A. C. MILLIKIN, farmer, P. O. West Jefferson, son of James Millikin, whose biography appears
above, was born in Canaan Township, Madison Co., Ohio, September 29, 1844. He was raised to farm life, but, from eighteen to the age of twenty-two, was engaged in saw-milling. His succeeding occupation for five years was handling stock in Kansas. In 1874, he returned to Ohio, but, one year later, went again to the West. In the fall of 1876, he accepted the position of railroad agent at Plain City, Madison Co., Ohio, where he remained three years, and, during the same time, was engaged with R. H. Andrews in buying and shipping grain from that point. In 1879, he again engaged in the cattle trade in the West, and in the fall of 1881 returned to Ohio, and, on September 15 of the same year, married Elizabeth (Converse) Smith, widow of Butler Smith. He at once engaged in farming, and feeding and raising cattle, hogs and sheep.
