And the year of 1873 he came to the state of Michigan plying his trade in the lumber woods. And as time went on entered into all phase of lumber industry and finally ran his own camps. In the year of 1882 he met and wed Sarah Richardson, the couple making their home in Rolland township, clearing the land and enduring all the privations and hardships mixed with the joys which confronted pioneer families. 13 children were born to Archie and Sarah, seven boys and six girls, all of whom survive, except Charles who passed away in the year of 1931, although the children grew up and scattered to make their own homes. Archie and Sarah have always resided in this locality with the exception of a few years spent in the state of Oregon. On April 10, 1933 Mother Foster passed away a loss to which Archie could never become accustomed. Although he was in ill health during his declining years he refused to leave, except for a short period, the home which contained so many memories of a long life well spent."
