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.
