BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.

BENJAMIN DRAKE.

The first settler in the town of Oshtemo settled on Grand Prairie in 1830. He was born in Sandy Town, Sussex Co., N. J., Jan. 10, 1787. His opportunities for an education were limited to the district schools of his native town. Arrived at majority, Mr. Drake started in life for himself. Going to the head-waters of the Dela- ware River he engaged in the lumber business, which he fol-

lowed very successfully for nine years, making what was for that day a fortune. The war of 1812 came on, and the spirit of speculation ran rife, wheat and lands went up, and many made large investments in real estate, Mr. Drake among the rest, expecting to increase his wealth. The war closed, everything went down, and Mr. Drake saw his money swept away to the last dollar. The year 1817 he spent in traveling through the West. He then returned, and for a time worked at whatever he could get to do, and in this way again made a start. In 1820, Mr. Drake, with his wife and two children, moved to Ohio, and settled on 160 acres of land, ten miles from Sandusky City. On the farm he then owned is situated the Sandusky plaster-beds. The location proving an unhealthy one he sold, and in 1824 moved to Newport, St. Clair Co., Mich., where he remained six years, engaged in raising and dealing in cattle and work- ing land on shares. Mr. Drake, with his family, on the 1st day of September, 1830, arrived at Grand Prairie, and set- tled on the northeast quarter of section 13, in Oshtemo. The land was not in the market at that time, and was still occupied by the Indians. The following year the govern- ment offered the land for sale, and Mr. Drake bid in the land without opposition. With the help of the Indians he erected a log house, which was the first white habita- tion on the prairie. The Indians were very friendly, but Mr. Drake about that time had an adventure which will be of interest. He was on his way to White Pigeon to enter his land, when he passed a couple of Indians. He paid no attention to them, and had got nearly past them when one of them seized him by the shoulder and tried to draw his knife, the only weapon he had. The other was armed with a gun. Mr. Drake caught the Indian by the wrist, and, being very strong, he pressed his thumb into the cords of the Indian's wrist with such force that he could do noth- ing. He then walked backwards, drawing his man with him and keeping him between his person and the one with the gun. He drew him over the brow of a little hill, where he in- tended to knock him down with a hickory cane he carried, and then make his escape. At that moment a Mr. Cam- pau, an Indian trader from Grand Rapids, rode up, accom- panied by his servant, and called out to him to look out or he would be killed. Mr. Drake replied, " I am going to knock him down with my cane." Mr. Campau begged him to desist, saying he would talk to the Indians and detain them until he was away. This he did, talking in their own language. Mr. Drake learned afterwards that the Indians had been offended by a white man, and were going to be revenged on the first white man they met. He happened to be the one, and but for the opportune arrival of Mr. Campau he would perhaps have lost his life. Years have passed since then, and the Indians have either gone to the happy hunting-grounds of their fathers or moved to the far West. The prairie farm of two hundred acres, settled by Mr. Drake, has become a splendid farm of five hundred acres, with the beautiful village of Kalamazoo but three miles away, and is one of the best farms in the county. Then unbroken prairies and forests extended for miles. Now, in their stead, may be seen cleared fields, palatial homes, schools, and churches. The howl of the wolf has been succeeded by the hum of machinery and the whistle

of the steam-engine. All these changes Mr. Drake has lived to see, and now, in the ninety-fourth year of his age, he is enjoying the fruits of many years of toil and hard- ships. His wealth has been acquired, not by speculation, but by hard work and close attention to business. He stands high as a man of sterling worth and strict integrity. He is a Republican, but has never taken an active part in pol- itics.

Mr. Drake married, Dec. 19, 1819, Miss Maria Ogden, who was born Feb. 22, 1799, at the bay of Quinté, Prov- ince of Ontario, Canada. There have been born to them children, as follows : Francis, Elizabeth, Benjamin, George N., Jane, Maria, and James Fitch.

