MR. PATRICK McHUGO
came to Waseca when a boy about five years of age. He was born in Ireland in 1854. His mother died before he was two years old. Soon after his mother's death, his father, Lawrence McHugo, came to America and lived for a time iu Janesville township. He then made a claim in losco, on section 31, in 1863, and permanently settled thereon in Nov. 1866, where Patrick now resides. Patrick McHugo and Miss Mary Kinney were married In November 1880. Her father was Michael Kinney, one of the very early settlers of Janesville, who died in Jan. 1897. Mrs. Mc- Hugo was born in the town of Janesville In 1858. She is the mother of

four sons and three daughters. Mr. McHugo was an only son and In- herited his father's estate which he had helped to create. He was demo- cratic candidate in his district for county commissioner in the fall of 1904 and made a strong run against an overwhelming republican majority.
THE HONORABLE R. L. McCORMICK.
[From the National Cyclopedia of American Biography.]
Robert Laird McCormick, financier, was born on a farm near Lock Haven, Clinton county, Pa., Oct. 29, 1847, son of Alexander and Jane Hayes (Laird) McCormick. The north of Ireland was the home of his remote ancestors-pious, industrious Protestants of Scotch origin. From that region his great-grandfather, John McCormick, emigrated to Chester county, Pa., in 1750. John McCormick became a private in the Revolu- tionary army.
Robert Laird McCormick wasteducated chiefly at Saunder's Institute, Philadelphia, and Tuscarora Academy, Mifflin, Pa., but left school before graduation. While he was a school boy, his father served in the Civil War with the Ninth Minnesota regiment, the family having removed to the Northwest. At the age of eighteen, Robert began to earn his own liv- ing hy working as a clerk in the employ of the Philadelphia & Erie Rail- road at Lewisburg, Pa. In 1868 he moved to Winona, Minn., taking charge of the Laird & Norton Lumber company office. In 1874 his health became impaired by the confinement of office work and he removed to Waseca, Minn., where he bought a retail lumber yard. This he operated until 1881, at the same time doing the auditing for Laird & Norton, whose lumber yards were scattered through Minnesota and Wisconsin. He also established for them new lumber yards, in some of which he retained an interest. In 1881, with others, he incorporated the North Wisconsin Lum- ber company and became its secretary, treasurer, and manager. Its mill at Hayward, Wis., had a daily capacity of nearly 500,000 feet of lumber. Still adding to his responsibilities, Mr. McCormick, in connection with Frederick Weyerhaeuser, established the Sawyer County bank, of which he became president, having in 1882 removed to Hayward. In 1893 he became president of the Northern Boom company, at Brainerd, Minn .; president of the Mississippi & Rum River Boom company; vice-president of the St. Paul Boom company, St. Paul, Minn .; vice president of the Flam- heau Land company, Chippewa, Wis .; secretary and treasurer of the North- ern Grain company, of Chicago, Ill., with warehouses in Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska and the Dakotas; treasurer of the New Richmond Mill company, (flour) New Richmond, Wis. In 1899 the Weyerhaeuser Tim- ber company was organized and Mr. McCormick became its secretary and western manager. This company has acquired all the timber lands belonging to the Northern Pacific Railway company west of the Cascade mountains, including 1,300,000 acres in Washington, and is buying the remainder of the railroad's grants as fast as surveyed.
