Biography of Daniel Norton
From HISTORY OF MADISON COUNTY
W. H. Beers [Chicago, 1883]
Page 981
DANIEL NORTON, farmer, P. O. Plain City, was born in Darby Township, Madison County, April 7, 1828. His father, John Norton, was born in Genesee County, N. Y., in 1799, and soon afterward came to this county, where he spent his life. His wife. Sarah (Taylor) Norton, was born in 1802, and, in 1803, came to this county with her father, Daniel Taylor; she still survives, and is remarkably active for one of her years. She retains full possession of her mental faculties, and often entertains her friends with anecdotes and descriptions of early pioneer days in Madison County. Our subject is a farmer by occupation, and, with the
exception of ten years spent in the West, he has given his life's attention to that honorable vocation. On November 12, 1851, he married Sarah E. Daugherty, a daughter of William and Mary A. (Bigelow) Daugherty.
