MICHAEL C. RUSSELL, merchant, Edwardsville, is one of the leading business men of this locality, having been engaged in the mercantile business here for over fourteen years. Previous to this time he was engaged at railroading as locomotive engineer. Mr. Russell was born in the parish of Rhine, County Clare, Ireland, and is a son of Timothy and Mary (Malloney) Russell, who were both natives of Ireland. When he was a little over twelve years of age his parents emigrated to America, settling in Kingston, Pa.., in which locality he has principally remained ever since. Mr. Russell was married, December 19, 1863, to Miss Elizabeth daughter of Thomas Keating, of Plymouth, Pa.; Mr. Keating was one of the first settlers in Plymouth township. The fruits of this happy union are nine children, viz.: Elizabeth, married to John H. Ryan, of Edwardsville; John J, married to Julia Vahey, of Edwardsville; Thomas F.; Mary Ann; Michael C., Jr.; Joseph; Agnes, Matthew, and Paul. Mr. Russell and his family are members of the Catholic Church. His political principles are Democratic, and he has been borough councilman for three years
