HARRY C. VINTON Born September 1, 1838 in Ohio. At the election of 1863 he was elected Representative in the Tenth General Assembly. He came from Massachusetts and had friends in Bradford, and came West to grow up with the country. He went into the raising of sheep and erected barns and sheds and stocked his farm with sheep. He was elected for various reasons, and among them was the fact that his friends stood high, and their influence was a power, and this was supplemented with the cry that he would be a representative of the farming interests of the county, especially of the new industry of sheep raising.
