Warren Bond is a native of Lewis Co., New York, and came to Whiteside Co. on the 16th of April 1842, first settling in Fulton, and afterwards in Ustick, where he purchased a fine farm of two hundred and forty acres, located on the Morrison and Fulton road, which he has since continued to own and cultivate.

Of late years he has turned his attention principally in stock raising, endeavoring always to have the best. His gross receipts from farm and stock average two thousand dollars per annum. In relating his early experience he states that in his native state he threshed wheat for five cents a bushel, and helped clean the grain, working from sunrise until sunset. When he first came to Whiteside county he worked for John Hollinshead, in Ustick, for twelve dollars a month.

Mr. Bond married Miss Harriet N. Canfield, July 13, 1844. The children have been; Edna E. born November 5, 1847; Loretta born June 5 1854; Vesta M. born July 10, 1856; Olive J. born August 28 1858; Ada A and Ida A Twins born March 2 1861; Isabel born August 29 1863 and Alva W. born September 26 1865. Of these, Ada A. died September 14, 1861; Ida A. September 21, 1861; and Viola E. December 3, 1872. Edna E. married Delos P. Martin, October 18, 1865 and lives in Nebraska; Loretta H. married William J. Reed, December 31 1868 and lives in Ustick; Viola E. married Austin Goff March 18, 1872 and died as above stated - she lived in Ustick; Vesta married Wilson Springer January 1, 1874 and lives in Ustick; Olive J married Alonzo Springer, August 15, 1876 and lives in Union Grove; and George E. married Miss Sarah Bulkley, December 20, 1876 and lives in Ustick. Isabel and Alva W. reside at home.

While yet a resident of Fulton, Mr. Bond held several town offices and since his residence in Ustick he has been elected Supervisor for nine different terms, and is the present Supervisor of the township. He is a good sample of the energetic, intelligent, and successful Whiteside county farmer.
