Notes:

Alexander Gladstone was born March 25, 1854, at Ayr, Ontario, Canada, and there received his early education in the public schools. He was fifteen years of age when he accompanied the family to Missouri, and here his education was completed in the country schools, following which he took up farming with his father. On April 24, 1878, he was married, and at that time erected a residence, barn and other buildings on a tract of seventy-five acres, belonging to his father, land which he soon broke to corn. This property has since been sold to two younger brothers, Mr. Gladstone purchasing 200 acres in Middlefork Township, section 33, township 64. Mr. Gladstone is accounted one of the most practical and progressive agriculturists of his township. He uses the latest improved machinery in the development of his farm, studies the best methods for producing the various cereals adapted to this climate, practices rotation of crops, and, above all, brings to his work that unflagging industry which seldom fails of accomplishment. It is this factor that has brought him a desired success and has gained him a place among the well-to-do farmers of his community. He has a set of good buildings, kept in the best of repair, and his live stock is fat and contented, while the general air of prosperity which hovers over the property gives eloquent evidence as to the good management and thrift of the owner.

Mr. Gladstone married Miss Nancy Jane Maxwell, daughter of Sam and Mary (Houser) Maxwell, of Gentry County, both of whom are now deceased. The Maxwells came originally from Ohio, moved later to Iowa, then to Kansas, and in 1877 came to G-entry County. There were eight children in the Maxwell family, namely: Robert F., Martha Ann, Helen, George, Nancy Jane, Mary, Samuel, and William J. Mrs. Gladstone was educated in the public schools and for several years was a teacher at Great Bend, Kansas, where she received the second teacher's certificate issued at that place.

Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone are members of the Presbyterian Church, in which she has served as superintendent of the Sunday school for a numbar of years and is also president of the Missionary Society, and has been active in religious work. Mr. Gladstone has been identified with the republican party, and although he has not sought political preference has been foremost in advancing the interests of his community, particularly in the line of educational work and good roads. He has served for several years as a member of the school board. To Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone there have been born the following children, all of whom have been given good educational advantages and fitted for the positions in life they have been called upon to fill: Mary, who married E. J. Lyle, a farmer of Nodaway County, Missouri, and has four children, Gladys, Merle, Ross and Hardie; Walter, a farmer whose property is located close to the family homestead, married Charlotte Marshall, and has two children, Opal and Ralph; Martha, who married C. E. Temple, professor of botany in the University of Idaho, and has four children, Margaret, Martha Ross, Helen and Robert; Samuel, of Salem, South Dakota, where he is engaged as a barber, has three children, Fern, Loreu and Bella; Bessie, who is the wife of J. W. Barker, proprietor of a livery and sales stable at Grant City, Missouri; Jane, who is attending the normal school at Marysville; and Helen, who resides at home with her parents."
