(Editor's Note: The Bradenton Herald of Jan. 7, carried the following account of Thomas Benton Gallup, who died Monday morning at the age of 78, after a long illnests, at. Bradenton, Florida.
Thomas,Benton Gallup. 78, died this morning at 4:30 o'clock, following an illnesa of two months. Mr. Gallup came to Bradenton 27 years ago with his wife, Lira Karl, from his boyhood home, in Knox, Albany county, N. Y. in hope of recovering from a severe illness. With the exception of an occasional trip north, he remained in Bradenton, and was the means of attracting many from his section of the state, to Manatee county where a considerable number several East have become permanent residents. Mr. Gallup had engaged in business undertakings in the city and vicinity of Albany, N. Y., but later on account of his health, had retired to the family homestead in Knox when he built a modern residence near the house built by his pioneer grand father, Squire John Enos Gallup, who came from New England in the early part of the nineteenth century, and settled in the Helderberg hills, the upper part of the Catskill range. The house he built of hewn timber is still occupied.
Here twelve sons and daughters were born to Squire John Enos Gallup who for over a quarter of a century was justice of the peace in the highland township, twenty miles from Albany.
His eleventh child, Elon Gallup, was the father of Thomas Benton. He was a man of wide reading and strong religious beliefs, shared by his wife Nancy Broeffle, who was of a line of pioneer preachers of Holland stock. Consequently, Thomas Benton
