Runk 1899 Article:
"John Caleb Voshell grew up on the home farm near Dover, DE, and remained at home until he attained his majority. He attended the public schools of Dover HD during the winter terms and spent the summer months and his leisure time working on the home farm. He had, however, and inquiring mind and good natural ability, and endeavored by careful reading to educate himself. In his twenty-first year, Mr. Voshell took charge of the almshouse farm, which he cultivated for three years. He afterwards spent some time at Magnolia, and a year and a half resided at Wyoming, DE. After his marriage, Mr. Voshell sold his property and removed to his present home, the James Green Mill property, which he purchased at the administrator's sale. As a boy, Mr. Voshell's hobby was milling. He used to build mills of cornstalks, and always declared that when he grew up he would be a miller.
His wife had built the house and had managed the mill during the eight years which had passed since the death of her first husband. After her marriage to Mr. Voshell, she went to the mill with him day after day, showing him all about the business and assisting him in every possible way.
Mr. Voshell was a poor boy, but by industry and frugality, he became a successful farmer and landowner. He is a stanch Republican, and in 1896 was nominated as inspector, but was defeated. Mr. Voshell is a member of the I.O.R.M., of Magnolia, DE; the Jr. O.U.A.M. of Camden, DE; and the Patrons of Husbandry.
John C Probate of 1929-1930 has Hiram R voshell as one of the administrators
