ELMER
F. PARTEE. This well known and highly respected farmer of Tiffin
township is one of Defiance county's native sons, and is a
representative of one of her most prominent and honored
families, whose identification with her history dates from
the earliest settlement of the county, his paternal
grandfather, Enos Partee, locating here Dec. 24,
1825. He came from Highland county, Ohio, and his was of the
second white family to take up their residence in Tiffin
township, with whose development and prosperity its members
have since been identified.
William E. Partee, our subject's father, was
born in Highland county, Jan. 23, 1821, and was therefore
only four years old when brought by his parents to Defiance
county, where he grew to manhood amid pioneer scenes, aiding
in the arduous task of transforming the wild land into
productive and highly cultivated fields. On December 11,
1852, he was united in marriage with Miss Sarah
Wissler, a native of Pickaway county, Ohio, and they
began housekeeping upon a farm in Tiffin township, Defiance
county, making it their home until 1882, when they removed
to the city of Defiance. There she died November 7, 1890,
and he passed away Feb. 16, 1894, honored and respected
by all who knew them.
Our subject, who is the only child of this worthy
couple, was born in Tiffin township, November 19, 1856, and
upon the home farm passed the days of his boyhood and youth,
obtaining his education in the local schools. He remained
under the parental roof until he was married, in Hicksville,
Defiance county, Oct. 12, 1882, to Miss Emma
Lehman. She was born in Noble township, same county,
Dec. 8, 1854, a daughter of Christian Lehman,
a native of Germany, whence he came to the New World in
1830. In this country he married Catherine Bahr,
who was also born in Germany, and emigrated to America in
1835. They continued residents of Defiance county until
called from this life, Mrs. Lehman dying in
Noble township, Mar. 26, 1882, and her husband in
Hicksville, June 30, 1891. In their family were twelve
children, Mrs. Partee being tenth in the order
of birth. She was a teacher, and taught school nine terms.
Our subject and his wife have become the parents of two
children: Verna U., born May 1, 1890, died May 10,
1890; and Elma F., born Nov. 7, 1892.
Soon after his marriage, Mr. Partee
located upon the farm in Tiffin township, where he still
continues to live. It is one of the most desirable places in
the community, comprising two hundred and eighty-one acres
of valuable land, which he had improved and placed under
excellent cultivation. His beautiful home is surrounded with
good barns and outbuildings, and the neat and thrifty
appearance of the place well indicates the industry,
perseverance and progressive spirit of the owner. In
connection with farming, Mr. Partee
successfully engaged in teaching school for seven winters.
For three years he held the office of township clerk, and
has always taken a commendable interest in local affairs.
Socially, he affiliates with the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows: in religious faith, both he and his wife are active
and prominent members of the Methodist Episcopal Church: in
politics he gives his influence to the Populist party.

PARMENUS PARTEE. Mr. Partee,
who is a well-known farmer of Tiffin township, Defiance
county, has spent his entire life in northwestern Ohio.
His parents, the late Joseph and Lorinda (Kibble) Partee,
were married and began their domestic life in this section
of the State, making their home for many years in Williams
county, where both died.
To this worthy couple were born eight children - five
sons and three daughters - of whom our subject is the
youngest son and seventh child. He was born in
Williams county, Apr. 2, 1839, and was quite young when his
parents died. In the county of his nativity he
continued to reside until he attained his majority, and then
came to Defiance county, locating upon the farm in Tiffin
township, where has since been his home. It consists
of eighty acres of arable land, which he has placed under a
high state of cultivation, having also erected thereon good
and substantial buildings, besides making many other useful
and valuable improvements.
In Tiffin township, Oct. 9, 1861, Mr. Partee was
united in marriage with Miss Anna Kinsig, who was
born in Switzerland, Aug. 5, 1851, and came to America with
her parents, John and Elizabeth (Myers) Kinsig.
