WILLIAMS.
Charles E. Williams, secretary, treasurer and general manager of the New York Central Iron Works Company, at Geneva, Ontario county, New York, belongs to that class of citizens who, although undemonstra- tive and unassuming in their natures, nevertheless form the character and mold the society of the communities in which they live. This is the class that develops our great manufacturing interests, spreads our com- merce and replaces the rude hamlets of our forefathers with magnificent
445
ONTARIO COUNTY.
business palaces, and they, above all others, build our cities, our steam- boats and railways, and they alone deserve the credit of these enter- prises.
Mr. Williams, although well and widely known in the manufactur- ing and commercial world, is still a young man. He was born in Clinton, New York, April 28, 1869, was educated in the public and Clinton grammar schools, and then matriculated at Hamilton College, which he left in 1890. His first business employment was in the office of the New York Central Iron Works Company, where he commenced in a subordinate position. His diligence and faithful performance of even the minutest details of the duties assigned him, soon attracted the atten- tion of the officers of the corporation, and he was gradually advanced to more important positions, until he became the secretary, treasurer and manager of the entire plant, an office he is holding at the present time, as above stated. He not alone gives his personal attention to every department of this large concern, but his inventive mind has led him to introduce a number of new ideas which have greatly enhanced the value of some of the wares manufactured by them. Having, as it were, grown up with this industry, Mr. Williams has become thoroughly familiar with its every detail, and is able to judge at a glance of the practicability of any new idea which is presented to them for adoption. This company was founded in 1853 by William B. Dunning, and incorporated in 1890 with a capital stock of one hundred thousand dollars. The officers are: D. E. Dempsey, president ; O. J. C. Rose, vice-president ; and Mr. Williams as secretary, treasurer and manager. Mr. Williams also is one of the directors and a stockholder. The Dunning steam and hot water boilers are a part of their manufacture, and they ship to all parts of the United States and Alaska. Their yearly output amounts to about two hundred thousand dollars, and the sales of the concern could easily be doubled, were they not at the present time rather cramped as to space. This matter, however, will be remedied in the near future, when their work- ing capacity will be greatly increased. Mr. Williams finds but little time to devote to political matters, but he takes a lively interest in all matters which have to do with the advancement and improvement of the com- munity in which he lives or with the country at large, and gives his sup- port to the Democratic party. He and his wife are members of St. Peter's Episcopal church. He is also connected with the following or- ganizations : Ark Lodge, No. 33, Free and Accepted Masons, of Geneva ; Geneva Commandery, No. 29, Knights Templar ; Chapter No. 36, Royal
446
ONTARIO COUNTY.
Arch Masons; Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, No. 1054; and while at college was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity.
Mr. Williams married, April 25, 1895, Hattie E., born in Geneva, New York, November, 1871, daughter of Henry Glanville, who was one of the early settlers in Ontario county, and who died at the age of eighty- five years. Mrs. Williams was graduated from the Geneva high school. Children : Helen, born March 8, 1896, died January 12, 1910; Othniel G., born November 9, 1900.
LEWIS.
It is a fact, and one which cannot but be regretted by every deep- thinking man, that the majority of historiographers of the present age are in the habit of overlooking, whether by accident or design, the class of citizens who devote their lives to agricultural and commercial enter- prises, while they give prominence to lawyers, doctors, statesmen, and others whose paths in life lie in the learned professions. This is a grievous oversight, and one that should be rectified at the earliest mo- ment. There is surely no class of citizens more worthy of the respect and esteem of their fellows than those who labor so earnestly and unin- terruptedly to improve agricultural methods, commerce and manufac- tures. It is a well known fact, one which has been proven by centuries of experience, that all the prosperity of a country depends upon the good results achieved from a careful and progressive method of tilling the soil, and improving the breeds of domestic animals. One of the most successful and progressive men engaged in this indispensable and honor- able pursuit is Alfred George Lewis, president of the White Springs Farm Dairy Company, and closely identified with a number of other financial, commercial and agricultural enterprises.
George Howard Lewis, father of the above mentioned, was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1840, died October 2, 1897. He was a coal dealer in Buffalo, New York, and in Pennsylvania, and was the president of the Bell-Lewis & Yates Coal Mining Company, who were the largest shippers of coal in their time. Mr. Lewis was the leading spirit in this corporation, and a large part of the success of the firm was due to his personal efforts. He was as noted for his charities as for his unusually brilliant business qualities. In his last will and testament he devised the sum of four thousand dollars to charitable purposes, and during his life he had always been a liberal contributor to benevolent undertakings. He married Katherine, daughter of Alfred Bell, of
4-47
ONTARIO COUNTY.
