Thank you JHicks for the link to his father George Root.

Also he and his wife Laura and 8 children are listed in census records of Tallmadge, Summitt County, Ohio. That shows him born abt. 1802 in New York.

Recently I found a death notice for Hiram Root in the November 19, 1858 issue of the Cleveland Daily Leader. It states "Died, In Franklin Mills, Ohio, Nov. 5th, Mr. Hiram Root, aged 56 years." This confirms a death date of Nov. 5, 1858 that I have found for Hiram at other sources.
Hiram?s birth date is May 15, 1801. The source is a letter written by his nephew, stating birth and death dates all members of this Root family. He was born at Chazy, Clinton, NY.
I know that the 1801 birth year means he was 57 at his death. I am inclined to think he was age 57, but reported in the paper as 56.
Hiram Root is my gr-gr-gr-grandfather
