Born in Johnsburg, New York, he moved with his family to Ellington,Wisconsin in 1855. His first poems were published in the New York Ledgerwhen Rexford was 14. Among the many songs he wrote, Rexford is bestremembered for the lyrics to Silver Threads Among the Gold which were setto music by Hart Pease Danks. This song was one of the first items to berecorded mechanically. Another poem which has had continuing popularity isThe Ride of Paul Venarez, which is considered to be a cowboy poem, eventhough the author was from Wisconsin. It has been turned into a song,Billy Venero, and has a colorful history.[1]

Rexford was a prolific writer. Most of his books were about gardening. Inaddition, he wrote many poems and stories. He worked with the Ladies' HomeJournal for 14 years. After leaving that magazine, he wrote for AmericanHomes and Gardens, House and Gardens, and American Home Monthly.[2] Hisarticles also appeared frequently in Lippincot's and Outing. Rexford'sfiction was published stories by Beadle and Adams and other periodicalpublishers. He was a member of the Chicago Press Club and the Authors Clubof Boston.[3] For more than 20 years he served as organist at theCongregational Church of Shiocton, WI. Following many years as Town Clerkat Bovina, he died in Green Bay and was buried at Bovina Cemetery.

Eben E. Rexford received an honorary doctorate from his alma mater,Lawrence University ,[4] in 1908, and he was inducted into the SongwritersHall of Fame in 1970.
