Harry L. Coleman, son of Herman and Sarah (Trent) Coleman, was born September 1, 1874, in Johnstown, where he attended the public schools until the age of thirteen. He then found employment with the Johnson Company, with whom he learned the moulder's trade, and remained with the company (now the Lorain Steel Company) to the present time, being now the holder of a lucrative and responsible position. Like his brother, he adheres to and advocates the principles of the Republican party, giving to the organization the aid of his vote and influence. He is a member of the Presbyterian church.

Mr. Coleman married Louvora Lomison, by whom he has had the following children: Mildred L. Jean T., and Miriam St. Claire, deceased.
