  • Notes 
    • From the, Clinton, IL, Observer, 10 Feb 1982. Sherman is a descendant of one
      of the oldest pioneer families of DeWitt Co., IL, and is now actively engaged
      in the manufacture of brick, tile, cement, etc. His plant is located at Farmer
      City, IL, one of the most important industries here. He was born about one and
      one half miles northwest of Farmer City. An older brother, Amos L. Arbogast
      learned the trade, and with another younger brother, all three worked together.
