Additional Information: | Herbert Watson Gallup was born in the Town of Milford and raised on the farm of his parents, Clarence E. and Jessie L. Gallup. Herbert Gallup became president of the Milford Creamery Association, which owned and operated the Riverside Cheese Factory at the settlement of Milford by 1899. The company sold the factory in 1901, which Gallup purchased personally in 1909. The factory became known as the Milford Creamery at that time. However, Gallup sold the creamery in 1910, after which it soon closed. In 1922, Gallup constructed a house in the Town of Milford at N7396 County Road Q. |
