HERRING - The psalmist says that three score and ten years is the allotted span of man's life and yet there are scores of people living in Hendricks county who have passed that age and hundreds of others who are just approaching it. Among the latter is Phillip B. Herring, who was born in 1846 in Hendricks county, near Clayton. His parents were Azriah and Ellen (Beasley) Herring, both natives of Kentucky, who both came to this county in early days with their parents and were married at Belleville. Azriah Herring worked by the day at various kinds of employment for the first ten or twelve years after his marriage, when he purchased one hundred and twenty acres of land in the western part of Brown township. On this farm he lived for the next thirty years, when he sold it and bought another farm in the northwestern part of the same township, where he lived until his death. Mr. and Mrs. Azriah Herring reared a family of fourteen children. Phillip B. Herring lived under the parental roof until he was married in 1874 and often laughs because he was married at seven o'clock on the morning of January ist, saying that for once he started the new year right. Previous to his marriage he had purchased thirty-three acres of land where he now resides, and since that time has added twenty-seven acres more until he is now owner of sixty acres of as fine farming land as can be found in the county. On this farm he has a good house and large and commodious barns and outbuildings, and has his farm well improved in everv wav. Mr. Herring was married to America Walker, the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Ann (Menefee) Walker, who were both natives of Kentucky, coming to this county after their marriage, settling in Washington township about 1862, but later buying forty acres of land in Brown township. America Walker was one of three children living at home when she was married. Mr. and Mrs. Herring are the parents of four children: Minnie Alice, who married Conrad Marker, the son of Amos and Laura Marker, and they live just across the road from Mr. Herring and have a family of four children, Lawrence, Cleo, Eula L. and Violet A.; Angie Belle is the wife of Virgil S. Watson, the editor of the Brownsburg Record, whose history is given elsewhere in this volume. Mr. and Mrs. Watson have one daughter, Hazel Bernice; Mary E., who lives at home, and Carl C, who married Sallie Funkhouser, the daughter of Lucien and Mira (Crane) Funkhouser. Carl is a farmer living in this township. Mr. and Mrs. Herring are both loyal and faithful members of the Methodist Protestant church at Brownsburg and give it their zealous support, having always been interested in the activities of this denomination. Mr. Herring, in addition to his farming interests, made a specialty of breeding fine horses and has won several prizes at the county and state fairs with some of his best stock. In recent years he has retired from active work and at the present time is only supervising the management of his farm. He is a well preserved man, despite his sixty-eight years, and has a host of friends wherever he is known. Through his long residence in this county he has gained an enviable reputation for hii integrity and generosity, and is justly regarded as one of the representative men of his community.
