A. H. BOOTH, with J. E. Borden, Colby, was born in Wayne Co., NY, Nov. 3, 1840. His parents lived on a farm, and there he passed his early years, until 1853, when they moved to Fond du Lac County, where they again located on a farm. At the age of twenty, he learned the mason's trade, and with that and by work on the farm, maintained his parents for seven years. He lost his mother in 1880, but his father, a man eighty-seven years of age, is now one of his family. In 1869, he opened a store in Loyal, Clark Co., under the name of Graves Booth, Gwin Co. In 1872, he came to Colby. In 1865, he married Miss L. R. Graves, of Clark County. They have had five children Andrew Duane, deceased Francis Ray, deceased: Lulu R., Claudia C. and Deete. Mr. Booth belongs to the I. O. O. F.
