Notes for Joseph PYLE
pyle famile book-pg 83
Joseph was a leather worker and went into partnership with hisbrother, Cyrus. Cyrus withdrew so his two sons, Frank and Fredrick, and Joseph's son-Willard were added to the firm. It was called the C & J Pyle Co. Leather Manufacturers. Joseph was a birthright Friend, but in 1840 he joined the St. Paul Methodist Episcopal Church. He served many offices in that church and in 1883 the Quarterly Conference, by unanimous vote, licensed him a local preacher. Feeling he was not called to preach, he held the papers for one year, and requested the Conference to relieve him of that responsibility as he
had too many duties in the church to perform. He was a Republican in politics, and was elected to the City Council.
