The Warrensburgh News, Warrensburgh, NY; Thursday, January 19, 1911
Rowland Case Kellogg, county judge and surrogate of Essex county, died Sunday night at his home in Elizabethtown, after an illness of several weeks, aged sixty-seven years. Judge Kellogg had a distinguished record as a soldier, politician and good citizen. He was a son of ex-Congressman Kellogg, a member of the house of representatives during the administration of President Lincoln, of whom he was a personal friend.
In his college days, Case Kellogg quit his studies and enlisted as a private in Company F, One Hundred and Eighteenth regiment, N. Y. Vols., which was recruited in Elizabethtown. He rose rapidly from the ranks and attained the promotion of major at the close of the Civil War. He then studied law, was admitted to practice and served Essex county as district attorney for several years. He also represented this district in the state senate for two terms. He was serving his third term as county judge and surrogate of Essex county when death removed him in the midst of a busy life of usefulness.
Judge Kellogg’s first wife was a daughter of Capt. A. H. C. Livingstone, of Elizabethtown, by whom he had one son, James Kellogg, who is a lawyer in New York city. Judge Kellogg’s second wife was Miss Mary Richards, of Warrensburgh, daughter of Col. Samuel T. Richards, who survives together with two brothers, William Kellogg, an attorney at Westport, and Orlando Kellogg, one
of the proprietors of the Windsor hotel, Elizabethtown; also two sisters, Mrs. Boynton, of Keeseville, and Mrs. Livingstone, of Elizabethtown. The funeral was held yesterday afternoon and was largely attended.
Judge Kellogg, who has many veteran comrades in Warren county as well as a large circle of acquaintances, was identified with all that was best in his own town and county.
He was a vestryman and trustee of the Church of the Good Shepherd, at Elizabethtown, a member of the Masonic order and was active in G. A. R. post matters. His record in public life was distinguished by sterling integrity and
honesty of purpose.
