Notes - Sairs, C. A., was born near Ogdensburg, St. Lawrence county, September 24, 1837. At twelve years of age he was working on a farm, but soon went into a shingle mill. At sixteen years of age he went sailing and followed the lakes for sixteen years, most of which time he held a mate's certificate and finally obtained captain's papers.
