James, the subject of this sketch, was married 19th January, 1868, to Agnes Sudden, daughter of John and Margaret Sudden, and who was born 29th January, 1848. They have a family of four children-James, Margaret H., Alice H. and Antoinette. the saw mill which Mr. Ford first owned was built in 1872, and was destroyed by fire in 1877. Mr. Ford rebuilt the same the saw mill he at present owns, and it is one adapted in all respects for logging, cutting shingles, etc., and has proved , in a business point of view, an eminent success. He is also owner of the property that lies between his house and the river, as well as a blacksmith shop and two separate properties, one 140 acres and the other 290 acres- in all 430 acres-besides his town property and 100 acres in the Township of Melanchton.
