Fred Roy, an enterprising and successful young agriculturist of Madison county, owns and operates a farm of eighty acres on section 17, Lincoln township, which has remained his home from his birth to the present time. He was born on the 11th of September, 1883, a son of John L. Roy and a grandson of Thomas Roy. More extended mention of the family is made on another page of this work. At the time of his father's death, Fred Roy succeeded to the ownership of eighty acres of the home farm and has since been busily engaged in the further cultivation of the tract, annually gathering good harvests which find a ready sale on the market.

On the 8th of September, 1912, Mr. Roy was united in marriage to Miss Manda Huffman, her father being George Huffman, of Webster township, this county. General agricultural pursuits claim his attention and reward his industry and m the community where his entire life has been spent he is well known as a representative, substantial and esteemed citizen.
