source: 1883 History of Henry Missouri , National Historical Co. - page: 522
residence: Clinton Twp

Albert Judge, grocer, was born in Baltimore, Maryland, November 30, 1836, while 
the family were in that city as refugees from Charleston, South Carolina, which 
at that time was stricken with yellow fever. They returned, however, to 
Charleston shortly after the birth of Albert. His father, James Judge, a native of 
England, was there raised, and in 1830 he emigrated to America. After a limited 
residence in New York City he went to Florida, resided there one year, and thence 
to Charleston, South Carolina, where he was engaged in merchandising till 1844. 
Then, with his family, he removed to St. Charles County, Missouri, of which 
county he was a prominent farmer. During the late war he was much abused by 
the Federals for being a Southern sympathizer, and was held a prisoner from the 
spring of 1864 till December, 1865, at different times in the prisons of St. 
Louis, Missouri, Alton, Illinois, and Jefferson City, Missouri, besides being fined 
$10,000 and having his property confiscated. He is now deceased. Albert's 
mother, formerly Mary A. French, was also born in England and there married Mr. 
Judge. Her death occurred while on a visit to Cincinnati, Ohio, in November, 1864. 
Young Judge grew up on a farm in St. Charles County, Missouri, and attended 
during 1855-6-7 the Urbana University. After returning home he continued 
farming and also merchandising to some extent till 1866, at that time coming to 
Henry County. Here he still resumed farming till August, 1880, when he engaged 
in his present business, the firm being Vandiver & Judge. They were associated 
together till April, 1881, when the name became Judge & Comer, so remaining for 
eight months. Since that time Mr. Judge has been alone in the business. His stock 
of goods is very complete, and the large patronage he is receiving is a sufficient 
guarantee of the success of his business. He was united in marriage April 22, 
1862, to Miss Kate Gaiter, of St. Charles County, Missouri. They have three 
children: William A., Carrie B. and Charles E. Mr. J. is a member of the Masonic 
order.
