(1892) JAMES COLLING. Our subject is the owner of three hundred acres of land, located on sections 10 and 11, Watertown Township, Tuscola County. He is a native of Canada, having been born April 15, 1842, and is the son of Joseph and Ann (Masson) Colling. Our subject remained in Canada until 1861, at which date he came to the Wolverine State and worked on a farm of two hundred acres, which his father had taken up from the Government in 1852. The original of this sketch was married in Canada, May 17, 1869, to Sarah J. Prudham. Mrs. Colling was the daughter of John and Elizabeth (Foster) Prudham, the father a native of England and the mother of Ireland. The parents had born to them a family of five sons and three daughters. The father of Mrs. Colling was a farmer by occupation. He came to Canada, where his decease took place. The mother is still living and residing in that country. To our subject and wife have been born five children, bearing the names respectively of Ellen K., Albert E., Annie E., Sarah J., and James W., and all of whom are living. Ellen is a graduate of the Mayville school and is at present teaching. Mr. Colling has been a resident of Watertown Township since 1861. He has become the possessor of three hundred acres of land, two hundred and twenty acres of which are under most excellent improvement. He has erected good and convenient buildings and has all the farm implements necessary to carry on the work of a first-class farm, and his property is one of the finest in the township. Socially our subject is identified with the Masons, having taken the first degree. He has always been numbered among the Republicans in politics, believing that party best able to carry out his principles in a governmental way. He has held the office of Supervisor for five successive years, which shows him to be a popular man in his district; he also has been Township Treasurer two terms and Highway Commissioner for a number of years. He has been successful in all his undertakings and has accumulated his property solely by his own industry.

Tuscola County MI Archives Biographies.....Taylor, James 1844 - ************************************************ Copyright.

(1892) JAMES TAYLOR. This veterinary surgeon, who is carrying on a good practice in Vassar, had his birth in Westmoreland County, England, on the 19th of June, 1844, and came to America with his parents at the age of eight years, living in Niagara County, N. Y., until he was twelve years old, when he went to Canada to work by the month at farming and there had the misfortune to break his leg. Three years later young Taylor returned to New York and in April, 1861, he enlisted as a private in Company C, Twenty-eighth New York Infantry, and saw the smoke of battle at Ball's Bluff, Winchester, Cedar Mountain, and in many skirmishes. He was wounded August 9, 1862, at Cedar Mountain and lost a piece of bone from his arm above the elbow. On account of this wound he received his honorable discharge in November, of that year, in Alexander Hospital, and after returning to New York he spent the next two summers buying and selling horses and village property. He was married April 5, 1865, at Porter, Niagara County, N. Y., to Miss Catherine McConnell, who was born in Sterling, Canada, in 1845. John Pawley, D. V. S., of Porter, N. Y., is the preceptor under whom Dr. Taylor studied his profession and he began its practice in 1865, coming to Vassar in 1872. Besides the results of this practice, which are good, he receives a pension of $30 a month on account of his disabilities received in battle and he has accumulated some valuable real estate. He has six children: Gilbert, born in Porter, N. Y., March 4, 1868, who is an artist in Buffalo, where he does excellent work for the papers of that city; Jennie, born December 2, 1870, in Porter, and now Mrs. William Scott, of Chicago; Nancy M., born in Vassar, May 9, 1874; Lillian, August 1, 1876; James P., March 1, 1878; and Kate, December 13, 1881; besides these there are four deceased. He of whom we write is a member of the Masonic fraternity of which he is considered a prominent representative. His political convictions have led him to ally himself with the Republican party and he is a strong defender of its principles and policy. The Grand Army of the Republic commands his warm adherence and nothing gives him greater delight than to join in reunions with his old comrades in arms. In this organization he has served as Officer of the Day and has attended some of the national reunions enjoying greatly the encampments at Columbus and Detroit. While interested in the political movements of the day he has for himself kept aloof from office and has never been willing to have his name brought before the people for elective positions. The educational advantages of Dr. Taylor in his early life were extremely limited, as a scant common school education was all which he had an opportunity to embrace, but throughout life he has steadfastly and systematically improved every opportunity for improvement and has in this way gained the culture and general intelligence which have made him the man he is to-day, and his natural ability has given him an advantage over many who have had better opportunities than he.

