Wilcox, of this review, and died De- cember 6, 1904. He attended the district school and Meriden Academy in youth, and continued to reside on the paternal farm until his death, which occurred De- cember 6, 1904. As a young man he spent one winter working in a woolen mill in Meriden, then pursued general farming.

as moderator of the town meetings. He married, December 21, 1854, Sarah Jane Dunham, who was born May 3, 1835, in Kensington, town of Berlin, who sur- vives him; she resides with her son. When a child, she became a member of the Kensington Congregational Church, from which she received a letter after her marriage, and became a member of the Westfield church. She is a descendant of an old New England family, founded by Deacon John Dunham, born in 1588-89, in Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, England, who went to Leyden with the early Pilgrims. He was a member of the original congre- gation of the Pilgrims, organized at Scrooby, and came with Governor Brad- ford and Elder Brewster to Plymouth.

Dunham, who was born August 16, 1700, lived on Martha's Vineyard, and was a grand juror at Plymouth, and in 1737 was at Norwich, Connecticut. He was the first of the name to settle in South- ington, Connecticut, where he died April 27, 1762. He owned half an acre of land where the Methodist Episcopal church now stands, in Southington.

William Henry Wilcox, only child of Henry and Sarah J. (Dunham) Wilcox, was reared on the paternal farm on West street, attending the district school and also a select school in Meriden. At the age of eighteen years he laid aside his books, and engaged actively in the labors of the farm, on which he has continued to the present time. His portion of the paternal homestead embraces one hundred and thirty acres on its southerly side. He is engaged quite extensively in dairying, is a well read and intelligent citizen and re- spected by all who know him. He is a trustee of the Westfield church and was long a member of the Westfield Grange. The water power on this farm, which was formerly used to operate a saw mill, is now utilized in carrying water to his handsome modern residence. His build- ings are large and commodious, including an extensive silo. While a consistent Re- publican, Mr. Wilcox has always refused
to be a candidate for office. He has given careful attention to the cultivation of his farm, which has made him inde- pendent. He is now retired from his farming activities and the farm is oper- ated by his son.
He married, June 4, 1879, Harriet Love- land, born September 23, 1860, in West- field, daughter of Ralph and Jane (Board- man) Loveland, and they are the parents of two sons and a daughter: I.

He applied himself dili- gently to his duties and soon became a drill master, in which capacity he served most of his term. He married, in 1921, Marion Scofield, of Meriden.
WILCOX, Dwight Ely,
Farmer.
A representative of the ancient Wilcox family of the Westfield section of Middle- town, the subject of this sketch exempli- fies the hardy, intelligent proclivities of his forebears. A quiet citizen who has never sought notoriety, he follows the even tenor of his way, and sets for the ris- ing generations a worthy example of serene and straightforward civil life. He was born March 4, 1855, in the house in which he now resides on East street, Westfield. The early generations of his ancestry are described in some detail elsewhere in this work (see Wilcox, Ralph M.). The gen- rations are represented by John, John, Ephriam and John. The last named lived in Westfield, and was the father of Giles Wilcox, born January 2, 1750, died Octo-

ber 23, 1838. He was reared upon the farm in Westfield, and settled on the farm now occupied by his descendant, whose name heads this article. He built his residence upon a part of the Dowd estate, which he secured by exchange of other lands with his wife. This house, erected in 1786, is still standing in excel- lent preservation, and occupied by his great-grandson. He inherited consider- able land, was very active in public af- fairs, was a captain of the local militia, and a regular attendant at the Baptist church. He married, November 9, 1775, Rachel Dowd, daughter of David and Sarah (Turner) Dowd. She died Sep- tember 1, 1828. Both are buried near the Westfield schoolhouse.
Giles Wilcox, eldest child of Giles and Rachel (Dowd) Wilcox, was born August 28, 1779, in Westfield, and was a farmer all his life, dying September 20, 1841. His education was supplied by the district school of the neighborhood. He con- tinued on the paternal farm until his majority, when he settled on the farm now occupied by Frank E. Boardman (q. v.). There he remained until 1840, when the death of his father called him to the care and possession of his native homestead. He espoused the faith of the Baptist church, was a Jeffersonian Democrat, served as road supervisor many years, did much toward improving the highways, was a very successful farmer, and owned three farms at the time of his death. He married, February 27, 1803, Lucy Clark, born in December, 1778, daughter of Ben- jamin and Biah Clark, of Westfield, died April 17, 1834.

