• Notes

  Taken from The History of Tuscola County, Biographical Sketches and Illustrations, H. R. Page Co., Chicago, 1883. Transcribed by Bonnie Petee. G. KILE was born in Pennsylvania in 1852, and came to Tuscola County with his parents in 1856, and settled upon the farm now owned and occupied by the subject of this sketch. His father, N. Kile, died in July 1858. Mr. Kile was married in October, 1880, to Miss Tilley Fritz, of Pennsylvania, and has one son. His farm contains 160 acre of land on sections 12 and 13. G. KILE, SR., was born in Columbus County, Pa., in 1818, remaining there until he became of age. In 1838 he was married to Miss Nancy Schultz, of that county, and soon thereafter bought a piece of land in the locality and commenced farming for himself, which he continued until 1852 when he sold out and came to Michigan. He at first rented a farm near Ann Arbor, upon which he resided two years, when he came to the township of Juniata and, after traveling a long distance through the unbroken wilderness, took up the farm upon which he now resides, and subsequently added eighty acres, making him a farm of 160 acres. 7/29/07-checked cass city enterprise for obit--none tuscola probate file cal#2 file#2076
