Ostrander, Smith, Herkimer, was born in Danube December 5, 1851. He was 
educated in the Little Falls Academy and Fort Plain Seminary, after which he 
taught school for two years. After this he was engaged with E. Butterick & 
Company of New York city, and also upon the Herkimer St. R. R. as conductor. 
His health failing he was compelled to return to the farm. After a few years 
he engaged with Morris Mark, and in 1887 formed a joint stock company for the 
manufacture of knit goods. This corporation is the Mohawk Yaliey Knitting 
Company, which since that period has grown to large proportions. Later another 
stock company was formed, another management offered him. In both these 
concerns he is a large stock holder and superintendent. He now devotes half 
his time to each corporation and has made both a decided success. Mr. 
Ostrander is a son of John Ostrander. of Ostrander's Corners. He married Miss 
Emma C. Dayger of Herkimer, in 1878.  They have no family.
