Genesee County MI Archives Biographies.....Thompson, Ermina C. W. 1824 - ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/copyright.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/mi/mifiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Joy Fisher [email protected] June 19, 2007, 10:30 pm Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) MRS. ERMINA C. W. THOMPSON is a representative pioneer of her sex in Genesee County, and resides in Grand Blanc. She is a native of Washington County, Vt., and was there born March 5, 1824, her parents being Samuel and Keziah (Green) Wilson, the former a native of New Hampshire and the latter of the old Bay State. Her ancestors on the paternal side were of Scotch-Irish stock and her mother's parents were of English ancestry. The first representative of the family to settle in this country came here over two hundred years ago. When our subject was nine years old she emigrated with her parents to New York State and there lived for several years in the Genesee Valley. After the death of her mother she with the other members of the family removed to Genesee County, this State, and settled in Atlas Township, making their first home in an humble cottage in the midst of the woods. They broke the land and made the farm yield them a living; it is now in the possession of Mrs. Thompson's brother, John A. Wilson, her father having died in 1861. Mrs. Thompson was one of four children whose names are as follows: Caroline, Clarissa, our subject, and John A. Mrs. Thompson was reared and educated for the most part in this State and also attended school in Perry, N. Y. After she had finished her studies she engaged for several years in teaching. May 9, 1848, she was united in marriage with Caleb S. Thompson, who was a native of Worcester County, Mass., and there born April 23, 1805. He was a son of Washington and Folly Thompson, natives of the same State. He, like our subject, removed in childhood with his parents to New York, and was there reared to manhood, receiving a fair education. In 1829 he removed to Genesee County, this State, and became a resident of what is now known as Grand Blanc Township. He took up a tract of Government land and became one of the early settlers of this district. The greater portion of his life was spent in agricultural pursuits. In 1870 Mr. Thompson with his family removed to Grand Blanc village and there made his home until 1883. He was a man of sterling worth and vital energy, respected by all who knew him. Prior to his marriage with our subject he had been united to Clarinda Perry, and they were the parents of two children, Susan and Rush. Unto Mr. Thompson and our subject, one daughter was born, Clara G, who is now the wife of Alexander McCall. During his career Mr. Thompson served in various official positions. He was both Treasurer and Clerk of Grand Blanc Township and his advice was ever sought in all matters of enterprise, he being regarded as the most public-spirited citizen of the district. In his death the county lost one of her best citizens. He was a Republican in politics and a very strong advocate.of temperance. His honor and integrity in business dealings as well as in private life were recognized by all. In business life he was very successful and at his decease left a valuable estate which his widow now manages with a remarkable degree of executive ability. He was the contractor and builder of what is now familiarly known as the Holly Plank Road between Grand Blanc and Holly. While not a churchman, he always contributed generously toward the support of churches and the spread of Christianity. His interest in educational matters was paramount and he served as Inspector of schools for many years. He had also been connected with the Genesee Agricultural Society. Mrs. Thompson is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and is also greatly interested in temperance work. The many friends of Mr. Thompson, in whose hearts his memory is ever held dear, will be pleased to notice his lithographic portrait elsewhere.

All rights reserved. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/copyright.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/mi/mifiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Joy Fisher [email protected] June 19, 2007, 10:27 pm Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) HEMAN PALMERLEE. Hadley Township has its full complement of families whose ability, intelligence and character make them worthy of representation in this RECORD, and we are pleased to present here the name just given as a representative of one of these families. Mr. Palmerlee is a farmer residing one-half mile east of the village of Hadley, Lapeer County, and was born in Cattaraugus County, N. Y., in 1832. His parents, Asa and Lucy (Seward) Palmerlee, were natives of Connecticut and New York, and the mother is a daughter of Col. Stephen Seward. It was in 1852 that our subject came to Lapeer County,and began life for himself with only a small amount of capital. He is now the favored possessor of a beautiful tract of land consisting of a little more than one hundred acres on section 3, of Hadley Township, where a fine array of the best and most commodious farm buildings may be seen. The dwelling, barns and other structures are substantial and convenient and accompanied by neat fences, orchards and all the appointments that speak of a good farm and home. These improvements have been made since the purchase of this farm by Mr. Palmerlee in 1859. In the year just mentioned our subject won for his wife an estimable lady who has proven her ability by making a cozy and attractive home for her family while at the same time she has taken a part in the kindly associations and benevolent deeds of the neighborhood. She bore the maiden name of Elmina Kelly, but before her marriage with Mr. Palmerlee was the widow of Charles Flack. She was born in Monroe County, N. Y., but her father brought her to Lapeer County, when quite young. Immediately after marriage Mr. and Mrs. Palmerlee took up their abode on the farm near Hadley and here were born three children: Charles E,, who is a resident of Lapeer ; Mary B., who but recently became the wife of Mark Brown and Mark L. who is still single. Our subject has not at any time taken a leading part in the public affairs of the neighborhood, having contented himself with discharging the private duties of citizenship in an honorable manner but he is thoroughly alive to the public problems of the day and is an intelligent observer of public movements. He is an independent Republican.

(1892) ALBERT H. PATTERSON is the editor of the Almont Herald, which is published in that city and is the agricultural organ of the surrounding country as well as the medium of the current news of the day of the town proper and is also the advertising medium for commercial matters. He was born in Welland County, Ontario, June 22, 1840. His parents were formerly residents of Niagara County, N. Y. As a lad he had the advantages to be derived at good district schools but was* early obliged to begin the battle of life for himself and entered a store, which he left at the age of fourteen in order to learn the printing business in the office of the Niagara (Ontario) Chronicle. After a three years' apprenticeship he went to St. Catharine's, Ontario, in 1857 where he remained until 1865. In the meantime, June 3, 1862, Mr. Patterson was married to Sarah J. Darby and soon after moved to Welland, Ontario, where they remained j until the fall of 1868, when they went to Mendota, Ill. They, however, returned to Welland in the summer of 1870 and in the fall of the same year our subject went to Springfield, Ill., where he was engaged in the State printing office for four years. In the fall of 1874 he came to Almont and in January of 1875 established the Almont Herald which he still continues to publish. This journal is so thoroughly well known in the community and vicinity of Almont that it is needless to speak of it in laudatory terms. It is a free, straightforward and pure-minded journal that one need not hesitate to bring into the family. In addition to Mr. Patterson's editorial work, he has been Township Clerk and is a member of the Village Council. At the present time he is Village Clerk and a member of the School Board. He has five living children. He has also lost five children, there having been four sons and one daughter.