Meanwhile Mr. McCormick has taken an active part in civic and polit-
726

ical affairs. In 1876 he was elected president of the village council of Waseca, and in 1881, as senator, secured the passage of the bill for the incorporation of the city. He was mayor of Waseca, serving until 1880, when he was elected to the state senate, where he served for two ses- sions. For five years he was president of the school board of Hayward, and was president of Ashland academy at Ashland, Wis .; also president of the Hayward library association and vice-president of the Wisconsin State Historical society, which he also served in 1901-04 as president. His deep interest in the American Indian led him to agitate for and finally secure through congress the establishment at Hayward of schools for the Chippewa tribe. In 1904 Mr. McCormick removed to Tacoma, Wash., and in 1905 resigned his offices in the eastern corporations already men- tioned, to devote himself to the Weyerhaeuser Timber company's inter- ests in Washington, and the Lumbermen's National bank of Tacoma, of which he is president. He is also president of the Washington State Historical society, having been elected in 1905. Mr. McCormick is a republican in politics, and in 1900 was a delegate from Wisconsin to the national convention of Philadelphia. He is a thirty-two degree Mason, a Mystic Shriner and a Knight Templar, serving as its grand commander in Minnesota for one term, 1881 and 1882; a member also of the Sons of Veterans, of the Washington society of the Sons of the American Revolu- tion, and of the Chicago Chapter of the Society of the War of 1812. He has published a "History of Journalism in Sawyer County, Wisconsin" (18 .. ) and with Prof. James G. Adams, a "History of the Schools of Saw- yer county," (18 .. ) Mr. McCormick writing the chapters devoted to the Indian schools. He is an attendant of the Congregational church.
Mr. McCormick was married at Tiffin, Ohio, Sept. 10, 1870, to Anna E. daughter of Daniel and Minerva (Mills) Goodman. They have had three children, William Laird, Robert Allen, and Blanche Amelia. The daugh- ter died in infancy.
MR. GEORGE H. WOOD.
Mr. Wood is one of the most extensive and prosperous dairymen in the county, his dairy farm being situated just east of Waseca. He was born in Wisconsin, Sept. 29, 1849. His father and family settled in Woodville June 11, 1866. George is one of the sons of Ezra H. and Catharine (Gamble) Wood, the former born in Massachusetts May 1, 1814. and the latter in the state of New York, Sept. 15, 1820. Ezra died Oct. 11, 1885, and George's mother, Sept. 29, 1886. George married Miss Jennie Dever- ell, of Woodville, July 4, 1877. She was a Badger state girl, born Dec. 22, 1857. Mr. and Mrs. Wood are known in the state as high-grade butter makers and first-class dairy managers, their butter always commanding the highest market price. They are the parents of six children, four sons and two daughters: Casper A., born Feb. 2. 1879; Augusta A., Jan. 6, 1883; Frank G., Sept. 29, 1885; Effie, Jan. 18, 1888; Ezra, March 21, 1892: William, Oct. 6, 1893. Casper A. and Augusta A. are graduates ot
727
CHILD'S HISTORY OF WASECA COUNTY.
the agricultural department of the state university. Augusta A. married Mr. Louis J. Sheldon, July 6, 1904, and they reside on one of her father's farms. For a number of years Mr. Wood has been treasurer of the town of Woodville, which is a very responsible position, as he holds and handles a large amount of money now in the sinking fund to pay off railroad bonds issued years ago. In the summer of 1905 he bought a house in Waseca and now occupies it with his family. His sons Casper and Frank, manage the farm near town. Casper was married to Miss Lottie Snyder, August 16, 1905.
MR. PATRICK MURPHY.
This energetic, old-time settler of Alton, was born in Ireland and came to America in early life. We first learn of him in Milwaukee, Wis., where he was married. The family came to Alton in 1865, and settled on the northeast shore of Buffalo Lake. Here he opened a large farm where he continued to reside the remainder of his life. His wife died Oct. 12, 1887, and he died March 5, 1894, at an advanced age. They were the parents of six sons and two daughters-Rose, now Mrs. Thos. Lynch, Ellen, John H., Hugh S., Robert, Peter, James C., and Patrick Joseph. Hugh S. and Robert were twins as were Peter and James C. John H. was born in Dodge county, Wis., in 1858. His wife was Miss Jennie A. Markham, daughter of Mr. Patrick Markham, one of the early and success- ful farmers of Alton, near Alma City. She was born in Ireland. Mr. John H. Murphy is largely engaged in raising fine stock, especially Angora goats, horses and Short Horn cattle. He is one of the wealthy, solid farmers of the county, and a stockholder and director in the Janesville Waseca County bank.
