Eugene Pardee was born on October 15th, 1814 in Marcellus, New York to Allen Pardee and Phoebe Foster.[https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/229042578/eugene-e.-pardee?_gl=1*17cskyd*_ga*MTgyNTkwMTI5NS4xNjU5MDI2MTc1*_ga_4QT8FMEX30*MTY1OTExODAyNS41LjEuMTY1OTEyMjA3OC4w] He was a renowned Prosecuting Attorney of Wayne County who lived in Wooster and practiced all throughout his life. He is also well-known for being a vocal [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolitionism abolitionist] lawyer and participating in the [[Underground Railroad]] operations in [[Wayne County, Ohio|Wayne County]].

The Pardees moved into Wadsworth in Medina County, Ohio in 1831. Eugene Pardee then set off to the village academy, where he was studying to become a teacher. However, he had found his passion in studying law and was under the superintendency of Van R. Humphrey in Summit County, Ohio. He was admitted to the Ohio bar in 1835 and practiced for a while in Medina County, before coming to Wooster.

Very soon after coming to Wooster, he was elected as a Prosecuting Attorney of Wayne County by the Democratic Party. He was re-elected and after serving for 4 years in that position, he went back to his private law office. Later in his career, he pursued for higher positions and was successful in achieving a number of them. He joined the Republican Party at its foundation and was an elector upon the Fremont and Dayton ticket in the 1856 Presidential election. He also served as the Deputy US Revenue Assessor in 1862.

The Pardee house is considered to be a significant remainder of the Wayne County [[Underground Railroad]] (see Current Preservation Efforts) operations, and one of the very few historically accurate establishments remaining in Wooster.

Every biography of Pardee mentions him as an outspoken abolitionist, who was not afraid to express his opinions and defend anti-slavery policies. He would often debate against people defending pro-slavery in the courtroom. He was also stated as being a member of the abolitionist party (also referred to as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Party_(United_States,_1840) Liberty Party]). Like many other abolitionists, he joined the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Soil_Party Free Soil Party] in 1848, and later the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)#:~:text=The%20Republican%20Party%2C%20also%20referred,rival%20of%20the%20Democratic%20Party.

Biographical Sketches

Eugene Pardee was born on October 15th, 1814 in Marcellus, New York to Allen Pardee and Phoebe Foster.[1] He was a renowned Prosecuting Attorney of Wayne County who lived in Wooster and practiced all throughout his life. He is also well-known for being a vocal abolitionist lawyer and participating in the Underground Railroad operations in Wayne County.

Background

The Pardees moved into Wadsworth in Medina County, Ohio in 1831. Eugene Pardee then set off to the village academy, where he was studying to become a teacher. However, he had found his passion in studying law and was under the superintendency of Van R. Humphrey in Summit County, Ohio. He was admitted to the Ohio bar in 1835 and practiced for a while in Medina County, before coming to Wooster.

Life in Wooster

Very soon after coming to Wooster, he was elected as a Prosecuting Attorney of Wayne County by the Democratic Party. He was re-elected and after serving for 4 years in that position, he went back to his private law office. Later in his career, he pursued for higher positions and was successful in achieving a number of them. He joined the Republican Party at its foundation and was an elector upon the Fremont and Dayton ticket in the 1856 Presidential election. He also served as the Deputy US Revenue Assessor in 1862.

(For more information, see History of the Lawyers of Wayne County, Ohio by Benjamin Douglass- can be accessed through the Genealogy collection.)

Abolitionism

The Pardee house is considered to be a significant remainder of the Wayne County Underground Railroad (see Current Preservation Efforts) operations, and one of the very few historically accurate establishments remaining in Wooster. And it is rightfully so, as Eugene Pardee played a big role in the operation. Every biography of Pardee mentions him as an outspoken abolitionist, who was not afraid to express his opinions and defend anti-slavery policies. He would often debate against people defending pro-slavery in the courtroom. He was also stated as being a member of the abolitionist party (also referred to as the Liberty Party). Like many other abolitionists, he joined the Free Soil Party in 1848, and later the Republican Party in 1854.
