Charles Hathaway Larrabee (November 9, 1820 January 20, 1883) was a U.S. Representative from Wisconsin. He was also a lawyer and U.S. Army officer. ==Personal== Larrabee was born in Rome, New York, on November 9, 1820, the son of Charles Larrabee of Connecticut. His family moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, where young Charles attended Springfield Academy and then Granville College from 1834 to 1836. At Granville he specialized in English studies, mathematics and ancient languages.〔〔() Wisconsin Court System website〕 Later, he read law with Samson Mason and W.A. Rogers in Springfield, Ohio.〔 He resided in New York, Ohio, Mississippi, Illinois, Wisconsin, California, Oregon and Washington Territory.〔 In 1846, he married Minerva Norton, and they moved to Horicon, Wisconsin.〔 Minerva died in San Francisco in 1873 at age 50.〔("Died," ''Daily Alta California,'' August 8, 1873 )〕〔 Larrabee was killed in a train accident at the Tehachapi Loop near Tehachapi, California, on January 20, 1883.〔(''The New York Times,'' January 22, 1883, at GenDisasters.com, screen 2 )〕〔("The Southern Pacific Horror," ''Daily Globe,'' January 22, 1883, page 1 )〕 He was survived by a son and daughter.〔(Lyman C. Draper, ''A Biographical Sketch of Hon. Charles H. Larrabee'' )〕 Interment was in the Masonic Cemetery, San Francisco.〔(''Biographical Directory of the United States Congress'' )〕 An attempt was made in the settlement of his estate to show that the claim by his second wife was not legitimate, but she produced a marriage certificate and letters to show that it was, and the marriage was therefore allowed in San Bernardino Superior Court.〔("The Larrabee Case Settled," ''San Bernardino Times,'' as reprinted in ''Los Angeles Herald,'' August 26, 1884 ). The first name of the widow was not reported.〕 In June 1884, John Anderson, executor of Larrabee's estate, filed a court action in San Bernardino against the Central Pacific Railroad, asking $100,000 in damages.〔("A Victim of the Tehachapi Horror," ''Daily Alta California,'' June 5, 1884 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles H.
