15415. Charles Daniel Hascall

From The Centennial History of Oregon

Charles D. Hascall, Agricultural pursuits have largely engaged the attention of Charles D. Hascall, who for the past twenty-five years has been residing on his present ranch in Umatilla county. This now embraces one hundred and sixty acres of land and is numbered among the well improved and valuable properties of that community. He was born in the state of New York on the 22d of February, 1837, and is the son of William C. and Finette B. (Storms) Hascall. The parents were born, reared and married in the Empire State, whence they subsequently removed to Maine, and there they both passed away. Their family numbered five sons, four of which have always made their home in the east.

Charles D. Hascall was reared at home and given the advantages of a high school education, and while pursuing his studies he was laying the foundation for an agricultural career by assisting his father with the work of the fields and care of the stock. At the age of twenty one years he started out for himself and as he had never learned a trade he worked for three years as a farm hand. During that time he saved enough money to begin farming on his own account, so located on a farm in Vermont which he cultivated for three years. At the end of that time he returned to Maine, where he continued to follow agricultural pursuits for eight years. Withdrawing from the work of the fields, he went back to Vermont, settling in the town of Proctor, and for eight years was employed in the marble works at that place. Foreseeing that this occupation afforded small hope of financial advancement, he decided to make a change and as the northwest had always attracted him. in 1886, accompanied by his wife and family, he came to Oregon. Immediately following his arrival he filed on the one hundred and sixty acre homestead where he now lives. Two years late he preempted one hundred and sixty acres which he still owns. During his residence in Umatilla county he has engaged in the stock business.  Mr. Hascall's farm is fine land, and as it has been well improved and kept up it not only makes him a very pleasant and comfortable home but provides him with an income that is more than sufficient for the needs of his family.

On the 11th of October 1859, Mr. Hascall was united in marriage to Miss Ellen C. Warner, a native of Pittsford, Vermont. She is one of the eight children born of the marriage of Nathan S. and Sarah G. (Powers) Warner, six of whom are still living. The parents were both born in Vermont and there the mother passed away. The father, however, was living in Umatilla county at the time of his death.

Mr. and Mrs. Hascall have had five children, the eldest of whom, Nettie S. is now deceased. The others in order of birth are as follows: Fred W.; A.E., who is mentioned elsewhere in this work; James H.; and Eugene M.

The parents are both members of the Baptist church and Mr. Hascall votes the Republican ticket and during the period of his residence here has served on the local school board. Mr. and Mrs. Hascall are most estimable people and are held in high regard in the community where they have made their home for more than a quarter of a century.

Durham, Me., Oct. 6 (Special) - Durham lost one of her most respected citizens in the death of George H. Hascall, Tuesday evening, his age being 70 years. He had been active in the life of the town for many years, acting as chorister for the Congregational church in town and also as chorister for Androscoggin Ponoma Grange at which he always was a faithful attendant. He also had been active in the Good Templars, having been a member of Victory Lodge of Lisbon Falls for the last 30 years.

He kept up his interest in the reunions held by that band and seldom failed to attend this gathering. In Durham he also belonged to Tyler's band.

A Patron of Husbandry he threw his best energies into furthering the work of Rowes Corner grange, where he held the office of master with dignity and efficiency. He was fond of grange work and had many friends among Pomona members. His face will be especially missed as chorister for this organization at its monthly meetings throughout the county.

Mr. Hascall was born in Pittsford, Vt., son of Deacon William C. and Finnette Hascall. His brothers living are Charles D., who is in Oregon; James A. of Auburn, William H. S. who is a missionary in Burma and Ralph J. Hascall of Lewiston. The family moved to Durham in 1862 from Vermont. They brought with them the traditions of purposeful lives among their forfathers, as the grandfather, Rev. Daniel Hascall, was a Baptist minister and was instrumental in founding Colgate University.

In 1867, Mr. Hascall married Jennie S. Dyer, daughter of Richard and Caroline Dyer. She died in 1879, and later he married Hattie H. Merrill, daughter of James and Sarah Merrill, who survives. George and Jennie had no children.

National Cyclopaedia of American Biography

Hascall, William Hosmer Shailer, missionary was born at Pittsford Vt., Dec 30 1850, son of William Carey and Finette (Storm) Hascall.  He was descended from Roger Hascall, who came to America early in the seventeenth century. From Roger and his wife Elizabeth Hardy the line continued through their son John and his wife Patina (sic) Soule; their son John and his wife Mary Squire;  their son Joseph and his wife Catherine Green; their son Joseph and his wife Alice Fitch; and their son Daniel Hascall, founder of Hamilton Theological Seminary, now part of Colgate University, and grandfather of William H. S. Hascall. He was educated in grade and high schools and learned the printing trade.

In 1872 he was appointed printer to the mission founded by Adoniram Judson in Rangoon, Burma, where he learned the Burmese alphabet and then set the type for a new edition of the "Catechism" by Mrs. Judson. Eye strain caused by the difficulty of proofreading Asiatic characters compelled him to discontinue the work in 1875. He was then appointed a missionary eveangelist and joined the Haswells, missionaries at Maulmein, whose deaths left Mr. Hascall in charge of the Burma, Talain, and Karen work in that district as well as in Tavoy and Mergui. He became superintendent of the boys' school at Maulmein and opened a boarding department. In 1877 he was ordained a minister of the Baptist church.

His wife's illness through jungle fever obliged him in 1880 to return to America, and while at home he studied at the Newton Thoelogical Institute and for eighteen months was pastor of the Baptist church at Farmington Me. In 1883 Mr. Hascall returned to Burma and was stationed at Henzada until 1888, when he was transferred to Sagaing, only recently taken over by the British, where he erected the mission buildings and organized the church and school. Famil sickness again causing him to return to America in 1889, he became assistant pastor at Fall River, Mass., remaining until 1896, was then pastor of the Central Avenue Church at Dover, N.H., for three years, and then had charge of a new church in Harlem, which was then a New York City mission and which he organized as the Harlem Baptist Church.

In 1903 he returned to Burma, first serving as missionary at Thonze, and in 1907 went to Bassein, where he reorganized and enlarged the station, increased the native preaching force and made many conversions. Once more he returned home, attending en route the World's Missionary Conference in Edinburgh as a delegate, but was again in Burma in 1912, and for five years ministered in the delta of the Irrawady, in tent meetings, in visits to important cities and towns, and in the hills preparing tracts and translating hymns. In 1917 he finally returned to America. He was the author of several tracts, including one on "Cause and Effect," a subject of intense interest to Budhists, a geography for use in schools, a Concordance of the Bible which Judson translated into Burmese, and a Bible Cyclopedia which was published shortly before his last illness. He was a member of the Sons of the Revolution. Mr. Hascall was married at Maulmein, Burma, June 12, 1877, to Emma Augusta Chace of Providence, R.I., then a teacher in the Rangoon Baptist College, who was his constant companion in his many years of Christian service, and he had four children, William Chace, Charles Shailer, Theodore Conrad, and Stephen Hardin Clark Hascall.
