Wilbur F. Sanders : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wilbur F. Sanders
Wilbur Fisk Sanders (May 2, 1834 – July 7, 1905) was a United States Senator from Montana. A leading pioneer and a skilled lawyer, Sanders played a prominent role in the development of Montana Territory and the state's early political history. ==Early life== Sanders was born in Leon, Cattaraugus County, New York to Ira and Freedom (Edgerton) Sanders. His father was a farmer originally from Rhode Island and his mother a native of Connecticut. Being a devout Methodist, Ira Sanders named his first-born son after a hero of his faith, the founding president of Wesleyan University, Willbur Fisk (the name was often misspelled by his contemporaries using one "l" instead of two). Family stories tell of a precocious child displaying a keen intellect and studious character. Wilbur attended the common schools in New York, and afterward taught school himself. Following his mother's wishes, Sanders moved to Akron, Ohio in 1854, where he continued teaching and studied law under his uncle, Sidney Edgerton. Sanders' Uncle Sidney, 13 years his elder, exercised a profound impact on his life.〔 Also born in western New York, Edgerton had moved to Akron, Ohio ten years earlier rising to prominence under the tutelage of veteran Ohio politician and lawyer, Rufus P. Spalding. Edgerton likewise took Sanders under his wing. Sanders gained admission to the bar in 1856, and he and Edgerton soon entered a law partnership. Edgerton had become involved with the Free Soil Party in the 1840s, and, by the mid 1850s, about the time Sanders joined him in Akron, his political activities shifted to the fledgling Republican Party.〔 Sanders followed his uncle's political development. On October 27, 1858, Sanders married Harriet P. Fenn, a native of Ohio. They had five children, but only three survived into adulthood: James, Wilbur E., and Louis.
