Asa Grant, his mother's brother, took charge of her children, adopted and educated them, and upon his death left them his propei'ty. They attended the dis- trict school, and at a maturer age were sent to academi- cal institutions. Mr. Waterbury, after several terms at the Delaware Literary Institute and the Delhi and Fergusonville Academies, finally graduated at the Normal School in 1848. He then spent some time in teaching, after which he entered Union College, graduating with honor in 1 854, ...and was elected a member of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Turning his attention to legal pursuits he en- tered the Poughkeepsie Law School, and after graduat- ing was admitted to the bar, and commenced practice in the city of New York. In 1857, after the death of his uncle, Colonel Grant, he returned to Delaware county, where he has since been engaged in legal and agricultural pursuits. Mr. Waterbury was nominated for the Assembly by the Republican party in 1860, and was elected. He served on the Judiciary Committee during the session of the Legislature that followed.
