Charles D. Cutting

Howard County

Born in Haverhill, N. H., on July 10, 1834, the son of Elijah and Permelia (Engles) Cutting. He received his education in the schools of New Hampshire, and after finishing his education assisted his father with the farm work until he was seventeen years old, when he undertook farming on his own account. In 1855 he removed to Riceville. Howard County, Iowa, improved raw land and farmed there for thirty-nine years; then he sold out and moved to California in 1893, and located in the Santa Clara Valley. The marriage of Mr. Cutting in Iowa united him with Miss Anna Bourne, born at East Falmouth, Mass. Before removing to California, Mr. Cutting served as a member of the state legislature of Iowa. In his political affiliations he is a steadfast Republican. He has ever been an earnest and enterprising citizen, intent on making the interests of his adopted state lie parallel with those of his own personal efforts. The family are active in the social, religious, and political circles of their locality. The success which he enjoys is merited by his long and industrious career, his close devotion to personal interests, and the wise judgment he has exercised in his investments.
