PEMBERTON RANDALL
In his book entitled "The Wonderful Tent" Rev. D. A. Randall, D. D. is written, and from which we learn that "Rev. Pemberton Randall was oneof seven children born to James Randall and his wife Joanna Pemberton.The parents were able to bestow upon their children little less thanthose inestimable bonus -- good blood and Christian influences. TheRandalls originated in bonnie Scotland, in the stirring annals of whichcountry the family name is not obscure. The Pembertons sprang from sturdyEnglish stock, possessed of both ability and nobility. Joanna was adirect descendant of Ebenezer Pemberton, D. D., one of the earlydistinguished pastors of Old South Church, Boston. Both father andmother were native New Englanders."
Rev. Pemberton Randall departed this life at the home of his daughter, with whom be and his wife were living, Mrs. S. A. R. McGeah, inMinneapolis, Minnesota, at about 3 o'clock on Sunday morning January 4,1891, being a little past 81 years of age. He was born in Lebanon,Connecticut. In early life, in fact in the Autumn of 1826, he and hisbrother, Rev. Austin Randall, D.D., embraced the Christian religion in arevival meeting held by Rev. David Marks, a Free Will Baptist revivalistwho came to a neighboring church and began a series of meetings. Inaddition to attending the meetings for some three weeks, these brothersalone or in concert, engaged daily in scripture readings, praying or inmeditation. Both made a public profession of religion and on the daybefore Christmas were, by Elder Haskel, pastor of the local church,baptized in the Canandaigua Lake. Pemberton adopted the doctrine of therevivalist, and in due time became a cultivated and conscientiousminister of the Free Will Church. Soon after his conversion he removedto Ohio, and after receiving a common school education, he pursued aclassical course for two years in Geauga Seminary. In 1840 he wasordained by Elder Cyrna Coltrin and Warner Beebe. His labors have beenwith churches in northern Ohio. He has been an able preacher, hissermons being clear, logical and strong arguments in favor of thereligion of Christ. Young ministers have always considered it a greatprivilege to listen to him preaching, and although over 80 years ofage his mental powers were clear and strong, and the Free Will Baptistquarterly meetings were often blessed with his presents and counsel. InFebruary 1834 he was joined in marriage to Maria T. Beebe, who died inFebruary, 1839, and in 1840, he was married to Sarah C. Foster. He wasthe father of ten children, five of whom and his wife survive him. Hewas regarded as one of the strongest intellectual and Scripturalpreachers of the denomination to which he belonged, and of which he was aworthy and honored member. His membership was transferred from Spencer,Ohio, to the Free Will Baptist church of Minneapolis, Minnesota where hiswife is also a member. He was able to converse intelligently to the last,and died trusting in Jesus for the life upon which he has entered and theimmortality of the glory world.
His remains arrived in Medina Wednesday morning, accompanied by his wife and son-in-law, Mr. J. A. McGeah, and funeral services Thursday afternoonat 2 p.m. in Medina in the Baptist church, conducted by Rev. O. H. Damonand assisted by resident and other ministers of their denominations.
"The Medina County Gazette-Obituary" on Friday, January 1891 (Randall Archives)
Rev. Pemberton Randall, farmer and minister is among the acceptable and efficient ministers who, for
many years past, have proclaimed the glad tidings of the Gospel, and endeavored with anxious solicitude to administer to the spiritual needsof sinful humanity in this county.
1807, October 6: He was born in Lebanon. Township, New London County, Connecticut, of a family of three sons and four daughters, he being theeldest of his brothers and the second of the number born. His parentswere James and Joanna (Pemberton) Randall. His place of birth was inChatham, Connecticut, in December
1778, his wife being born in August, two years later, in the same state. The Randalls are of Scotch and
the Pembertons of English descent. Mr. Randall's father was a blacksmith, which trade he followed nearly his entire life. Oursubject's early life was spent in the agricultural districts, and whilehe attended school to some extent, his hands were not strangers to theuse of the implements of husbandry. About the age of 20, he embarked forhimself, having obtained education sufficient to enable him to teach the" young idea," which vocation he followed during the winter, and workingby the month on the farm, $10 being his compensation per month at thetime he embarked in the profession. Until 31 years of age, he was thusalternately employed. Three years later, he married Maria T. Beebe, whowas born in Ontario County, New York and then moved westward to thiscounty, locating in Granger Township. Being impressed that it was hisduty to enter the ministry, and the better to qualify himself
for that important position, he attended Geauga College, and studied the languages until he obtained satisfactory knowledge of the same. Uponhis return, came to Medina, where he had the pastoral charge of theFree-Will Baptist Church at that place for some time, and since haspreached regularly up to 1878, and at regular intervals up to the presenttime. He has been instrumental in doing much good,
and through his efforts many have been caused to turn from the error of their ways and found comfort and salvation through the atoning merits ofthe Redeemer. Mr. Randall's father moved to this county in 1838, andsettled in Granger; finally moved to Summit County, where he died in1849; his wife survived him until 1854. Of the brothers of our subjectliving are D. P. Randall, now of Sharon Township, and David A., who isthe author of that interesting work entitled "The Handwriting of God inSinai and the Holy Land." He resides in Cleveland. One sister is inMedina Township, Catherine, now Mrs. W. H. Witter. To Mr. Randall havebeen born ten children; but five of the number are living Theodore B.;Thomas P.; Maria T., now Mrs. G. 0. Chapman; Sarah A., Mrs. Mc Kay, andLydia B. T. B. is now teaching in this county; Thomas P. is in LincolnCounty, Kansas also Mrs. Chapman; Mrs. Mc Kay is in Cleveland; Lydia B.at home. Mr. Randall has always been a man of great industry, neverdesiring to be idle. Early in life, he took up the trade of his father,and has had for many years on his place a shop, in which he spends muchof his time in mending and keeping in repair such implements and tools asmay need such attention upon his farm.
Though never much interested in political matters, yet he has always been Republican in sentiment. He sent three of his sons to defend the flag ofour Union. David A. died in the service; Theodore B. served three yearsin Company K, 8th 0.V.I. Thomas P. was in the 166th, and re-enlistedand served until the close of the war. Mr. Randall's youngest son metwith a tragic death by the discharge of a gun in his own hands inDecember, 1879, while in Kansas. He was 23 years of age.
