CHAPTER IV.
CLARIDON TOWNSHIP
Pg. 691
INDESCRIBABLE
thoughts and feelings are awakened in the mind and heart of one, when
contemplating the mighty work done by the fearless, hardy and brave army of
pioneers, whose untiring efforts having subdued the mighty forests of this
county and caused her waste places to smile in the sunlight of Heaven and
yield an abundance of grain and fruit, and who have cleared her myriads of
hills and valleys, which are annually covered with rich harvests or crowned
with green pastures. To the early settlers of Claridon Township who
endured the privations incident to establishing homes in a new and unbroken
country, and who bravely battled to removed her majestic forests and to make
it possible to cultivate her fertile plains are due their full portion of
credit and the everlasting gratitude of their posterity.

EARLY SETTLEMENT.
CLARIDON
FURTHER SETTLEMENT.
The country about Claridon,
especially along the valley of the Olentangy, or the Whetstone, as it is
more recently called, was too fertile and productive and possessed too many
wild and enchanting beauties to be long neglected by those who were seeking
desirable locations for homes, and while the village of Claridon never
recovered from the shock mentioned, and while, for a number of years, it
received but few accessions, the country in that vicinity was being settled
by a steady flow of immigrants. Among them were Thomas Boyce
and wife, who came in 1828; William Mitchell and fmaily came the
following year and located about one mile and a half south of the village.
John Underwood and family settled two and a half miles east in 1829.
Also Peter Gable and Henry Holverstott, who came in 1830;
Joseph Smith, James Lawrence and Charles Owens, who located in
1832; Jefferson Smith, Obadiah Miller, and Matthew Fields,
who, with their families, took up their abode here in 1834.
Numerous others came at a later date, and among them
were Jacob Howser and family and Dr. J. W. Devore and family,
the former from Harrison County, Ohio, and the latter from the neighboring
county of Knox. They both located near the village of Claridon and
both have been unusually prosperous, and they now number their possessions
in lands by the hundreds of acres, and the live stock owned by them is of a
superior quality. They are both honorable and influential gentlemen,
and have done much to forward the material interest of Claridon Township.
Each has his residence near the village of Claridon, and each is living in a
comfortable manner and handsome style. Dr. Devore was called
upon the represent this county in the halls of legislation at Columbus in
the years 1870 to 1872, and did so with much credit to himself and
satisfaction to his constituents, leaving a record well worthy of high
ambition, and one of which his friends may well be proud.
The northern portion of the township received a few
settlers at an early date, but the settlements there did not at first
increase as rapidly as the one around the village of Claridon. Capt.
George Beckley in his reminiscences of the early settlement of the
Whetstone Valley, in Marion County, Ohio, written by him and published in
1875, says that when he came to this part of the township with his father
and his father's family in 1821, Daniel Wyatt and Thomas Van Horn
lived near where Caledonia now stands. In fact, Caledonia is located
on a part of the land then owned by them. He also speaks of
Jeremiah Colden and Isaiah Mattix as having been employed by his
father to erect his cabin, and, doubtless, they, too, were located near the
same place.
NATHAN CLARK, and his
wife and four year old son, natives of Connecticut, came to this part of the
township in the spring of 1820. Mr. Clark also entered a
part of the lands on which Caledonia now stands, and located on the bank of
the Whetstone, a short distance south of the site of the town, where the
family resided until in 1828, when they removed to the farm now occupied by
the son, C. N. Clark. In June, 1842, C. N. Clark, Esq.,
married Miss Sarah Garberson, a daughter of William Garberson,
one of the early settlers of this section of the county, and upon the farm
just mentioned both families continued to reside until a short time before
his death, when the old gentleman moved to Caledonia, in which village he
peacefully passed the evening of his life.
WILLIAM GARBERSON,
one of the old pioneers, who recently passed away, emigrated from
Westmoreland, Penn., in 1823 with his wife and one child, and located here
near the present site of Caledonia, and here started a tannery, which proved
to be a great convenience in supplying the early settlers with leather, and
also quite a source of revenue for Mr. Garberson.
