New York, U.S.A. married Anna Tripp,daughter of Chester Tripp, was born in Barry County, Michigan, and diedin 1892. From The History of Cass County by Glover JAMES MADISON LAKE LAKE,CRANDALL,SPRAGUE,SIGERFOOS,SLIPPER,FERREL,TRIPP J. M. Lake, living on section 7, Penn township, where he owns andcontrols ninety-seven acres of good land, his home being known as 'StoneAbutment Farm,' was born in Chenango county, New York, March 23rd, 1842.His father, Richard Lake, was a native of the Empire state, as was thepaternal grandfather of our subject, Joseph Lake, who, however, spent hislast years in Michigan. He lived for some time in Cass County, where hisdeath occurred in Niles, this state. James Madison Lake was but two years old when brought by his parents toMichigan and upon the home farm in Penn Township he was reared. At theusual age he entered the public schools and when not busy with histextbooks his time was given to farm labor. After leaving schoolpermanently he gave undivided attention to farm work on the old homesteadup to the time of his marriage, which occurred in 1873, the lady of hischoice being Miss Anna Tripp, a daughter of Chester Tripp. She was bornin Barry County, Michigan, and died in 1892, leaving a little daughter,who died in 1894. Mr. Lake has a farm of ninety-seven acres, which he hasimproved with modern equipments and which he now rents. It is largelydevoted to the production of fruit and he has five hundred trees ofpeaches and apples upon the place. His trees produce quite abundantlyalmost every season and the fruit shipped from his place yields a goodfinancial income. Mr. Lake has been a resident of Cass County forsixty-four years, with the exception of one year, which he spent inPennsylvania, and is therefore well informed concerning the history ofthe county and the progress it has made from pioneer conditions to itspresent advanced state of cultivation and improvement. He has been alife-long Democrat, interested in the growth and success of his party,and has served as school director. He formerly belonged to theIndependent Order of Odd Fellows.
