GLENN JACOB VERNIER.
The firm of Vernier, McLaughlin-Probeck
Company at Archbold is one of the best known business firms
in Fulton county, and for many years has stood for progress
and fair dealing. Among the active members of this
firm is its secretary and treasurer, Glenn J. Vernier,
to whom a large part of the prosperity of the firm is due
and who has, because of his splendid business qualities and
excellent personal traits, won the esteem of the entire
community.
Glenn J. Vernier has been a life-long resident
of Archbold, his birth having occurred here in 1889, and he
is the son of A. J. and Hattie (Downer) Vernier.
He is descended from sterling French ancestry on the
paternal side, his great-grandfather Vernier having
come from France to the United States, settling in the
vicinity of Archbold. The subject of this sketch was
reared here and received his elementary education in the
public schools, graduating from the high school in 1900.
He then took a commercial course in the Quincy Business
College at Quincy, Illinois, where he was graduated in 1908.
Immediately thereafter he went to work in his fathers
store, with which he has been identified ever since, and is
now a member of the firm of Vernier, McLaughlin-Probeck
Company, of which he is secretary and treasurer. The
company has a capital stock of $50,000 and they carry one of
the largest and most complete stocks of hardware of every
description, implements, building material, etc., to be
found in Fulton county, commanding a trade covering a wide
radius of surrounding country.
In 1909 Mr. Vernier was married to Eva
Fagley, the daughter of Conrad and Anna Fagley,
of Archbold, and they have become the parents of two
children, Pauline Catherine and Jacob
Robert.
Mr. Vernier has been an earnest supporter
of the republican party, and in 1915 was elected to the
office of city clerk, in which position he served four
years. In 1917 he was elected to the City Council and
is still a member of that body. Fraternally he is a
member of the Free and Accepted Masons, in which he has
attained the thirty-second degree of the Scottish Rite, and
is also a member of Zenobia Temple, Ancient Arabic Order
Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, at Toledo, Ohio. He
possesses to a marked degree those sterling traits which
ever command uniform confidence and regard, and he is
numbered today among the enterprising business men of his
community.
