Excerpts from short autobiography by Edward H. Wallace dated 4 May 1920:

"Born in a log house on a rented farm, near Ponsonby, P.O., Pilkington Tp., Wellington Co., Ontario, Canada, April 16, 1872. Children preceding, Maud, now wife of Dr. H. H. Healy, Grand Forks, North Dakota; William Havelock, executive secretary Y.M.C.A., Los Angeles. Following, Ernest Hazlewood, Attorney, New Orleans, Lewis Herbert, President First National Bank, Newport Beach, California; Charles Horace, Cashier same bank at time of death, February, 1914. In 1879 family removed to Elora [Wellington Tp, Wellington Co., Ontario, Canada], five miles distant. November 1880 to Lincoln, Nebraska residing on a farm ten miles distant until February , 1881 when removed to Drayton, North Dakota, the family exchequer consisting of $2.40. Father filed on pre-emption one mile from town to which family removed in April and mother died the next month. Three years later father returned to Canada and married Mary Larter, mother's particular friend. To this union came Gertrude, who died at the age of two years Ella Irene, in 1887 and Maxwell Raymond, 1890.

"The railroad came to Drayton in 1887. In September, 1887 went with older brother [William H. Wallace] to Hamline University, St. Paul [Minnesota], where brother had been a short time the previous year. In December father sold his land and other property at Drayton to go to Pasadena, California and go into business with his brothers Albert and Frank who had preceded him. Will and Ed joined the party in Minneapolis. Father, after arriving, decided otherwise, bought other farms at Drayton and returned in March, 1888. Will and Ed helped with the farm work and returned to Hamline in the fall. Thus they continued until they finished the preparatory course, Ed working for the Nebraska Telephone Company in Lincoln, Nebraska, for fifteen months. Both returned to Hamline and were graduated together in 1895. Both worked hard throughout the course supplementing the assistance their father could give them. The summer of [18]93 Will was conductor on street-car line in St. Paul and Ed sold papers and collected and distributed laundry at the race-track of the State Fair Grounds. In December 1895 Ed took an office position with the Amenia and Sharon Land Co. at Amenia, North Dakota, setting about diligently to learn the grain business. In 1898 he enlisted in the North Dakota regiment for Philippine service but was disqualified because of physical defect and returned to his work at Amenia. That summer he went to Prescott, Wisconsin to ask Eleanor Dill to marry him. When they were in college together he thought he loved her but went out to get started in business and learn for sure. When they found that love was mutual, things took the usual course. They became engaged July 28th and were married the following July 27th. Eleanor's Uncle, M. T. Dill, had grown old in the grain business at Prescott and, to be relieved of some of the burden, invited Wallace to join with him and two of his old-time Employees in the M. T. Dill Grain Company. This partnership was effected August 1, 1900 and continued for eight years. Here four children were born to the couple-Jean, July 10, 1900;' John Donald, July 8, 1903; Marjorie, March 23, 1905 and William Dill January 5, 1907...

"To Long Beach, California the family removed in July, 1908 where he took a position in the Exchange National Bank which had been organized by his brother Will. He was soon made Assistant Cashier and Director. From this position he went to the Marine Commercial and Savings Bank as Vice President in January, 1916. This bank was then about two years old, had deposits of $300,000, and was paying no dividends. Now it has deposits of two and a half millions, is paying ten percent and earning much more.

"Another child, Eleanor Thompson, was born into this family January 16, 1914."

Edith & I left that evening for San Francisco on our wedding trip and attended State YMCA Convention there, took in various sights, took steamboat to Sacramento, and Phe Larter had wedding breakfast ready for us upon our arrival home. Many changes have taken place in those short years.

Announcement published in a local [Anaheim?] paper:
Mrs. Helen Lind Poapst, informally announces the marriage of her daughter Edith to William Haveloch [sic] Wallace, on Saturday, March 18, at four o'clock, at Long Beach, Cal.
Owing to the recent severe illness of the bride's mother, the ceremony was quietly performed at the parsonage of the First M.E. church, Dr. H. I. Rasmus officiting, and only Miss Theodora Jayne of Anaheim and James Springer of Los Angeles being attendants.
Mr. and Mrs. Wallace went immediately to Los Angeles by automobile, and at 8 p.m. left on The Lark for San Francisco and other northern points of interest. On return they will be at home after May first at 1431 Linden Ave., Long Beach. No cards.
Miss Poapst is a sister of Mrs. J. L. Beebe and is well known in Anaheim, having made her home with Dr. and Mrs. Beebe previous to going to Long Beach. She has a host of friends in this city and vicinity, where she has been admired for her unusual beauty and cleverness and loved for the rare grace and charm of her personality.
Mr. Wallace, who is a nephew of Lieutenant-Governor Albert J. Wallace, is a prominent citizen and banker of Long Beach. He is known and resppected throughout California, not only as a successful man of affairs, but particularly for his earnest and efficient work in the Y.M.C.A., of which organization he is state treasurer.
Wherever they are known, friends and acquaintances of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace will rejoice at the union of two such useful and beautiful lives, while they wish them all the happiness they so well deserve.
