Francis Townsend

Francis Everett Townsend (; January 13, 1867 – September 1, 1960) was an American physician who was best known for his revolving old-age pension proposal during the Great Depression. Known as the "Townsend Plan", this proposal influenced the establishment of the Roosevelt administration's Social Security system. He was born just outside of Fairbury, Illinois, where he is memorialized by a post office named in his honor.
==Biography==
Francis Everett Townsend was born the second of six children on January 13, 1867 in Fairbury, Illinois. After Townsend contracted swamp malaria as an infant, the Townsend family moved to Nebraska where Townsend had two years of high school education.〔 In 1898, Townsend borrowed $1,000 from his father and moved to Southern California to develop a hay farming business.〔 The business was not successful and Townsend enrolled in Omaha Medical College when he was 31.〔 After graduating, Townsend worked in the medical field in Belle Fourche, South Dakota and met a nurse and his future wife, Wilhelmina "Minnie" Bogue.〔 At age 50, Townsend enlisted as a doctor in the army one year before the end of World War I.〔
After the war ended in 1918, Townsend moved to Long Beach, California to run a dry ice factory.〔 After that business quickly failed, Townsend worked for real estate agent Robert Earl Clements in Midway City, California.〔 Clements later masterminded the Townsend Plan.〔 In 1930, at the start of the Great Depression, Townsend became a Long Beach city public health officer at age 63, but lost his job three years later.〔
