Author: History Grundy County 1882

D. S. Small, farmer, P. O. Verona, came to Grundy County when only nine years 
old, and has remained here ever since. He was born in Somerset County, Me., in 
1846. He is the son of Harrison Small, who now lives in Verona. The first year 
after coming to the county, they lived in Vienna Township, bat have ever since 
lived in this township. The first place they settled on, an unimproved farm, 
is now owned by John Young. Mr. Small is one of a family of six children, 
three boys and three girls. One girl is dead and the other two live in 
Streator. Two of the boys are in Mazon Township, and the remaining one, our 
subject, still remains in Highland Township. His present farm consists of 
eighty acres. Mr. Small received his education in this county. In 1872, he was 
married to Miss May Hamilton; she was born in Canada. Her father, Robert 
Hamilton, died when she was small, and her mother moved to this State in 1863 
or 1864. Mr. and Mrs. Small have two children - one boy Burton, and a girl, 
Myrtle. Mr. Small's occupation has always been that of farming. He votes the 
Republican ticket.
