SAMUEL E. FRISBIE, a prominent agricult- urist and business man of the town of Milford. was born in East Haven, Conn., April 7. 1856, son of William H. and grandson of Samuel Frisbie. The family is of pioneer stock. Samuel Frisbie was born in Branford, Conn., where he continued to reside. and where he followed shoemaking all his life. His wife, Sally Tyler, was born in Branford, and passed her entire life there. Of their seven children, the eldest, Obed T. (deceased), was a shoemaker in New Haven, Conn. ; Roxana (deceased) married Nelson Linsley, of New Haven : Randolph R. was a shoemaker and later a bookkeeper, but at present is retired; William H., our subject's father, is men- tioned below ; Mary E .. a tailoress, died in Milford unmarried ; Lewis, who died in Fair Haven, Conn., was an iron and brass founder, and earlier in life a shoemaker ; and Sarah resides in Branford.

William H. Frisbie was born in Branford May II, 1826, and became a shoemaker, but afterward for some time followed the iron molder's trade.

In April, 1877, he settled upon a farm in Milford, where he still resides. He married Eunice C. Dick- inson, a native of Chester, Conn., and daughter of . Elv Dickinson, and they became the parents of one child, Samuel E.

Samuel E. Frisbie first attended school in East Haven, and when eight years old went to Bran- ford, where his studies were continued several years. At thirteen he moved with his parents to New Ha- ven, and after a short service in the finishing de- partment of the New Haven Clock Co. became clerk in a drug store to learn the business. During the panic of 1877 he settled with his parents in Mil- ford upon his present farm as a market gardener and seed grower. For the last four years he has been special agent for the Page Woven Wire Fence Co., a most successful branch of his business, ne- cessitating some traveling, and he also acts as gen- eral agent and traveler for the Rogers & Hubbard Co.'s fertilizers. He is thoroughly alive to up-to- date machinery, and has been local agent for vari- ous improved farm tools, etc., which he has in- troduced. He has never married, but he and his- father have built a beautiful residence on a part of the old farm, which contains about eighty acres -the original farm when taken comprising about 164 acres. While he votes independently so far as local affairs are concerned, he is a Republican, and owing to his clear understanding of parlia- mentary law has often been chairman of that party's caucuses, as also of the annual and special meetings of the town. He has also served as grand juror. He was a prominent candidate for the first judge of the Milford Town Court upon its establishment in 1901, being defeated in legislative caucus only by a compromise candidate. While taking an active part in town affairs. he has sought to avoid and has refused public preferment. Mr. Frisbie belongs to. the Patrons of Husbandry, or Grange, and is a char- ter member and organizer of the local Grange in his town ; he is also president for the fourth consecutive time of the local council of the National Provident Union, and takes much interest in temperance af- fairs. He is a member of Plymouth Congrega- tional Church, and for three years was superin- tendent of its Sunday-school. For two years he was director of music in the First Congregational Church, and he has taken inuch interest in musical affairs generally, having been president and organ- izer of the old Amphion Music Society, and sec- retary of the more recent Choral Musical Union.

CHARLES W. GRANNISS, an 'honored vet- eran of the Civil war, and a representative citizen. of the town of East Haven, New Haven county, was born Nov. 10, 1844. on the farm where he now resides, and comes of good old Colonial stock.

The family was founded in the New World by Edward Granniss, a native of England, who came to this country in 1644 and first located in Hartford, Conn., where he. followed farming about ten years.

COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.

About 1670 he removed to Hadley, Mass .. and seven years later came to North Haven. He married Eliz- .abeth Andrews in 1654, and among their children was Joseph Granniss, who was born in 1677. Isaac Granniss, son of Joseph, was born in 1716, and was the first of the family to locate in East Haven, mak- ing his home on the farm where our subject now lives. He purchased this land from the Indian chief Foxen. His son, Jared Granniss. the grand- father of our subject, was born in 1756, and lived to the advanced age of ninety-one years. He was one of the Revolutionary heroes, and was with Gen. Putnam in the battle of Bunker Hill.

Frederick Granniss, father of our subject, was born Feb. 2, 1813, and when sixteen years of age was apprenticed to George Hoadley, of New Haven, to learn the carriagemaker's trade. at which he con- tinued to work for several years, spending part of the time in Albany, N. Y. Returning to the old homestead in East Haven. he followed dairy farm- ing throughout the remainder of his life. and died there April 29, 1895. He was a consistent and faithful member of the Baptist Church, and took a very active part in its work. In early life he mar- ried Miss Emily Bailey, a daughter of Thaddeus Bailey, of Groton, Conn. She died Feb. 18, 1882. In their family were three children, of whom our subject is the youngest. George F., born Feb. 2, 1835, is a resident of Wallingford, this county; and Andrew J., born Jan. 11, 1841, is a farmer of East Haven.

