He is a descendant of a family of which five brothers were Revolutionary soldiers, who were in winter quarters at Valley Forge. The father, who was a native of Pennsylvania, was the son of Michael Ruby, also a native of the Keystone State, and of French descent.

M. G. was reared in Pennsylvania, and received a classical education at the Franklin and Marshall College at Lancaster, PA. He also studied law in Pennsylvania, and removed to Missouri in the fall of 1853, settling in Howard County, but later went to Platte County. His first pursuit, after his arrival in Missouri, was school teaching, which he followed for a short time. He then entered the profession of law, locating in Gentry County. He practiced his profession until the war, when he entered the drug business, which he followed for several years. In 1854 he was united in marriage with Amelia F. Leebrick, daughter of John N. Leebrick; they have three sons. His aspirations are not for public life, but he prefers the life of a retired citizen, and now resides in Rochester, Andrew County, MO. He is a Master Mason. In politics he was a Democrat before the war, but since has been a Republican.
