of five children:  William C., Florence B., Milton O., John C. and Amanda
E., born to David and E. (Ramsey) Todd, who were natives respectively of
Monroe and Lawrence Counties, this State.  Our subject was reared by his
parent until the age of twenty-one years, since when he has been doing
business for himself.  Miss Julia C. Buechler, daughter of Lawrence and Mary
(Blong) Buechler, became his wife September 10, 1874, and two children,
named Minnie Pearl and David Leslie have blessed them.  During the greater
part of the winter seasons of the past eight or ten years, Mr. Todd has
taught district school, but during the summer months has turned his
attention to agricultural pursuits, owning a nicely improved farm of
sixty-five acres.  He is a Democrat, an Odd Fellow and he and wife are
