Notes for MARTIN ALGER:

  The first steam saw mill was built by Martin Alger and Howard Richardson in 1850. That mill did a great amount of work in its time. The saw first used was a sash (up and down) saw, but by and by a circular saw was employed instead of the upright one. It was two miles east of Roann. Martin, settled in Indiana in 1848.

Martin had cattle, horses and hogs that he ran on his place. Martin had 179.40 acres. He was a very prominent citizen of Paw Paw Township.

 Martin Alger's Cemetery, southeast of Laketon, near Martin Alger's northwest quarter of section 26, Township 29, Range 6; This burial ground was established in 1846, not in connection with any religious society, or any house of worship, but simply because the people of the region needed a convenient place in which to bury their dead.

It has been in constant use for the purposes of its creation and is so employed at the present day. We have no detailed account for publication in this work. The cemetery is located in the northeast part of the township in the vicinity of the residence of Martin Algers, northwest of the town of Urbana.

  "There was only one house within a mile of our dwelling when we settled in 1869. That settler was Ephraim Baer, and the rest were farther away. Only four houses were to be found in the entire distance to Wabash. Deer and turkeys were plenty. The Indians had been mostly gone for a few years, but the camps and bark tents which they had occupied as they traversed the region in hunting and fishing were still to be seen.Deer would come right up to the house without fear. The land in the region had been owned largely by speculators, which fact had proved, as it has uniformly done, a hindrance to settlement and a bane to the interests of the region at large. I was not a hunter, but busied myself otherwise.

Some deer were yet to be found nearly up to the time of the war. The graveyard near our house was begun in about 1846. Jacob Fodge built a sawmill which was run by steam, erected about 1860, which was in operation until around 1882.

  Martin Alger is a Democrat in politics and belongs to the Disciple Church. Disciples Church (History of Wabash County 1884) This body of christian believers have had preaching inthat region for twenty-five or thirty years.
Their meetings were held, however, in dwellings, and barns, and groves, and school houses until 1871, at which time their present place of worship was built in the northern part of South Laketon. The members of the church have been as follows; Martin Alger, Jefferson Alger, Freeman Alger, Marshall Alger, Thomas Downey, and others. The elders of the society are George M. Brown and James Downey. The Deacons are Arthur Ward, Jefferson Alger and Daniel Brown. The Trustees are Martin Alger, George M. Brown, James Downey and John Ward. Sunday school every Sabbath at 9 A.M. It numbers fifty pupils. The Superintendant is James Downey. The preachers have been Messrs. E.Thompson, O.Brown, L. Carpenter, Frank Collins, Walker, Wharton and Lemmon. The church cost $2,000. In 1866 or 1867, the disciples had preaching in a grove south of town by Rev.Walker, who also held a debate with some clergyman, on points of controversy between the two denominations.
