DUANE M. DOTY.
One of the prominent business men of Shelby, Ohio, is
Duane M. Doty, who was born in this place in 1855,
and is the son of John and Sarah (Rutan) Doty,
the former of whom died at the age of seventy-seven, the
latter still surviving. They came to Shelby from
Crawford county, Ohio, in 1868, and engaged in farming.
They were the parents of seven children: Joseph,
who now lives at Lexington; James H., who lives
at Marion, Ohio; Lewis Calvin, who lives at
Eureka, Utah; Emma, who lives in Shelby; Mrs.
Mary Harman who lives in Shelby; Mrs. Sarah
McCarty who lives in Barbertown, Ohio; and our
subject.
Until 1892 our subject remained on the old homestead
farm, but at that date he came to Shelby and engaged in
work at the Tube works, where he remained until 1895,
when he became interested with C. G. Grosscup in
the plumbing business and has been occupied in that line
ever since. The business is conducted on modern
lines and meets with the approval of the people of his
town. He is considered a good and reliable citizen
and is regarded with respect and esteem.
