"Much can happen in five generations. Louis Madison, age 10, arrived penniless in the United States in 1903. 27 years later he created Madison's, one of the finest women's clothing stores in Central, Ohio. It was taken for granted that his sone David would succeed him and continue the effort. Not so. David made a name for himself, not in the women's clothing business, but as Mayor of Bexley, Ohio. For 32 years the City of Bexley and the name Madison were forever linked together. The surname of Madison lives on with David's sons Andy and Tim and their sons. It also lives on with his great granddaughter's first name: MADISON." -- back cover