country school was a student two terms at Cromwell Academy, and later at the famous preparatory school of Daniel H. Chase, in Middletown, and also a select school kept by John D. Post, of Meriden. He was but a lad at the time of his father's death and for many years he resided with his sister, Mrs. Selden G. Ely, of Crom- well. There he engaged in the labors of the farm and after his marriage settled on the paternal farm, which he inherited from his father, and where he continued in gen- eral farming, producing some tobacco, until his death. Mr. Wilcox was a sin- cere Democrat, was esteemed and re- spected by his neighbors, as evidenced by the fact that he served many years on the Town Board of Relief, and was for eighteen years school visitor in his dis- trict. He sought to promote the best in- terests of the community, but did not care for political preferment. He was a first-class farmer, and as a natural con- sequence was prosperous. He found his chief pleasure in his home, where he en- joyed a quiet and uneventful life. He married, May 27, 1852, Elvira L. Lane, who was born May 30, 1832, in Killing- worth, Connecticut, daughter of Gideon and Dency Maria (Kelsey) Lane.

Since twenty years of age he has con- tinued on the homestead, assisting his father and inheriting the same jointly with his sister. The farm embraces seventy acres, which is divided to gen- eral farming and tobacco growing. The farm is beautifully located and is kept in good condition. Mr. Wilcox may be found diligently tilling his acres throughout the season. He is a Democrat in principle, though independent of partisan dictation, and has never taken part in the conduct of public affairs.

BOND, Charles Edmund,
Business Man.
There were, in the life of Charles Ed- mund Bond, elements of completion and of aims unattained ; completion in that he had won in absolute friendship the regard and esteem of his associates, and aims un- attained in that a life of promise was cut down in its prime. Mr. Bond was widely known in Hartford through his incum- bency of a government position and of- ficial connection with one of the city's industrial organizations, and although a decade has passed since his calling, his memory is held as the valued possession of those associated with him. Connecti- cut, in her history from the planting of
Colonial settlements to the present, has no fairer pages than those upon which are written the lives of such men as. Charles Edmund Bond.
Mr. Bond was a son of Austin A. Bond, his father a member of the staff of a bank- ing institution of North Adams, Massa- chusetts, and also connected with the municipal government. Austin A. Bond was the father of other children, includ- ing James, Alfred, John, Edward A., Jen- nie, married Thomas Syke, and resides in Rockville, Connecticut, and Nellie, de- ceased.
Charles Edmund Bond was born in North Adams, Massachusetts, September 30, 1865. His education was completed in the North Adams High School. He then assisted his father in building the Hoosic tunnel. Later he entered the Bos- ton office of the Fitchburg railroad, where he remained for a number of years before joining the Internal Revenue Department, being assigned to duty in Hartford, Con- necticut. During this time his home was first in Boston, then for two years in Brook- line, and subsequently, and until his death, in Hartford. Here he became an incor- porator of the Spencer Turbine Cleaner Company, and as treasurer of this organ- ization labored diligently to advance its. interests, bearing a heavy share of respon- sibility in its management. His associates in the world of affairs found him depend- able and responsible, and his adherence to lofty business standards won him a reputation throughout the district. Broad avenues of usefulness opened before him, and his genial nature and unfailing good temper caused many hands to be out- stretched in cordial cooperation. All whose acquaintance with him extended beyond the casual felt him a loyal friend, and this friendliness he proved under many conditions when its value counted most heavily. He was a Republican in.

