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.
