General Notes: Husband - R. P. Root

---

He was educated in the schools of the neighborhood, and in summer months aided in the work of the farm. When twenty-three years of age he wedded and they began their domestic life on a farm at Hegarty's Cross Roads, which he rented of Frederick Shoff, and a year later he removed his family to Utahville, where he followed rail­roading and also worked in the lumber woods for a year. Removing then to the old homestead, he operated his father's land until 1893, after which time he was engaged in the butcher­ing business.
