The family is of Virginia origin on both sides of the house, the Ohio branch being founded by Lewis Andrews, who became one of the early settlers of Clinton county. Lewis Andrews, son of the foregoing, married Ellen, daughter of Eli and Mary (Goldsborough) Bolin, also an early Ohio settler from Virginia and a man of mark in his day. Among the children resulting from this union as Calvin Andrews, subject of this sketch, who was born within ten miles of where he now resides on Jan. 25, 1849, and is the only living descendant of the original settler. At an early period of life he nurtured an ambition to become a teacher and with a view to preparing himself thoroughly for this vocation entered the National Normal university at Lebanon, Ohio. As soon as he had finished at that institution, Mr. Andrews assumed the task of teaching and followed that occupation with success and constantly increasing reputation for many years. During this period, while publishing a paper at Leesburg, he began the agitation to abolish the fee system and place all county officials on salaries, and it was largely through his active efforts that this wholesome reform was eventually consummated. Mr. Andrews has held all of the more important township offices and proved himself to be an excellent business man by the manner in which he discharged these duties. For five years he was township clerk and for four years he held the office of assessor. He was also elected township trustee but resigned that position in 1889 to accept the office of superintendent of the county Infirmary at Hillsboro. This place he retained for two years and discharged its duties so acceptably as to be offered another term, but this honor he declined. Since retiring from public life, he has resided in comparative repose on his country place near Leesburg but maintains a watchful interest in all events and movements affecting affairs in his county, town or township. Mr. Andrews married Margery Ladd, daughter of Jeremiah and Rebecca Ladd, one of the staunch old Quaker families of Fairfield township. She was born in the house where she now resides Nov. 23, 1850, and was the youngest of the thirteen children of Jeremiah and Rebecca (Moorman) Ladd, her father having been born in North Carolina in 1797 and settled near Leesburg, with his parents in 1808. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews have two children, Rodney L. and Brice J. The former married Fannie Covan of Leesburg, and is now engaged in the mercantile business there, is a member of the town council and of the board of education and takes an active interest in all public affairs. Brice J., who married Laura Griffith of Leesburg and resides there, having one child, Lillian Margery, has devoted much time to newspaper work and as a writer is regarded as having superior talents. These two sons and their wives are all high school graduates. Source: History of Highland County, Ohio by Rev. J. W. Klise - Publ. Madison, Wis., Northwestern Historical Association, 1902, p. 230.