Coming direct to Ohio, the family lived for nine years in
Fairfield, and then removed to Tiffin township, Defiance
county, where the father died Aug. 12, 1893. Mrs.
Partee was the eldest daughter af second child in the
family of seven children - three sons and four daughters.
Mr. and Mrs. Partee have become the parents of seven
children, namely: William F., John W., Mary J. (now
the wife of Ephraim Webb); Celia A. (wife of
Elmer Diehl); Charles H., Rose B., and
Edward B.
Since casting his first vote Mr. Partee has
been a stanch supporter of the Democratic party, but has
never been a politician in the sense of the office seeking,
though he has efficiently filled some school positions.
His private interests claim the greater part of his
attention, and the success that has crowned his efforts as
well deserved.

PHILLIP
PETER.
This venerable
and highly respected resident of Defiance is deserving of
special mention in this volume. Like many of our
successful citizens he is of German birth and ancestry, but
he came to this country in early manhood, and for more than
a half a century he has had his home in Ohio.
Born Feb. 19, 1820, in Germany, he is a son of
Abraham Peter, who in 1840 brought the family to the
United States and settled upon a farm in Seneca county,
Ohio. Here our subject continued to reside until he
reached the age of twenty-four, assisting in the work of the
homestead. He then married, and engaged in farming on
his own account in the same county, continuing about seven
years. In 1849 he removed to Defiance county, locating
upon a farm in Richland township on Dec. 2d of that year.
In 1879 he rented his farm and removed to the village of
Defiance, where he has since resided in a pleasant home at
No. 303 East Second street.
Mr. Peter has been four times married, first
time in Tiffin, Ohio, to Miss Rosina Haiserman, who
died in Seneca county leaving one son, John, now a
farmer in Defiance county. By his second marriage to
Miss Katherina Kirhner, Mr. Peter had a large family
of children, of whom the following are living:
William, Jacob, Frederick, Albert, Adam, Caroline, and
Lizzie. The mother of this family died in
Defiance, and Mr. Peter formed a third matrimonial
union, which wife also died in Defiance county.
Subsequently he was married in that county to Mrs. Maria
Bentz Bahringer, who was born in Germany Aug. 21, 1835,
coming to America when nineteen years old. After
spending two years in New York City she came to Defiance
county, where she was married on Apr. 4, 1856, to her first
husband, Adam Bahringer, who died Apr. 12, 1876,
leaving three sons, Charles, Andrew and Adam.

BARTON SELLERS PETTIT.
This prominent business man of Hicksville, Defiance county,
comes of Revolutionary stock resident many years in
Pennsylvania, but of French birth.
The Pettit genealogy has been carefully
and thoroughly traced to the original family in France, by
one of its lineal descendants, Judge John Pettit, of
the Supreme Bench of Indiana. The first of the
ancestry to come to this country were three sons of this
family, who immigrated here during the Colonial period prior
to the Revolutionary war, and in that struggle served as
soldiers in the Patriot army. After the close of the
war one of the brothers settled in New York, one in
Virginia, and one in Pennsylvania; and each became
progenitor of a numerous posterity. The brother last
mentioned was the forefather of the Defiance county branch
of the family, and the great-grandfather of the subject of
this sketch. His name was John Pettit,
and he resided at or near Lancaster, where he reared a
family.