Charles W. Granniss passed his boyhood and youth on the old homestead where he continues to reside, and was pursuing his studies in the local schools when the Civil war broke out. Going to New Haven, he enlisted Aug. 21, 1861. in Company A, 10th Conn. V. I., but his father, learning of his. enlistment through the school teacher, succeeded in getting his release on account of his youth. Our subject returned home, but after talking the matter over. with his father for a few days he was given a written consent to his enlistment, and together they returned to New Haven, where he re-enlisted in the same company and regiment, joining his command at that city. They were encamped at Hartford, and thence went to Annapolis, Md., later joining Burnside in his Roanoke expedition. Mr. Granniss' first engagement, at Roanoke Island. N. C., was followed by the battles of Newbern, Kinston and Goldsboro, under the command of Gen. Burnside, 10th Army Corps. Later the reginient was assigned to the 18th Army Corps, under Gens. Gilmore and Butler, and was sent .to Charleston. S. C., where they helped dig the entrenchments and remained until the surrender.of Fort Wagner. after a siege of three months. Going to St. Augustine. Fla .. they did garrison duty until Dec. 31. 1863, and then re- turned home on a thirty days' furlough. Mr. Gran-

. niss re-enlisted and rejoined his regiment at Hart- ford, where they were encamped on Trinity College grounds. Later they proceeded to Alexandria, Va.

They spent five weeks at Arlington Heights, near Washington, D. C., and then joined the army op- posite Yorktown, under Gen. Butler. Later they participated in the engagements at Bermuda Hun- dred, Drury's Bluff and the siege of Petersburg, and then crossed the James river and took part in the battle of Strawberry Plains, where Mr. Gran- niss was wounded by a minie ball in the left shoul- der, Aug. 16, 1864. He was first taken to the field hospital and later to the hospital at Newmarket Heights. On his recovery he participated in the engagements at Laurel Hill. Newmarket, Derby- town, Johnston's plantation. Hatchie's Run and Fort Gregg. While storming the fort our subject was again wounded by a revolver in the hands of a Confederate officer not one hundred feet from him, the bullet striking the first joint of the first finger on the left hand and passing through all the finger joints. He spent a few days in the hospital at Point of Rocks, and a month at the hospital at Hampton, Va., and then was discharged at New Haven, Aug. 30, 1865, with the rank of sergeant.

Soon after his return home Mr. Granniss, in company with his brother Andrew, went to Nor- folk. Va., where he was employed in lumber and wood yards for one year. At the end of that time he came back to Connecticut, and has since suc- cessfully engaged in market gardening and the dairy business on the old homestead in East Haven. On Feb. 24, 1874, he was united in marriage with Miss Annie Irwin, of Baltimore, Md., and to them were born three children: Irwin, a practicing physician of New Haven, who was graduated from the Med- ical Department of Yale College at the age of twen- ty-one years; Lincoln, who is now a member of the Freshman class at Yale; and Charles A., who died in infancy.

Fraternally Mr. Granniss is an honored member of Delphi Lodge, No. 63, F. & A. M .. of New Haven : Admiral Foote Post, No. 63, G. A. R .; and Foxen Grange, No. 89, East Haven, of which he is now master. In politics he is an ardent Republican. He was a member of the State Legislature in 1895 and again in 1899, and was chairman of the com- mittee on Temperance during the last term; he has been county auditor for two years. As a citi- zen he has always been true and faithful to every trust reposed in him, so that his loyalty is above question, being manifest in days of peace as when he followed the old flag to victory on Southern battlefields.

HENRY CHALMERS BALDWIN, whose fame as a lawyer and orator extended far beyond the confines of his native State, was born upon a farmi known as Pond Hill, in the town of Nauga- tuck, Sept. 15. 1842.

