(1892) ALFRED MAXAM. Our subject, who is at the present time a resident of Koylton A Township, Tuscola County, was born September 19, 1825, in Jefferson County, N. Y. He is a son of William and Martha Maxam. The former was a native of Vermont and born in 1784. He was reared on a farm and at the age of sixteen he began to learn the shoemaker's trade. He then went to New York State and while there was united in marriage to Martha Tifney, a daughter of George Tifney, who was an old Revolutionary soldier. The couple later emigrated to Summit County, Ohio, in 1834, and there both husband and wife died. In the parental family were thirteen children whose names are as follows; William T., T., Martha, Sophia, Elisha, James, Isaac, Susan, Alfred, Danfred, Joel, Ansel, Linus and Jane. Our subject was thrown upon his own resources in the way of taking care of himself when sixteen years of age, and at that time he went to work on a farm in Ohio. After being engaged there for some time he came to Michigan and located in Van Buren County, in 1845. Four years later he returned to Ohio and after four years spent in that State he again came back to Michigan. While in the Buckeye State he had learned the trade of ship calking and followed it for seven years. On returning to Michigan Alfred Maxam located in Van Buren County, and there remained for eleven years, thence coming to Tuscola County twenty-six years ago. He was married at the age of twenty-two to Mary A. Van Etten. From this union were born six children, four of whom still survive. They are Martha E., Orinda E., Orlando S., William P., Alfred L., and Luretta N; the last two are deceased. Martha is the wife of George Glazier; Orinda is the wife of Samuel Ellis. The original of our sketch has been honored by the confidence and esteem of his fellow-citizens who have elected him to various township offices. He held the offices of Township Treasurer, and Justice of the Peace for several years. The farm upon which he now lives and which comprises one hundred and sixty acres of fertile and valuable land, was at the time of his advent hither heavily timbered and wild.

Lapeer County MI Archives Biographies.....Peck, Miles G. 1833 - ************************************************ 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, 9:35 pm Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) MILES G. PECK is the son of Ira Peck, a native of Cortland County, N. Y., who was by trade a carpenter and joiner, but later in life became a farmer. His mother was Sarah Ann (Simmons) Peck, a native of the same county and State as her husband, where they were married and resided until 1835, when they came to Michigan and settled on section 11, Lapeer Township, Lapeer County, being among the first to come to this township. Among those who were their friends and neighbors at that early day only Mrs. Lumbard is now living. Our subject's father procured eighty acres of land, which was wild and almost inaccessible. He there built a log house and had only money enough to buy a yoke of steers and a cow. Afterward he was employed in building a courthouse at Lapeer and otherwise was engaged at his trade, meantime improving sixty acres of his homestead. In 1848 he purchased one hundred and sixty acres where our subject now lives. After a varied experience he died, March 14, 1864; his wife still survives, at the age of seventy-nine years. They were the parents of eight children, three of whom are now living. Mrs. Peck is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr. Peck was poitically a Whig and later became a Republican. The original of our sketch, who owns the fine farm on section 24, Lapeer Township, is the eldest of the surviving children born to his parents. He was born February 8, 1833, in Cortland County, N. Y., and was an infant when brought to this State. He here received a district-school education, in the intervals learning the secrets of agricultural life. He gave his father his work until twenty-one years of age and has always been engaged in farming. For five years he worked the homestead on shares. Just before his father's decease he bought a mill which the elder gentleman had built in Attica Township. Only two days after the transfer the father was killed in the mill. Our subject continued the proprietorship of it for one year and then sold out. Returning to the farm, he worked upon it in summers and spent the winters in lumbering in Lapeer County, having had an experience of nineteen years in the last-mentioned work. The last eighteen years of our subject's life have been devoted exclusively to his farming interests. October 24, 1862, he made mistress of his household Mary Harris, a daughter of Benjamin and Sophia (Hollenbeck) Harris, the former of whom was born upon a passenger sloop, his father being captain of the boat. He started as cabin boy when quite young and advanced to second mate before leaving the sea, at the age of eighteen years, and was known as Capt. Charles Harris, a man who stood high in Masonic circles. He and his crew were captured by the celebrated Capt. Kidd, and all the captains were put to death except Charles Harris, whose life was spared because he was a Mason. He was imprisoned in the hold of the pirate ship and in one night his raven hair was bleached to purest white. Held a prisoner for about six weeks, he was then set ashore and lived a number of years after. Mrs. Peck's mother was born in New York State. Her parents came to Michigan in 1837 and located upon section 34, of Lapeer Township. They afterward sold that tract and located on section 35, which they also sold, and then removed to Marathon Township, and settled upon a farm. On retiring from the active pursuit of farming, they removed to Columbiaville, where the father died in 1880; the mother still survives, at the age of sixty-five years. They were the parents of six children, four of whom are now living. A Democrat in his political likings, Mrs. Peck's father held various township offices, having been Supervisor, Clerk, Treasurer, etc., of Marathon Township; he was also Justice of the Peace in Lapeer Township and was connected socially with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Mrs. Peck was born June 4, 1843, in Lapeer Township, where she received a district-school education. Our subject and his wife are the payents of five children, four of whom are surviving. They are Nora A., Mary Hale, Miles Otis and Bertha O. Nora is the wife of George E. Hosner who lives in Macomb County, and is a farmer; Mary is the wife of Frank W. Stephens and lives in Lapeer County, a farmer. Our subject is a member and has been President of the Patrons of Industry, his wife holding the office of Treasurer in the same society; both are members of the Grange. Mr. Peck is a Republican in politics. He has one hundred and twenty acres of land, of which one hundred and ten acres are under cultivation, and upon this he has put up all the buildings that it at the present time boasts, and he here carries on mixed farming. He has some fine trotting stock, descendants of Henry Clay and Hambletonian. After only eight days' training of his two-year-old, it made a mile in 3:30 at the Lapeer County Fair in 1890.

