HARRY ORSBORN, liveryman, Franklin, son of William L. and Margaret N. Orsborn, was born near Deerfield, Union Township, Warren Co., Ohio, June 19, 1850. He was reared on a farm. His parents were among the pioneers of the county. In July, 1872, he came to Franklin, and drove an omnibus between here and Lebanon four years. He began in the livery business Oct. 21, 1876, on Fourth street, near the Miami River, where he keeps nine horses and carriages, and is now doing quite a lively business. He was married, Feb. 22, 1877, to Louisa Clawson, a native of Kentucky; they had three children, two living—Margaret and Albert. Mr. Orsborn is a member of the Odd Fellows society, in which he has passed through the full number of degrees. Mr. Orsborn has been very successful in business. When he first started, he only had four horses and carriages, and for these he owed; he is now doing a good business, and is out of debt. |
