HEZEKIAH REMSBURG
was born in Hagerstown, Maryland, Feb. 2, 1812; emigrated
with his father to Lower Sandusky, arriving at the latter place
on the 11th day of March, 1822. His education was in the
common school after he came to Ohio, and began in the first
school house built between the Sandusky River and the Maumee.
The house was a rude log structure which stood on the east
bank of Muskellunge Creek and north of the Maumee and Western
Reserve turnpike, and was probably erected about the year 1825.
Mr. Remsburg helped his father to clear off a fine farm
on Muskellunge Creek, south of the turnpike above mentioned and
adjoining it. The father of Mr. Remsburg was a
mechanic, whose services were in much demand as a millwright,
and the son learned the trade by working with his father in the
preparation of the mills which were built in an early period in
different parts of the county. Young Remsburg
inherited his father's mechanical talent, and afterwards worked
at various mechanical jobs when his services on the farm could
be dispensed with. Thus he passed his time, and also began
the study of law in 1849, under the tuition of Judge John L.
Green, sr., now deceased. He was admitted to the Bar at
Fremont in the year 1851, and has ever since practiced law, and
is now so engaged. He was elected prosecuting attorney for
Sandusky county, and performed the duties of that office four
successive years with ability and diligence. Mr.
Remsburg has been married, and has raised to man-hood four
sons now living, and has now been a widower for over ten years.
He is a well preserved man, of good habits, and bids fair to be
strong and active for many years to come.
