John Pfalzgraf

     John Pfalzgraf was a product of Monroe county, and was born February 11, 1837, in Seneca township, Monroe county, Ohio, two and one-half miles southeast of Calais, on section 4.  He is a son of one of the thrifty farmers and one of the early pioneers.  In 1865 he moved to the farm, in Adams township, where he now resides.  This farm is one of the finest improved farms in the county, of 670 acres.  His mode and manner of farming is up-to-date.  The farm he now lives on was entered in 1831, and the Patton deed signed by Andrew Jackson, President of the United States.  He has raised a family of twelve children, all living but one: he died while young.  Seven boys and four girls are living; two sons married.  It will be readily perceived that John Pfalzgraf is equipped with a thorough practical and legal education.  In 1873 he was elected county infirmary director for six years.  While in his official duty his aim and purpose is to sweep away the cobweb forms that are too often interposed by ingenius persons in the path of justice.
     He was elected in 1889 county commissioner and served six years and nine months.  He was elected president of the board of commissioners.  He at all times carries his conscience into his official sphere, desiring the facts and the truth, that he may do justice to those who seek redress in his court, and who come in to have thrown around  them the justice, fairness and protection of the law.  He believes that a public office is a public trust, and conducted the commissioner's office on strictly business principles.0

SCHOOLS BY SUBSCRIPTION
IN THE PIONEER TIMES OF MONROE

     Judge James R. Morris, in speaking of the subscription school, said:  The term of subscription was $1 per scholar for a term of three months.  The teacher boarded around among the scholars; that is he boarded in the families of the scholars for the length of time warranted by the number of pupils sent by the family.  Before the holidays the

teacher was compelled to sign an article that on Christmas or New Year's day he would treat the boys to ginger cakes, cider and apples, or they would bar him out of the school house,  r if he got in first they would smoke him out.  If he still refused to sign the article, they would take him to the nearest creek and duck him.
