THE CENTENNIAL HISTORY OF OREGON 1811-1912
G.M. PATTY. General farming engages the attention of G.M. Patty, who owns and operates a hundred acre tract of Yamhill county's fertile land, located in the vicinity of Amity. His birth occurred in this county on October 3, 1872, his parents being G.M. and Lucy (Ruble) Patty, the former a native of Arkansas and the latter of Missouri, their marriage taking place after they had come to Oregon. In 1852 the father left his native state and crossed the plains to Oregon, first locating on the Willamette. He subsequently removed to Salem, whence he later came to Yamhill county, settling on a farm three miles south of Amity. The improvement and operation of this place engaged his undivided attention until his death in 1907. He was laid to rest in the cemetery at Amity. Of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Patty there were born five sons and two daughters: Henry, who lives in the vicinity of Amity; William, who is deceased; G.M., our subject; Winfield, who is deceased; Ray, who is living with his mother; Lucy, who is also at home; and June, the wife of Roy Shields, of Salem, Oregon.
The boyhood and youth of G.M. Patty did not differ in any marked degree from those of other lads of the period and like circumstances. He attended the common schools in the acquirement of his education, devoting such time as he was not engaged with his studies in assisting his father with the work of the farm. He remained at home with his parents until he was twenty-two years of age, when he decided that he was fully qualified to begin his independent agricultural career, so he located on the place where he now resides. His energies have been intelligently applied to the operation of this land for about seventeen years, and as a result he has a finely improved and valuable piece of property. Diversified farming under the capable supervision and intelligent direction of Mr. Patty has proven to be very lucrative, as is manifested by his fine barns, attractive residence, and well stocked pastures. A capable business man as well as agriculturist he has applied as rigid methods and adhered to as carefully outlined a system in the conduct of his affairs as he would have followed in a commercial pursuit. A man of progressive and practical ideas he has met with a gratifying degree of success, always having operated his fields under his personal supervision, and given every detail of his business the most careful attention.
About sixteen years ago Mr. Patty completed his arrangements for a home of his own by his marriage to Miss Anna Middleton and unto them have been born one daughter and two sons, Florence, Glen and Robert, all of whom are still at home.
The family attends the Methodist Episcopal church, in which Mrs. Patty holds membership. Fraternally Mr. Patty is connected with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.
His political support he has always accorded to the republican party considering that their policy is best adapted to sub-serve the highest interests of the majority. Governmental affairs, however, have never engaged his attention to any marked degree as he has always preferred to devote his energies rather to the development of his personal interests. He is widely known in this vicinity and is held in the highest esteem by all who have had transactions with him, as he is a man of high standards and incorruptible integrity.
