Biography of Lewis Sidener
From HISTORY OF MADISON COUNTY
W. H. Beers [Chicago, 1883]
Page 1010
LEWIS SIDENER, farmer, P. O. Lilly Chapel, grandson of the pioneer, Philip Sidener, and a third child of David Sidener, who are both mentioned in the history of this township, was born October 12, 1824, in Jefferson Township, where he matured and now lives. He was raised to farm life, and has always followed that pursuit. His hard work, combined with economy and prudent management, has placed him in fair circumstances. His educational privileges were very meager, yet his appreciation of the value of an education are fully indicated by the interest he takes in the educational welfare of his children. He was married, November 9, 1848, to Catharine Anderson, by whom he had seven children, five living. Mr. Sidener has served in several different township offices.
