John Hoar was a well known pioneer of the copper regions. He was born in Cornwall, England, and came first to the Lake Superior mining region in the interests of an English mining company, in 1856. He then tried coa! mining in Pennsylvania for two years, after which he returned to the Northern Peninsula, where he bought mining interests with E. D. Hendricks, and later established a business on the same site in Houghton now occupied by Hodgson Brothers & Hoar, buying Mr. Hendricks' interest and taking his brother, Richard M. Hoar, into partnership. The business, under the firm name of John Hoar & Brother, was uninterrupted until the death of John Hoar in 1884, at the age of 67 years.

"Be very careful not to attribute members of this family to Jacob Hore b.1787 (son of William) who is a first cousin, but is incorrectly listed as our ancestor on many pedigrees. "
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not merge with Jacob Hore b. Aug 1787. He was the son of William.
Jacob Hore b.Aug 1788 (son of John) married Gertrude Martyn.
Jacob Hore b.Aug 1787(son of William) did NOT marry Gertrude Martyn. Do not confuse the tree by merging them.
John Hore b.1763 married Elizabeth Nicholls, not Jane Tregonnan. John Hore b.1788 married Jane Tregonnan. Attached are photos of the actual baptism and marriage records.
My [unknown manager of this geni website] mother and uncle accidentally entered the wrong Jacob in the Hoar Mausoleum family tree and now many Hoar trees carry forward the error. It is an easy error because they have the same name and similar birth dates and locations.
The proof of who was grouped as a family is found in the aggregate of a variety of English census and parish records. The census records state who lived with whom in Cornwall as a family to reveal to us the correct family associations.
