He then took charge of the home farm, to which he has since added eighty acres, and now has a well-improved and highly cultivated farm of 230 acres. He is principally engaged in general farming and dairying and stock raising, and in his labors is meeting with well-de- served success.
In 1877 Mr. Minor was united in marriage with Miss Carrie Palmer, of Wolcott, by whom he had one child, Ina May, who was born May 8, 1879, and is at home.

GOODELL LINES. When, after years of long and earnest labor in some honorable field of business, a man is able to put aside all cares to spend his remaining years in the enjoyment of the- fruits of former toil, he has certainly a well-de- served reward for his industry.
How blessed is he who crowns in shades like these, A youth of labor with an age of ease,
wrote the poet, and the world everywhere recog- nizes, the justice of a season of rest following an active business life. Mr. Lines is now living re- tired at his pleasant home in Naugatuck, and his history shows the accomplishment of well-directed labor.
A native of this county, he was born in Bethany. Aug. 21, 1827. His grandfather, Eber Lines, was born probably in the same town, for there he followed farming during the greater part of his life, and there he died in 1844.

ROYAL HOLBROOK, proprietor of the An- sonia quarries and of the Holbrook Granite Quarries in Seymour, is one of the leading business men in Ansonia. Besides attending to his other interests he does a large business as a contractor and builder, many of the most important structures in the vicinity having been built under his direction.
Mr. Holbrook was born July 18, 1844, in the town of Derby, now Seymour, where his family has been prominent from pioneer times. Abel Hol- brook was born in Milford, Conn., in 1653. John Holbrook, his son, and our subject's great-great- grandfather, was born in Derby in 1699, and was one of. the first settlers at Great Hill, where he bought a large tract of land. His son, Capt. John Holbrook, born in Derby, now Seymour, was one of the executive committee to provide food. and clothing for the soldiers in the Revolutionary army, and the family has always been noted for martial spirit, three of our subject's nephews having served as soldiers in Manila. Richard A. Holbrook, our subject's grandfather, was also born in Derby, now Seymour, and, like his father, passed his life as farmer at the old homestead at Great Hill. He married Grace Hawkins, and they had a large fam- ily of children.
fices. He was married three times, and by his sec- ond wife, Emily Tomlinson, had ten children, of whom four are living: Philo, Royal, Daniel and Herman. By his third wife he had one son, George, who lives in New Haven. Mrs. Emily (Tomlin- son) Holbrook, who died in 1859, at the age of forty-seven, was a native of Oxford, and a daughter of Truman and Naney ( Perry) Tomlinson, who had the following children: Harrison, Ransom, John, Mary, Emily (our subject's mother), Min- erva (Mrs. Nichols, whose daughter, Mrs. Henry Wirth resided in Ansonia ), and Laura (Mrs. Ben- jamin Bassett), none of whom are living.
Royal Holbrook received a common-school edu- cation, and remained at home until he reached the age of sixteen. when he began to learn the mason's trade at Ansonia. After following the business for some years as a journeyman in Ansonia, Derby, Shelton, and New Haven, he became a contractor, in 1890, succeeding his brother Frederick, who had been carrying on that line of work extensively for some years. Since taking charge Mr. Holbrook has built the S. O. & C. Co.'s mill, the "Fountain House," the Farrell Foundry, boiler house and sand shed, the building of the Ansonia Furniture Co. and the Fowler Nail Factory, at . Seymour, and many other buildings, both stone and brick, while he has also won a high reputation as a maker of macadam roads by his excellent work in that line in Seymour. The road constructed by him there is considered one of the finest in the State. For about eight years he lias owned the quarry, enabling him to furnish the material for his building contracts and for curbing, paving and other uses, while the product is much in demand by the building trade generally. From his office at No. 53 Franklyn street, Mr. Holbrook directs his business conven- iently, and as the quarry is located only a short dis- tance from the business center of Ansonia the stone is easily shipped away, much of it going to Nauga- tuck and Waterbury. The stone works are equipped with modern machinery for drilling, hoisting and crushing, and Mr. Holbrook usually employs about forty men, althoughi at times the business requires sixty or seventy, his being the largest payroll in the city. In politics Mr. Holbrook is a Democrat, and in 1893 he served ably and acceptably on the board of selectmen. He belongs to the local Board of Trade, and socially is identified with the I. O. O. F., Naugatuck Lodge, No. 63. He and his fan- ily attend the Congregational Church, of which Mrs. Holbrook is a member ; his parents were con- neeted with the Episcopal Church, and he was reared in that faith.
