Benjamin dansard, sr. One of the honored pioneers of Monroe county who long wielded a distinctive influence in connection with busi ness and civic activities in this favored section of the state was the late Benjamin Dansard, Sr., who settled in the city of Monroe in 1836, the year prior to the admission of Michigan as one of the sovereign states of the Union, and who here continued to reside until his death, more than half a century later. He was the founder of the banking house which still perpetuates his name and was recognized as a man of fine business ability, the while his urbane and kindly personality gained for him the confidence and high regard of all with whom he came in contact. He did much to foster industrial and civic development and progress in Monroe county, was a man of signal refinement and culture, and left an indelible impress upon the community in which he long maintained his home and in which his memory is held in enduring memory.
Benjamin Dansard was born in Issoudun, France, September 12, 1813, and was thus seventy-five years of age at the time of his death, January 27, 1888. In his native land he was afforded the best of educa tional advantages, as it was the desire of his father that he should enter the priesthood of the Catholic church. Upon attaining to maturity, how ever, he decided that his tastes and predilections lay along other lines than those of an ecclesiastical order, and he was a young man when he came to America to win for himself a place of independence in connection with business activities. In 1836, when about twenty-four years of age, Mr. Dansard came to Monroe, and here he was engaged in the dry goods business for a number of years. In the early days he gave instruction in the French language to a number of classes, as he was a man of fine scholarship and especially well qualified for teaching in his native tongue. It may be noted that his first pupil was Dr. Osgood, who at tained to wide fame in the west through the introduction of Osgood 's Cholagogue, a remedy designed as a specific for all the prevalent fever and ague.
