Crestline; was born in Springfield Township, this county, on

from Jefferson Co., Ohio, about the year 1813, was one of the

old settlers, has earned by his own labor and good management

resides, containing 254 acres of well improved land, from the
sale of the products of which he realizes annually about $1,600,
and is considered one of the most successful farmers in the
county. He was married on Oct. 13, 1849, to Susan R.,
