PERSONAL SKETCH.


E. H. GIFFORD.


Mr. Gifford located upon the farm where he now resides in the year 1850. It was a poor tract, and in a dilapidated condition. He immediately began a series of improvements which ultimately placed this farm in the front rank. Mr. G. is a skillful agriculturist, and has succeeded, after long years of patient labor, in transforming it to one of the finest farms for which "Old Ontario" is so justly celebrated. A principal feature of the improvements was the planting of a line of maple-trees on either side of the highway, which have flourished finely, and that portion of the highway now is a delightfully-shaded avenue.


In 1860, Mr. Gifford erected the fine dwelling beautifully represented on another page of this work. This model residence was built after plans and specifica- tions submitted by the celebrated architect, A. J. Warner, of Rochester, assisted by Ruel Taylor, of Newark, Wayne county. A view and plan of this dwelling was twice published in Moore's Rural New- Yorker, and many homes throughout various parts of the country were erected from the plans of this complete and handsome rural residence. Mr. Gifford is the possessor of about two hundred acres of land, and is surrounded by all the attributes of a happy home.

TOWN OF MANCHESTER.


Oft did the harvest to the sickle yield ; Their furrows oft the stubborn glebe had broke; How jocund did they drive their team afield 1 How bowed the woods beneath their sturdy strokel-GRAY.


IN the fall of 1788 a road was constructed to Canandaigua from a landing- place in what is the town of Manchester, on the outlet, near where Dr. Stafford's mill now stands. It was the second road underbrushed upon the purchase, and the highway of emigration. Party after party debarked at the landing and moved on to other points, and it was not until 1793 that the first settlers made their entry upon this field. The tract was known as town 12, range 2, and was part of the original Farmington. It contains twenty-three thousand and forty acres of well-timbered land, whose price in real value was but $460.80. The present aggregate valuation is $1,121,825, and it has a population of 4187 souls. Seventeen school-houses and nine churches give indication of educational and religious development. One now looks upon a town wherein are seven villages, railway facilities, manufactures, and a famed sanitarium, where, eighty-three years ago, Joel Gillet, Stephen Phelps, and Joel Jared made the first settlement in the midst of a wild land, forest-hidden, and tenanted by beast and savage. Of these three men, Joel Jared made but brief sojourn. Stephen Phelps took up a tract, of which a portion constitutes the farm now owned by Ezra Pierce, Esq. He, too, remained not long, but, selling to Nathan Pierce, went to Palmyra and opened the second tavern there, and, finally, in 1820, removed to Illinois; and Joel Gillet came to stay. He is recognized as the first resident pioneer of Manchester. He contracted for the north half of lot 19, and received his deed June 23, 1796. This pioneer farm is thus located : commencing in the village of Manchester, at the corner store occupied at this date by Wilson and Allen, it extended west to the Farmington line, and south to the south line of the cemetery. On this land, in the summer of 1793, Gillet built the first dwelling erected in the town; it stood near the cemetery, and gave shelter to father, mother, and eight children,. three sons, John, Asa, and Asel; five daughters, Sarah, Ziba, Lydia, Ruth, and Anna. True to the principles of industrious self-reliance, but a year or so went by ere Mr. Gillet had erected a loom to weave the cloth they needed to wear.
