Biography:
Patrick Bailey, a leading representative self-made farmer of Glenmore township, Brown County, was born about 1821 in county Kerry, Ireland. son of John and Nellie (Bresnehan) Bailey, who had three sons of whom Patrick is the only one living. The mother died when he was three years old, and about a year later the father was remarried.
Patrick Bailey had fair educational advantages in his youth, and was reared from boyhood to farming, remaining at home until he reached the age of nineteen years. Wages were low in Ireland, so when Patrick determined to come to America his father supplied him with means to pay his way, and in the Spring of 1843 he sailed from his native town, Blennerville, on the "Joan" landing in Quebec after a voyage of six weeks. Here he was given employment helping to unload the vessel and then to reload her with lumber, and after this, went to Montreal, where he worked for sometime on the Lachine canal. He next went to New York City, thence aftera few days to Boston, Mas., and thence to Lowell, where he found employment as a laborer between Lowell and Andover for a few weeks, working on improvements along the Marrimac River. His next move was to Fitchburg, same WState, where he worked in the Fitchburg & Massachusetts railroad, and he subsequently worked in various places in Massachusetts, in almost every part of the state; thence went to Keene, N. H., working there as laborer on a railroad, and later engaged in the same line of work at Brattleboro, Vt. after which he again came to Massachusetts, and worked in South Hadley.
On January 8, 1848 Mr. Bailey was married in Cabotsville, Mass., to Bridget Moran, who was born about 1830 in South Boston, daughter of John and Kate (Donahue) Moran, both natives of Ireland. in the summer of 1848 our subject went to Buffalo, N.Y., and there worked in cityimprovements for a while; thence removed to Springfield, Ohio, where he was employed on a railroad to Cincinnati, then in couse of contruction, and subsequentlly lived for a time in Sidney, Ohio. The ague being prevalent here, another move was made, this time to Chillicothe, Ohio, where Mr. Bailey also worked on railroads, and he next worked on the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern railroad, near Marietta, Ohio, and partley bargained for a farm in Washington county, but hearing of the cheap land offered to settlers in the new state of Wisconsin, he concluded to abandon railroad work and commence farming on his own account. Three children had been born to them in Ohio, John, Sidney; Ellen in Chillicothe; and Mary A. in Washington county, and with his wife and family, Mr. Bailey came to Wisconsin in the summer of 1854; joureying via Columbus to Cleveland, where they took the boat for Green Bay, landing in that city in July. Leaving the family in Green Bay, Mr. Bailey went to Kaukauna, where he obtained employment on the canal then building, and shortly afterward purchased eighty acres, at $2.50 per acre, in Section 7, Glenmore township, Brown County, which tract was totally unimproved, and the family lived with a neighbor, Thomas Lawlor, while their log cabin was being built. The forest was so dense that a space had to be cleared even for the small dwelling into which moved October 10, 1854, and at this time there was no road to this farm, only a path through the woods. They had hired a man to bring out their few household goods, but the driver finding it difficult to proceed with the horse and wagon on the latter part of the way, the goods were left in the road, where Mr. Bailey found them, and it took him several days to get them to the house, one of the neighbors, "Con" Leary loaning him an ox team for the purpose. The work of clearing was begun at once, but it was many years before the farm became productive, and Mr. Bailey worked at lumbering during the winter season to earn enough to support his family. A large amount of lumber was cut, but as there was scarcely any demand for it then, they had to burn many thousand feet of valuable beech and maple to rid the land of it. Those pioneers endured many trials and privations, in improving and cultivating their tract, but tey succedded in converting the dense forest into a comfortable farm, and Mr. Bailey has, by his own unaided efforts, risen to a position among the respected, properous agriculturists of this section, his life showiing what may be accomplished by energy and deterination, coupled with perserverance and honesty. He now own 160 acres of excellent land, on which he conducts a successful farming business. he has served two terms as supervisor in his township, giving satisfaction to all; but he prefers to give his attention to his private affairs, and is not an active patisan, voting for the man he considers best qualified for the office. In religious faith he is a member of St. Francis Church, De Pere.
Mr. and Mrs. Bailey have had fourteen children, three of whom were born in Ohio, as above recoded, and the others in Wisconsin, a brief record of them being as follows: John is a resident of Minneapolis, Minn.; Ellen is the wife off Milan Smith of Fond du lac, Wis.; Mary A. is the wife of John Sloan of Se Pere; Kate is living in Ashland, Wis.; James died when eighteen months od; Bridget is the wife of James Jennings, of Scott township, Brown County; Agnes is the wife of John Rummel, of Ashland, Wis.; Lizzie is the wife of James Mills, of Ashlanf; Alice is living at home; Thomas is a resident of Montana; George is living in Washington; Patrick is at home; and one child died in infancy.
On March 13, 1865, Mr. Bailey enlisted in Company F, Fifieth Wis., V. I. and did duty through northern Missouri, at Fort Leavenworth, Kans. and Fort Rice, Dak, during his service contracting rheumatism, from which he has ever since suffered. He was discharged in July, 1866, and returned at once to his home and family. Our subject is well and favorably known throughout his section, and stands prominent among Glenmore townships most respected citizens.
