BIOGRAPHY from "History of Old Tryon and Rutherford Counties, North Carolina 1730 - 1936" by Clarence W. Griffin, County Historian Rutherford County, Forest City, N.C.
"Foot note 4....
Alphonso DeKalb Wallace, a member of the editorial staff of The Rutherford Star, was born September 14, 1848 on his father's farm on Holland's Creek, two miles north of Rutherfordton, and spent nearly all of his eighty years within a short distance of where he was born. He attended school at the Golden Grove Seminary with Prof. W. D. Logan in 1866 and 1867. At the same time he read medicine with Dr. John M. Craton, then associated with Dr. Birch Twitty. He, however, did not complete the medical course and after two years at Golden Grove Seminary he became an assistant in the office of the Clerk of Superior Court of Rutherford County.
In 1869 he was appointed postmaster at Rutherfordton, and the same year joined the Western Star Lodge, A.F. & A. M. of which he held a number of official positions. He next entered the country newspaper field and was for sometime connected with The Rutherford Star. In 1874 he made a bold experiment in the merchandising field at Chimney Rock which netted him a nice sum. A year later he assumed new duties as a civil engineer for the New York Speculation Company, which owned land in a number of counties. This took him into the mountains of Rutherford, Polk, Burke, Henderson and Cleveland Counties, laying off small farms and looking after the interests of the company. On February 19, 1879, he was married to Miss Margaret Matilda, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. John E. Padgett, of Edgefield S.C. to whom seven children were born. Two years after his marriage he was deputy clerk of the superioir court, and an assistant in the offices of the register of deeds and county treasurer. It was seven years later Mr. Wallace exchanged his residence in Rutherfordton for 110 acres of land in what is now the heart of Spindale. Here he became a successful farmer and joining the Farmers Alliance soon became a magistrate and then secertary of the County Alliance. It was at this period of life that Mr. Wallace was more active in in politics. Resigning in 1892 from membership in the Democratic Executive Committee, he helped to form the Populist party and it was at a midnight session, with Hon. Richmond Pearson, that they arranged for a fusion with the Republican party. The following year he was the engrossing clerk of the State Senate. The next year he was the teller at the State Treasury. In 1897 he was chief clerk of the State Department of North Carolina. About two years later, realizing that he had made a grave mistake in joining with the Populists, he resigned his position and returned to his farm in Rutherford County. Mrs. Wallace died January 31, 1899, and three years later his son Wirtz, was accidentally killed by his younger brother. He then left the farm and removed to Ruth and entered the merchandizing business, which he carried on until a short time before his death, which occurred April 13, 1928."