One of his children, a son named John, removed
in 1798 to Kentucky, but a few years later changed his home
to Miami county, Ohio. This was about 1808 or 1810,
and in18166 he made Miss Elizabeth Dye,
of that place, his wife. She was a young maiden of
English extraction, and possessed the distinction of being
the first white child born in that county. She was
born in 1800. Her father, Benjamin Dye,
was the proprietor of the “Inn” at the trading post, which
has since become the town of Troy, Ohio. Strange,
indeed, must have been the scenes of her childhood days, and
striking- the contrast between the social pastimes and
events of the period of her young ladyhood, and the social
interests of the society leaders of to-day; and if we
picture to ourselves the home life on the farm near Troy -
then in the “far West” - to which John Pettit
took his bride, the eye finds little that is attractive in
that primitive scene; yet we are glad to feel that each and
every age is fraught with its own peculiar pleasures and
enjoyments as with its labors and interests, inasmuch as
happiness comes not by arbitrary rule, and “Hope springs
eternal in the human breast.” The whole of the married
life of this couple was passed on the home farm, the
children came to the home to the number of sixteen - eleven
boys and five girls. The husband and father died there
in 1844, and the widowed mother afterward changed her
residence to a location near Marion, Marion county, where
she passed from earth in 1874.
Benjamin Pettit, a son of John, was born
in 1822, and in 1849 was married to Patsy Morris, a
daughter of Owen Morris, a farmer of Troy. They
made their firt ome near that place, but at the end of two
years located on a farm in Marion county, near the city of
Marion, where their seven children were born, except the
subject of this sketch, who was born near Troy. Mr.
Pettit pursued the vocation of agriculture. In
1866 the family removed to a farm in the vicinity of
Brookston, White county, Indiana, which became their home
during the remainder of the father's life. His death
occurred in 1879. The mother now lives with her
youngest daughter, MR. Emma Ripley, at Hicksville.
The Pettit family for years were communicants of the
Christian Church; Mrs. Benjamin Pettit is a member of
the Baptist Church.
Barton Sellers Pettit, son of Benjamin and
Patsy (Morris) Pettit was born Nov. 17, 1850, and passed
his youth and the earliest years of his manhood in the
parental home, receiving his first literary training in the
common schools of that section, and supplementing it with a
regular course of study at Brookston Academy, from which
institution he was graduated at the age of twenty-three.
During the following year he left home and began to learn
the drug business at Delphi, Indiana, where he remained two
years. In 1879 he purchased the drug store with its
entire stock, situated on the southwest corner of Main and
High streets, Hicksville, where he conducted the business
for five years, when he removed to the northwest corner,
just opposite, and has been located there ever since,
occupying one of the finest business rooms in the city.
In 1885 his brother became associated with him in business,
which is now conducted under the firm name of E. M.
Pettit & Co., and which is probably the most extensive
of the kind in this section.
In 1880 our subject was married at Brookston, Indiana,
to Miss Estella Powell, who died in August of
the following year. In 1884 he was married to his
present wife, formerly Miss Lillie Gorgas, and their
home, an attractive modern residence on the corner of Bryan
and High streets erected in 1893, is brightened by their
three children: Eula A., born June 8, 1888;
Estella M., born Dec. 25, 1889; and Mary Emma,
born Oct. 10, 1893.

CHARLES W. PHILLIPS.
One of the energetic and progressive farmers of Tiffin
township, Defiance county, is the subject of this sketch,
who is a worthy representative of one of the honored pioneer
families of the county.
Israel Phillips, father of our subject, was born
in Shenandoah county, Virginia, July 14, 1814, and in 1837
married Miss Nancy A. Vry, a native of Pennsylvania,
born Nov. 8, 1817. They began their domestic life in
Fairfield county, Ohio, where they made their home for about
six years,coming to Defiance county in 1843, and locating
upon a farm in Washington township. Two years later
they removed to Tiffin township, and in 1852 located upon
the farm in that township, where the father died Nov. 11,
1886. From the wild land he developed a good farm,
erected substantial buildings thereon, and made many
excellent improvements which added to its valuable and
attractive appearance. At the time of his death he
owned two hundred and forty-eight acres of highly cultivated
land.
The subject of this sketch is the youngest in the
family of six children - four sons and two daughters - the
others being as follows: Laura A. is now the
wife of Alonzo Ewers; John C. died in Washington
township, in 1872, at which time he was serving as county
surveyor for Defiance county; George W. is now a
farmer of Montcalm county, Michigan; Elridge G. died
in Washington township, in 1881, at the age of thirty-two
years; James M. served as superintendent of the
County Infirmary of Defiance county for eight years, and is
now a resident of Williams County, Ohio; and Ida is
the wife of David Fasor.