MR. TERRENCE LILLY.
Among Waseca county pioneers was Terrence Lilly, who, with his family, settled close to what then was the eastern border of the Winne- bago Indian Reservation, in St. Mary. He was a cooper by trade, and in 1849, taking his family and a few tools, he left his native city of Ennis- killen, Ireland, that he and his might enjoy the blessings and privileges of a free country. For six years he followed his trade in Cincinnati, Ohio. He then moved westward to Lacon, Ill., and two years later concluded that Minnesota farm life offered peculiar inducements and so, early in the year 1857, he came to this state. Living near a populous Indian res- ervation offers a great field for the imagination of romantic boys. It didn't require a curfew ordinance in those days to call the children in at night, and it is recorded that even men in those days kept good hours. Every age and time has its utilities. Now, the city parent reminds the young hopeful to look out for the policeman, but in those early days, to secure good order and early hours, a mother had but to speak of Indians. The old settler still recalls Indian days and tells the newcomer that men went to bed in those days not knowing whether they would "wake up dead

or alive next morning." The trials of the Lilly family were incidental to all early settlers in ante-railroad days; but the head of the family never lost faith in the productive future of the county. His first house was a "cotton top." It caught fire one windy day and, although the alarm was promptly sounded and the boys responded with a pail of milk, there was nothing saved. A better house succeeded that one, and for this father, as for most men that patiently and willingly toil, better times were ahead. Mr. Lilly did not entirely give up his trade, for in early times a man that could make pork and sorghum barrels, and incidentally and oc- casionally a coffin for the indigent, was in demand. However, he came to Minnesota to farm and his success as a farmer was evident from the large farm he left at his death. He and his wife thoroughly cast their lot in Waseca county, for they came at an early day and never left the county except to do marketing. Both are asleep in the Catholic cemetery near Janesville. Mr. and Mrs. Lilly were reared in Enniskillen, Ireland, Mr. Lilly was born in 1808, and Mrs. Lilly, whose maiden name was Mary McManus, was born in 1822. The former died May 15, 1891, the latter Jan. 2, 1901. Seven children blessed their home: one daughter, Margaret, born March 4, 1863, died June 30, 1894; six sons-Owen, born in 1845; P. A., born in 1848; Thomas, born in 1854; B. J., born in 1856; T. J., born in 1860; and J. F., born in 1865. Terrence J. Lilly resides at St. Paul with his family and is the efficient and gentlemanly state adjuster of losses for the Continental Insurance company. B. J. Lilly resides in Waseca and is local insurance agent for the Continental. P. A. and Owen are engaged in farming and reside in Alton.
THE HONORABLE W. E. YOUNG.
This gentleman, who is now a member of the State Railroad and Ware- house Commission, was one of the early hoy settlers in the town of Freedom. His father's name is Delos P. Young and his mother was Miss Ruth Lockwood. The former was born in Massachusetts, May 11, 1838, and the latter was born Oct. 8, the same year. They were married in Wisconsin, May 27, 1858. W. E. Young was born in Adams county, Wis- consin, Oct. 26, 1861. When W. E. was three years of age, his parents movea into the town of Freedom, to a farm about a mile west of what was then called Peddler's Grove. Here the family resided for ten years when the elder Mr. Young engaged in mercantile business at Alma City, removing his family to that place. W. E. attended the country school and also served an apprenticeship as tinner. He then attended the State Nor- mal school at Mankato, and there graduated In 1881. He then commenced the study of law, reading at Mankato and St. Paul and then at the Iowa City State Law school where he graduated in 1884. He practiced law one year In Pope county, then opened a law office in Janesville, Minn., where he practiced two years. In 1887 he moved to Mankato where he has since lived and practiced his profession. For six years he was city attorney in Mankato, and for seventeen years he has been a leading attorney in

that place. He was admitted to the bar in Waseca county at the age of twenty-one years. He married Miss Nettie Shingler, of Pope county, in 1880. She is a native of Wisconsin and was reared on a farm. They are the parents of three children: two sons, nearly men grown-Paul, aged nineteen, and Donald, aged sixteen-and one daughter, Alice, aged four years. W. E. Young has long been known as one of the ablest attor- neys of the state, and he now occupies a position in which he may become very useful to the people. His father, D. P. Young, after leaving Alma City, carried on a store at Minnesota Lake, then at Rock Rapids, Iowa, and finally, for the last ten years, at Mankato. Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Young spent ine winter of 1904-05 in California. Arthur E. Young, a brother of Wm. E., is a dentist, married and living in Minneapolis. The sister of W. E. and Arthur, born in 1881, is teaching at Little Falls, Minn., at this writing. The Youngs were prominent in social and political circles in this county during their residence here, and are remembered kindly by all the early settlers of the county.
