Cutler, Jefferson county, p. 12 bio sketch TERRY CRITCHFIELD, banker, is a native of Indiana, and was born in Harrison county, February 21, 1834. Came to Illinois with his parents when comparatively young, where he was educated and reared. In April, 1855, came to Kansas, and turned his attention to buying real esate, operating principally in Jefferson, Franklin and Leavenworth counties. The troubles were then at their height, and Mr. C. being an outspoken Free-state man, had his share of them. One one occasion he was coming up the Missouri on a steamboat that was loaded with passengers, and a vote was taken to see how the crowd stood on the goose question, so to speak. It was ascertained that there was one Free-soil vote cast. Another vote was taken and the same solitary vote came to the front. It was soon ascertained that Mr. Crutchfield was the man that cast the vote, and revolvers were flourished and threats made, and they made it very uncomfortable for him all the way up, so much so, in fact, he did not expect to reach the shore alive. When the steamer reached Leavenworth, he discovered that quite a number of the passengers were Free-state men, or professed to be at least,and some of them had taken a small part in persecuting him. In 1859, he located permanently in Oskaloosa, the county seat of Jefferson County, attending to his real estate affairs and other business. In 1865, he embarked in merchandising, in which he is still interested. In 1871, he was elected to the Legislature by the Republican party, and re-elected in 1875 by the Democratic party. He had always been a Republican until 1872, when he voted for Horace Greeley, this was the turning point. Mr. C. has also held several county offices, to which he was re-elected in former years. Has also been Justice of the Peace and other township offices. There are but a few among the old settlers better known. In September, 1880, he engaged in the banking business.
