    Biography:
    WILLIAM J. LAIRD, who was born November 8, 1880, in Outagamie county, Wisconsin, is one of the enterprising young farmers of Bovina township, where he is serving as treasurer of the school board. He is a son of James and Mary A. (Moore) Laird, the former a native of Ireland and the latter of Wisconsin. James Laird came to the United States in boyhood with his mother, and settled in Outagamie county, where he spent many years in agricultural pursuits and died in 1890, aged fifty-eight years. His widow, who survives him, is living in Outagamie county, and is fifty-three years old. They had five children, namely: William J.; Mary, who died at the age of fourteen years; Anna, who married Lewis Sykes and lives in Outagamie county; James A., who is single and taking a course in agriculture at the State University at Madison; and Emma, who married Thomas Henry of Ellington township. William J. Laird received his education in the public schools, after leaving which he started to work on the home farm. At the time of his father's death he took over the management of the place, operating it for his mother, and when the children became of age he bought their interests and now has full control. He is engaged in general farming and stock raising, making a specialty of dairying, and milks on an average of ten cows the year around. About seventy acres of the home farm are under cultivation, the remainder being in timber. The buildings are substantial and well kept and the property is entirely fenced with barbed wire. Mr. Laird is a member of the F. R. A., and is a republican in politics, being the present treasurer of the Bovina township school board. He and Mrs. Laird are members of the Ellington Congregational Church.
    On June 23, 1909, Mr. Laird was married to Miss Jessie Ham, who was born March 27, 1883, the second of the six children of John D. and Sarah (Moore) Ham. Mr. and Mrs. Laird have no children.