ANSEL SNOW

was born in Bridgewater, Mass., May 4, 1784. Arrived at manhood, he moved to Oswego Co., N. Y., and bought a farm near what is now the city of Oswego. On this farm he resided till 1837, when he sold out, and in the month of February started with his wife and seven children for Michigan. They came with sleighs, arriving in Kalama- zoo, March 16, 1837. Mr. Snow had been out the fall be- fore and bought of the government eighty acres in Osh- temo, and one hundred and twenty acres in Kalamazoo townships. They were four weeks on the road, and found good sleighing all the way. The farm was all new, and there were no buildings; a log house soon went up, and into it the family moved, feeling that they then had a home all their own. Mr. Snow could not do hard labor, having lost his health in the lumber woods of Canada. This was a great disadvantage, but with hired help and the assist- ance of his boys he improved and left a fine farm. In 1840 he sold his Kalamazoo land and moved into Osh- temo, upon land near that now owned by Alpheus Snow. He resided on this farm until his death, Oct. 15, 1864. Mr. Snow is spoken of by his old neighbors as a man whose life was above reproach, and whose death was a loss to the community. He married Arbelia Wilmarth, who was born in Massachusetts, May 27, 1795.

Orrin Snow, the child of Ansel Snow, was born in New Haven, Oswego Co., N. Y., Sept. 27, 1829. He came West with his father, being then eight years of age, and he may be called a pioneer of Oshtemo, his childhood, youth, and manhood having been mostly passed there. When he settled, schools were few, hence his chances for an education were very limited ; yet he has acquired enough to fit him for the active and successful business life he has since led. Arrived at the age of twenty-two, he started business for himself, før several seasons running a breaking-team. In the spring of 1853, in company with eight others, he went to California by the overland route. The party was six months on the road, and experienced the hardships and excitements incident to an overland trip at that time. He engaged in mining, but, not meeting with the success he had anticipated, he took passage in a steamer for home, the voyage occupying a month. After his return he made a trip through Iowa and Minnesota, but, finding no place that suited him as well as Michigan, he returned and bought two hundred and thirty acres of land in Oshtemo,

near the home of his boyhood. To this he has added until he owns four hundred and fifty acres of fine land. Two hundred acres he has improved, and built a fine house with many and commodious outbuildings. Mr. Snow has for several years been engaged in raising blooded cattle, and has now as fine a herd as can be found in the county, tak- ing first premium at the fairs in Plainwell and Kalamazoo, in 1879. In politics Mr. Snow is a stalwart Republican. He was formerly a Whig. He has been justice of the peace, town treasurer and supervisor, and is an influential and energetic citizen. He was married on the 16th day of April, 1856, to Catherine M. Hill, daughter of Augustus H. and Catherine (Chandler) Hill, who was born in El- bridge, Onondaga Co., N. Y., Oct. 18, 1835. There have been born to them four children, as follows : Milo A., Jan. 12, 1858; Frank, July 14, 1864, died Sept. 20, 1866; Freddie, July 10, 1869, died Aug. 27, 1869 ; and Katy, Dec. 22, 1874.

ISAAC GIBBS.

Among the earliest settlers in the town of Oshtemo was ' Isaac Gibbs, who settled in the southeast corner of the town in the spring of 1833, having entered his land the fall be- fore. He was born in Otsego Co., N. Y., in the town of Middlefield, on the 19th day of February, A.D. 1799. His father was a farmer, and with him Isaac remained until he was twenty-one years old, working on the farm summers and attending the district school winters. When he was twenty-eight years of age he married Miss Phoebe Wal- dorff, who was born in the town of Romulus, Seneca Co., N. Y., May 10, 1806. When Mr. Gibbs started in life he had nothing but what nature had given him,-a good con- stitution and energy. At the time of his marriage he had accumulated a few hundred dollars, which were invested in a small piece of land. This he sold, and in company with his brother Chester bought a farm in the town of Hume, county of Allegany. The farm was on the Genesee River, and was a part of the Indian reservation, on which the In- dians were still living, although they had sold to the gov- ernment. The brothers rafted an old carding-mill down the river to the new farm. It was soon put up, and in it the newly-married couple commenced housekeeping, though there were no doors or windows. The brothers worked early and late, and soon had a large share of the farm im- proved. As above set forth, Mr. Gibbs came to Michigan in 1830. He was accompanied by his brothers,-John and Chester. They landed in Detroit, and, with their packs on their backs, started out to find them a home. They went to Adrian, and from thence north towards Grand Rapids. On Gun Plains they made a selection, and started for Mon- roe to enter their land. As they were crossing Grand Prairie they met a Mr. Taft, who told them that they could do better in Oshtemo, and referred them to Mr. Harris, a colored man, who claimed to be the first settler in Genesee Prairie. Mr. Harris left his team in the field and went with the men he hoped to have for neighbors to show them the best land then for sale. They were so well pleased that they at once selected three eighty-acre lots on section 25, in Oshtemo, and thirty-one in Kalamazoo. Isaac and Chester

