GARVIN, EDGAR G.,  the enterprising druggist of Richford, was a native 
of Enosburgh, and was born at that place April 6, 1846.  His father, Samuel 
S. Garvin, was a minister of the Second Advent church, and his mother was 
Betsey (Stetson) Garvin, and of their three children he was the eldest.  The 
father had charge of several Advent churches in this locality.  Some nine or 
ten years ago he removed to Fort Worth, Texas, with part of his family, 
where he still resides.  When old enough Edgar G. Garvin began work at 
mechanical employments, and later became clerk, serving as such in various 
localities in Franklin, Chittenden, and Caledonia counties.  In 1885, he 
established a drug store in Richford.  He married Sarah A., daughter by 
adoption of Lorenzo and Mary (Carpenter) Corliss, and to them have been 
born three children.  In politics Mr. Garvin is a Republican.  He has never 
held or asked for political office.