Lucius Baldwin, his father, who was a Meth- odist minister, was born in Woodbridge. He mar- ried a Miss Willard, of Massachusetts, and for many years lived upon the farm where ten of his

1027

COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.

fourteen children were born. He died in April, 1869. Of his family Henry C. was the ninth in or- dler of birth, the others being Jerusha Maria, Lucius Monroe, Edwin Soule, Hervey Watson, Amelia Anne, Louis Sherwood, Esther Sophia, Frances Adelaide, Celia Josephine, Matilda Augusta, Albert Warren, Charles Willard and Florence Eleanor. Lucius Monroe is a farmer in Naugatuck: Louis Sherwood and Albert Warren died in early man- hood. Charles Willard is a practicing lawyer in Florida. Five of the seven daughters are married, Terusha Maria to F. K. Small, of Cape Cod. Mass .; Esther Sophia to J. F. Brown, of Lynn, that State; Frances Adelaide to Judge Bingham; of Naugatuck ; Celia Josephine to E. J. Whitehead, of New York ; and Amelia Anne to George F. Walker, of Glou- cester, England. Florence Eleanor has remained unmarried. Matilda Augusta died before reaching womanhood.

Henry C. Baldwin passed his boyhood upon the paternal farm, receiving his early education at the schools of Naugatuck and New Britain. In Au- gust, 1862, before he had reached the age of twenty, he enlisted with a number of other young men of Naugatuck, in Company H, 15th C. V. His ex- perience as a soldier was eventful, and his record one of distinction. He was once wounded and was for two months a prisoner, and was mustered out of service June 28, 1865. On his return to Naugatuck he taught school for a time, and was for two years connected with a concern engaged in the manufacture of pocket cutlery, window fixtures, etc. That pursuit, however, he did not find con- genial, and in 1869 he matriculated in the Yale Law School, from which he was graduated three years later. He at once began practice at Naugatuck, where his natural ability, sound learning and fidelity to his clients soon won for him a large clientage. In 1889 he opened an office in New York, spending three days of each week in that city, and in 1895 he established a branch office in Waterbury, Conn., the better to meet the demands of his constantly growing practice. He died Jan. 15, 1897, at his home in Carroll Court, the immediate cause of his death being heart failure, the sequence to an ill- ness extending over several weeks. His passing away cast a gloom over the community in which he had lived so long, and where he had many friends and where he was universally honored, even by those who criticised what they sometimes desig- nated his "erratic" course in politics. As a man he was trusted implicitly by all who knew him : as a friend he was sincere, charitable, faithful; as a husband and father, loyal and devoted; as a citi- zen, progressive, public-spirited and liberal. En- dowed with a singularly retentive memory and sparkling wit, he was a brilliant conversationalist. As a lawyer, his sympathies were always with the cause which he believed to be right and just. and his generosity toward those in distress was limited

only by his pecuniary ability, although ever guided by a sound judgment.

Reference has been made in the preceding para- graph to Mr. Baldwin's career as a politician. His first vote was cast as a Democrat, and in 1872 he took the stump for Horace Greeley. He was a con- stant reader on theories and principles of govern- ment and finance, and he early became imbued with the creed. of the Greenback-Labor party, in 1875 delivering the first speech ever made in its ad- vocacy in Hartford. In 1880 he was a delegate to the convention which nominated Gen. Weaver for the presidency, and in one campaign he was the Greenback candidate for Connecticut's chief ex- ecutive chair. In 1886 he was elected town clerk on that ticket. In 1896 he was an ardent supporter of William J. Bryan, and made speeches in his be- half in Connecticutt and New Jersey. The follow- ing is extracted from a paragraph which appeared in the New York Sun at the time of his death : "Mr. Baldwin had been identified with public af- fairs for a long time. He had been a Greenbacker, and was the Greenback candidate for governor of his State at one time. He followed Blaine through Maine the time the State elected a Greenback gov- ernor, and to him more than to any other man was due the victory of the party in that State. He was an ardent Populist of late years, and took an active part in the St. Louis convention. It was he who got on his feet and asked the gathering to use their brains instead of their mouths." As an orator Mr. Baldwin was eloquent and fearless, and even his opponents always heard him with interest and re- spect. He was a frequent contributor to the press, his writings always showing deep research and men- tal qualities of a high order. At one time he was connected with a Naugatuck weekly called the .Agi- tator, devoted to the interests of the working men, and many leading papers throughout the land wel- comed articles from his pen.

On May 29, 1875, Mr. Baldwin married Miss Millicent, a daughter of Elijah W. Bingham, of Middletown. She and their three children, May E., Florence J. and Seth W., survive him.

FREDERICK LEGRAND JACKSON, a well- known merchant at Stony Creek, has won more than a local reputation for honest goods and fair treatment. and by his plain and upright methods of doing business has drawn to himself a very de- sirable custom. Mr. Jackson was born in Durham, Conn., March 2, 1860, and is a son of Alfred and Deborah Ann (Davis) Jackson, both natives of Connecticut, the former of Guilford, and the latter of Durham.