GEORGE ULSH, also a native
of Pennsylvania, having been born in Perry County, came, bringing with him
his wife and four children, to Marion in the winter of 1828, and there
remained with his uncle, Maj. Ulsh, until the following
spring, when he moved out on the farm on which he still resides. The
farm was a portion of what was the "Turnpike Lands," which belonged to the
"Columbus & Sandusky Turnpike Company," and which then had just recently
been established. Although this was in the year 1829, Mr. Ulsh
was the first settler along that road or turnpike within the limits of
Claridon Township. Mr. Ulsh's first cabin, intended, for
temporary purposes only, was constructed of large poles; in dimensions it
was about 12x16 feet, with stick chimneys, mud jambs, paper windows, etc.;
but in this the family lived four years, at the end of which time they
erected a larger, more substantial, more convenient and more comfortable
dwelling, which Mr. Ulsh had erected near by, and in which the family
kept tavern for a period of more than seven years; and received, for those
days, considerable patronage, as there was considerable travel at that time
on the Columbus & Sandusky Turnpike running by Mr. Ulsh's place.
Mr. Ulsh has since built a neat, substantial brick residence, which
he and the remainder of his family now occupy. Benjamin Bell
came to this township at an early day and located on Bee Run, and was one of
the first settlers; also George Hollman, who then lived on a part of
the place since purchased and owned by Mr. Ulsh. Christopher
Croft came in about the year 1834, and located where his son, Samuel
Croft, now resides.
DR. BOOTH was one of the
early doctors of this vicinity, and lived where Montgomery Lindsay
now resides. Here the Doctor, in common with the practice of that day,
freely administered extract of white oak and Peruvian bark, and jalap and
calomel. Joseph and Philip Strawbridge lived near Dr.
Booth's home.
PHILIP SLICK came in the
year 1831 and located on the mud pike, at the crossing of the railroads, and
within a year or two established and kept a public house for the
accommodation of the traveling public, and for many years it was known as
Slick's tavern, and to his day the place is called "Slick's
Station."
WILLIAM S. AYE was
the first white child born within the limits of this township, he having
been born Jan. 19, 1821. His father, Jacob Aye in the year
1820, entered the farm now owned by Mrs. Douce, and during that year
he, with his wife, moved on to this place. They lived there but two or
three years and then sold the farm to Vincent Douce, and at once
entered another place, a little southeast of where Caledonia now stands.
From thence, in a few years, they moved to the farm now owned and occupied
by William S. Aye just across the line in Canaan Township, Monroe
County. From here, the family moved to Delaware County, where Mr.
Aye engaged in running a mill for a short time, but soon returned again
to the farm in Morrow County, where Mr. Jacob Aye died in the year
1871.
ROBERT KERR
SQUIRRELS.
The early settlers of this township
experienced much trouble, for the first few years, in protecting their crops
from the ravages of the squirrels, which were so numerous that in a few days
they would destroy and take a small crop of corn, such as our pioneer
fathers then planted. Mr. Rice, an early pioneer, relates that
in the spring of 1822, he planted four or five acres of corn, on a patch of
ground he had succeeded in getting cleared, and it grew nicely and had
nearly ripened, when the squirrels made a raid on it in droves, and in three
days they had destroyed the entire crop, stalks, ears and all. Often,
in those early days companies were organized and certain days set for all to
assemble and take a grand squirrel hunt, and as a greater incentive and
inducement, a prize was generally offered to him who would kill the greatest
number of squirrels during such hunts. Mr. Rice, Mr. Olds, Mr. Aye
were all excellent "shots" and very often their expeditions against the
squirrels resulted in their securing about an equal number of these little
animals. Nor was this the only game that then abounded. The
original forests teemed with deer, pheasants and wild turkey, while the
waters were covered with innumerable flocks of ducks and wild geese.
INDIANS.
A number of the Wyandot Indians
still lingered here at the commencement of the early settlement of the
township. Among them were the noted Tom Lyons, "Standing Stone,"
"Between the Logs,'' and others.
