      !A GEDCOM file from James Robertson - Buried in Crown Hill Cemetery. (Jan. 3, 1998 - DWM)
      CHWCI(pp. 628, 701-703.):
      "Many substantial buildings in Salem and throughout Washington
      and neighboring counties bear evidence to the painstaking care which John M.
      Colglazier, a well-known building contractor, of Salem, gives to constructive
      work entrusted to him. For many years Mr. Colglazier has been one of the
      leading contractors in this part of the state and has, therefore, had much to
      do with the substantial character of the upbuilding of this community.
      "John M. Colglazier was reared a farmer and was educated in the district
      schools of his home neighborhood and in Mays Academy at Salem. In his
      youth he learned the carpenter trade from his father and all his life has
      been actively engaged in building operations in this county, at the same time
      carrying on extensive farming operations. Mr. Colglazier remained on the
      home farm until his marriage in 1887, after which he bought a farm adjoining
      that of his father and there lived until 1906, in which year he moved
      to Salem for the better convenience of his contracting business. There he
      bought a planing-mill, a valuable addition to his building operations, and is
      still profitably operating the same. In addition to the numerous prominent
      residences that Mr. Colglazier has erected in Salem and throughout the
      county, he has done considerable work in the way of public buildings, the
      woodwork in the Salem high school, the I.O.O.F. hall at Hardensburg and
      several substantial warehouses being among the structures which bear the
      impress of his handiwork.
      "Mr. and Mrs. Colglazier are members of the Christian church at Salem
      and take a proper part in the various beneficences of the church, being
      interested in all movements looking to community betterment, and they and
      their children are highly esteemed by their many friends. Mr. Colglazier
      has propered and is counted among the most substantial citizens of Washington
      county. He is a Republican and for years has been actively interested
      in the political affairs of the county, having served for two terms as
      chairman of the Republican county central committee. He is an alert, energetic
      and enterprising business man and enjoys the full confidence and the
      utmost regard of his business associates and the community in general."
      I remember that he had several fingers partially missing do to carpentry
      accidents.
