Perry Twp. -
PHILLIP IGNATIUS. This noted Indian
was also an acquaintance of Mr. Cory. He, with
another wild and savage-looking Indian, are the same who are
referred to in the statement of Hugh Carr and Thomas
Newman as having visited the cabins of Mr. Bryan and
Mr. Collyer on their route from the Huron River country
to Tuscarawas County. He has often listened to the
description by Phillip of the fight on the Black Fork.

Mohican Twp. -
EDMUND INGMAND,
when in the eleventh year, removed with his father to Mohican
Township. This, as before remarked, was in the year 1816.
Until about 1818 the 280 acres upon which he now resides was a
part of the four sections (7, 8, 17, and 18) which formed the
"Indian Reservation." During that year the Federal
government purchased the Indian title, and in 1821 the lands
were offered in tracts of quarter sections at the Wooster land
office, pursuant to public notice; but as the quarter embraced
in this tract was regarded as too wet for tillage no purchasers
appeared. This land is now regarded as equal in fertility
to any in the township. The original purchase, which
constitutes his present farm, was entered by Edward Arnold
in 1821 or 1822, but a short time after it had been offered by
the government. Judge Ingmand became the owner of
it in 1834, and the additions since made amount altogether to
280 acres.
