MYRON ALEXANDER WOOD, successful farmer, well known among agriculturists throughout the county. has lived on the farm he now occupies for sixty-three years and throughout his years of manhood he has held manfully to the task of farming it, and of bringing it under complete cultivation. When his father first took the farm, in 1856, it was not very far advanced beyond the wild state: it is now a rich, well improved agricultural property of 190 acres, upon which are many substantial improvements-commodious barns, cow barns. milk houses, a fine residence, and a good tenant house. Upon the property is an extensive vineyard, and its arable land and pasturage are in excellent condition. Such a result was possible only by hard work, and in that work Myron Alexander Wood had good part.
He was born in Ripley, Chautauqua county, N. Y., April 21, 1850, son of Hiram and Almeda (Winter) Wood. His father, Hiram Wood, first came into the county from Herkimer county, N. Y., in 1844, then lo- cating in Ripley township. In 1856, he moved to the farm now occupied by the son, and by dint of hard work, in which he was helped by his son, developed it into a good property. His son, Myron A., attended the district school until he had passed through its grades, and then devoted his entire time to tasks upon his father's farm. His father died in 1890, so that for the last twenty-nine years Myron A. Wood has been wholly responsible for the upkeep of the property. He has not only maintained it in good condition, but has im- proved it very considerably, and most of the modern improvements upon the property were undertaken by him.
Mr. Wood has always been interested in local affairs, and might have had many offices, had he been minded to stand for election, but apart from the responsibilities of school trustee and collector of taxes, he has not taken official part in the local administration, and he has held no office in national polities, neither has he sought office, although he has been a loyal Republican for the greater part of his life. Fraternally, he belongs to the Masonic body, being identified with a Westfield lodge. His life, lived wholly within the county, and for the greater part of the time connected with responsihle affairs, has been commendable; from his early man- hood he has shown a steadiness and stability of purpose that has marked him as a worthy Chautauqua county sericulturist. He has endeavored to be fair and hon- orable in all his dealings, and he has a good name in the district.
Myron A. Wood is unmarried, but his sister, Cath- crine kreps hon e for him. His other relatives of same venera' en are his sisters: Mrs. John R. Rogers, Mrs. Abbie Henderson, and Mrs. Rose Herron, and his hali brother, Hiram D. Wood.
FRANK MARVIN CLARK-Prominent in the 'and mercantile life of Jamestown for thirty- ١ ٠:٣ ٠٠ ٢٠ 1.rail: Marvin Clark, the well known phar-
maceutical chemist and merchant. He is a member of a very old and distinguished English family, and traces his ancestry to John Clark, of Westhorpe, England, of whom further.
The name Clark is derived from the Latin clericus. This word at first meant a person in Orders (whether holy orders or minor orders) ; later anyone who had been edneated by the clergy ; and finally anyone who could read and write, As a surname Clark or Clarke is prob- ably as old as the eleventh century. Instances are re- eorded where other surnames were changed to Clark, probably as being more honorable. Not less than thirty Clark (e) families settled in New England colonies be- fore 1700; there were, in fact, twelve Thomas Clarkes in New England between 1623 and 1680, and the Clark of Mayflower fame, who came with the Pilgrim Fathers to Plymouth in 1620. The ancestry is traced to the par- ish of Westhorpe, Suffolk county, England. In the earlier generations, as by many of the present day de- scendants, the name is spelled with the final "e."
The coat-of-arms of the Clark family is as follows :