John Jackson, his paternal grandfather, was born in Guilford, where he lived and died, having fol- lowed the vocation of farming all his life. Levi Davis, the maternal grandfather of Frederick L. Jackson, was also a farmer in Durham, and in his

1028

later life he removed to a location in Susquehanna county, Penn., where he spent the rest of his life, dying in that community.

Alfred Jackson, the father of Frederick L., is a farmer, and has his home in Durham, Conn. There are. six children in his family: Lillia V. (who married Henry Davis), Andrew, Frederick L., Edith, Mary and John.

Frederick LeGrand Jackson spent his boyhood days in Durham, and received his education in Dur- ham Academy. Leaving home at the age of twenty years, he became an employe in the general store of his brother-in-law, Henry Davis, and remained with him nine and a half years. Mr. Jackson began business for himself in 1891, at Stony Creek, after having managed the establishment of Strong, Barnes & Hart, for about a year and a half. Pur- chasing the stock and good will of his employers, he solicited the patronage of the public in his own behalf, and from the first made a decided success in his business.

On June 8, 1892, Mr. Jackson was married to Mary F., a daughter of Joseph A. and Adeline W. (Webster) Terry, of Hartford. Mr. Jackson is a member of the two fraternal societies the Knights of Honor and the Knights of Pythias. In politics he is a Democrat.

LYNDE ROWLAND, a prominent citizen of Branford, was born in Old Lyme, New London Co., Corn .. July 17. 1827, son of Lynde and Susan Y. (Greenfield ) Rowland, and grandson of Evi and Caroline ( Chadwick) Rowland. He comes of good old Puritan stock, and is a worthy representa- tive of the best ideals and principles of New Eng- land. The maternal grandfather of Mr. Rowland, James Greenfield, who was a shoe-maker of Old Lyme, came of English and German extraction. He was a soldier in the war of 1812. Our subject's father was a sea captain, and in the course of his professional career visited all the great seaports of the world. He died Jan. 20, 1841, aged fifty-fiye years, in the village of Old Lyme, shortly after the death of his wife, who passed away Nov. 15, 1840. aged forty-six years. Their family consisted of four children, of whom the eldest, Edward, who died several years ago, was a farmer and school teacher by occupation ; he married Abigail Lay, and had six children. Mary Ann died Dec. 20, 1832, aged two years, six months. Abigail G. became the wife of Andrew Ure. a farmer and merchant, and had five children ; she died in 1899.

Lynde Rowland, whose name introduces this sketch, was reared in the village of Old Lyme. where he spent the first thirteen and a half years of his life, at the end of which time he was bound out to the carriagemaker's trade for seven years to William F. Cables, of New London. He finished | his trade in Salem, and in 1846 removed to Leyden, Lewis Co., N. Y., where he embarked in the mantt- facture of horse rakes, butter tubs, cheese boxes and

presses, wagons, turnings for builders, and other wooden goods. For six years he continued in busi- ness in that city, and in 1851 he came to Branford. where he went into the wagon and carriage busi- ness, in which with some intermissions he con- tinued for nearly fifty years. In 1862 he became the proprietor of a grocery store in Branford, which remained on his hands for nearly a year, and later he had another for about the same length of time. For a time he was also interested in a carriage fac- tory in the city of New York, where he had a feed store and also a shoe shop. Mr. Rowland at the present time is extensively interested in Branford real estate, owning a number of tenements and busi- ness buildings, nineteen in all. He has been an active and progressive business man, and a consider- able fortune attests his industry and thrifty manage- ment.

Mr. Rowland was married, in 1862, to Amelia M., daughter of William Allport, of Branford, and is the father of two sons, Lynde W. and Wallace A. Lynde W. was born July 13, 1863, was married May 2, 1888, to Minnie Harrison, and resides in Naugatuck. Wallace A., born Feb. 20, 1870, was married Aug. 21, 1899, to Mattie Parker, and has two sons-Chester R., born Nov. 13, 1900; and Lynde Parker, born Sept. 6, 1901. They make their home in Branford. Politically Mr. Rowland was a Whig in early life, but became a Republican on the formation of that party. In his younger man- hood he was a member of the Odd Fellows in New Haven.

Mrs. Rowland's father, William Allport, was born in Birmingham. England, and came to Amer- ica at the age of twenty-two. In Middletown he married Julia Hudson, and they had six children. Mr. Allport was a metal patternmaker by trade. He died Nov. 16, 1889, his wife on Dec: 1, 1891.

JOHN AUGUSTUS COOK was born June 5. 1859, on Center street, Wallingford, a son of Sam- uel Merriman Cook, and descends from the Cook family of Herefordshire and County Kent, England.
