HOARD, Joseph Seth (Civil War) was born in
Augusta, Oneida, now Stockbridge, Madison county, NY on April 17,
1818. He attended the Stockbridge Academy of his native place for
a number of years and on the 21st day of January, 1841 was
married at Augusta to Miss Laura M. Robins. Of this union three
children live to bless their declining years - E. Harry Hoard,
Mrs. Ada Louis Tenney and Miss Nellie Josephine. Mrs. Hoard was
born in Augusta June 3, 1819. The subject of this sketch followed
mercantile pursuits in that county until 1844; a portion of the
time at Morrisonville, the county seat of Madison county. That
year he removed to Mansfield, PA, where he resided until 1861. In
the intervening time Mr. Hoard originated and successfully
founded the Mansfield Classical Seminary, now the State Normal
School, an institution that today stands high on the roll of
honor among the educational institutions of the country. For
three years, Mr. Hoard devoted himself to this good work with all
the enthusiasm of his nature, until he saw his efforts crowned
with success, and his brightest anticipation fully realized. In
June of 1861, Mr. Hoard raised a company of nearly 100 men, was
commissioned Captain of Co. B, and assigned to duty in the 11th
Reg. Pa. Vols., Col. Coulter commanding. Soon after he was
transferred to the 101st PA. Reg. Early in 1862 he was promoted
to the position of Major and with his regiment entered on the
Peninsular Campaign. Major Hoard suffered much from the miasmatic
climate of the Chickahominy, but he still clung to his post of
duty, and in the battle of Fair Oaks distinguished himself,
receiving the thanks of General Casey on the field. His regiment
was posted in the extreme front, and to him belongs the credit of
advancing the picket line to a point on the Williamsburg Road, in
close proximity to Richmond. On the 1st of July, 1862, he was
promoted to the rank of Lieut. Colonel. Finding at the conclusion
of the campaign that his health was greatly impaired, in
September of 1862 he resigned. May 30th at the battle of Fair
Oaks, Major Hoard was counted among the killed and the New York
papers reported him so. The Colonel of the regiment was sick in
the hospital, and Lieut. Colonel Morris being wounded early in
the fight was carried from the field, so the command devolved
upon Major Hoard, the next in rank. In this hard fought battle
few of the 101st were left to tell the tale. The news reached his
family that the Major was among the fallen on the fatal day, and
in their deep grief, they gave instructions to have his body
embalmed and brought home for sepulture. But imagine their joy
and amazement when shortly after he appeared before them, not in
the spirit but in the flesh, a devoted husband and a loving
father, as one risen from the dead. For some months after leaving
the army Col. Hoard was an invalid, but he finally recovered and
engaged in merchandising at Tarrytown, New York; remained there
about one year, then removed to Vineland, N.J. in 1863; did
business there until 1868; then came to Chicago; where he engaged
in the real estate business and money loaning. January 1871, Mr.
Hoard moved to Minnesota, settling in Red Wing and in 1873 he
built a residence in Winona, but never made that place his
permanent home. His first business at Red Wing in 1871, was to
establish the Minnesota Loan Agency. That year, with others, he
started the Goodhue County Savings Bank and in January of 1878,
the Goodhue County Bank. In addition of his banking enterprises
Mr. Hoard has aided largely in building up the city, and many of
her fine buildings and business blocks are due to his public
spirit and business ability. Centennial Block, Union Block and
the large stone block on Bush street now in course of
construction, the Greenwood Block and other buildings and blocks
are some of the many enterprises with which he is identified and
that he has established. Near the city he is improving a
beautiful farm, poetically called Idlewild, where he designs to
retire when he puts aside the cares and burdens of a busy life.
