ANDREW M. ANDERSON, an enterprising young farmer of Dubois County, Ind., is a
son of John and Elizabeth (Armstrong) Anderson, who were natives of Kentucky,
and was born February 26, 1852.  The father came to this State in his youth.
Here he married and afterward lived for some time, running a grist-mill, but
afterward sold out and bought a farm of 400 acres in Dubois County.  His death
occurred March 13, 1860. The mother is still living.  Our subject was raised
at home and received a fair education in the district schools in his
neighborhood.  He has always made his home with his parents, and is at present
living with his mother on the old place.  In politics he is a Republican,
casting his first vote for R.B. Hayes.  In 1881 he was nominated and elected
assessor of Madison Township for a term of four years, and has given the best
of satisfaction.  Mr. Anderson, who is a young man of energy and enterprise,
owns eighty acres of good land, and as his share of the estate has the old
homestead.
