Read More	Charles Glenn Burling, of Clarksville, filling the position of county attorney and well qualified by a comprehensive knowledge of the law and the careful preparation of his cases for the duties that devolve upon him, was born at West Union, Fayette county, Iowa, September 18, 1875, and is a son of P. S. and Flora (Ketchum) Burling. The father, a native of England, came west with his parents in early childhood and settled in Freeport, Illinois, but subsequently removed to Fayette County, Iowa. It was there that he married Flora Ketchum, a native of New York, who had come to this state with her parents. They now reside at Postville, where Mr. Burling has engaged continuously and successfully in the practice of law since 1872, in which year he was graduated from the law department of the State University of Iowa. Unto him and his wife have been born four children: 1. C. G. 2. Josephine, the wife of F. L. Marquis, of Waterloo, Iowa 3. Genevieve 4. W. H., who studied law under his father at the State University and is now practicing his profession as his father's partner C. G. Burling remained with his parents until 1897, when he came to Butler County, remaining for a few months at the county seat and then removing to Clarksville. He is a graduate of the Postville High School of the class of 1892 and was graduated from the State University in 1896, on the completion of the arts course, and from the law department of the State University in 1897. It was then that he came to Butler County, where he has since remained, devoting his time and attention to his profession, in which he has made steady advancement. In politics he has always been a Republican and upon that ticket he was elected County Attorney in January, 1901. The excellent record which he made during his first term's service led to his reelection, and he served for four years. In January, 1913, there occurred a vacancy in the office and the Board of Supervisors appointed him to the position. Aside from his professional interests he is a director in the Butler County State Bank of Clarksville and is financially interested in farm lands. On the 30th of December, 1903, Mr. Burling was married to Miss Lula A. Ray, who was born in this county and is a daughter of J. W. and Emma Ray, of whom mention is made elsewhere in this volume. The two children of this marriage are Beth Ray and Irma May. Fraternally Mr. Burling is a Royal Arch Mason and his allegiance to the organization and its principles is never doubted. High principles of manhood and citizenship have characterized his life and his salient traits are those which win regard, good-will and confidence. In his profession he has made substantial and gratifying progress and his developing ability promises well for the future. (contributed by James Tomlinson - Source: "History of Butler County")
