| Notes |
- Andrew B. Wallace was born in New-
burg, Fifeshire, Scotland, March 27, 1842,
son of David and Christina (Brabner) Wal-
lace, the former named a representative of
an ancient and honorable Scotch family. He
was a dealer in wood, a member of the
Town Council, a member of the Presbyte-
rian Church, and a man of influence in his
town. He died in 1894.
Andrew B. Wallace attended school in his
native town until the age of fifteen years,
then was apprenticed to a dry goods mer-
chant for a term of four years. \Vhen that
term expired, in 1862, he left home and
went to Stirling, going thence to Glasgow,
remaining in those two cities until 1867,
when he came to the United States, locating
in Boston, Massachusetts. Being an ex-
perienced dry goods clerk, and before com-
ing over, well known, he was hired by a
Boston firm, Hogg, Brown & Taylor, while
in Glasgow. From Boston Mr. Wallace went
to Pittsfield, Massachusetts, where for four
years he was a member of the firm of Smith
& Wallace. That firm continued in business
until 1874, when Mr. Wallace withdrew and
moved to Springfield, Massachusetts, there
founding the dry goods firm of Forbes &
Wallace.
