              THOMAS O. SPRINGER

         Thomas O. Springer was born November 2, 1827, in Madison County, Illinois. He grew up on a farm and attended the public schools; later he entered McKendree and was graduated in the scientific course in 1849. He was one of the founders of the Platonian Literary Society. The death of his parents added new responsibilities, under which he conducted himself as a faithful elder brother, keeping the family together on the farm and assisting in the education of his younger brothers. In 1855, he was married to Miss Emma M. Thompson, who died in 1858. He was married again in 1872 to Miss Ella J. Randle, of Lebanon, Illinois. From 1856 to 1864, he was Clerk of the Circuit Court. He also held the office of supervisor. In politics, he was a Whig until the organization of the Republican party, and ever after that was a staunch Republican. He was member of the Methodist Church, the order of A. F. & A. M., R. A. M., and Knights of Honor. In 1890, Mr. Springer moved to Thornberry, Texas, and later to Compton, Calif., where he died in 1909.
