Lounsbury, and was engaged in the lumbering business until he was twenty-one years of age. Sept. 9, 1836, he was united in marriage with Louisa Olmsted, daughter of Joshua Olmsted, of Nichols, and commenced keeping house on a farm in the town of Nichols, two miles south of Tioga Centre, owned by his father, where he stayed about three years. He then bought the Ezra Canfield farm, now owned by Samuel Smith, lived thereon thirteen years, and then sold it. He removed on the farm now occupied by Wm. Lounsbury, Jr., which he had leased, and he stayed there one year. In 1846, he bought and moved upon the farm now owned by James Lounsbury's heirs. He erected buildings and improved his farm, residing thereon several years. He was a well-to-do farmer with ample means, and ranked with the leading citizens of the town.
