". . . Bertrand M. O'Brien, the son of John O. and Rachel (Anderson) O'Brien, was born in Putnam county, Indiana, October 5, 1880. His father was born in county Tipperary, Ireland, in May, 1819, and was the son of James O'Brien. At the age of twenty-one John O'Brien came to America and for the first four or five years worked on the steamboats on the Mississippi river. He then came to Greencastle, where he worked for three years and then moved to Hamrick Station, bought land and followed the occupation of a farmer for the remainder of his life. His wife was a native of Putnam county, this state, and a woman of great strength of character. John O'Brien became a prominent citizen of Hamrick Station and vicinity and as an indication of the esteem in which he was held by his fellow citizens it may be noted that he was elected as township trustee on two different occasions, and served with fidelity and efficiency throughout his whole term of office. He was a member of the Catholic church, while his wife adhered to the Christian church. His death occurred February 6, 1905, and his widow is still living in New Winchester, Hendricks County."
