The early life of Mr. Armstrong was spent in attending the common schools and assisting his father on the farm. When twenty-one years of age he began life for himself, and at the time went to Owensburg, and engaged in the mercantile business in partnership with Mr. Hatfield.
This partnership lasted until the breaking out of the late war, when Mr. Armstrong was the third man to enlist in Jackson Township, Greene County. He was a member of Company H, Fifteenth Indiana Volunteers. He was, after three months service, honorably discharged at Indianapolis.
About this time Mr. Armstrong began trading and dealing in stock, which he has since continued. As a trader he has been very successful. He owns 1,000 acres of good land. His improvements on the home farm are among the best to be found in Perry Township.
The marriage of Mr. Armstrong took place in 1867, to Miss Sarah Rector, a native of Martin County, Ind. They have four living children, viz.: Iona G., Schuyler C., Homer and Lulu.
Mr. Armstrong has been a life-long Republican. In 1874 he was elected Trustee of Perry Township, re-elected in 1876, and re-elected again in 1880. During his last administration he erected the Springville graded school building. Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong are members of the Christian Church. He is one of the leading men of Lawrence county and an honorable citizen.
