Page 596 (from a biography of Samuel Marshall Belden)

The gentleman of whom we write is a native of East Wheatley, Franklin Co., Mass., and was born Sept. 13, 1841. His ancestors came originally from Wales to the United States, at an early day, and located on the Connecticut River, purchasing the land on which they carried on their farming operations from the British Government. Mr. Belden is the son of Dr. M. and Judith M. (Marshall) Belden, both of whom were also natives of the old Bay State. In 1848 he came with his parents westward, and settled in Bureau County, Ill., but after a two-years residence the family moved to Palmyra, Wis. A few years after this they went to Dane County, in the same State, in the neighborhood of Madison, where his father practiced medicine. The latter was quite a talented man and very proficient in his profession, and was noted far and wide as an excellent physician. They were the parents of six children who are living, of whom the subject of this sketch was the eldest. The others are: Nellie, the wife of Judge F. E. Parkinson, of Madison, Wis.; Katie, Mrs. Thomas Soden, who is living In Washington Territory; Stephen L., who is a resident of Stoughton, Wis.; Carrie, deceased; and Maud, the wife of C. E. Parish, editor of the Stoughton Courier, in the town of that name, in the Badger State. Dr. Belden died Sept. 3, 1878, at the age of sixty-one years, ten months and twenty-eight days. His death was no doubt caused by the sudden decease of his wife, who was called hence July 16, 1878, at the age of fifty-four years, as he was very much devoted to her.
