W. J. Hornblower came to Ceres from New York city in the winter, or early spring of 1847. His son, William E., had come to Ceres a number of years before, and had settled at that time at Main Settlement, where his home is at the present time. W. J. Hornblower bought the place on lower King's Run, still known by his name, and built there the summer after he came. His family then consisted of his wife and two young daughters, the younger still not in her teens" The older, became in 1856 the wife of G. N. Hackett, and was the mother of Dr. G. W. Hackett, of Portville, and of H. N. Hackett, of Glenn. She died in 1877. The younger daughter of these two, Emily, married Andrew Hayward, and died several years after, leaving one daughter a few weeks old, which was adopted by her mother's oldest sister, Mrs. William Lanphere, who with her husband had followed her parents to Ceres. This child, long since grown to womanhood, is now the wife of W. Barry, of Texas. Mrs. W. J. Hornblower died in 1862. Anna, W. J. Hornblower's oldest daughter, married William Lanphere. He died at Ceres in 1862.
After some years she married Mathew Green, of Little Genesee, and where she lived many years. She died in 1892, while on a visit to her daughter in Texas. Mrs. Green was a lovely woman; indeed the whole of W.J. Hornblower's family were a valuable addition to the society of Ceres, and were sincerely mourned by all who knew them.