had made the selection, leaving John under a tree, he hav- ing declared he would tramp no more. They reported to him the selection they had made, and asked him to go and see it, but he declined, saying that if it was good enough for them it was for him. They entered the land, which was all they had means to buy, and that fall John and Chester settled on the land, leaving Isaac behind, in New York, to settle up their business. During the winter of 1832 and 1833, Chester, who was unmarried, built a log house for Isaac, into which he took his family, June 3, 1833. The house was erected on the one hundred and sixty acres, entered by Isaac and Chester, and now owned by Isaac's son, Marcus. The brothers at once commenced to break up and improve their land, and soon fields of waving grain took the place of the unbroken prairie and the wilderness. Their place was for years the free home of new-comers who were looking for homes, and who always found the latch-string in Gibbs' mansion hanging out. The three lots first bought were added to, until the brothers, at one time, owned one thousand acres. In 1840, Isaac and Chester, who both had families, divided up their lands, . which was done in a few moments, and satisfactory to both. Mr. Gibbs was an active, energetic man and popular with his neighbors, who still speak of him as an enterprising, public-spirited man, respected by all. He took an active part in politics, but would never accept an office. He died Oct. 20, 1873, mourned by a large circle of friends. There were born to Mr. and Mrs. Gibbs four children, as follows : Mary, born Oct. 5, 1828, married to Horace Rawlson, and now living in Kalamazoo; Esther, July 6, 1830, married to John L. L. Findley, died Dec. 13, 1861 ; Harriet, Dec. 14, 1831, married to Almond Ralston, and now residing in Oshtemo village ; and Marcus, Aug. 10, 1845. He mar- ried Miss Irene Fitzsimmons, and is now living in Oshtemo village.

JOHN J. LUSK

was born in the township of Hunter, Greene Co., N. Y., Oct. 30, 1828. His father, George W. Lusk, was born in East Bloomfield, Ontario Co., N. Y., Dec. 28, 1799. When he was eleven years old his father took him and his two brothers to Fort Niagara and enlisted them in the regular army. George W. served five years as a fifer and was in the war of 1812. He was discharged at Buffalo in 1815, and went to Rensselaerville, Albany Co., N. Y., where he learned the blacksmith trade. In 1854 he came to Michigan and bought a farm near Kalamazoo, on which he lived four years, when he sold, and in 1865 went to California, where he died, June 9, 1866. John J. grew to manhood in Niagara Co., N. Y., receiving a common-school education, yet making such good use of his opportunities that he afterwards taught school ten terms,-four in New York, one in Oregon, and five in Michigan. In 1854 he came to Michigan with his father and worked on the farm until 1857, when he went to California, where he worked on a farm a short time. In June, 1858, he joined the Frazier

River expedition, but only went as far as Oregon, where he remained until 1859, when he returned to Michigan and soon after bought what was known as the Pierson farm, two hundred acres of which he still owns and resides upon, and part of which he has improved. He has added a fine house and one of the best barns in the township. In poli- tics Mr. Lusk was in early life a Whig. On the formation of the Republican party he joined its ranks, and has since been a supporter of its principles. He has four times rep- resented his township in the Board of Supervisors, filling the office to the satisfaction of his fellow-townsmen. He has been town treasurer and highway commissioner, and also for many years school inspector. He married, May 9, 1861, Miss Lydia Tallmadge, daughter of Gardner and Delilah (Jeffords) Tallmadge, who was born in Erie Co., Pa., Feb. 26, 1842. There have been born to them three children,-Ada F., born April 29, 1863 ; Minnie F., April 23, 1867 ; and Clarence J., Sept. 29, 1872.

