Fox, Ansel T., son of Reuben and Frances Fox, was born in Trenton, New
York, January 6, 1836. His parents were natives of the same state. Being
raised on the farm, he attended the district schools. At the age of
nineteen he removed to Belvidere, Illinois. After trying it for two years
he came to this county, settling in Mazeppa township, section 10. His farm
consists of one hundred and sixty acres, a large portion being untillable.
He raises considerable stock, and carries on quite a dairying business. He
was the first town clerk and has also been chairman of the board several
times. In politics he is a stanch republican; in religion tends toward the
Universalist faith. He married Roxana, daughter of Eben Boughton, who was
a native of New York State. They have three children, as follows: Sarah
F., Alfred R. and Charlotte A., all at home.