On the farm, where he now
lives, Charles W. Phillips was born July 19, 1860,
and was there reared, obtaining his education in the common
schools of the neighborhood. With the exception of one
year he remained at home with his parents until his
marriage. On Feb. 2, 1882, in Defiance, Ohio he wedded
Miss Jennie Koch, who was born in Noble township,
Defiance county, Sept. 11, 1857, a daughter of Tillman
and Margaret Koch. Her mother died in that
township, but her father is still living. To Mr.
and Mrs. Phillips has been born a son, John L.
At the time of his marriage our subject was
assisting his brother at the Infirmary, and his wife served
as matron of that institution for over three years.
During the following six years he engaged in farming in
Tiffin township, and then, being appointed superintendent of
the Defiance County Infirmary, and assumed the duties of
that responsible position, which he most efficiently and
satisfactorily discharged until the spring of 1897, serving
in all six years. He then returned to the old
homestead in Tiffin township, which he is now successfully
operating. As a Democrat he takes quite an active
interest in all local matters of a political nature;
socially he affiliates with the Masonic fraternity.

EDWIN
PHELPS. For more than three score years
there dwelt in Defiance county, Ohio, Edwin Phelps (now
deceased), a man of sterling integrity and sound judgment,
whose character in its stern simplicity and upright bearing
stands out plainly and distinctly, a type of that past
generation whose watchword was Duty, whose characteristics
were industry and honesty.
Edwin Phelps was born at Old DeKalb, St. Lawrence
county, New York, December 30, 1815. In 1834 he
emigrated from New York to what is now Defiance county,
Ohio. From an old memorandum book it is learned that
on leaving New York he had three dollars in his pocket, and
that he had borrowed to come west; when he reached northern
Ohio he had seven cents left. On Aug. 20, 1834, he
was ferried across the Maumee river by the father of Mrs.
Jonas Colby and E. F. Lindenberger. He expended his
seven cents for crackers to appease his hunger, and then,
through the assistance of an uncle, he found employment with
the hotel keeper for eight dollars a month and board.
Three years later he was appointed clerk of the courts of
Williams county, eight years before the organization of
Defiance county. He active work in the interests of
his town and county and his careful attention to whatever
duties fell to his lot, made him a much-sought man for
public office.
In 1839 he was admitted to the Bar before the Supreme
Court of Ohio, and the committee that examined him - Peter
Hitchcock, Henry Stanberry, P. B. Wilcox, John W. Andrews
and Judge George J. Smith - was composed of men whose fame
was national. In 1845, when the county seat of
Williams county was changed from Defiance to Bryan, the
people determined on the organization of Defiance county.
As Mr. Phelps was well known as a stanch Democrat in his
political faith, he was selected to go to Columbus and to
use his influence to secure the erection of Defiance county;
that his efforts were crowned with success is shown in the
history of the State. He was appointed the first
auditor of the new county, and was also a member of its
first board of school examiners. Was elected clerk of
the courts of 1857, and served for seventeen years. He
was actively interested in politics for almost his entire
life, attended all the State conventions as well as those of
the county, and some of the National conventions. The
last National convention to which he was a delegate was in
1864, when General George B. McClellan was nominated for the
Presidency at Chicago. Chief Justice White of the
Supreme Court of Ohio, after years of personal experience
with the work of Mr. Phelps as clerk of the courts, said
that "Mr. Phelps was the best and most accurate clerk of the
courts in Ohio."
He was not only prominent in politics, but also in
every interest that seemed to tend to the improvement and
progression of his community. He spent much time and
money in securing the location of the Toledo and Illinois
(now the Wabash) railroad through Defiance. Prior to
this he was actively engaged in the construction of the
Miami & Erie canal on which for a time he was employed.