Lapeer County MI Archives Biographies.....Shock, Almon And Philip ************************************************ 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, 9:31 pm Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) ALMON AND PHILIP SHOCK, now residents of Metamora Township, Lapeer County, are the sons of Joseph and Melinda (Pierson) Shock, both natives of Pennsylvania, in which State they were united in marriage and in which the father follows the occupation of a tiller of the soil, his home being at that time in Northampton. County, His wife died in 1878 and he was again married. There were ten children born to the first wife, nine of whom are now living. In 1870, the family removed to Michigan and settled on two hundred and forty acres on sections 20 and 21, in Matamora Township. The following year they built an addition to their house having at that time two hundred and forty acres under splendid cultivation, In 1884 Mr. Shock moved to Kansas and took up land in Butler County, which is now finely improved and consists of one hundred and sixty broad acres. Almon Shock has had entire supervision of the homestead farm since his father removed to Kansas. The home property, however, is still undivided. Almon and his brother carry on a general farming business equally divided between grain and stock, which yields a liberal return for the labor expended upon it. Almon was born in Pennsylvania, January 13, 1853, where he received a limited district-school education. He is fond of home and has always remained there. At the age of twenty-four he was married to Miss Ann E. Jones, who is a daughter of John Jones of this township. She is a native of England having been born there in 1852. She came to Michigan with her parents at an early age. Their hearthstone has not been cheered by the bright faces and happy voices of childhood as they have no children. Philip Shock was born December 24, 1865, and his marriage to Miss Ledessie Etnire was celebrated in February, 1890. The bride is a daughter of Samuel Etnire, who is a resident of Butler County, Kan. Mrs. Shock was born December 4, 1871 in Indiana. Their home has been blessed by the advent of one child whom they have named Floyd. They are both consistent members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Shock brothers are good Republicans in their political views, following the footsteps of their father, who, although not aspiring to political honors, held many offices in the county, having been County Surveyor of Lapeer County for many years and is now holding the responsible position of Postmaster at Lorena, Kan. He is a well-educated man and began teaching school at the early age of nineteen years. He is a devoted member of the Methodist Episcopal Church where he resides. The two sons of this worthy parent possess a good deal of their father's push and energy and work harmoniously together and are bound to make a success of life.

Lapeer County MI Archives Biographies.....Moore, George E. 1864 - ************************************************ 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, 9:21 pm Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) GEORGE E. MOORE. He who resides upon and is proprietor of the fine farm on section 3, Lapeer Township, Lapeer County, is the gentleman whose name is given above. He is the son of Capt. B. F. and Hannah M. (Martling) Moore. The father was captain of a vessel on the lakes and settled at LaFayette, Ind., about 1858, where he engaged in the grain business and came to Michigan in 1869, when he purchased some pine land in Lapeer County and engaged in the milling and lumber business. In 1872 he purchased the farm on section 3, which comprised three hundred and forty-seven acres, most of which was under a good state of improvement, although he had some stumping and clearing of stone to do, and built one barn. Our subject's father was twice married; by the first marriage there were two children. The second wife, who is now the widow of Mr. Brower, was the mother of him of whom we write. She has one daughter now living by her first marriage and is the mother of five children by the present marriage. They are Sands F., an attorney in Detroit; Emma, who is Mrs. F. Hadley; Lizzie, who is Mrs. Forest Hadley; Cynthia, Mrs. Brower, and him of whom we write. Capt. Moore died in 1884; his wife still survives and lives at Lapeer. Their son and our subject, George E. Moore, was born December 28, 1864, in Lafayette, Ind. He was educated at the High School in Lapeer and has always been at home. He owns three hundred and seven acres of land of which two hundred and thirty are under cultivation. He there carries on general farming, but devotes himself principally to the raising of sheep, of which he has two hundred head. He also has some fine horses, the Percheron being his favorite breed, and has besides fourteen head of high-grade cattle. October 27, 1885, Mr. Moore was married to Miss Jenny Linton, a daughter of Thomas and Margaret (Adams) Linton, a resident of Mayfield Township. She is a Canadian by birth and was born August 18, 1862. She received a good common-school education and is well-fitted to be the mother of the four children that have come to these devoted parents. They are Maude, Benjamin F., Grace and Bertha. Our subject is a member of the Knights of Pythias and also belongs to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, holding the office of Vice-Grand in the order at Lapeer. He gives his vote and influence to the Republican party, but his interest in politics is a secondary consideration to the management of his own personal affairs.
