Robert W. RUBART, s/o William & Elizabeth (PRATT) RUBART, Jr. of OH, b 11 Oct 1860 Hardin Co., OH, m May 1886 to Ida STEPHENS.
(Source: Portrait and Biographical Record of Auglaize, Logan and Shelby Counties, OH, Chapman Bros., Chicago, 1892, pp. 339-340)

"R.W. RUBART, editor of the Huntsville Gazette, was born in Hardin County, Ohio, on the 11th of October, 1860, and is a son of William and Elizabeth (Pratt) Rubart, both natives of the Buckeye State, the mother born in Findlay. The grandfather, William, Sr. was a native Virginian and one of the earliest settlers of Ohio, coming to this State when Indians were plentiful. He settled in Logan County, about three miles west of Belle Centre, on what is now known as the Herrod Farm, and, erecting a log cabin in the woods, began his career as an early settler. He delighted in hunting and brought down many a deer with his old flint-lock guns. He improved a farm, but in his old age he and his wife, went to lived with a son, Isaac, in Hardin County, Ohio, and there he passed away; she died near Belle Centre several years since, at the advanced age of eighty-seven years. They reared two children, Isaac and William.

William Rubart was early trained to the duties of the farm, but also learned the wagon-making trade, which he followed at Belle Centre until three years ago (1889). After this, he went to Muncie, Ind., and there conducts a large establishment at the present time. He is an energetic, wide-awake man and one universally respected. By his marrieage to Miss Pratt, he became the father of seven children, who are named in the order of their birth as follows: Robert W., Amanda, William E., Belle, Maud, Martie, and Nellie (deceased). The father and mother have both been members of the Disciples Church for a number of years, and he is a stanch advocate of the principles of the Republican party.

The original of this sketch was reared in Belle Centre, Ohio, and received a good practical education at Silver Creek, Hardin County. He began learning the printer's trade in 1877, on the Rushsylvania Star, at Rushsylvania, and continued there eighteen months, after which he established the Belle Centre Gazette. This he conducted for three years, after which he sold out and started the Belle Center Bulletin, which he carried on until 1889. After this, he located in Huntsville and started the Huntsville Gazette, which is now thoroughly established and the leading paper in the county. It is a neat six-column folio, and its crisp and trenchant editorials command an ever-widening area of circulation, while they carry with them that weight and authority which a clear, calm and intelligent judgment must always secure. The Gazette is independent in politics and has a paying circulation of six hundred subscribers. The office is well equipped and has a large patronage of job work, not only here but from towns over the surrounding country.

Mr. Rubart selected a wife in the person of Miss Ida Stephens, a native of Hardin County, Ohio, and their nuptials were celebrated in May of 1886. Two children are the fruits of this union, Charles and Pearl. Mr. Rubart is a member of the Disciples Church and a liberal contributor to all worthy enterprises. He is an ardent Republican in politics. His paper is one of the brightest and best papers published in the county and he is one of the prominent citizens."
