(RETURN TO THE TITLE PAGE) 300 - TOWNSHIP OF GOSHEN. engaged not only in farming, but has had charge of a sawmill, of which he bought a half-interest from William Kidd. These two gentlemen ran the mill two years, when Kidd sold his interest to Mead, and it was in operation under the management of this firm for sixteen years. In 1872, J. S. Strawn sold to a son of Mead. This mill was built in 1847, and the engine then put in by Thomas Sharp is still in the mill. Mrs. Strawn is of English descent, and was born in England, Oct. 26, 1827, coming to this country with her parents when but three years of age. J. S. Strawn has held several offices of trust in the township in which he lives. He is at present treasurer of the Summit Oil Company, of Pennsylvania. Portraits of Mr. and Mrs. Strawn, together with an illustration of their pleasant home, will be found elsewhere in this work, where it will remain as a monument to their industry and economy. JOEL ARMSTRONG. Joel Armstrong first saw the light on the morning of Aug. 9, 1808. His native element was the farm. He was born on a farm in Columbiana County. To agricultural pursuits alone he devoted his earliest and his latest labors 's, and no other business had sufficient charms to draw him away from his plow. Mrs. Armstrong was born in Fayette Co., Pa., April 26, 1821. The family of Mr. Armstrong consisted of eight children, o whom six are living. Ann P., born Dec. 1, 1838, died Aug. 17, 1873. Elizabeth T., born Feb. 18, 1840, was married to W. Templin, Oct. 18, 1860, living in Mahoning County ; Wm . T., born March 2, 1842, was killed at the battle of Perryville, on the 18th of October, 1862 ; Martha D., born Feb. 13, 1844, married to J. B. Templin, living in Nebraska ; S. H., born Sept. 26, 1846, married arm daughter of Mathias Johnson, living on the home farm ; Sarah S., born Sept. 29, 1848, married to W. H. Arnold, living in Salem ; Charlotte, born Sept. 23, 1850, living at the old home ; It. S., born June 21, 1853, living at the old home. Joel Armstrong died Feb. 10, 1865 ; Mrs. Joel Armstrong is still living. She, with three of her children, hove mentioned, live at the old home. This farm was entered by the father of Joel Armstrong in 1805, owned by Joel, and is now in the hands of the third generation, the son, S. H., who inserts the view of this old and much loved home. Many pleasant associations cluster around a home like this, when the forefather left a home, perchance, of comparative ease and comfort, and came to an almost unsettled country to endure the privations and hardships incident to new settlers, till his steady and earnest toil was rewarded by the blessings and crowned with the many bounties of Providence. Great changes grow out of steady and constant strokes; the sturdy forest is laid low, and there in time is reared the pleasant home, with all its cherished adornments. GEORGE KEELER. In the State of New Jersey, George Keeler first opened his eyes to the light of day on the 4th of October, 1817. When he was eight years old his parents and their family moved to Columbiana County. he family consisted of eleven children,—six sons and five daughters ; six of these were born in New Jersey, and five in Ohio. George resided with his parents during the early part of his life, assisting on the farm. He concluded to begin life for himself, his first important transaction being his marriage. In the year 1842 he led to the altar Tabitha, daughter of John and Mary Addis, a very estimable lady. His decision then was to secure a home in the country. His first purchase was one hundred and sixty acres of land, for which he paid thirty dollars and fifty cents per acre. Shortly after this purchase he made the second, of fifty-three acres, at fifty dollars per acre, and the third, of ninety acres, at forty-five dollars per acre ; the last purchase is situated in Berlin township, Mahoning Co. He has devoted much of his time to trading and dealing in stock. He now has on his farm about four thousand dollars' worth of cattle and sheep, seventy head of cattle, and three hundred head of sheep. By industry and frugality, coupled with a certain degree of shrewdness, he has managed to secure a comfortable competency, which he now enjoys, with a fair prospect of. continuing thus to reap the benefits of a successful career for yet many years. In politics, Mr. Keeler has always been called a Democrat, but he has not always supported the nominations of that party, reserving for himself. the right to select from the two parties the man he considered best fitted for the position to be occupied. Mr. Keeler's family consists of eight children, as follows : Markis, Fred, Mary