Bolton, Miller T. (page 257), of the Bolton Drug Store Company, Plainview,
is one of the active men in the affairs of the village, and is doing his
share toward the general prosperity of the country. He was born in Eyota,
Olmstead County, this state, October 27, 1871, son of Thomas G. and Ella
(Foster) Bolton. He was brought to Plainview by his parents as an infant,
and here passed through the public schools, graduating from the Plainview
High School in 1888. In the meanwhile he had spent much of his spare time
in his father's drug store, and early became imbued with the idea of
following his father's profession. Accordingly in 1892 he entered the
University of Minnesota and pursued the regular course in pharmacy, being
graduated from that course in 1894. Then returning to Plainview, he
associated himself with his father in the drug business. In 1907 the firm
of the Bolton Drug Store was formed with Miller T. and John F. as
partners, and this firm has since continued to do a prosperous business.
The brothers have a neat store, well equipped, and carry a good line of
drugs, stationery and novelties. Fraternally Mr. Bolton is a member of
Illustrious Lodge No. 63, and of the Odd Fellows. He was married August
28, 1901, to Myrtle L. Mallory, of Plainview, who was born November 10,
1877, the daughter of J. W. Mallory, who died in 1902. Mr. and Mrs. Bolton
have four children: Ella M., born October 17, 1902; Ruth E., born January
1, 1907; Mary E., born May 17, 1911, and Mallory T., born March 30, 1915.