MR. THOMAS H. JOHNSON.
Mr. Johnson, who is now a leading hardware merchant in Waseca, was born in Iosco, Feb. 11, 1864. His father, Albert Johnson, was one of the early settlers, having settled in Iosco in 1856. Thomas H. was reared on the farm, but in early manhood developed a liking for machinery. He first engaged in putting down tubular wells, and then drifted into farm machinery and especially threshing outfits. He married Miss Helen Olson, daughter of Andrew Olson, of Iosco, in March 1884. They have two sons- Alfred, born Feb. 7, 1885, and John, horn in 1891-and one daughter, Clara, born in March, 1887. The family moved into Waseca about 1898. Thomas H. remained in the machinery and lightning rod business until the spring of 1904 when he accepted the appointment of city marshal of Waseca. This position he resigned in February, 1905, when he bought the extensive hardware stock of O. J. Johnson & Co., of Waseca. He carries an extensive stock of hardware and is a popular dealer.

MR. JOHN S. JOHNSON,
at present a county commissioner of this county, and grandson of John Segurdson, was born in Dane county, Wisconsin, Oct. 27, 1850. He came to this county in 1855 with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Segurd Johnson, a sketch of whose life is given elsewhere in this book. John Segurdson, John's grandfather, was one of the 1855 settlers in Iosco. He was born in 1794, and died in 1864. The grandmother was born in 1796, and died in January, 1881. John's father, Segurd Johnson, came to America in 1845, and his father and brothers came in 1850. The grandfather settled in Iosco in 1855. John's father did not come until the next year. John Segurdson had six sons-Segurd, Thomas, Torgus, Albert, John and Ole- and two daughters-Gonield and Birget. One of the daughters became the wife of Jacob Jackson, and the other the wife of Tarrel Anderson, both of them early settlers. John S. Johnson and Angelei Bagne, daugh- ter of S. O. Bagne, of the town of Iosco, were married Oct. 18, 1874. They are the parents of twelve children, six sons and six daughters-no "race suicide" there. John S. Johnson states that Mr. Tarrel Anderson, who settled in Josco in 1855, was the father of four sons and two daughters. Both Mr. Anderson and his wife died some years ago. Jacob Jackson, who married the other aunt of Mr. Johnson, also died some years ago, but Mrs. Jackson is still living. Segurd Jackson, the merchant at Palmer creamery, is her son and grandson of John Segurdson the first Nor- wegian settler in Iosco. The several branches of this family are numer- ous in this county, notwithstanding the fact that a number of them are residing elsewhere in the Northwest. Tom Johnson, an uncle of John S., was born May 23, 1833. He came to America in 1850 and lived in Dane county, Wis., until 1855, when he came to Waseca county and moved to his present homestead, in Iosco, July 5. His first wife was Mary Olson Kin, who died Jan. 16, 1869. His second wife was Miss Mary Evenson. He is the father of thirteen children-nine sons and four daughters- all of whom are living except one son. He is one of the very few left of the settlers of 1855.
