[Bourbon County]  [Millersburg Precinct]

EDWIN P. GAMBLE, farmer and stock breeder; P. O. Millersburg; was born Dec.
28, 1852, in Cincinnati, to James and Elizabeth (Norris) Gamble, both of
whom were of Irish descent; his parental ancestry were of the nobility of
Scotland, originating from Lord Eglinton, of Ayrshire. They left Scotland
for conscience sake, when James the Sixth by fraud, craft and corruption,
thrust prelacy upon the church of Scotland.  The family was not, like many
others, induced to return, by false promises of King Charles, but remained
in Ireland.  Josias Gamble is the first of whom any record is known; his
eldest son was David Gamble, of Graan, near Inniskillen, born in 1682; his
successor (or second son) was David, of Ratonaugh, Ireland; his eldest son
was George, of Graan, near Inniskillen, born in 1772, came to America
with his family about 1819; his eldest son was James, the father of our
subject, born in 1803 in Graan, Ireland; came to this country with his
father, landing in Cincinnati in November of that year, 1819; he is now
of the firm of Proctor & Gamble, extensive manufacturers of that city.
Edwin P. is his seventh son; he received a liberal education at Kenyon
College, Gambier, Ohio; and at Cornell University, subsequently
engaging in agricultural pursuits and the breeding of blooded stock, such
as short horn cattle, of the most popular strains, Cotswold sheep, and
Poland-China hogs.  He came to Bourbon County in the Spring of 1876,
purchasing the beautiful home, Sunning Hill Farm, where he now resides,
taking possession of the same Jan 1, 1877.  He was married April 22, 1880,
to Miss Lilly Lawder, daughter of Launcelot Lawder, a resident in the
neighborhood of Westwood, a suburban village of Cincinnati; his is also
a native of Ireland.  Mr. Gamble is a young man of refinement, culture,
possessing Christian graces, and with his estimable wife, connected with
the Methodist Church, at Paris.  He is one of the few Republicans of
Bourbon County, voting with that party from a conscientious motive.