J., Martha, Franklin, Oren, Jobe, and Midair M. All are living but one,—Markis, who died April 10; 1846, aged three years. GREEN                THIS township is situated on the southern border of Mahoning County, near the centre, and is bounded on the north by the townships of Ellsworth and Canfield ; on the east by the township of Beaver ; south, by Salem and Perry ; and west, by Perry and Goshen. Its northern boundary is the southern line of the " Western Reserve." The surface is that of an undulating upland, broken only by the valleys lying along the middle fork of Beaver Creek. This fork enters the township in section 7 (near the north part, on the west line), flows southeasterly, passing near New Albany, crosses section 29 of Perry township, and enters Green again on section 28 ; thence it flows southeast through section 33, passing into the township of Salem, about half a mile west of the corporation of Washingtonville. One of the forks of Beaver Creek rises in the northeast part of the township, flows southerly t 0.11 the second tier of sections from the east, and passes out on the south border at Washingtonville. The soil of the township is well adapted to the cultivation of trees, small fruits, grass, and grain. The valleys and slopes are heavily timbered with oak, chestnut, and beech. Woodlands and cultivated fields abound, and form on every hand pictures pleasing to tile eye. EARLY SETTLEMENTS. The attention of the Germans, and of the people of the eastern part of Pennsylvania, was early attracted by the excellence of the land In the Northwest Territory ; and soon after the lands were surveyed and made accessible, and land-offices opened, many emigrated with their families to the then far West. Green \township received its proportion of the incoming tide of population. SECTION I. For many years this section was unoccupied. It was entered by a man who lived at the East, and was afterwards bought by Eben Newton, of Canfield, whence it is known as the "Newton Section." It has been subdivided into smaller farms. In the northern part of the section are several small coal-banks. SECTION II. Among the emigrants who came to this country from Germany were Henry Pyle and his wife. They entered section 2 about the year 1804, and were the first who settled in that part of the township. They lived in a small log house on section 10, afterwards used as a school-house, before they moved upon the land they had bought. In after-years the section was divided among his children. A daughter of Henry Pyle married David Loveland, and their descendants are living on a farm purchased from the government. The Niles and New Lisbon Railroad runs through this section, and a station called " Loveland" is situated upon the lower border. Near the depot is a saw-mill owned by J. Paulin. An Evangelical Association church is also situated near the station. A fruit and ornamental nursery, situated on the northeast quarter of the section, and owned by Lewis Templin, has been for several years in successful operation. A post-office was established at Loveland in 1869. Lewis Templin is postmaster. Mr. Templin was one of the contributors to the history of Mahoning County. SECTION III The first person who built a house on this section was a Mr. Spangler, a squatter, who did not remain many years. The section was entered by — Rhodes, but he did not live upon it. It remained in his possession until 1829, when he sold the northwest quarter to John Beard, the northeast quarter to Caspar Kenreich, the southeast quarter to Nicholas Knauff, and the southwest quarter to John Goodman. A steam saw-mill is on the northwest quarter of the section, and is owned by Jacob Toots. SECTION IV. Henry Beard, with his wife and five children, sons and daughters, emigrated from Germany to this country in 1804, and entered section 4, built a log house, and commenced subduing the native forests. The mighty oaks and towering chestnuts fell beneath the sturdy blows, the dense woods gave way to small clearings, which in turn were enlarged under the plodding persistence of this hardy family of Teutons. John, the eldest son, succeeded to the northeast quarter of the section. John Goodman, a son-in-law, came into possession of 100 acres on the south side of the 'section. Henry, a son, occupied 100 acres north of Goodman's farm. Caspar Kenreich and Valentine Clay, sons-in-law, had each 100-acres, and Nicholas Knauff, a grandson, occupied the homestead. Much of this section is in the possession of the family at the present time, 1879. A union church stands on this section, a little north of the middle. George Hively (who married a daughter of — Rhodes, who entered