Chick, Charles F., p. o. Attica, N. Y.-One of the most extensive and successful
farmers and breeders of fine horses and cattle in Darien, Genesee county. N. Y., is Charles F. Chick, who has a
farm of 186 acres. Mr. Chick is the son of George and Jane (Percy) Chick, who emigrated from England to Batavia,
N. Y., in 1852, from which place, after six months, they removed to Buffalo. Mr. Chick and his twin brother. William,
were born December 21, 1855, on the Charles F. West farm at Cold Spring, Buffalo, which farm of 300 acres his father
conducted for nineteen years. His schooling was limited, but being a naturally intelligent youth with a keen perception,
he made up for his lack of schooling by those best of teachers, observation and experience. In 1871 he removed
with his parents to Bennington, N. Y., where he married Carrie, daughter of Henry Walker; their children were Henry
and Arthur. Mrs. Chick died on January 29, 1894, and Mr. Chick married for his second wife, on December 30, 1895,
Ella M., daughter of John and Elizabeth C. (Sterling) Foltz.
