Notes:

From the HISTORY OF ONTARIO COUNTY; compiled by Lewis Cass Aldrich; edited by George S. Conover; 1893;

Olney T. Padelford, Canandaigua, was born on his present residence in Canandaigua, July 14, 1837. His father, Zachariah, was born in East Taunton, Mass., March 18, 1800, and died March 1, 1887, a moulder by trade. When twenty-one years of age he came to Western New York, working near Batavia and also in Gorham, but returned to Massachusetts. In 1824 he settled permanently in Canandaigua, working in the furnaces at Wolcott, Ontario and Manchester during the winters, and farming summers. He gradually increased his possessions until at one time he owned in one block 280 acres. He was a Republican, and when the Auburn division of the New York Central Railroad was built, Mr. Padelford established a wood yard here and furnished the company with wood, and it was from this the station was named Padelford. He married in this town Susan, (died August 13, 1860), daughter of Zachariah Tiffany, of Canandaigua, and they had four children: Harvey, of Padelford Station; Mary, who died aged four years; Edmund, who died aged two years; and Olney T. The latter was seventeen years old when he went to Shortsville to learn the machinist's trade; he also followed pattern-making, and has been employed in various places. In Oil City and West Virginia he was engaged in the oil business. He is a Democrat. He and his family are members of the Presbyterian Church in Canandaigua, and he is a Mason of Canandaigua Lodge No. 294. He married in 1860 Catherine, daughter of John P. and Elizabeth (Nagles) Scherrer, and they have had three children: Alburtus Leander, who lives on the homestead with his father; Charles Eugene, who conducts a jewelry store in Victor; and Z. Sherman, who was drowned in a pond in Canandaigua in his fifth year. In 1867 Mr. Padelford established a tile manufactory in Canandaigua, which he conducted three years, and in 1870 returned to the old homestead farm, where he has ever since lived.

Olney married Catherine SCHERRER on 21 May 1860. Catherine (daughter of John P. SCHERRER and Elizabeth NAGLES) was born in Jan 1839 in France; died in 1916 in Canandaigua, Ontario County, New York; was buried in Sand Hill Cemetery, Canandaigua, Ontario County, New York.
