David Gander was born Aug. 10, 1825, in Muskingum Co., Ohio, where he grew to manhood, and received a common school education. In 1860, he removed to Crawford Co., Wis., settling in the town of Clayton, where he purchased 160 acres of land on section 33, town 11. He now owns forty acres of the original land, and forty acres on section 32. He sold his son George, a farm of fifty acres, his son John forty acres; his son Nathan forty acres, and his son Frank, forty acres, of the old farm, and three "forties" of land purchased about the year 1874, known as the "Sprague land." He was married, in 1849, to Mary P. Ward, who was born in Muskingum Co., Ohio, July 19, 1830. They are the parents of seven children, six sons and one daughter. One son died in infancy, and the daughter in her sixteenth year. George J. married Martha Kissack; John L. married Lucretia Grandstaff; Nathan H., married Eva Parmer; Milton F. married Ida Bailey; David E. is yet single, and is living at home with his parents. Mr. Gander has been a member of the town board for one year. He has never been an office-seeker in any direction desiring rather to live a quiet life on the farm.
