Joliet Township is the home of the above-named gentleman who lives on section 25, his farm including one hundred and sixty acres in this Township and twenty acres adjoining. Since settling here he has given his attention entirely to agriculture, in which he is winning the success which ever waits upon industrious efforts. He was born in County Cayan, Ireland, in 1822, and grew to manhood in his native country. Upon coming to America he made his home in New York for several years, becoming a resident of this county in the fall of 1856. He was a contractor and builder and followed his trade in Joliet some twelve or thirteen years. He then married and settled upon the farm which has since been his home.

C., Samuel E., Hattie J., Mary E. and Annie M. J. Mr. Love has been Highway Commissioner and School Director. In politics he is a Republican.
