WARREN N. BUCK.
Mr. Buck made Jackson his home in 1839. He was for many years engaged in the mercantile business on the east side of the river, first with Wm. Ford, Jr., and subsequently with Henry Vandercook. Mr. Buck was elected mayor in 1867, and again in 1868. He is now an acting justice of the peace, having been four times elected. He has also been for many years supervisor or town clerk, and has for most of the time for thirty years been a member of the school board in the district in which he lives. Mr. Buck has, in all the relations of life, maintained a character above
reproach.
Walter Budington came to Michigan and settled in Jackson in' 1836. He engaged in 1838 in the mercantile business with B. W. Rockwell. He was cashier of the Detroit and St. Joseph Railroad Bank. Mr. Budington was one of the most public spirited of the pioneers of Jackson, and was for many years of his life connected with its interests by holding offices of more usefulness than profit. He was for many years a member of the school board in district No. 17. He was also several times elected supervisor, also town clerk; was county clerk from 1848 to 1852, and city treasurer in 1863-4-5.
