BARTON MAJOR, Warren, whose portrait appears in this work, was born in Rochester, N. Y., Aug. 13, 1822. At the age of five liis parents moved to Sandy Creek, west of Rochester, remaining there three years, when they removed to near "Daw's Corners," four miles north of Ba- tavia, N. Y. In the year 1832 they again moved to near North East, Erie Co., Pa., where his father died. The subject of this sketch in the year 1839 went to Watertown, Canada, and was engaged for three years as a millwright. In 1842 he went to Lock- port, N. Y., and carried on the grocery business until he moved to Chicago, in 1845, where he followed the auction business. In the Spring of 1849, a freshet having carried off all the bridges there, Mr. Barton started a ferry across the river where the Lake Street Bridge now stands. The city soon purchased the ferry, when Mr. Bar- ton went to Rockford, and was proprietor of a hack line between that city and Elgin, then the terminus of the Chicago & Ga- lena Union R. R. He followed up the terminus of the railroad and settled at Warren, in the livery business, in the year 1853, where he lias since remained for a quarter of a century. In 1873 he built the well-known and popular hotel, the " Barton House," of which lie still remains
proprietor. As a public spirited citizen, he has always been ready to help any enterprise.that would benefit Warren. It is to the enterprise and energy of such men that this Western country owes its ad- vancement and prosperity. He married Harriet A. Stowell, in Warren, Sept. 5, 1859. She was born in Paris, Me., May 16, 1832. They had six children; three dead, Jessie and Bessie (twins) and Belle; three living: Lola B., Josephine S. and Major Arthur.

mental culture, and intellectual pursuits ; notwithstanding the disadvantages for ed- ucation incident to a new country, he suc- ceeded, by his own efforts, in acquiring a liberal education,and particularly succeed- ed in the science of mathematics, and was skilled as a surveyor; modest and unas- suming in his manner, he continued the pursuits of a private citizen, mostly en- gaged in farming, until the Fall of 1859, when he was nominated for the office of Co.
