William McKinley Sr. (November 15, 1807 – November 24, 1892) was an American manufacturer. He was a pioneer of the iron industry in eastern Ohio as well as the father of President William McKinley.[3]
James McKinley (1783–1847)[1] and Mary Rose McKinley[2]
He was born to James S. McKinley and Mary Rose in Pine Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, on November 15, 1807. The second of thirteen children, he moved to Lisbon, Ohio, in 1809.[4] Working in the iron business, as had his father, he operated foundries in New Lisbon, Niles, Poland, and finally Canton.[5] He married Nancy Allison Campbell on January 6, 1829. His parents, James S. and Mary Rose McKinley, both died in South Bend, Indiana, on August 20, 1847.[citation needed]
McKinley Sr. was a Whig and later a Republican party member, and an "ardent advocate" for a protective tariff.[6] McKinley kept a Bible, the works of Dante Alighieri, and Shakespeare with him consistently and used what little time of leisure was allocated from his work to read.[7]
He died in Canton, Ohio, on November 24, 1892, at the age of 85.[8] He had 8 other children:
