Biographical History
Oliver Goldsmith was born in Salem, Massachusetts, on February 21st, 1827. At sixteen years of age Mr. Goldsmith moved to New York City. In 1847 he concluded to travel west. He moved to Detroit with Colonel Isaac S. Miller, working in the manufacturing of tobacco until the winter of 1848. It was then that he purchased a share in a joint stock company, the "Wolverine Rangers", and with a party from Marshall, Michigan started for California. He would later author a book about the period of his life from 1848 to 1852, which offers a historical review of his pioneer adventures. In 1852 Mr. Goldsmith returned to Detroit and engaged in the manufacture of cigars. In 1876 he established the "Detroit Copper and Brass Rolling Mills."
