William H. Wyeth, descendant of an old New England family, was born in Jefferson county, New York in 1826, and came to Lewis county in 1832.

In 1890 he purchased the old homestead known as Fairlawn Stock Farm, which is pleasantly located in the village of Denmark on the old state road, affording a fine view of the Black River Valley. He has since then devoted his attention to farming and dealing in cattle, making a specialty of raising thoroughbred registered Holstein, Oxforddown, Leicester, Cotswold and Swampshire thoroughbred sheep, Bark Rock hnes, the celebrated Toulouse geese and thoroughbred bronze turkeys.
Mr. Wyeth is an enterprising and progressive farmer and makes use of all the improved farmning machinery, including a portable engine, with which he saws his lumber and wood, makes shingles and in various ways saves labor in the work of the farm. The success of his farm is seen in the large amount of stock supported by the farm.
