Biography:
Tacitus P. Zander. We have here a brief sketch of a prominent attorney-at-law, who is residing at Unionville, and is the son of A.P. and Lucinda (Hutchinson) Zander, who were natives of Troy, N.Y., and Brockville, Canada, respectively. His grandfather Hutchinson was also born in Canada, and was one of the Hutchinson family of Connecticut and of English descent. A.P. Zander removed to Wisconsin about the year 1844, engaging there in the carpenter's and joiner's trade in Milwaukee, and was married February 14, 1846. He was born February 26, 1822., and his wife October 15, 1827. Of their seven children five are still living.
The brothers and sisters of our subject are as follows: O.M. Zander who was born October 7, 1848, and is an architect by profession. He married Mary T. Beach, and resides at Omaha, Neb. Florence T. was born on Christmas Day, 1856, and married Charles Andrews, of Columbia Township, Tuscola County; Frances E., who was born February 1, 1859, and married A. Phelps, of Columbia Township, and Gertrude O., who was born October 12, 1868, is unmarried and resides at Elgin, Ill. The father served in Company K, Thirty-first Wisconsin Infantry, and was in the army for three years. He engaged in all of the conflicts experienced by the Army of the Cumberland. He was a resident of Ellington at the time of his death, April 19, 1891; his good wife had been called from his side by death in 1882.
The subject of this sketch was born October 3, 1853, at Ottawa, Ill., and was reared upon a farm until he reached the age of ten, when the family removed to Prairie du Chien. In his boyhood he attended the district schools and took a High School education, studying there until he reached the age of nineteen, when the family removed to Tuscola County. He then attended Cook County Normal School at Chicago, from which he was graduated at the age of twenty after which he engaged in teaching for eight years, three years at Madison and four years in South Chicago, and was invited to return for the fifth year but declined.
The young man in 1882 entered the law office of Black & Quinn, at Caro, Mich., and there read law, and was admitted to the bar May 31, 1883. He then located at Cass City for a year and at the end of that time was elected Circuit Court Commissioner and removed to Caro. He was re-elected in 1886 and 1888 but by a combination of the Patrons of Industry with the Democrats he was defeated. At Unionville, to which he removed in April, 1891, he established himself in a very lucrative practice. He is a stalwart Republican and ha taken great interest in politics and has aided the party with his pen during campaigns.
Mr. Zander was happily married August 24, 1879, to Addie E., daughter of James and Lois (Thompson) Brooker, natives of Canada. This union has been blessed by the birth of four children, namely: J.