The early settlers usually held their elections at some
private residence. Two cabins in this township have been mentioned as
having been used for this purpose. One was that of Mr. Gaylord,
who lived a short distance north of Claridon, and the other was that of
Niger Royce, who then lived in the northern part of the township, on the
mud pike, near where the railroads now cross it.

the United Brethren in Christ -
CEMETERIES.
The "Underwood Burying Ground"
was laid out about 1835 as a private cemetery. There are now about a
hundred graves contained within this inclosure, among them those of Adam
Hines, a soldier of 1812, and Jesse Underwood, a soldier of the
last war.
The "Gable Cemetery" is situated on the A.
Gable farm, and is also a private burying ground. Here lie the
remains of Joseph Wyant, a solder of the last war.
The "Threw Graveyard," situated on the west half
of the southwest quarter of Section 9, was laid out at a very early day and
was used by the people as a public burying-ground. It contains about a
half acre and contains the remains of many of the oldest pioneers of
Claridon Township.
The "Lawrence Burying Ground" is on the late
James Lawrence's farm and was used as a family burying place.

CALEDONIA.
The first
cabin erected on the present site of Caledonia stood on the
west bank of the Whetstone, a short distance east of where
the depot now stands. This, however, was before
Caledonia was thought of as a town. In 1830, John
Parcel purchased of Daniel Wyatt, the original
proprietor from the Government, the land upon which
Caledonia was originally laid out and upon which a portion
of it is now built, at a cost of $145 for forty acres.
He at once cleared a few acres of the northern portion of
the land, and a year or two later he opened a kind of a
country store at a spot a short distance south of the little
run that passes through the southern part of the town as it
now stands, and by and by a little hamlet in the woods
appeared at that point, and Mr. Parcel was not the
only merchant, for William T. Farrington had also
established a little store three.
In 1883, William T. Farrington bought twenty-two
acres of land from John Parcel, a part of it being a
portion of the forty acres just mentioned and a part of it
from the north half of the west half of the northeast
quarter, all of it, however, lying on the west side of the
Whetstone. This twenty acres extended down near the
south line of the original plat.
These stores supplied the settlers around here with
many of the necessaries of life, and soon a demand was
created for greater supplies, and in the early part of the
following year, Mr. Farrington and others began to
contemplate the propriety of laying out a town.
Accordingly, in December, 1834, William T. Farrington,
Richard Wilson and Charles H. Weed
purchased of John Parcel about five acres additional,
paying therefore $100, which purchase is located and
described as follows: "Being a part of the east half
of the southwest quarter of Section 1, Township 5, Range 16,
in Marion County, Ohio, commencing at a stake standing in
the center of the two roads running north and south
and east and west, near the store now owned and occupied by
Hunter & Hipsher; thence west thirty-five rods;
thence south twenty-four rods; thence east twenty three
rods; thence south twenty-four rods; thence east twenty-four
rods; thence east twenty-three rods; thence north ten rods;
thence east twelve rods; thence north fourteen rods to the
place of beginning." At the same date, Richard
Wilson and Greenville Cherry bought about one and
a third acres of land from the same owner, John Parcel,
at a cost of $300, the boundaries of which strip is given as
follows: "Commencing twenty-four rods south of a stake
in the center of the street near the store of Mr.
Farrington; thence south eighteen rods; thence west
twelve rods; thence north eighteen rods; thence east twelve
rods to the place of beginning.
Upon these two lots of land and a small portion of the
twenty-two acres formerly purchased of John Parcel by
William T. Farrington the town of Caledonia was laid
out by these two men as proprietors, it having been surveyed
and platted by Samuel Holmes, April 11, 1834, who was
then Surveyor of Marion County; but it was not acknowledged
by them until Dec. 30, 1834.
The town in its original survey, contained thirty-three
full lots of uniform size, they being 4x9 poles, and then
lots of various sizes, some along the..............MORE

MILLS.
The first mill,
which was a water-power mill, was built, together with the
race, about 1834, by Mr. Parcel. It was only
one story high and had two run of buhrs. It ran for
some years, the only mill in this section of the country,
except a tread-mill in Tully Township. It has long
since been destroyed.
