THE BAPTIST CHURCH OF SOUTH RICHLAND.


This church was organized on the 7th day of October, 1817, by a council convened at the house of Colonel Robert Gillespie. Elder Enos Ferris became the first pastor of the church October 11, 1817, and officiated in that capacity during a number of years.


The services of this early organization were held at various private houses until 1839; a church edifice was commeneed and completed in the following year. The first service was held in the church April 11, 1840. There are no records of the church from which can be obtained the names of the different pastors who have been stationed here. We are only able to give the names of Elders Evering, M. V. Will- son, E. Crove, and Rev. T. G. Jones, the present pastor. The roll of membership numbers sixty-one.


THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF SOUTHI RICH-

This church was organized in June, 1840, by Rev. G. C. Woodruff and Rev. Gardner Baker, with the following members : Solomon and Betsey Erskine, Phoebe Erskine, Betsey Dickinson, Rhoda Stewart, Sebern Dickinson and wife, George H. English and wife, Timothy Steel and wife, Levi Cary and wife, and Jonathan Sherwood and wife.


Services were held in the school-house until 1858, when the present church edifice was dedicated by Rev. George Sawyer, presiding elder, and the pastor, Rev. J. H. Burnett. The building was erected at a cost of eight hundred dollars.


At the organization of this church it was a part of the Pulaski circuit, and served by Rev. G. C. Woodruff in 1842, and Rev. B. Holmes in 1843-44. In the latter year it was made a part of the Mexico circuit, and in 1845 Rev. O. Lathrop officiated as pastor. Rev. O. Squires was pastor in 1846-47, David B. Smith in 1848, Allen C. Castle in 1849-50, and J. C. Smedley and D. Barnard in 1851.


In 1851 it was made an independent charge.


The following-named persons have served this church as pastors from its organization as an independent charge to the present time, embracing a period of twenty-six years, --


Revs. William Peck, 1852; J. M. Hudson, 1853-54; David P. Knapp, 1855-56; J. Il. Burnett, 1857-58; J. H. Buck, 1859-60; Allen C. Castle, 1861 ; A. Blackman, 1862-63; M. T. Smedley, 1864-65; Zardis Kenyon, 1866; J. W. McDonald, 1867 ; J. W. Simpson, 1868-70; L. R. Grant, 1871-72; S. Boyd, 1873-75.


The church is at present in a prosperous condition, and is under the efficient management of Rev. George H. Van Vliet, who began his pastoral labors in 1876.


The present officers are as follows : Class-leaders, Charles Erskine, John Tyler, Lyman Leonard, A. Brainard, Charles Hicks, and Robert Aird ; Stewards, O. White, Robert Aird, Lyman Leonard, Frank Willis, and Henry Tyler ; Trustees, Robert Gates, Thomas Perry, and Martin Hess.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.


ROBERT LEROY INGERSOLL.


Robert L. Ingersoll is a native of New Berlin, Chenango county, where he was born June 5, 1819. Hle came into the town of Albion with his father, Ebenezer Ingersoll, in 1830. Like many of the prominent and successful business men of to-day, Mr. Ingersoll received the rudiments of his education at the district school, and although the educational advantages of those early days were meagre, still he suc- ceeded well in his studies and subsequently entered the Mexico academy, where he pursued his studies with diligence and attention, and succeeded in acquiring an education that well fitted him for his subsequent successful business career. At the close of his school days he purchased " his time" of his father,-seven months for the sum of fifty dollars,-and commenced business for himself. He formed a copartner- ship with Elijah Shumway in the manufacture of carriages at Sandy Creek, and subsequently purchased his partner's interest, and continued the business about five years, and then removed to the village of Pulaski and established a carriage-manufactory. He conducted this business until 1872, when he disposed of it to Ingersoll & Suydam.


.


In 1854 he established the Pulaski bank and assumed its presidency, in which capacity he officiated until 1862, when the institution was discontinued. He then organized the R. L. Ingersoll & Co.'s bank, and has since been actively engaged in the banking business.


In 1842 he united in marriage with Caroline E. Clark, a native of Jefferson county. Their family consists of six children, viz., Leroy, George D., Anna A., Frank D., Fred B., and Maud. George D. resides in this town ; Anna A., wife of Frank Dimock, resides in Quincy, Illinois; Frank D. in Michigan ; Fred B. in St. Catharines, Canada ; Maud is unmarried.