Tuscola County MI Archives Biographies.....Denyes, J. Maitland 1859 - ************************************************ 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 sdgenweb@yahoo.com February 16, 2007, 12:30 am Author: Chapman Bros. (1892) J. MAITLAND DENYES. A cursory view of the business establishments of Caro reveals a creditable degree of enterprise among its citizens and also shows that one of the thriving stores is that of Mr. Denyes, situated most conveniently in the business portion of the town. Here he carries on a large trade as a grocer, and even in his busiest hours has a pleasant word for his friends. He has been engaged during the majority of his active years in the grocery business, either as clerk or manager for others, or in business on his own account, and he is therefore familiar with the various details which contribute to success. In his dealings with others he has an established reputation for honesty and reliability, and in stating of him that no word has ever been uttered against him as a business man, we are only giving "honor to whom honor is due." Peter Denyes, the father of our subject, was descended from German ancestry, as is indicated by the family name. He was a native of Canada whither his forefathers had emigrated from Germany. In Canada he was married to Eliza Gordon, whose people originally resided in the eastern portion of the United States. In Hastings County, Ontario, on February 16, 1859, occurred the birth of the subject of this biographical notice, and there upon his father's farm his earlier years were passed. The education which he received was gained in the district schools of the neighborhood, and in work upon the old homestead he passed the intervals of study. When he was twenty, death invaded the family circle and removed from earth the father, who was sincerely mourned not alone by the immediate family but by the neighbors and friends who appreciated his manly worth of character and upright life. In 1883 Mr. Denyes journeyed Westward looking for a suitable location, and in his tour of investigation he visited Chicago, Minneapolis, the Red River, the Valley of Dakota, Manitoba and Winnipeg. Prior to this he had visited his brother in Caro in 1880 and he now turned his footsteps hither, determining that he would make a permanent home here. For one year he engaged in the agricultural implement business at Belleville, and afterward clerked in the same place in the wholesale grocery store of Walmsley & Spafford for two years. This gained for him the experience and enabled him to save sufficient money with which to start in the grocery business in Caro. A partnership was formed with his brother, Albert, (now in Harvey, Ill.) in business as grocers and after continuing the connection one year, our subject purchased his brother's interest and has since been alone. On October 17, 1888, the interesting ceremony was performed which united the fortunes of Mr. Denyes and Miss Effie Craw, an accomplished young lady residing in Caro at the time of her marriage. A native of this village, Mrs. Denyes was born September 19, 1869, and is the daughter of Farley and Millie (Bunker) Craw, residents of this place. The pleasant home which Mr. Denyes has established here is brightened by two little children— Hazel, born September 15, 1889, and Harry Maitland, May 30, 1891. In his political affiliations Mr. Denyes is a strong Republican, although he takes no greater interest in politics than to cast his vote for the candidate who will uphold the principles he believes subserve to the best interests of the Government. Officially he refuses to serve as he prefers the quiet of domestic life to the constant excitement of politics and has little time to spare from his business to devote to public life. Socially he belongs to the order of the Maccabees, and is well known not only in Caro but throughout the entire county, as an upright, generous and energetic citizen.

Our subject's mother died in 1889, in Kalamazoo County. Milo Curtis was a pioneer in Millington Township. He here owned eighty acres of land. At the time of his decease our subject was only four years of age. His mother then went back to Ohio, taking him with her and there he remained until eighteen years of age and became engaged in farm work. He then went to Kalamazoo County and worked on a farm for four years, when he purchased forty acres of land where he now resides and eighty acres on section 2, of the same township. Mr. Curtis was married in Vassar, April 12, 1891, to Miss Ruth Hodgson, a daughter of John R. Hodgson, of Canada, where he now resides. Mr. Curtis was educated in Ohio, at Willoughby College, in Lake County. Socially he belongs to the Knights of Pythias, being a member of Millington Lodge, No. 61. Politically he is a Republican and has been so since the beginning of his career. He and his wife are the most pleasing of young people and have common sense and broad views of the future that will inevitably bring them in touch with leading minds of their locality.

