JOHN P. HICKS, liveryman and farmer, P. O. Cambridgeboro, was born in Cambridge Township, this county; son of
William and Mary (Fullerton) Hicks, natives of Pennsylvania (both deceased). They were the parents of four children,
of whom John P. is the third. Our subject received a common school education, and at the age of seventeen engaged
to learn shoe making, at which trade he worked sixteen years. By industrious habits and economy, he saved enough
money to enable him to purchase a farm of ninety acres in Cambridge Township, this county. He owned a livery stable
four years previous to 1876, when he moved to his present farm. Four years later he returned to Cambridge, and
again entered the livery business, and at present has six horses. He deals more or less extensively in horses,
buying and selling. Mr. Hicks was married in 1877 to Lorena Farlin, a native of this county. He has served the
people of this township one year as Assessor. In politics he is a Democrat.
