He d. 11 May 1842, in Ann Arbor, Mich.; she d. 14 Oct. 1844.

He was a farmer and merchant. At the age of 14 he rem. to Galway, Saratoga Co., N. Y., where his father had settled as a pioneer seven years before. Two years after his marriage, with an outfit of little more than willing hands and stout heart, he and his wife, with their eldest son, then an infant, sought a new home in Central New York. Their conveyance was a sled, drawn by oxen; their road was through the forest, and after a fatiguing journey of fifteen days, they arrived at their first home in Marcellus. They erected a log cabin, made a clearing in the forest, remained one year, then sold their improvements and purchased a second home in what is now Owasco. After remaining there two years they again sold out, and in the autumn of 1799 rem. to their third forest farm, in Sempronius (now Niles), where they resided forty years. Their circumstances were improved by each removal, and before the new farm was fully cleared, Mr. Kellogg added trading to farming. In 1808 he was elected to the State Assembly, and received a re-election in the following year. He was a Judge of the County Court. In 1812 the village post office was established and he was the first postmaster, and his own name was given to the office, and the village since then has been called Kelloggsville. In 1821 and '22 he was elected a member of the State Assembly again. In 1825 he was elected Representative to Congress, the first Congress under John Quincy Adams' administration. Returning from Congress, he remained in Kelloggsville ten years, until he rem. to Ann Arbor, Mich., where four of his children were living. Of their family of eleven children, all met 29 Sept. 1857, in Auburn, N. Y. He was a vestryman of the Episcopal Church in Ann Arbor, a man of sound judgment and sterling integrity.
