Michigan Jackson
Fidus Livermore came to Jackson in May, 1839, and was admitted to the practice of the law the same year. He at once took a stand among the leading members of the bar, and has to the present time continued in the practice of his profession. In that, as in all other relations of life, Mr. Livermore has always been regarded as one of the leading citizens of Jackson.
Mr. Livermore was elected township treasurer in 1840, to the house
of representatives of the legislature of Michigan in 1842 and again in 1843; was appointed prosecuting attorney in 1846 by Gov. Felch, and in 1848 by Gov. Ransom. He was elected prosecuting attorney in 1854, and was democratic candidate for judge of probate in 1858. Mr. Livermore was nominated for representative to congress in 1874, and again in 1876, and though unsuccessful, as the democratic party was largely in the minority, yet he always run ahead of his ticket in Jackson county, thus proving the high estimation in which he was held by those who had longest and best known him.
