Hillsdale County MI Archives Biographies.....Vandervolgan, Henry December 15, 1834 - ************************************************ 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: Jan Cortez http://www.rootsweb.com/~archreg/vols/00020.html#0004939 April 14, 2007, 8:39 pm Author: Chapman Brothers Henry Vandervolgen resides on section 8, Pittsford Township, where he has built up a pleasant home, and is actively engaged in the occupation of farming. For the past two years he has been principally engaged in buying and shipping stock. The parents of our subject, and also of his wife, were early settlers of Hillsdale County, and their children were reared amid the scenes of a pioneer life, and experienced its privations and trials in common with those about them. Since the days of their childhood the face of the country has entirely changed, and their present comfortable, cozy home, situated amid broad, well-tilled fields, forms a great contrast between the humble pioneer homes in which they were reared, with wild surroundings, lofy trees of the primeval forest stretching for miles and miles on either hand with scarcely a break, excepting here and there the small clearings of some settler, and haunted by wolves, bears, deer, wild turkeys, and other wild animals, and even the aboriginal settlers of this country still lurked in their forest haunts when the parents of our subject first moved here. The conditions of such a life developed in the people a hardihood, vigor of mind, self-reliance and mutual helpfulness, that were a great power in the making of this noble commonwealth of Michigan, and have left their unmistakable impress upon the gneration of to-day. Mr. Vandervolgan was born in the town of Root, Montgomery Co., N.Y., Dec. 15, 1834. His father, Freeman S. Vandervolgan, was born in the same town, where his father, Lawrence Vandervolgan, a native of Holland, or of Dutch parentage, spent his last years, engaged at his trade of shoemaker. The father of our subject was reared and marrie there to Mary Clement, a native, and daughter of Aaron and Elizabeth (Ottman) Clement, pioneers of Pittsford Township (for history of them see sketch of Christopher Clement). After marriage Mr. and Mrs. Vandervolgan continued to live in their native town until 1838, and then started with their five children to build for themselves a home in Michigan, taking the most convenient and expeditious route, via Erie Canal and lake to Toledo. They then proceeded on the railway to Adrian, which was then the western teminus of the railway, the cars being drawn by horses. They made their way from there through the wilderness across Bean Creek Valley to Pittsford Township, where Mr. Vandervolgan bought a tract of land on section 4, it being at the time the settlement furthest west on the town line. He soon erected a comfortable log house for the shelter of his family, with the usual mud and stick chimney, and an elm bark covered roof. Mrs. Vandervolgan was a notable housewife, and used to cook delicious meals before the huge fireplace, and for some years spun and wove all the flax and wool, and made the clothes for the family. The industrious and useful life of that good woman closed on the scenes of earth June 2, 1847. After her death Mr. Vandervolgan moved to Wheatland and made his home there until his death, Oct. 11, 1873. He was a trustworthy, upright man, and was respected by all in the community. The subject of this sketch was in his fourth year when he came to Hillsdale County with his parents, and he has since been a witness of its development and growth, and has borne an honorable part in promoting its agricultural interests. After his marriage he bought forty acres of land on section 4, and reside on it for a few years, and then sold that place and purchased a tract on section 15. A few months later he also disposed of that in order to buy a part of the old homestead on section 4. After living there eleven years he bought the place where he now resides. His present farm contains sixty-six acres of land under an excellent state of culture, and with good modern improvements, noticeable among which are a substantial dwelling and ample out- buildings. In these years of persistent and courageous labor Mr. Vandervolgan's efforts in the upbuilding of a home have been ably seconded by the devoted cooperation of his excellent wife, to whom he was united in marriage Sept. 13, 1860. Her maiden name was Susan M. Rush, and her birth took place in Macedon, Wayne Co., N.Y., Aug. 27, 1836. Two children have blessed their union - Laura A. and Mary E. Their happy married life has been saddened by the death of their eldest daughter, Laura, who was born Sept. 21, 1861 and died Jan. 6, 1888. Mrs. and Mrs. Vandervolgan are highly respected for genuine kindly hearts and true worth of character; they are members of the Free-Will Baptist Church, and zealously uphold its good works. In politics, Mr. Vandervolgan is a firm supporter of the