Thomas Wilson Spence (1846–1912) of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was a Wisconsin lawyer and a Republican member of the Wisconsin Legislature. A member of the “Ohio Five” matriculating at Cornell University during that institution’s early years, counselor Spence died suddenly, aged 65, on February 23, 1912, while making oral argument in the Wisconsin Supreme Court Chambers at Madison, Wisconsin.〔(Obituaries: T. W. Spence '70 ), ''Cornell Alumni News'', (March 6, 1912)(14:22) at 261.〕 “He died with his tie on.” ==Early life== Mr. Spence’s Cornell Alumni News obituary listed him as born at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. In fact, he was not ‘native’ but rather born in Dungannon, County Tyrone, Ireland on September 2, 1846. The family immigrated to Chillicothe, Ohio, in the wake of 'Án Gorta Mór' or the 'Great Famine' of 1845-1848. The Spence family relocated to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, in 1865. Spence returned to Ohio for studies at Ohio Wesleyan University and joined the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity. He transferred to Cornell in 1869 with several fraternity brothers, taking his Bachelor of Arts, classical course in 1870, after serving as 'the fourth founder' of the New York Alpha Chapter, Phi Kappa Psi at Cornell University. He was a member of the Irving Literary Society. Spence married into a family with ties to upstate New York. His spouse, Mary Cornelia Talmidge of Granville, Wisconsin, was born March 21, 1855, to Nancy Ann Eastman (b. 1820) of Oswego, New York, and Montgomery Wilson Talmidge (1816–1887), hardware merchant, whose parents were from New York.〔Guy Scoby, Eastman Family (1901)〕 Mr. Spence and his wife had one child, Thomas Henry Spence, a Yale man, class of 1899.