It was through his influence and work that the Baltimore &
Ohio road secured the right of way through Defiance, and
again he labored almost unceasingly when he projected
Columbus, Lima & Milwaukee road was first talked of Mr.
Phelps was a man of fine physique, and his wonderful
constitution enabled him to perform tasks that an ordinary
man could not conceive of. Long hours of work,
physical or mental, seemed to leave no trace.
In 1840 Mr. Phelps was married to Mary A. Woodward, who
survived but one year; in 1843 he married Emily Eaton, and
to this union three children were born: Adelaide
Victoria; Emily J., who married Charles
Seymour, of
Defiance; and Ida R., who married Mr. Gensheimer, and now
lives in Erie, Pennsylvania. For his third wife Mr.
Phelps, on Sept. 25, 1862, married Evaline
Richardson,
and to this union were born; Mary Alice, who married J. W.
Ackley, of Granville, Ohio; Helen Dorothy;
Julia, who
died in 1863; Grace, who died in 1870; Abbie, who married
F.
P. Weisenburger; and Edwin J. The father of this
family was found ever kind and liberal in his home, true to
his friends, honorable in his business relations faithful to
every trust. After four score years of toil, sustained
by the love and respect of all who knew him, this grand old
man passed quietly to his last rest, Sept. 28, 1897.
"His life was gentle and the elements so mixed in him
That nature may stand up and say to all the world.
This was a man."

WILLIAM
PHILLIPS. Mr.
Phillips is one of the leading and influential citizens
of Defiance township, Defiance county, where he was
successfully engaged in farming for forty years, and has
also been prominently identified with the material
development of the locality. He is a native of Ohio,
born Aug. 29, 1820, in Hamilton township, Warren county, and
on the paternal side is of Welsh descent. His parents
were Isaac and Ruanza (Kelly) Phillips, the former a
native of Pennsylvania, the latter of Loudoun county,
Virginia, and both died in Warren county, Ohio, in 1826 and
1884, respectively.
In their family were seven children - two sons and five
daughters - our subject being third in the order of birth.
He was six years old when his father died, and from that
time until he attained his fifteenth year he made his home
with his maternal grandfather, Peter Kelly. At
the age of seventeen he commenced learning the tanner's and
currier's trade, his term of apprenticeship not expiring
until he reached his majority. Having mastered the
business, he followed that occupation in his native county
for fourteen years.
While still residing in Warren county, Mr. Phillips was
married at the age of twenty-four years, to Miss
Cynthia Shawhan, who died in that county at the age of
thirty-two years. Of the three children born to them -
two sons and one daughter - only the daughter survives, and
she is now the wife of Jacob Adams, Esq., of Highland
Township, Defiance county. On Apr. 1, 1856, in
Richland township, Defiance county, Mr. Phillips
wedded Miss Mary Ann Kepler, a daughter of Samuel
and Rachel (McKinnis) Kepler, who were the first white
couple married in Hancock county, Ohio. They were
natives of Pennsylvania, and were honored pioneers of
Richland township, Defiance county. Mrs. Phillips,
who was born in that township, Mar. 9, 1827, was the
eldest of eight children - two sons and six daughters.
To our subject and his wife have been born six children,
namely: Rachel, now the wife of William
Dickey; Samuel K.; Robert W.; Josiah M.; Isaac K.; and
Mary E., wife of Albert Kusian.
Two years after his second
marriage, Mr. Phillips came to Defiance county, first
locating in Highland township, where he continued to live
until 1872, when he removed to his present farm in Defiance
township. In this county he has devoted his time and
attention to agricultural pursuits, and in his undertakings
has met with excellent success, owning at one time six
hundred acres of fine farming land, but has since disposed
of all but two hundred acres, which he has placed under a
high state of cultivation and improved with all modern
conveniences, making it one of the best farms in Defiance
township.
