Adaline Hohf Beery (sometimes misspelled Berry; December 20, 1859 – February 24, 1929) was an American author, newspaper and magazine editor, songbook compiler, as well as a hymnwriter. Born into a Pennsylvania Dutch community, her first job after graduating from Mount Morris College in Illinois was as a compositor in a printing office. She served as the editor of The Golden Dawn magazine and The Young Disciple child's paper; compiled a song-book, Gospel Chimes; and was employed by the Brethren Publishing House.

Early years

Adaline Hohf was born in Hanover, Pennsylvania, December 20, 1859. She was of mixed ancestry. Her father, Michael Hohf (1821–1881), was of Dutch extraction, and her mother, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Bucher (1821–1914), was of Swiss ancestry. Her siblings were Emanuel (1853–1864) and Martha (1864–1948). Born in a Pennsylvania Dutch community, the Pennsylvania German language was the first she learned to speak. She removed with her parents, at the age of four years, to Frederick, Maryland,{{sfn|Statler|Fisher|1959|p=68}} where she spent her childhood days amid the rural sights and sounds along the Linganore Creek. In 1870, her family removed to Iowa, where, as a school-girl in her teens, she first attempted verse.{{sfn|Willard|Livermore|1893|p=79}}{{sfn|Moulton|1893|p=27}}

Career

A talent for composition began its development about that time, and sketches from her pen, in the form of both poetry and prose, found their way into the local papers. She gave no particular evidence of a tendency to rhyme until 1884, at which time she resided in Illinois, when the death of a friend called forth a memorial tribute, which received such commendation from personal friends as to encourage her to continue to work in verse, and poems were frequently written by her afterward. She completed the academic course of Mount Morris College in 1882,{{sfn|Kable Brothers|1900|p=104}} and about six months after graduation entered a printing office as compositor. She worked at the case more than four years and in May, 1885, undertook the editing of The Golden Dawn,{{sfn|Brethren Publishing House|1908|p=223}} an excellent but short-lived magazine published in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania.{{sfn|Willard|Livermore|1893|p=79}}{{sfn|Moulton|1893|p=27}}

On June 20, 1888, she married William Beery (1852–1956), an instructor in vocal music, and soon after rendered him valuable assistance in compiling an excellent song-book, Gospel Chimes, writing hymns and some music for it. She and her husband were located in Huntingdon, where she edited a child's paper known as The Young Disciple.{{sfn|Willard|Livermore|1893|p=79}}{{sfn|Moulton|1893|p=27}} Later, the husband and wife worked together in the Brethren Publishing House in Elgin, Illinois.[1]

Personal life

Her family consisted of a son, Leon Felix Beery, born in February 1891,{{sfn|Willard|Livermore|1893|p=79}}{{sfn|Moulton|1893|p=27}} and a daughter, Judith Garber, born in 1897.[1] Beery died in February 24, 1929, in Kane, Illinois. She was buried at Bluff City Cemetery in Elgin.[2]
