"Christie, Donald, a native of Scotland, came to this country in 1802, settling with his family in the town of Mayfield. The family afterward became scattered, three of the sons and all the girls locating in Livingston county. John, the oldest child, remained on the home farm, and on him devolved the care of the property. He first married a Miss McKinley, by whom he had one child. His second wife was Janette Robertson, who bore him five children: Mary, Lucy, Janette, Sarah and John, jr. John Christie, jr., was born in Mayfield Oct. 20, 1824. His young life was spent on the farm, but later on he built a tannery in Mayfield, which he conducted some years, but with indifferent success. In 1864 he came to Gloversville and became connected with the glove industry, but not as proprietor. Mr. Christie married Mary Ann Vrooman, Jan. 20, 1848, and had seven children. In 1890 and 1891 Mr. Christie represented his district in the State Legislature."
