Charles A. Salter, D. D. S., who has been successfully practicing the profession of dentistry in Pittsville for the last 13 years, was born in Chilton, Calumet County, Wis., Sept. 25, 1883, son of William and Sarah (Nicholson) Salter. The father was a native of Ireland who came to America when 12 years old. After attaining manhood he was married to Sarah Nicholson at Dundas, Ontario, Canada, and they later settled in Chilton, Wis. Both are now deceased. Charles A. Salter was educated in Wis., attending school at Chilton and later at Fond du Lac, being graduated in 1900. Later he began the study of dentistry in Marquette University, at Milwaukee, where he received the degree of D. D. S. in 1909. In July that year he came to Pittsville and opened an office in the old Dr. Wood building, where he has since practiced his profession with good success and won the reputation of being an able and reliable dentist. He is a stockholder in the Pittsville State Bank and in the Brown Bros. Construction Co. As a public spirited citizen he served six years on the city council, being first elected in 1911, and he is a member of the local school board, on which also he has served six years. His fraternal affiliations are with the Odd Fellows and Woodmen of the World, and he is connected by membership with the Episcopal Church. Dr. Salter was married at Chilton, Wis., Nov. 17, 1912, to Bertha Betka, daughter of Lewis and Gottlieba (Swatzky) Betka, her parents being now deceased. Dr. and Mrs. Salter have one child, Bonita May, who was born Dec. 13, 1914.
