1. A biographical sketch from the "History of Saint Croix Valley", by Augustus B. Easton, pub. 1909 courtesy Joe Chase August, 2000:
"James S. CHESEBRO, who comes of a long-lived family, was born at Maxon Hill, Wis., February 10, 1850,
son of Samuel F. and Delia (IVES) CHESEBRO, the former of who was born near Albany, NY, in 1825, and the
latter in the western part of New York in 1823. Samuel F. was the next to the youngest of twelve children, nine
of who lived to be over seventy-five years of age. He was killed in a runaway, March 4, 1876, and his widow
survived him several years, passing to her eternal reward May 7, 1885. James S. moved to Clifton Hollow
with his parents at the age of four years, and later came to his parents place on section 6, Clifton township,
where he owns 190 acres of good land, 130 being in a high stage of cultivation. His early education was
received in the public schools of this county, and his experience as a farmer was gained with his father on
the old homestead, where James S. now makes his home. Mr. Chesebro was married December 29, 1874,
to Emma LEWIS, born in 1855, daughter of Calvin and Ann (VINCENT) LEWIS, the former of whom was born in
1823 and the latter of whom was born in 1825 and died in 1857. Mrs. Chesebro came to this section of the
state in 1864. Mr. Chesebro is a republican in politics, but has never sought puble office.
