NEIGHBORHOOD SKETCHES.
Further west and on the corners, southeast side, is
the home of Isaac
Cole ; but it was long the home of the Carrier family, and
the cross roads are still known as Carrier's corners. The first holder of this
farm was Robert Mason, whom we have frequently seen in these parts. A widow
Babcock, former wife of Stephen, was the party, who, fifty or more years ago,
sold to Amaziah Carrier, and went to the west. When the Babcocks took the place,
the father was living. There were five children — Betsey, Jane, Stephen, Willard
and Caleb. Mr. Carrier was born in Conquest, Cayuga county, but of Massachusetts
stock. His wife was Lois Jane Bottum, born in Conquest also. She was a sister of
the late Dr. Bottum of Lyons, but who, years ago, practiced in this and adjacent
towns. The name was originally Longbotham, and as such is still a common one on
Long Island. Mrs. Carrier's immediate family came from Schoharie county.
The
wedded life of the Carriers began in Conquest. From there they went to Huron and
thence to Rose, where we find them. No people in this town ever enjoyed more
thorough respect from their neighbors. Members of the Methodist Church, they
gave a permanent respectability to the place of their dwelling. Though only
their youngest two children were born here, yet the others were small when the
family came, so here all were reared.
Their oldest son, W . Seward, was a
young man of much promise,
who, after several years' study in Fulton, had
begun the reading of law ; but the war of the Rebellion found him ready to
sacrifice all personal ends for the good of his country. He became a member of
the 10th Veteran Cavalry, and as such died in Baltimore in 1862 — one of the
first whose body was brought back from the seat of war to his old home to sleep
its last sleep. With his kindred he rests in the Lovejoy burial ground. Mary
died in 1859, at the age of nineteen years ; Elbert E., after taking a diploma
in medicine at Ann Arbor, Mich., began the practice of his profession near
Syracuse, but died soon afterward, viz., in 1870, aged twenty- eight years ;
Ella J. married George Aldrich of North Rose, where they live, having one son,
John C; Lillie Estelle married Burton Partridge from Chautauqua county, and now
lives in Wolcott. He is a Methodist clergyman of the Genesee Conference, though
not now in the active ministry.
Amaziah Carrier himself, after a useful
life, died in 1872, at the age of sixty-two. His widow now makes her home in
Wolcott. From the
Carriers the place passed to David Waldroff of Galen, who
sold in a few years to George Fry, from whom it soon passed to its present
proprietor.
