two children, and from that date Canfield was his home.He died in Cleveland in October, 1828. Mrs. Abigail Hoyt lived to theage of eighty-two years, the date of her death being August 27, 1867.Their family consisted of six children, one of whom, Eli, died inearly manhood.
Lucy A. married John C. Smith in 1826. They lived on Long Island, NewYork, until after his death. She then moved to Warren.
Edward E. Hoyt was born in Danbury, Connecticut, in July, 1807. Heserved seven years apprenticeship at the harness and saddlery trade inWarren. In 1832 he engaged in mercantile pursuits, to which he gaveexclusive attention until the time of his death, which occurred June20, 1864. He was a man of quiet manners and close business habits. Hemarried in Hubbard, Trumbull county, Martha L. Callander, who isliving. Four children are living - two sons and two daughters. EdwardW. has been city clerk for a number of years; John S. is sheriff ofTrumbull county. The daughters are Abigail M. (Briscoe) and FrancesA. (Jameson).
Comfort L., second son of Lewis Hoyt, was born in Canfield, August 2,1811. He clerked in Warren for some years, and then removed toPainesville, where he was in the banking business twenty-eight years.He was married three times. His death occurred in Painesville, July20, 1866.
For almost half a century James Hoyt has been one of the most active,vigilant, and public spirited citizens in Warren. He was born inCanfield, February 22, 1814. At the age of fourteen he began learningthe saddlery trade in Warren under the direction of Henry Stiles, andserved six years apprenticeship. He worked at the trade until 1851,but was also in
partnership with his brother, Edward E., engaged in mercantilebusiness, having purchased an interest in 1837. He retired from thestore after the death of his brother in 1864. Mr. Hoyt married March26, 1840, Elizabeth Brown, of Warren. Their family consisted of twosons, Eli S., who is dead, and James B., who resides in Warren. Aprominent characteristic of Mr.
Hoyt is the interest he takes in public affairs. He was a member ofthe first fire company organized in Warren, and has ever since beenwatchful of the public safety. Since Warren has been made anincorporated city, he has been marshal, recorder, mayor, andcouncilman (a part of the time being president of that body), makingtwelve years consecutive service. He had previously under the villagegovernment served four years as mayor, and three years in the council.He was township treasurer nineteen years, and for seven years held theoffice of assistant assessor of internal revenue. Mr. Hoyt isespecially mentioned by the witer of the history of Mahoning lodge, I.O. O. F., as a zealous and active memeber. During the war he was amember of the local military committee, and in that capacity dideffective work in the Union cause. A man so prominently connectedwith public affairs of local character could not expect to escapecriticism, but his unselfish devotion to the public good has neverbeen questioned, and on the whole his management of affairs entrustedto him has been entirely
satisfactory.
Lewis Hoyt, the youngest of the sons of Lewis Hoyt, Sr., was born inCanfield, June 15, 1816. He has been in mercantile business in Warrensince 1837. His specialty for a number of years was drugs, and heacquired the reputation of being an expert pharmacist. He is atpresent engaged in the drug business. He married in 1847, Sarah M.Spear, of Warren. They have three children, Comfort L., Abigail, andAnnie."
