Vine Welch
MEMOIR OF the. VINE WELCH.
In the death of Vine Welch, which occurred in the city of Ionia, the departure of one whose life entered very largely into the early history and development of Ionia county is mourned. The pioneers were a brave and vigorous class of men, the worth of whose
lives to the history of the State can scarcely be too highly valued. Not the least among them was the one whose death is referred to above, and whose life we proceed briefly to sketch.
He was born in Schoharie county, in the State of New York. October 9, 1819. At the age of seventeen he came with his father to Michigan. This was in the autumn of 1836.