ISAAC L. ROOT

was born in Greenwich township, Fairfield Co., Conn., July 26, 1839. His father, John D. Root, was born in Pennsylvania, where he lived until he was nineteen years old. He then went to Fairfield Co., Conn., and engaged in farming, and became the owner of a small farm, which he sold in 1858, and with his family moved to Michigan and located the farm he now owns on the southwest quarter of section 1, in Oshtemo. Isaac grew to manhood in Connecticut, going to school winters and working on his father's farm summers, until he was seventeen years old, when he commenced to learn the mason's trade, which he has since followed. When the family came to Michigan he came also, and in 1865 bought the northeast quarter of the northwest quarter of section 12, which he has improved, and upon which he has built one of the fine houses for which Oshtemo is noted. Mr. Root confines himself almost entirely to his trade, jobbing mostly, yet managing his farm very successfully. In politics Mr. Root is a Republican, and of the stalwart kind, though he has never taken an active part in political matters. He takes a good deal of interest in schools, and was for six years one of the school officers. On the 11th day of September, 1862, Mr. Root married Hannah Isadore Kingsley, daughter of Moses and Hannah (Wil- liams) Kingsley. She was born in Oshtemo, Jan. 9, 1844. Her father was among the first settlers of Oshtemo, and is a prominent man. He has been for many years secretary of the Farmers' Mutual Insurance Company of Kalamazoo, and is now a resident of the village of Kalamazoo. He was born in Brighton, Mass., March 5, 1810; came to Michigan in 1830, and to Oshtemo in 1836. There have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Isaac L. Root the following- named children : Herbert L., Aug. 9, 1865 ; Myron, May 4, 1867; Bertha, Sept. 18, 1872; and Luella, Sept. 13, 1875.

NATURAL FEATURES.

Geography .- The township of Pavilion is bounded on the north by Comstock, south by Brady, east by Climax, and west by Portage. A survey of the township was made in 1827 by Robert Clark, Jr., but the presence of the sur- veyor had no immediate influence upon its early settlement. For many years after the country remained an unbroken wilderness, with no inhabitants save the Indians, who traversed the forest in pursuit of game, and seldom pitched their wigwams for any length of time in the township.

Lakes and Water-Courses .- A considerable part of the surface of the township is covered by water. Seven lakes diversify its surface, chief among which is Long Lake, on the western side, embracing portions of sections 17, 18, 19, 20, and 30. This lake drains into Austin Lake, in Port- age. Indian Lake lies partly in this township and partly in Brady. Northwest of it is Pickerel Lake, situated on sections 32 and 33. Mud Lake lies near the southeast corner, on sections 26 and 35, while East Lake is the prin- cipal body of water on the north side, and is situated on sections 4, 5, 8, and 9. The waters of these lakes abound in excellent fish, and are much frequented by lovers of piscatorial sport.

The most important stream is Portage Creek, which rises in the township of Charleston, flows southwest, then south, and empties into Indian Lake. Continuing its course through the township of Brady, it flows into St. Joseph County, where, with other streams, it forms the Portage River. Beaver Creek runs through the southeast corner of the township, and also discharges into Indian Lake. In the northwest corner is a small stream, which pours its waters into East Lake.

Soil .- The soil varies in different localities. The south- east corner, a portion of the west side, and a tract of land on the north are marshy. These marshes, which seemed during the early settlement of the land to present formid- able obstacles to its improvement, have since been drained, and with continuous cultivation made productive. The southeast portion is a sandy, gravelly loam, and easily tilled, requiring much less labor than the strong clay soil which abounds in other portions of the township.

Two-thirds of the timbered land embraces oak openings. Beech, elm, white oak, maple, ash, and black walnut attain great size. The census for 1874 gives the number of acres of wheat harvested in 1873 at 3102, and of corn, 1211. This gave a total yield of 47,226 bushels of wheat, and 42,182 bushels of corn, which is fully equal to the average yield in the county.

ORGANIZATION.

The following transcript is made from the township records dated April 4, 1836 :

"The electors of the township of Pavilion met according to law on the Fourth day of April, in the year of our Lord One Thousand Eight Hundred and Thirty-six, and organized the said township by comply- ing with the requisition of the law expressed in the thirty-sixth section of an act entitled 'An act to organize certain townships,' and ad- journed the meeting until the first Monday in April next, to meet at the dwelling-house of Elijah Root, in said township. The first town- ship-meeting was held, in pursuance to the above adjournment, in April of the following year."

The township when first organized included the present territory of Pavilion and Portage townships, and continued thus until 1838, when a division was made and Portage became a separate township.