MR. A. K. LEE

ninety-two acres. They have had nine children, seven of whom are liv- ing. His mother died when he was two years old, and his father died about twenty-four years ago. He is an energetic, prosperous farmer.
MR. JOHN BYRON.
The subject of this sketch was born in 1819, in the parish of Kitteely, county of Limerick, Ireland. He sailed from Ireland in 1846, and after a long and tedious voyage landed in New York. After a short stay there . he went to the state of Virginia where he was a contractor for the con- struction of Macadam and turnpike roads, there being at that time very few railroads. In 1851 his brother William came over from the old home and joined him, and from that time their history runs together. The brothers, when they left Virginia, came as far west as Cincinnati, where John met and married Miss Catharine Murray. The marriage ceremony was performed by Father Wood, afterwards Archbishop of Philadelphia. They then started for the far West, spending the winter of 1855 in Lyons, Iowa. In May, 1856, tney, in company with several other families, and with William Byron, then a single man, started for Minnesota with all their worldly goods in a prairie schooner drawn by oxen. There were no roads, only tracks or trails, in those days, and traveling was indeed slow and tiresome. They arrived in St. Mary about the 18th of June, 1856. Mr. Byron selected as his. home one hundred and sixty acres in section 21 of St. Mary. William Byron and Michael McGonagle, both elsewhere sketcned in this volume, settled adjoining him. From that time forward, for a number of years, his history is the same as that of the other early pioneers-one of hardship, privation, self-denial, and economy, securing after many years of industry and careful management a competency for his declining years. He was a man of excellent habits, large of lieart, and always ready to help a neighbor in distress. Of a home-loving and retiring nature, he seldom took part in politics outside of township and school district affairs. He held school-district and town offices for a num- ber of years. He was the father of nine children, five of whom are living. James A., living on a farm near the old homestead in St. Mary is a prom- inent and successful farmer. John M., well and favorably known as clerk of the district court of this county from Jan. 1, 1892, to Jan. 1, 1897, is now engaged in the clothing business at Janesville. One daughter, Mrs. John Cahill, also resides at Janesville, and two daughters are with their mother in Waseca. Mr. Byron retired from active farming some years before his death and spent his last years quietly and peacefully in his Waseca home, where, surrounded by his family, he died April 14, 1900, at the age of eighty-one years. He was buried in the St. Mary Cath- olic cemetery not far from the spot where he camped on the 18th day of June, 1856. He was an excellent, useful citizen, respected by all who knew him.

CHILD'S HISTORY OF WASECA COUNTY.
MR. STEPHEN H. PRESTON,
son of Lucius and Rebecca, was born Sept 11, 1842, in the Green Moun- tain state and reared on a farm. At the age of eighteen years, his heart swelling with pure patriotism, he enlisted in Company G, Fifth Vermont infantry and served through all the campaigns of the army of the Po- tomac. He was honorably discharged Sept. 24, 1864, and then re-enlisted in Hancock's First Veteran Reserve Corps serving until Jan. 24, 1866, when he was finally mustered out with all the honors of war. The same year he came West to Sheboygan, Wis., and entered a drug store. He remained there a year when he came to Waseca county and lived on a farm in Woodville until about 1872, when he took a soldier's homestead in Lyon county where he and his family spent the winter of 1872-3. They were literally buried by that terrible blizzard known as the "great storm of Jan. 7, 1873." The family returned to Waseca the next season, and Mr. Preston engaged in the drug business which he has ever since followed. He was with E. P. Latham for some time, then in partnership with Mr. Middaugh, then with H. H. Sudduth, since deceased, and now with Anton Stucky. He married Miss Emily Durkee, in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, Oct. 8, 1866. They have one daughter, Josie, now Mrs. Charles Leuthold, and one son, Lucius F., clerk in Leuthold Bros'. clothing store.