Merchant's Mills - This was built about
1859, by Mr. Harmon; it was two stories high and had
one pair of wheat buhrs and one of chopping. After
running the mill until 1`867 or 1868, Mr. Harmon sold
it to G. G. Freeman, who put in new works. A
year or two afterward, he sold it to Frederick Fisher,
by an assignee, who made some repairs, and then sold to
J. H. Coulter, Roberts, Rinker, McNutt, and Couter. J.
H. Coulter now owns the Merchant's Mill.
Eureka Mills - These were built in 1875
by W. J. Miller. It is a two and a half story
structure, with three run of buhrs, costing $9,000. In
the fall of 1875, it was purchased by Noal Lee and
Silas J. Hipsher, who added another pair of buhrs and
nearly all the present machinery. The engine is 50
horse power. Three men are employed to run it, and
they manufacture both merchants' and custom flour.
Capacity of the mills, forty barrels of flour per day.

CALEDONIA GRAVEYARD.
This graveyard was
laid out and dedicated to its solemn purpose about the year
1824-25. It is situated on the west bank of the
Whetstone and within the corporate limits of the town.
This was the first burying ground in the township, and many
of the pioneer settlers of the Whetstone Valley now repose
in its silent graves. It contains the remains of two
or three patriots of the Revolutionary war, and one or more
soldiers of the war of 1812. Time has obliterated the
inscriptions on many of the marble slabs erected at the
first graves, and some of which are crumbling and falling to
the earth, leaving nothing but a little mound to mark the
resting place of the honored pioneer. The following
inscriptions were obtained from some of the most ancient
tombstones, and no doubt many of them were intimately
identified with the early history of Claridon and adjoining
townships.

This old graveyard
was used by the public till April, 1875, when the Caledonia
Cemetery Association was formed.
CALEDONIA CEMETERY ASSOCIATION.
This
cemetery association was composed of the citizens of
Caledonia and the surrounding country. A committee,
consisting of J. L. Bell, Martin Koch and
G. C. Ricker, was appointed and authorized to purchase
grounds appropriate for a cemetery. Seven acres of
land, situated on the east bank of the Whetstone, opposite
the village, was secured at a cost of $1,300. The land
was laid out in uniform lots and platted by Capt. George
Beckley, and now affords an admirable burying place.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.
Most of the
settlers of Claridon Township were poor, having barely means
enough to enable them to purchase their lands at the
Government price, get their families and household goods
transported through the trackless forest to their lands.
After they had succeeded in erecting their cabins, with
persistent energy, they set to work, and the heavy forests,
which were but a short time before the home of the red man,
began to disappear. It was soon found to be one of the
most fertile tracts in this section for agricultural
purposes, and to-day is one of the bets and richest
divisions of the county. The subjoined personal
sketches form a very important feature in the history of the
township. They go to prove what industry and energy
can accomplish, and lay down precedents which, if followed,
will lead to most prosperous results.
JOHN W. ANSELMENT, is a native of Claridon
Township, where he was born Sept. 23, 1845, the son of
Joseph and Catherine (Zuck) Anselment. His father
was born in Germany and immigrated to America in 1829.
He married in Marion County, but moved to Missouri in 1866,
where he died Dec. 6, 1882. His wife was born in Ross
County, Ohio, and died Mar. 12, 1861. The3y were the
parents of seven children, five surviving - Sarah,
Rebecca, John W., Charles and Lydia. Mary
and Catherine are deceased. Our subject
obtained a fair education in the common school, and married,
Dec. 27, 1872, Rebecca J. Bird, daughter of Simon
and Mary (Starr) Bird, and five daughters were born to
them - Ettie M., born Sept. 20, 1874; Maude E.,
Dec. 23, 1876; Leotie, Sept. 22, 1879; Blanch,
Jan. 17, 1881; and Alzora, Feb. 23, 1883.
Mrs. Anselment was born Oct. 31, 1852. Mr.
Anselment has always pursued the avocation of farming,
and so successfully that he owns to-day (1883) 323½
acres of fine land, valued at $75 per acre. Himself
and wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
In politics he is a Republican.
