AARON RUMSEY was born in Hubbardton, Vt., May 16, 1797. At the age of twenty years, without capital other than a knowledge of his trade, he came to Warsaw, having performed a journey of four hundred miles on foot, with a bundle in his hand, comprising his whole property. He joined his brother Calvin, who had a few years previously established himself in the Shoe and Leather business. Arter a partner- ship of ten years, in 1827, he sold his interest in the concern to his brother, and removed to Westfield, Chantanqua Co., where he engaged in the mercantile business. In 1834, he removed to Buffalo, and again commenced the Leather busi- ness, which, however, was soon arrested by the general and severe commercial convulsion of 1837, which operated so dis- astrously in that city. A few years after, having made the necessary arrangements, he started anew in his former busi- ness; and by his energy and business talent, he succeeded in gaining, in a comparatively short period, a trade of vast mag- nitude, in which two of his sons, Bronson and Dexter became partners. But the large gains of his extensive business were not his most valuable acquisitions. He had previously found the "pearl of great price," which he prized above all the treasure of the world. To promote the interests of religion was to him a favorite object. He several times transferred his church relations from the stronger to the more feeble churches of his denomination, which were in greater need of his assistance. And the institutions of religion and benevo- lence in general, found in him a liberal patron. Both himself and wife were members of the Presbyterian church. He married in Warsaw, in 1819, Sophia Phelps, who was born Sept. 11, 1796. They had six children : Rollin, Bronson C., Eleanor, Dexter P., Earl D. and Rollin D., of whom three died young.
