Medina County Biographical Sketches: C.B. Chamberlain(lin), manufacturer of
cheese, Medina; was born on his father's farm, in Franklin County, Vermont,
April 21, 1820, and lived at home until 1847, assisting on the farm and
attending school. May 11, 1845, he married Miss Nancy Shattuck, a native of
Windsor County Vermont. About his 22nd year, Mr. Chamberlain became the
manager of his father's business, the latter being his property, to take
effect at his death. In 1847 the business was sold and Mr. and Mrs.
Chamberlain with his father and mother came to Ohio and occupied a log cabin
on the farm that they had bought in Montville Township, Medina County. They
began clearing the land and built a frame house, barn, and cheese house; he
also started a dairy with 100 cows. In 1866, he came to his farm adjoining
Medina, and lived there about four years. He then moved to his present
residence in the Corporation, where he has since lived. During his residence
in this county, Mr. Chamberlain has been engaged in farming, dairying, and
the manufacturing of cheese, at present owning four factories in the county.
Mr. Chamberlain's parents, Moses M. and Lucy (Kendall) Chamberlain, were
natives of Vermont. They died in Montville Township and were buried in
Medina.
