Baldwin, Fred A., was born in the town of Orleans, Jefferson county, and at the age of about fifteen years removed
with his parents to Watertown, where he has since resided. He entered the schools of Watertown and graduated from
the Watertown High School in the classical course, class of '78. After graduation he engaged for a time in teaching
and gained an excellent reputation in the work, filling with great credit the position of principal of schools
at Evans Mills, Cape Vincent and Mannsville. He was for some time principal of a large union free school in West
Troy N. Y., and later held the position of teacher of Latin and instructor of the Teachers' Training Class in the
Watertown High School. He is the possessor of a teacher's State certificate, granted by the state superintendent
of public instruction, which licenses him to teach in any of the common schools of the State during life. Mr. Baldwin
read law with O'Brien, Emerson & Ward (the senior member of which firm is now one of the judges of the Court
of Appeals), and after a due course of study was admitted to the bar. In the fall of 1894 he was elected to the
office of justice of the peace of the city of Watertown by a majority of 1,042. He is now actively engaged in the
practice of his profession at Watertown. In 1892 he married Kate C. Hall of Mannsville, N. Y.