political sympathy, although he never en- tered public life as an office-holder, and his clubs were the Hartford, Hartford Golf, and Farmington Country. He was a communicant of Centre Congregational Church.
Mr. Bond married, in Rockville, Con- necticut, April 15, 1896, Lizzie Sykes, daughter of George and Sarah A. (Fit- ton) Sykes, of Rockville.
Mr. Bond died in Hartford, Connecti- cut, June 22, 1912. In the hours free from business cares there was no place that had greater attraction for him than his home, and here the qualities that en- deared him to all found their fullest ex- pression. He is survived by his wife, who resides at No. 846 Prospect avenue, Hart- ford.
KENNEY, Michael Joseph, Undertaker.
In the career of Michael Joseph Ken- ney, undertaker, of New Britain, Connec- ticut, there is much worthy of emulation by the coming generation. Mr. Kenney was born in New Britain, August 20, 1868, son of John and Catherine (Flan- nigan) Kenney. His father was born in County Connaught, Ireland, and grew to manhood on a farm in that country, com- ing to America as a young man. After settling in New Britain, he secured a posi- tion taking charge of the estate of the late Horace Brown and for thirty-eight consec- utive years faithfully fulfilled his duties. He married Catherine Flannigan, daugh- ter of Michael Flannigan, born in County Clare, and they were the parents of the following children: Patrick W .; Michael J., of whom further; Bridget; Francis ; John; James F .; Anna. The family are regular members of St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church.
Michael J. Kenney was educated in
what was called the "old town school," which is now St. Mary's Parochial School. He then entered the employ of the Rus- sell & Erwin Company and later was with the P. & F. Corbin Company and the Stanley Works. His younger years were spent in these plants, and during the ad- ministration of President Cleveland, en- tered the employ of John M. Curtin & Company, remaining with them for five years.
About a quarter of a century ago Mr. Kenney engaged in business for himself as an undertaker, and has met with well deserved success. Possessed of those qualities so essential to one engaged in his calling, Mr. Kenney is highly regarded by his fellow-citizens.
In politics he is a Democrat, and was a member of the City Commission for five years, during the administration of Mayor Landers, and has also served as a member of the Board of Public Safety. Frater- nally he is a member of the Knights of Columbus, fourth degree; the Total Ab- stinence and Benevolent Society ; Benev- olent and Protective Order of Elks; Char- ter Oak Lodge of Foresters of America; Woodmen of the World; W. A. Hardy Branch, Ancient Order of Hibernians; Bishop Tierney Assembly, of which he is at present navigator ; and St. Mary's Holy Name Society.
Mr. Kenney married Mary Agnes Kel- ley, daughter of John Kelley, of New Britain, and their children are: William J .; Catherine Agnes; and Mary.

prominent scion of this family and for his time to this work. He was at one time many years one of the leading citizens of East Hartford, Edward Brewer, was born there September 16, 1849, and at his death, December 9, 1911, he was sincerely mourned. Mr. Brewer was a direct de- scendant of the early Colonial Brewer family, and was a son of Janeway Brewer, born at Hockanum, Connecticut, April 24, 1810, died January 14, 1892. He was a carpenter by occupation and engaged in contract work. Several homes in East Hartford and vicinity were built by him, and he was among the well known men of his day. Mr. Brewer married, Febru- ary 7, 1833, Sarah Marble, born July 10, 18II, died December 16, 1857.
Edward Brewer attended the public schools of East Hartford and Wells Acad- emy. When he was a boy of eight years, his mother died, and he was thirteen years old when he went to live with the family of Ira Hills. As was the custom with the boys of that period, he went to work at an early age, his first position being as clerk in a grocery store. Later Mr. Brewer learned and worked at the trade of carpen- ter, until he was twenty-four years of age. He then engaged in the meat business and as his business grew admitted a partner. When his sons grew to manhood, they were admitted to the business, one in 1903, when the firm name was E. Brewer & Son. In 1908 he took the other son in partner- ship, at which time he sold his interests to his sons and retired from active business cares, the firm becoming Brewer Brothers. In the public life of East Hartford Mr. Brewer was always to be found in a fore- most place; he had the interests of his community at heart and was never too busy to lend aid, either through his time or finances, to the furthering of a welfare movement. He was also several times honored with public office, and after re- tiring from his business devoted much of
