His parents, John and Agnes (Craik) Christie, were natives of Scotland and emigrated to Canada. In 1858 he came over with his parents who settled in Iowa County, Wisconsin, and on the 10th day of June, 1861, he came to Hancock County and settled at Upper Grove in Amsterdam township. On date of August 18, 1862, he enlisted as a private in Co. B 32nd Iowa Volunteer Infantry and served until May 17, 1865, when he was mustered out as a sergeant, at Memphis, Tennessee. His regiment was engaged in the battles of Pleasant Hill, Fort De Russy, Tupelo, Old Town Creek, Nashville and others. After the war he returned to Hancock county and on March 31, 1867, was married to Miss Polly E. Robbins. The same year he was elected a member of the board of supervisors and in 1869 he was elected first auditor of Hancock county which office he held for eight consecutive years. In 1881 he was again elected auditor and re-elected in 1883. In 1897 he was elected to represent Wright and Hancock counties in the state legislature and served in the Twenty-seventh General Assembly with honor and distinction. When not engaged in public life Mr. Christie preferred the quiet life of a farmer and by his peaceful pursuit acquired considerable property. He was one of the pioneer settlers of the county and we believe its last surviving volunteer soldier. Decedent was a member of the Universalist church, the G. A. R. Post and of Bethel Lodge No. 319 A. F. and A. M.