(1892) DAVID H. ANDREWS. Our subject, who is now a resident of Indian Fields Township, Tuscola County, was born November 21, 1818, in Geauga County, Ohio. He is a son of Amis and Hope (Tanner) Andrews. Amis Andrews was born in 1780 near New Haven, Conn. He left his native State, however, when a young man and on the breaking out of the War of 1812, he enlisted and fought, under Perry. After the cessation of hostilities he located in Ohio and there remained until 1853, when he came to Tuscola County, this State. Our subject is now the owner of, and resident upon, the same forty acres that his father received from the Government in return for his services in the War of 1812. It is on section 18, and is a good and arable piece of land. He is now the owner of one hundred and ninety-six acres. Amis A. Andrews married Hope Tanner about 1814. She was a daughter of James Tanner, of Geauga County, Ohio. The young couple began life as farmers and as the years passed became the parents of thirteen children, four of whom are yet living. They are David, Lucy, James and Amis Jr. Lucy is now a resident of Wisconsin and is a widow of John Gotham; James lives in Geauga County, Ohio. Our subject's parents were connected with the Primitive Methodists and he himself has frequently been called upon to hold office in that church, with which he has been connected for fifty years. Our subject began for himself at the age of twenty-one years, first hiring out to his father for $10 per month and his board. The next year he went upon his own farm in Geauga County, Ohio, and made that his home for about fifteen years. In 1853 he came to Tuscola County and has ever since resided upon the farm where he now lives.

Tuscola County MI Archives Biographies.....Walton, William N. 1855 - ************************************************ Copyright.

(1892) WILLIAM N. WALTON, Clerk of Tuscola County, formerly resided in Watrousville, but is now a resident of Caro, where he is satisfactorily discharging the duties of his position. He was born in Northumberland, England, March 5, 1855, and is the son of John and Mary J. (Irwin) Walton. His parents, who were natives of England, came to America, locating in Hamilton, Ontario, when our subject was about three months old. After residing there until February, 1860, they removed to the United States and located in Watrousville, Mich., where the father followed his occupation of wagon-maker. The boyhood days of our subject were passed principally in the village of Watrousville, where he attended the common schools and assisted his father in the shop. He learned the trade of a wagon-maker, and at the age of seventeen began to teach, following the profession for a number of years. He brought to the work of a teacher abilities which eminently fitted him for the able discharge of his duties, being painstaking, thorough and a good disciplinarian. In 1875 he engaged in the grocery business in Watrousville, and continued in that line of business about two years. In 1876 he received the appointment of Postmaster of the village by President Hayes, for whom he had cast his first presidential ballot. In the latter part of 1877 Mr. Walton closed out his business in Watrousville and resigned the position of Postmaster, after which he entered into partnership with his father in the wagon business. They continued together for a number of years, until the father was called from earth, October 3, 1881. Our subject continued the business during the three ensuing years, until he was solicited to accept the principalship of the village school. In September, 1889, he was appointed to fill a vacancy in the County Board of School Examiners, and so well did he fill the position that he was elected to the same position for another term. Upon being elected County Clerk, he resigned the former position, in order to devote his entire attention to his official duties. He is widely known as an honorable, reliable official, and enjoys the confidence of all the citizens, who appreciate his devotion to the public good and the energy which he displays in every department of labor. On March 27, 1880, Mr. Walton was united in marriage with Miss Caroline M. Wilkinson, who was residing in Denmark, Tuscola County, at the time of her marriage. She is the daughter of Matthew and Ann (Woodward) Wilkinson, both of whom were born in England, whence they emigrated to America at an early day and there have since resided. Mrs. Walton was born in Denmark, Mich., April 25, 1858, and was reared to womanhood beneath the parental roof. Three children have blessed the union of Mr. and Mrs. Walton, namely: John, who was born in Watrousville,May 4, 1882; Joseph and Louis, both born in Watrousville, the former May 23, 1885, and the latter April 5, 1887. While residing in Watrousville Mr. Walton was for a number of terms School Inspector of Juniata Township. Politically he is a firm Republican, and socially he is a member of the Masonic order, having taken the seventh degree. He joined the fraternity when he was only twenty-one years of age, and now holds membership in the Blue Lodge at Vassar and Chapter at Caro. He still owns property at Watrousville, where he resided so many years. He is gifted with physical and intellectual activity, decision of purpose and calm judgment, which traits are not only useful in the conduct of his private affairs, but render him a most desirable public official. As County Clerk he is capable and faithful, and is conceded to be one of the best officials who have occupied this position. His popularity is proved by the fact that he and the Sheriff were the only candidates on the Republican ticket who received the election in the campaign of 1890. The sturdy principles of a well-ordered life have guided him in all his undertakings, and he enjoys the implicit confidence of his acquaintances.
