Asahel Crowley
Randolph, Jan. 30,—(Special)— Asahel Crowley, one of the pioneers of Randolph, died at his home on Main street this morning at 6 o'clock. Mr.Crowley was born at Mount Holly, Vt., Feb. 14, 1809. He came to Randolph in 1831 and was probably the second oldest citizen in point of residence.
In 1833 he established the first mercantile business in the town. He was one of the original incorporators of the Erie & New York City railway, now the Erie, and also one of the original incorporators of the Randolph state bank. He furnished a large part of the lumber for the erection of the first Chamberlain Institute and was one of the founders of the Western New York Home for Children. He had been an invalid for a number of years and for several weeks past he has been seriously ill, so that his death was not unexpected. He is survived by five children, one son, Marvel J. Crowley, and four daughters, Mrs. Julia N.Chase, Mrs. Ellen A. Wentworth, Mrs. Mary L. Adams and Mrs. Genevieve Terhune, all of Randolph.