Mr. Ingersoll is a positive character. While he is kind and considerate to those with whom he has business relations, still, when once determined upon a course, he never casts a back ward glance, but pursues it to a successful termination. Though differing with many in various matters, they give him credit for honesty of purpose. The element of invin- cible determination is prominent in the character of Mr. Ingersoll. Though he has no petty controversies, still in


his long business career he has become involved in heavy litigations, but never had a judgment entered against him. Ilis line of conduct has been, --


" Beware of entrance to a quarrel ; but, being in, bear't that th' opposed may beware of thee."


His friends fiod in him a warm associate, and those with whom he may chance to be opposed a " foeman worthy of their steel." Politically he is a Democrat, and a vigorous and uncompromising exponent of the principles of that party. Mr. Ingersoll is essentially a self-made man, and has through his own individual efforts become one of the substantial men of the county.


CAPTAIN IRA DOANE


was born June 10, 1807, in Litchfield, Herkimer county, New York. His father, John Doane, was a soldier in the Revolutionary war ; enlisted immediately after the battle of Bunker Hill, and served during the war. He was a pris- oner eighteen months in a prison-ship in New York harbor. The parents moved from Connecticut about 1798, and eventually settled in Litchfield, Herkimer county, New York.


Their children were six sons and two daughters, four of whom are surviving, viz. : Mrs. Olivia Mason, residing in Pulaski; Isaac, in Port Ontario; Harvey, in Michigan, and the subject of our sketch.


The family moved to Orwell in May, 1821. The father died January 9, 1831, the mother in 1845; both in Pulaski.


Captain Doane was married October 24, 1830, to Audria Vorce. Seven children were born to them, only two of whom are living : a son, Helon F., and daughter, Martha A., wife of L. D. Potter, son of John E. Potter. A son, Henry G. Doane, was a member of the Thirty-fifth Regi- ment New York Volunteers, and died at Elmira, New York. His wife died June, 1853, and he was married to Julia Vorce January 22, 1854, cousin of his first wife, and daughter of Colonel William Vorce.


The early years of Captain Doane's life were spent as a farmer, about twelve years as a carpenter and joiner, the latter years as a merchant in Pulaski, and later still operating in timber lands. He has been called to fill various offices of public trust : president of the village, collector, jailor, and under-sheriff, and inspector of customs in New York city, may be mentioned among them.


A life-long Democrat, Captain Doane voted for General Jackson and for the Democratic candidate at every presi- dential election since. He built the house he occupies in 1865, and at the present time has retired from all active business, in the enjoyment of a competency, the result of years of hard labor, and the friendship and esteem of the entire community.


JAMES N. BETTS, M.D.


Oswego County is noted for the proficiency and high standard of its medical men, and none occupy a more de-

servedly popular position in the profession than Dr. James N. Betts, of Pulaski. A residence of nearly a quarter of a century there, during which time he has been in the active practice of his profession, has fully demonstrated his general worth, and assigned him a conspicuous place on the pages of history.


James N., son of Silas and Janette (Wheeler) Betts, was born in the town of Oxford, Chenango county, New York, April 2, 1822. He was the second of a family of four children, and remained a member of it until he completed his fourteenth year, when he left the paternal roof, and went out in " the wide, wide world" to do for himself, and since that time has relied entirely upon his own resources. He received an academic education, and before graduating had chosen his profession,-namely, that of a doctor. In order to meet the necessary expenses for the prosecution of his medical studies he was compelled to teach school for several years. He then entered the Worcester medical college, at Worcester, Massachusetts, and from there went to the Syra- cuse medical college, from which latter he graduated with honors. After graduating he was engaged in the manufac- ture of medicine, and at the same time published the Syr- acuse Medical Journal.


In December, 1843, Dr. Betts was married to Miss Sarah M., daughter of Jesse Burrows, Esq., of Coventry, Che- mango county, New York. In 1855 he disposed of his property and business in Syracuse and removed to Pulaski, where he established himself in the practice of his profession, and has since devoted his entire attention to it. He has been eminently successful. He holds diplomas from the Medical University of Philadelphia, from the Syracuse med- ical college, and from the Eclectic medical college of Cin- cinnati, Ohio. In 1875 he was strongly urged to accept the enviable position of the chair of surgery in the American medical college of St. Louis, Missouri, but his extensive practice, home standing, and business interests debarred him from accepting the honor, much to the disappointment of the faculty.


The doctor has taken a deep interest in the educational affairs of Pulaski. He has been a member of the board of education since 1855, with the exception of one year, in which he was supervisor. In politics he is a Democrat of the good old Jeffersonian school. He is an earnest and con- sistent member of the political party whose principles he has espoused.


The doctor has three boys: the elder, Albert F., is a well- known merchant, at Pulaski; the second son, James H., is traveling ; whilst the younger, George W., has adopted the profession of his worthy father, and is now completing his medical education at the University of Michigan, at Ann Arbor, connected with which is one of the best medical colleges in the country.