Since its organization, Mr. Phillips has been an
ardent supporter of the Republican party, and as a good
citizen he has always taken a commendable interest in public
affairs, giving his support to all measures which a member
of the Patrons of Husbandry since 1872, and is a charter
member of Auglaize Grange, No. 371. Religiously he and
his wife are both worthy members of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, and wherever known they are held in high regard for
their sterling worth and many excellencies of character.

WILLIAM
PRICE.
The fertile soil of this
section has attracted an enterprising class of
agriculturists, among whom a high type of citizenship
prevails. The subject of this biography, a wealthy
resident of Farmer township, Defiance county, settled in
that locality in April, 1845, and by industry and good
management has accumulated a handsome property, being the
owner of three amongst the best farms in the county.
Born Aug. 9, 1820, in Dauphin county, Pennsylvania,
Mr. Price is a son of John and Sarah (Will) Price, both also
natives of Pennsylvania, the former born in the city of
Philadelphia. Our subject, who is the fifth in a
family of eleven children- five sons and six daughters - was
about three years old when his parents came to Ohio with
their family, which then consisted of six children.
The father, who was a shoemaker by trade and also a farmer,
his sons doing the farming, purchased land in Sugar Creek
township, Stark county, where he remained eight years and
then, selling out, removed to Wayne county, and spent two
years there. The lands in Hancock county being
disposed of by the government at that time, he availed
himself of the opportunity to secure a tract for a
homestead, where his remaining years were passed. He
died December 26, 1869, aged seventy-nine years and eleven
months, and his estimable wife breathed her last Mar. 12,
1870, at the age of seventy-six years. When he came to
Ohio his farm "stock" consisted of a blind mare, and when he
settled he ha just twenty-five cents cash capital.
Mr. Price, our subject, remained at the old homestead
in Hancock county until 1845, becoming familiar with all the
details of farm management. On removing to Defiance
county in April of that year, he settled on eighty acres in
Section 28, but disposing of that he in 1852 bought one
hundred and sixty acres in Section 10. In 1880 he
removed to Section 3, where he bought one hundred and
fifty-three one hundredths acres in all. As a citizen
he is public-spirited, taking an interest in all that
concerns the welfare of the community, and he is regarded as
one of the influential workers in the local Democratic
organization. At times he has held office in the
township, having served six years as clerk, one year as
assessor, and one year as land appraiser. Socially, he
and his family are prominent, and he is an active member of
the Masonic fraternity.
On May 28, 1846, Mr. Price was married in Farmer
township, Defiance county, to Miss Sarah Ann Thorp, who was
born May 13, 1825, a daughter of Isaac L. and Hannah (Evert)
Thorp, well-known pioneer settlers of that township, having
located there in 1836 on removing from their early home in
Wayne county. Of the ten children of this marriage
only two are now living: Sarah Ellen (wife of
Josiah
B. Miller), and Rachel (wife of Forest O. Hutchins); the
others were Orley E., Joseph E., Mary, Laura J., Orpha I.,
John H., Lambertha A. (Mrs. Jonas Fullmer) and Virgil T.
The mother of this family died Aug. 31, 1878, in Farmer
township, and on May 20, 1880, Mr. Price was married to
Mrs.
Fannie (Sweet) Wolford, who was born June 24, 1835, in St.
Lawrence county, New York, a daughter of Thomas J. and
Ormanda (Bowker) Street. Her first husband, Emanuel
Wolford, died in Farmer township, Defiance county, October
10, 1872, leaving four children: Frank W.; Carrie E. (Mrs.
H. M. Wolt); Ida O. (who married George Beerbower, and died
in Farmer township, Sept. 4, 1882), and Effie L. (who
did not long survive her father, her death occurring
November 13, 1872 at the age of five years.). Mr.
Price started in life with nothing save good health, courage
and indomitable perseverance, all he now owns being the
result of his own unaided efforts.
