Mr Gardner is a communicant in the Protestant Episcopal Church, and has done much to promote the interests of that church in his vicinity. He de- votes his time to agriculture, and his farm, which is in a splendid state of cultivation, plainly shows the benefit of his attention. He uses all the latest improvements in labor and time-saving machinery, and the farm is thoroughly stocked with fine breeds of horses and cattle. Mr Gardner's industry and attention to his farm has brought him excellent re- turns, and the future presents prospects upon which he may well be congratulated.
EDWARD SPARROW SNOW, M. D., the subject of this sketch, is a native of Austinburg, Ashtabula County, Ohio, where he was born July 5, 1820. His parents, Sparrow and Clara (Kneeland) Snow, were natives of Massachusetts, of English
descent, and were married in Sandersfield, Berkshire County, in 1811. They emigrated to Ohio in 1817, and settled in Ashtabula County, on wild land, which, by the most arduous labor, was cleared and made into a fertile farm. Here they raised a family of four girls and four boys, and here they lived until separated by the death of Mrs. Snow.
The early part of the life of Edward S. was passed at hard work on the farm, with such school- ing as could be obtained at the district school, until 1838, when the young man, feeling that he desired some other avocation, and realizing that an educa- tion must be the foundation, entered the Grand River Institute, where he graduated with honors in 1842. While at this institute he displayed the pluck and energy which has characterized his whole life, for he not only supported himself, but paid for his tuition, bought his books, clothes, etc., and had saved $25 when he finished.
Not having decided on a profession, and having been one of the most expert in the class of survey- ing, and understanding and liking the business of a surveyor, he thought that if he could combine pleasure with profit in traveling through the almost unknown West, that it might be advantageous, and with this end in view, made application for a posi- tion as one of the governmental surveyors of the Northwest Territory. This application was made through his representative in Congress, Joshua R. Giddings, the well-known anti-slavery politician. About this time an intimate friend was taken with a serious and protracted illness, during which he was faithfully nursed by Edward, who, becoming greatly interested in watching the effects of the remedies administered, was strongly advised by the attending physician to take up the study of medicine, and this advice was followed after careful consideration. Before commencing his medical studies he spent two years in teaching school, spending a year each at Palmyra and at Jefferson, Ohio. This work finished, he began preparing himself for his chosen profession, under the tutorship of Dr. O. K. Hawley, and in 1847 graduated from the Western Reserve Medical College, at Cleveland, Ohio. Still thinking the West the place for the young man who had his own way to make in the world, he determined to go to Missouri, but just as he was starting, he was requested by a friend to go to Plymouth, Wayne County, Michigan, and take charge of the practice of Dr. Markham, who wished to take a vacation to recuperate his health. From Plymouth he soon removed to his present home in Dearborn, arriving with but a slender supply of medicine furnished by Dr Markham, and in debt for the horse that he rode. Here he was successful from the start, and soon found himself in possession of all the practice that he could attend to. The year following he was

appointed surgeon in charge of the United States arsenal, located at Dearborn, and with the exception of the next year, held that position twenty-five years, until the abandonment of the arsenal by the government, and at one time he had over 1,400 men under his care.
He was married on October 22, 1850, to Elizabeth Austin, of Austinburg, Ohio. They had two chil- dren, Herbert Montgomery and Edward Auch- muty. The last named died on September 8, 1884.
When he first located at Dearborn, the Michigan Central Railroad was completed only to Dexter, and was about the only railroad in Michigan. The country was covered with forests, almost the only roads were bridle paths through the woods, and for a number of years nearly all his traveling was done on horseback. In 1857, having bonght a large tract of land in the outskirts of the village, he built his present home, and has resided there continuously since that time. Shortly after coming to Dearborn, hs was appointed one of the surgeons of the Michi- gan Central Railroad, a position he has held for the last forty-three years. He has long been a member of the State Medical Society, has held an office in that body several times, and has been its repre- sentative in the meetings af the National Medical Association held at Washington, Louisville, Buffalo, Chicago, New York, St. Paul and Detroit ; has also been a member of the Wayne County Medical Society since its organization, and has been an official of that body a number of times. In 1876, at a meeting of the Medical Alumni of the Uni- versity of Michigan, he was unanimously elected a member of that body. There is but one physician in Michigan who has been in practice as long as Dr. Snow, and while his strength will not permit him to do as much work as formerly, he is still in practice.
While not a politician, he has always taken an active interest in politics, and has always been a staunch Republican. He has had some experience in military matters, having served two years as Adjutant of the First Rifle Regiment, Second Brigade and Twenty-first Division of Ohio, under Colonel Tracy and General Stearns. During the late war he promised to attend, and did attend, as physician, free of charge, to any family furnishing a volunteer to the Federal army, during the absence of the volunteer, or in case of death, during the war. His travels through the United States and Europe have been extensive. On his last trip to Europe he
inspected very thoroughly the Paris Exposition, and met some of the most eminent surgeons in the world.
Dr. Snow has never used tobacco or intoxicating drinks in any form, and has always been a strong advocate of temperance. His character has always been of unswerving integrity, and his successful life shows that no boy with resolution and industry need fear failure.
JOHN B. WALLACE was born on October 22, 1809, at Pultney, Steuben County, New York, and is the son of Samuel and Elizabeth Wallace, both of whom were natives of Saratoga County, New York. He received his education in the district school, and when twenty-one years of age began teaching. After one year's service as a teacher, he came to Michigan, settling in Dearborn in 1831. He subsequently engaged in lumbering in the woods on Black River, and on his return to Dearborn pur- chased a lumber mill and continued to operate it until 1870. In connection therewith he also worked a large and well-stocked farm, Although unusually busy with his own affairs, Mr. Wallace performed the duties of Justice of the Peace for sixteen years, served as Highway Commissioner for a long period, and in 1859 was elected a member of the State Legislature, serving one term, He has also been Postmaster of Wallaceville, where he resides, for more than twenty-five consecutive years, and still holds the office Mr. Wallace has been a Republican in politics since the birth of that party, and, to use his own words, "is a stronger Republican than ever."
In June, 1838, he married Irene M. Nelson, of Manchester, New York. They have had ten chil- dren, namely, Howard H., Jesse N., and Albert A. ; the last was killed in the battle of the Wilderness. The other children were Amasa E., John A., Samuel E., William M., Alice A., Annette I., and Floretta F.
He once suffered a severe loss by fire, which swept away three thousand dollars worth of his prop- erty, but by hard work and strict attention to his business, Mr. Wallace has accumulated a compe- tence, and, better than this, has the esteem of his neighbors. He is one of the oldest inhabitants in his part of the country, possesses an approachable, genial disposition, makes friends easily, and retains them as surely. Although upwards of eighty years old, he is still mentally alert and vigorous, and loves to recall the struggles of the past, and contrast them with present and future prospects and achievements.

ECORCE TOWNSHIP.
This township was first created on April 12, 1827, and then included also what is now the township of Taylor. The township now known as Taylor was detached from Ecorce by Act of April, 1847. The first township meeting for Ecorce township was held at the house of Daniel Goodell, on Monday, May 28, 1827.
