His eight children all grew to maturity,and of these the father of our subject was the fourth in order of birth.
Benjamin A. Welch was five years of age when his parents located in Delaware County, and there he grew to manhood and studied medicine under his father, although he did general labor work until thirty-five years of age. In November 1848, he came to Van Wert county and settled in Liberty township, where he practiced the botanic system of medicine until his death, november 18,1892--
having been remarkably successful in his practice, which success was attributed to his profound knowledge of the virtues of roots and herbs. He had married, in Delaware county, Miss Electa Adams, who was born in New York, January 8,1808, and to this union were born eight children,viz: Isreal S., Charles,Dennis,(our subject), and five now deceased-- Louisa, Sabrina K., Naomia, an infant unnamed, and Stauton S. The mother of this family, died in 1891, a member of the baptist church, of which her husband was also a member. Dr. Welch in politics, was a whig, and once served as coroner of Van Wert county; he was also a patriot, and enlisted in September, 1861, in company A.Forty-sixth Ohio Volunteer infantry, for three years, but in 1862 was taken sick and was sent home. on his recovery, however, he enlisted in company M, Second heavy artillery, and was detailed as acting surgeon until the close of the war, and at his death was drawing a pension of $16.00 per month.

On his return to Van Wert he was employed as a railroad section hand for four years, then as a section foreman four years on the Pittsburg, Fort wayne & Chicago road, and then watchman of the same tracks for about two years; he was then located in the city as pumper and wood-piler, and two months later was made day baggage-master, a position he held six years; in 1878 he was appointed night baggage-master and ticket agaent and general assistant--his present position.
