A standard history of Lorain County, Ohio : an authentic narrative of the past, with particular attention to the modern era in the commercial, industrial, civic and social development; a chronicle of the people, with family lineage and memoirs v. 2

R. HATHAWAY, M. D. One of the oldest medical practitioners in
Lorain County is Dr. R. Hathaway of Wellington, where he has looked
after the welfare of his patients and has been both a physician and friend
to many of the leading families in that section for a period of nearly
forty years. He is held in high esteem, and has performed a service
which entitled him to the respect and admiration of his fellow men.
His birth occurred in Sandusky, Ohio, July 21, 1847, and he is of
English ancestry, the first of the name having come from England and
settled at Deposit, New York. Robert Hathaway, father of Doctor
Hathaway, was a native of New York State and in early manhood
moved to Sandusky, Ohio, where for thirty years he was in the grocery
business. Considering his opportunities, he was a very successful man,
and late in life he retired from business and spent his last years with
his son, Doctor Hathaway, in Wellington. He was a republican in
politics and a member of. the Sons of Malta. Robert Hathaway married
Sarah Porter, a native of Ohio. They were married in Sandusky. Her
father, Thomas Porter, was born in Ireland and was the oldest of fourteen
children, not a girl in the entire family. Thomas Porter was an
early settler near Sandusky, and followed the occupation of farming.
Doctor Hathaway is the only one living of two children. As a boy
he lived in Sandusky, graduated from the high school there, and in
1876 completed the course of the medical college at Cleveland. Soon after
finishing his medical course he moved to Wellington, and has been continuously
in practice. When he first located there his was almost entirely
a country practice, and it was long before the introduction of telephones
and automobiles, and he frequently rode horseback over the bottomless
roads and in all kinds of weather to attend his patients. It was by such
rugged service that he endeared himself to all the older people of that
section.
Doctor Hathaway is affiliated with the Masonic Order and in politics
is a republican.
In 1875 he married Miss Mollie Gordon of Sandusky. Airs. Hathaw7ay
died leaving three children, and the two now living are: George,
who resides in Cleveland; and Roselle, widow of H. AI. Horr and living
at Wellington. Doctor Hathaway married for his present wife Emily
Waite of Ravenna, Ohio. Mrs. Hathaway is a member of the Congregational
Church.
