Carlisle Vose was born in the village of Manville, and was educated in the local schools, completing the high school course. He then went into his father's store and engaged in that business until the end of his active business life. When his father retired he took charge of the store and built up a large trade, which brought in every-increasing returns. He first enlarged the original store, then built a still larger one. The business assumed such proportions that they built the largest block in Manville. Carlisle Vose was at the head of this establishment for forty-two years, eventually bringing his sons into the business before retiring.
Under President Pierce he was appointed postmaster at Manville, and continued to serve for seventeen years. In the old town of Smithfield and later in that of Lincoln he was in the town council, acting one term as president. He has also represented both towns in the State Legislature, serving twelve years in all, while he was likewise been on the Lincoln board of assessors. For several years he was a trustee of the public schools.
