ANDREW BENDER— born in Otter district, Braxton county, August 23, 1845, and Elizabeth Eliza Lloyd, born in this district, October 17, 1849, were here united in marriage, September 5, 1867. In the home their union established are their six children: Tabitha Susan, born February 4, 1869; John Isaac, December 11, 1870; Sabina Catharine, October 25, 1872;Christina Jane, October 15, 1875; lva Belle, August 4, 1878; Luther Lloyd, June 20, 1881. John and Ann Catharine (Dabus) Bender are the parents Andrew Bender, and his wife is a daughter of Isaac Hyer Lloyd and Catharine Mary (McPherson) Lloyd.

Henry Bender, brother of Andrew, held a lieutenant's commission in the Federal army, Company F, 10th West Virginia Infantry, during the war between the States.

The parents of Mr. Bender were married in Baltimore, Maryland, and came to Steer creek from that city, among the earliest settlers here. Both were German-born. John Bender went West, and was taken sick and died in Keokuk, Iowa. His widow is still living on Steer creek, this district.

Andrew Bender was born on Steer creek, and passed his life here. He followed farming until 1882, when he put up a store on his farm, near his house, and added a general mercantile business to his labors. He at once acquired a good custom and is doing well. His store is well-stocked, and his farm contains 350 acres, 100 acres under cultivation, raising grain and fruit, and the remainder finely timbered. He has some fine cattle and sheep, and is doing a good business in stock-raising.

His address is Chapel P. O., Braxton county, West Virginia.