Rochester, New York. In 1898 she purchased a farm of three hundred and fifty acres, which adjoins that of her son, and is living there at the present time during the summer months, spending her winters in Buffalo. She makes a specialty of importing and breeding Shropshire sheep, and has been very successful in this enterprise. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis had but one child.
Alfred George, only child of George Howard and Katherine ( Bell) Lewis, was born in Buffalo, New York, July 5, 1879. His school edu- cation was acquired in his native city, and in 1898 he and his mother removed to Geneva, New York. They purchased a farm of two hundred and sixty acres of land adjoining the city limits of Geneva, and to this Mr. Lewis has added by subsequent purchase until he had a plot of six hundred acres, all in one piece with the exception of seventy-five acres of woodland. ' This farm, known as the White Springs Farm, was formerly the property of James O. Sheldon, and the name dates back to the old Indian days. There is an Indian burying ground on the place, which is visited by many people and is a place of historic interest. When the farm came into the possession of Mr. Lewis he immediately pro- ceeded to make a number of improvements. He erected a large and commodious brick house, which is supplied with all modern improve- ments and is a model of comfort in every direction. Seven magnificent barns were also constructed, a manager's house, a boarding house, and four houses for the use of tenants. In addition to keeping his farm in a high state of cultivation, Mr. Lewis is a famous importer and breeder of Guernsey cattle. He has an average of two hundred and fifty nead of Guernsey cattle the year round, and an annual public sale of the same. At the last public sale, held in June, 1909, the amount realized was twenty-nine thousand dollars. He has beaten the world's record for auction sales by an amount of two thousand dollars. Also the world's record for a public sale, the average price realized per head for ninety- two head in 1909 being three hundred and eighty-one dollars and fifty cents. His private sales are also enormous ones, amounting to about two hundred head annually, and these go to all parts of the United States and Canada. He employs thirty-five men the year round, and the monthly farm pay roll is about one thousand and three hundred dollars. Seven pairs of horses are required for the farm work, which is carried on in an extensive manner. Mr. Lewis organized the White Springs Farm Dairy Company in 1905, and is the president of the company, as above stated. The company was incorporated for the sum of thirty-five thousand dollars, and the daily output of milk is about two thousand quarts. The
448
ONTARIO COUNTY.
milk is pasteurized, aerated and bottled, and the plant is equipped with the latest and most improved machinery, and is conducted in the most sanitary manner.
In spite of the manifold demands made upon his time by these pur- suits, Mr. Lewis manages to give considerable attention to a variety of other interests. He is a stockholder in the Geneva Automobile Com- pany, which was incorporated in 1906, with a capital stock of fifteen thousand dollars, and is at present president of the company. He is a director of the First National Bank of Geneva; trustee in the Geneva Savings Bank ; member of the board of control of the New York State Experiment Station at Geneva; trustee of the Young Men's Christian Association ; treasurer of the Public Health Association and one of the directors of the Chamber of Commerce of Geneva. He is a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Kana Club of Geneva, Geneva Country Club, Genesee Valley Club of Rochester, Saturn Club of Buffalo, and a life member of the American Guernsey Cattle Club, Hackney Society, Geneva Free Library and the Buffalo Free Library. He is independent in his political views, and is a member of Trinity Church.
Mr. Lewis married, September 29, 1903, Agnes, born in Geneva. New York, May 27, 1878, daughter of Harry Slawson, of Geneva, who died in the fall of 1903. She is a woman of fine character and great intellectual ability, and a member of a number of associations. Among these are: The Equal Suffrage Society, Ontario County Women's Suf- frage Association, and at present its vice-president, third vice-president of the Geneva Political Equality Club, and a member of the Geneva Choral Society. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis have children: Katherine Bell. born July 18, 1904. and Alfred George Jr., born January 9, 1908. Like his father, Mr. Lewis is of a very charitable disposition. He is remark- ably unselfish and helpful to all in need of assistance, and his character is a most happy combination of strength and gentleness. He has never sought for political preferment, and is modest and retiring in character, yet takes a foremost place in any plan which tends to the betterment of the community in which he dwells.
