Isaac Troth Anthony was born Aug. 22, 1852 at Glenwood, Mills county, Iowa, the eldest son of Dr. Levi Anthony and Mariba Troth. He came with his father to Peru, Nebraska in 1860 and from there went to Gage county until he was married to Miss Mary Pethoud, at Beatrice, Dec. 24, 1877. They lived near Wilbur in Saline county until 1914 when they moved to a farm near Brownville. In 1920 they came to Auburn and Mr. Anthony took the position of janitor of Athens school, which he held for thirteen years, retiring only because of failing health. At that time he was presented with a letter of appreciation, signed by the members of the board of education. It was testimonial to long and faithful service. The manner in which children came to love him was a tribute to his charter. As a citizen, he always gave his influences and support to those things most worthwhile. In childhood, Mr. Anthony united with the Methodist church but afterward transferred his membership to the Latter Day Saints. He was a Christian man, true to the faith he professed.

Father of Luella Maud, Emma Alice, Thomas Levi, Clara Mae, Clarence Mann, Winona Marie, Beatrice Idell, Raymond Franklin, and Opal Bernice.
