H. G. EDGERTON, D. D. S.
The name Edgerton is of English origin, but
representatives of that family have been many years in the
United States.
Prominent among the business men and manufacturers of
Fremont, Sandusky county, for nearly half a century has been
Chester Edgerton, who was born in Pawlet, Vt., in 1819, and
came to Ohio in 1844. He is now seventy-six years old, and
is living retired. He was an attorney in his day, and a
very successful collector. He was also for a number of
years engaged in the lumber business, as a member of the firm of
Edgerton Bros.; by fair dealing and close attention to
business he accumulated a small fortune, and is recognized as
one of the most successful men of the early days of Fremont.
He is a Republican in politics, and in the year 1847 was elected
mayor of the city. IN 1845 he married Miss Augusta F.
Fusselman, who was born in 1826, and six children were born
to them: Frank, now living in Tennessee; Hattie,
wife of G. Kinney, an attorney at law, of Fremont;
Fannie A., who died in 1879; Maude, wife of Lieut.
John Garvin, U. S. N.; Chester, living in Kansas
City, Mo.; and H. G.
Dr. H. G. Edgerton was born in Fremont, Ohio, Apr.
23, 1859, and was educated in the Fremont public schools and at
Oberlin College. He began the study of dentistry in 1875,
and graduated from the Dental Department of the University of
Ann Arbor (Mich.) in 1881, with the degree of D. D. S. He
practiced his profession at Toledo, Ohio, one year, and then
came to Fremont, where he has had a leading practice for several
years in his pleasant rooms over the First National Bank.
He is a Republican, a member of the Knights of Pythias and of
the National Union, and is connected with several social clubs
of the city. On Jan. 29, 1884, he married Miss Clara
Meek, daughter of B. Meek, an attorney at law, and
four children have been born to them: Mary B., Rachel,
Dorothy and Henry Meek.
