JUDGE ISAAC SCHOOLED, a successful farmer and stock raiser and an ex-county judge of Jasper county, now deceased,
was a native of Vermont, who moved to Ohio in the year 1818, being a pioneer of that state, living in Allen county
and afterwards in Knox county. His wife was Sarah Schooler, born in New Jersey. In 1857 he moved with his family
to Jasper county, Missouri, settling on a fine tract of land along Dry Fork creek, some nine miles northeast of
Carthage, on which is a large spring, the stream from which furnishes much of the water to Dry Fork: the Schooler
spring is known all over Jasper county. The farming and stock raising industry of Mr. Schooler and his sons was
quite extensive, they some years having six hundred acres in wheat, besides raising large herds of cattle. Isaac
Schooled and his two sons, Hons. John N. and William R. Schooler, were strong Union men during the Civil war, and
their united influence has been potent in public affairs ever since. Isaac Schooler was a member of the county
court during the years 1879 and 1880. His son John N. represented the eastern district of Jasper in the legislature
for the years 1883-1884, and the other son, William R. Schooler, has since served as a member of the county court
for four years from 1897 to 1901.