Republicans. Mrs. Vandervolgan's parents were pioneers of Pittsford Township, and as such we are pleased to incorporate a brief record of their lives in this sketch. Her father, Jehial M. Rush, was born in ONtario County, N.Y., March 13, 1808, and was a son of Samuel F. Rush, a native of Connecticut, whose father, it is thought, came to America from Scotland, with his mother when quite young, and settled in that New England State. The grandfather of Mrs. V. grew to manhood in his native State, and when a young man went to New York and settled in Ontario County, and was a pioneer of the town of Farmington. He bought timbered land, improved a good farm, and lived there many years. He subsequently removed to Wayne County, resided there until 1840, and then came to this county and made his home in Pittsford Township, where he improved a farm from its wild state, and continued to live here until his death. The maiden name of his wife was Catherine Dellezenne, and she was born in New York State. Her father, Michael Dellezenne, was a native of France, who emigrated to America some time during the last century, and settled in the State of New York. Mrs. Vandervolgan's father was reared on a farm in his native State until twenty years old, and then he learned to be a carpenter, and followed that trade in New York State for some years. He married, Aug 29, 1835, Miss Laura A. Wilber, who was born in Wrentham, near Boston, Mass., Feb. 15, 1815. Her father was Ephraim Wilber; his father was a farmer, and spent his last years in Norton, Mass., where he died about 1823. Mrs. Vandervolgan's maternal grandparents moved to New York, and settled near Syracuse, Onondaga County, where her grandfather died about one year later. Two years after that his widow married again, moved to Wayne County, and settle din Macedon, where she spent her last years. Her maiden name was Susan Leonard, and her father, Job Leonard, the great grandfather of Mrs. V., was a native of Massachusetts, where he owned a foundry in Wrentham. In the year 1837 the parents of Mrs. V. came to Michigan, and located near Hillsdale, where Mr. Rush bought a tract of timbered land. He cleared some of his land, and continued to work at his trade a part of the time. He built a log house on his place, which the Indians, who still lingered in the vicinity, used to call "The Clean House" to distinguish it from the other log houses, as it was built of hewn logs. He resided there seven years, and then moved to Pittsford Township, where he bought a partially improved farm on section 9, and continued to be actively engaged in his trade. He erected a suitable set of frame buildings, and lived there until 1864, when he sold that place and bought the one where he now resides, and has since devoted his entire time farming. He owns a good farm of forty acres, well provided with good buildings, and he and his good wife are spending their decling years in comfort and in the enjoyment of the respect of the people about them. They are the parents of four children, of who Mrs. Vandervolgan is the eldest: the record of the others is as follows: Eliza is the wife of Jonathan Stafford, of Wheatland Township; Alice is the wife of John Vandervolgan, and lives in Eaton County; Delora is at home with her parents.

Eleazer Root in the 74th year of his age. The deceased was born in Coventry, Ct., and lived in those days that tried men’s souls, was for a period, in the actual service of his country at the time of the Revolution. He afterwards removed to the state of New York where he entered upon the practice of medicine in Canaan, Columbia Co., in 1788. Here in his practice of 48 years embracing wide and extensive field, he had the pleasure of giving universal satisfaction. It is believed that few men of his profession have enjoyed a large share of public confidence. That he arose to no inconsiderable eminence in his profession may be whom from the fact that for several years he was president of the County Medical Society. In the fall of 1834 he removed with his family into this country, where he entered at once into extensive practice and for skill and through acquaintance with his profession was fast acquiring a reputation surpassed by few, if any. Although he had passed his three score years and ten, he possessed up to the day of his sickness almost the mental and bodily vigor of youth. As to mortality, his character stands irreproachable. In early life he obtained a hope in the mercy of Christ, and had been throughout in the habit of secret prayer, but on his dying bed, to use his own language, had to mourn that he had not made a more public profession of his attachment to the cause of his Savior. Through his sickness he manifested a great deal of composure and a perfect resignation to the will of God. In conversation with him after the hand of death was evidently laid upon him, he remarked that he had no fear in trusting himself in the hands of his Savior, and that he felt to trust and rejoice in him.
