Frederick B. Wolcott, who was for many years proprietor of Wolcott's Mill, one of the oldest landmarks of the Ray Center vicinity. The Wolcotts moved to Macomb County from Nebraska 54 years ago. Mr. Wolcott operated the mill from that time up to the time of his death 10 years ago. His sons now run the mill.
Fred Wolcott was born in Bradford County, Pennsylvania in 1845, the son of J.P. and Rebecca Rogers Wolcott.[3] He worked in a sawmill in Pennsylvania, then moved west to Wisconsin in 1865. He moved from there to Nebraska, then Wyoming, Utah, and California in succession, before returning to Nebraska where his father had subsequently settled, in 1869. There he homesteaded a tract of land, and in 1870 married Miss Anna C. Callahan.[3] The couple had twelve children: A. E., John P., Fred H., William H., Frank O., Lewis J., Rebecca, Ida May, Anna, Rosa M., Mary, and Lillie.
