Isaac and Mary (Rice) Gleason, being pioneers in Lewis county NY, as some of their ancestors were in the section from which they came, although they were themselves born and reared in the state of New York. The father was a farmer and took up a tract of wild land in Lewis county in his young manhood, and by strenuous and continued effort cleared it and made an excellent farm of it. On that farm the mother died on October 11, 1838, and not long after her demise, the father, with his mind still attuned to the untaught and rugged music of the frontier, came to Michigan, where he died in October 1860. They had four sons and one daughter, all now deceased.
