Webster Co.
H. SOKOLSKI of Webster County, was born March 10, 1834, in Poland. In 1861
he came to New York, and there remained three years; he then removed to
Brown County, Ohio, and engaged in merchandising three years, after which,
he went to Huntington, W. Va., and then came to Madisonville, where he was
engaged in merchandising seven years. In 1878 he removed to Clay, where he
has since been engaged in merchandising, doing a business of about $20,000
a year. When in Madisonville, his annual business was about $15,000. On
his arrival in America he had but 20 cents left; he has now placed himself
in comfortable circumstances, which he has attained by strict attention to
business and judicious management. He thinks his life is an example of
what can be done in the country of his adoption. He was married in 1876 to
Rosa Blustean, of Columbus, Ind. This union has been blessed with four
children, three now living - two sons and one daughter: Abe, born November
12, 1877; Yetta, September 19, 1879, and Aaron, January 29, 1883.
