    F. P. FORD, photographer, is a native of New York State, and when a youth came with his parents to Adrian, Mich.  His first business experience was in a printing office, where he was engaged for some years in the job and press work department, in which he became proficient.  In 1862, he began learning his present art, continuing in Adrian until 1868, when he came to Kendallville, located, and has been in successful operation ever since.  Mr. Ford is anxious to excel in his art, and has been a constant student of all of the many improvements in photography; that he has succeeded, his superior work attests.  His work bears the reputation of the best in Northern Indiana, which, coupled with reasonable charges, renders his trde xtended.  He was united in marriage, in 1869, with Mis Emma E. Allsbaugh, of Adrian, Mich.
