From Biography of Charles Sullings Kingsley from The History of Tioga County, 1897.

"Charles Sullings Kingsley was born in Pittsford, Vermont, June 13, 1844, a son of Ralph R. and Sarah (Sullings) Kingsley, both natives of Vermont and descendants of prominent New England families. His father was born June 9, 1810 and his mother in 1815. In 1847 the family came to Troy, Bradford county Pennsylvania, where Mr. Kingsley engaged in the tannery business as a member of the firm of Bowen & Kingsley, with which he was connected ten years. In 1865 he came to Mansfield, Tioga county, where purchased an interest in the John W. Kohn tannery. Three years later he bought out his partner, and was connected with the business up to his death, December 26, 1893. His widow is yet living, at the ripe age of eighty-one years. They were the parents of three children: Francis E., Charles S., and Flora, all residents of Mansfield. The subject of this sketch was educated in the common schools and at the Collegiate Institute, in Towanda, Pennsylvania. February 25, 1864, he enlisted in the Third Pennsylvania Artillery and was honorably discharged from the service at Philadelphia, November 9, 1865. Most of the time he was stationed at Fortress Monroe, and the last nine months of his term he was a clerk in the adjutant's office. Returning to Mansfield he engaged in the tannery business with his father, the firm being R.R. Kingsley & Son until the fall of 1868, when it was changed to C.S. Kingsley, its present title. September 12, 1872, Mr. Kingsley married Jennie Linn [sic] Bailey, a daughter of Benjamon and Clarissa (Johnson) Bailey, and has three children, viz: Harry B., Ralph R., and Kate S. In politics, Mr. Kingsley is a Republican, and has filled offices of burgess, councilman, school directory and treasurer of the school board. He is a member of General Mansfield Post, No. 48, G.A.R., and is one of the well-known, enterprising citizens of Mansfield.".
