Travis has been engaged in the practice of law in the city of Grand Rapids. Mr. Travis was born at Hartford, Mich., Jan. 3, 1865, son of John W. Travis. His early education was secured in the public schools, following which he entered the University of Michigan, graduating from the law department of that institution with the class of 1890. He began practice at Grand Rapids in the same year, as a member of the firm of Montgomery, Bundy & Travis, and this association continued until 1892, when, upon the election of Mr. Montgomery to the Supreme Court, the firm became Bundy & Travis. At present he is senior member of the firm of Travis, Merrick, Warner & Johnson, with offices in the Michigan Trust Company building. He is a member of the Kent County Bar Association, the Michigan Bar Association and the American Bar Association.