Dr. Betts is a gentleman well and favorably known, and one who is very highly respected and esteemed. He pos- sesses the necessary qualifications of the physician other than knowledge,-geniality of disposition, and firmness blended with kindness and compassion. In his domestic relations he is kind and affectionate, a good husband, father, and friend, and in every sense a worthy citizen. (See illus- tration and porirait on another page.)


DON A. KING.


The subject of this sketch traces his lineage back to the reign of Queen Elizabeth, when John King, father of the original settler in this country, of the same family, was secretary to that distinguished sovereign. A son, named Ed- ward, was a classmate of John Milton, and was a successful competitor with the illustrious poet for a class prize. Ile was subsequently drowned in the Irish sea, and commem- orated by Milton in the poem of " Lycidas." John King, the ancestor of the family in this country, settled in North- ampton, Massachusetts, in 1654. He was from Northamp- tonshire, England.


Don A. King, son of Henry King and Betsey Allen, was born in Ellisburg, Jefferson county, March 27, 1820. His mother was a daughter of Joseph Allen, Esq., the first set- tler on " Pierrepont Manor." Ilis father, Henry King, emi- grated from Southampton, Massachusetts, in the year 1806. The subject of this sketch early manifested a desire for a thorough education, and after pursuing a preparatory course of instruction entered Union college, and graduated with honor in 1844, in the class with Prof. Joy, of Columbia college, Governor Alex. H. Rice, William HI. H. Moore, James C. Duane, U.S.A., also Generals Frederick and How- ard Townsend, of Albany.


His affable manner and studious habits rendered him es- teemed among his associates, and he was elected a member of the " Phi Beta Kappa" society.


At the close of his collegiate course lic chose the profession of the law, and commenced his studies with a Mr. Blake, at Cold Spring, opposite West Point, and completed them with Hon. A. Z. McCarty, in 1847, and on the 22d day of September in that year was admitted to the bar in the city of Poughkeepsie. In 1848 he united in marriage with Mary Baker, daughter of Thomas C. Baker, of Pulaski. Their family consists of four children, viz., Ella M., wife of the Rev. J. H. Wright, of Davenport, Delaware county, New York; Katharine D .; Charles B .; and Sarah Frances. Charles B. is a graduate of Union college, and is practicing law with his father in Pulaski.


In 1848 he formed a copartnership in the practice of law with Mr. McCarty, which existed until 1855. In 1855 he was appointed a director of the Pulaski bank, and officiated in that capacity until its dissolution. Upon the organization of R. L. Ingersoll & Co.'s bank he became a partner, and was attorney for the bank until 1876.


While he has been actively engaged in the arduous duties of his profession, he has bestowed much time and attention upon educational matters, and was one of the incorporators of the Pulaski academy, and has done much towards con- tributing to its present prosperity.


Mr. King has never sought for political distinction, and although a life-long Democrat, one of the leading members of his party in the county, and a vigorous exponent of its principles, he has labored rather for that distinction at the bar which comes from years of earnest application, and justly merits the reputation of ranking among the best lawyers in this portion of the State. Ilis affable and cour- teous manner, sound learning, good judgment, and candor have won for him in a remarkable degree the esteem and confidence of his fellow-citizens.

WILLIAM STRONG.


Among the prominent pioneers of Redfield township were Eli and Charlotte (West) Strong, parents of the subject of this sketch, who came from Connecticut about the year 1790. After remaining nearly a quarter of a century in Redfield they removed to the town of Orwell, and it was here that William was born, on the 12th of February, 1814. There were five children in the family, of which he was the fourth. He resided with his father until he was twenty-one years old, when he purchased his father's farnı, upon which he remained for thirty years.


In 1844 he married Miss Chloe West, from Lee, Oneida county, New York, daughter of Ira and Lucy West, by whom he had one child, Sarah, the wife of Orla Allen, Esq., of Pulaski.


His father was postmaster of Orwell for twenty-four


years, and was a prominent man in his township gener- ally. In 1867 father and son removed to Pulaski, where his father died at the good old age of eighty-six years. He was an influential member of the Methodist Episcopal church at Orwell, which he assisted to erect. William Strong re- ceived a good common-school education ; and has since devoted his time to farming and the dairy business, and has been quite successful in both branches. Politically, he is a Democrat, and has held various township offices, among others that of supervisor. Socially, he is a quiet, unassuming man, respected by the people of the community in which he resides. In character he is honest and upright, faithful in the discharge of every duty, and happy in his domestic relations. In fine, he is a good neighbor, a firm friend, and a worthy citizen.
