Charles W. Endicott (October 28, 1822 – August 19, 1899) was an American attorney and politician who served as Auditor and Treasurer of Massachusetts.

Early life

Endicott was born in Canton, Massachusetts to Elijah Endicott and Cynthia (Childs) Endicott, and attended the local schools.[1]

Endicott served in that town as a town clerk, member of the school committee, and representative to both the state house and the state senate.[1]

State treasurer

In November 1875 Endicott was elected state treasurer[2] for a term beginning in January 1876.

Endicott retired from the treasurer's office after his fifth term. Endicott had served five consecutive one year terms as treasurer and he was barred by term limits from running for re-election.[3]

Endicott died after fainting in his home, with heatstroke being identified as a possible cause. At the time of his death, he was thought to be in good health.[1]
