Soule, A. G., born August 12, 1811, was the son of Joseph and Esther (Whitney) Soule. He first married Elizabeth
Pierce Putnam, of Boston, who died in June, 1863. He married, second, Adaliza Sherman, September 13, 1865, by whom
he had four children: Albertine Gertrude, born April 30, 1869; Augusta Eugenie, born July 16, 1872; Albert Gallatin,
born December 24, 1875, died March 17, 1876; and Elizabeth Putnam, born November 6, 1877. Mr. Soule was a thorough
business man and a liberal supporter of the Episcopal church, of which he was a member for many years. He held
all the important offices of the town, some of them for many years, performing all the duties incident thereto
with a discretion equalled by few. He represented his town in the Assembly, was a senator from Franklin county,
and was recognized as a wise and prudent legislator. He followed mercantile pursuits in St. Albans and Fairfield,
and had large farming interests which demanded his supervision and care. He carried his keen perception of duty
and right into all the relations of life. He was a wise counsellor and conscientious advisor, and lives in the
hearts of those who knew him. He died March 17, 1883.