section 3) purchased a farm in the southeast quarter, upon which his descendants still reside. SECTION V. James Webb, a son of John Webb, of Salem, entered the south half of section 5, paying therefor $1.25 per acre, and John Beard, the son of Henry, who entered section 4, - 301 - 302 - TOWNSHIP OF GREEN. purchased the north half. In 1846, Henry Beard, a son of John Beard, purchased of James Webb the place where he now lives. His son Samuel, and Henry E., son of John, Jr., occupy the south half of the section. SECTION VI. This section was first settled upon by Philip Bauman, who exchanged for it land he owned in Redstone, Pa. It was afterwards divided among his children,—Christian, Joshua, John, and a son-in-law, —the descendants of whom are still living on this section, and on adjoining sections in Green and Goshen. Comfort C. Bauman is living on the northwest quarter of section 6, and John Bauman on the southwest quartet. SECTION VII. Michael Durr and two sisters, Elizabeth and Mary, emigrated from Ireland, and entered section 7 in 1804. With the exception of a farm in the northeast quarter, owned by Joshua Bauman, and one by John Cessna, in the northwest quarter, the section remained in the possession of the family. SECTION VIII. This section was occupied early by a man named Rupert, who lived where St. Clair Travis now lives, on the southwest quarter. A man named — Hahn settled on the same quarter. John D. Cook, later, bought the northwest and southeast quarters, and James Webb the northeast quarter. SECTION IX. Early settlers upon section 9 were Jacob Cool, who settled on the northeast quarter, where. H. Goodman resides, and George and Jacob Countryman, who located on the southeast quarter, where Jacob Cook lives. On the latter farm is a large spring. Mr. Goss settled near the middle of the cast half of the section where M. Kenreich lives. SECTION X. Philip and Jacob Cool, John Hafely, and ____Van Amin, were early on this section,—Van Amin on the northeast and Hafely on the southeast quarter, where Pierson D. Cook resides. SECTION XI. For many years this section remained unsettled, the persons who entered it living in the East. Jacob Miller and Michael and George Culps were probably the first to open the way and commence the development of the rich and yielding soil. The Culps held land in the south part of the section which is now occupied by Deacon Cook and L. M. P. Frederick. Andrew Cockel purchased a part of the farm of Jacob Miller. James McKee was in the northeast part of the section, where John Beard lives. SECTION XII. Philip Houts, a German, settled on the west part of section 12, and divided it among his children. On the place was a large spring, where Houts built a distillery, which was in operation for many years, and until about 1830. There is a, school-house on the northwest corner of the section. A part of the family of Houts now live on the farm. SECTIONS XIII. AND XXIV. These two sections were purchased about 1815 by Joshua Calvin for his sons, who came out from New Jersey with their families in 1816, arriving April 27th, of that year. Section 13 had been previously entered by Michael and Rudolph Cook, who sold to Joshua Calvin. Samuel, son of Joshua, located on this section, and Luther, another son, located upon the section south. These sections are yet chiefly in the possession of the family. Two hundred acres of the northwest quarter of section 24 were bought quite early by William Hendricks from a man who lived "on the other side of the mountains." A school-house stands on the southwest corner of section 13. A Baptist church and a burying-ground are situated on the northwest corner of section 24. SECTION XIV. Section 14 was entered by a stranger who became involved in financial difficulty and sold it to Abram Garber. The latter sold the southeast quarter to Robert Calvin, who, with his sons, still occupies it. Jonas Slagle purchased the northeast quarter. The west half passed through many hands. The Niles and New Lisbon Railroad passes through the section parallel with the western line, and a short distance therefrom. Greenford station is on the east-and-west highway, near Green Village. SECTION XV. Lewis Baker, a native of Kentucky, married Elizabeth, a daughter of John Zimmerman, who entered section 34. In 1808 they located on the southeast quarter of section 15, where the Lutheran church now stands. Lewis Baker, Jacob Wilhelm, and Jacob Cook owned the land where the village of Green is situated. The northern part of the section was purchased by — Rhodes, who had entered section 3. It passed subsequently into the possession of the Cools and Callahans. SECTION XVI. This section was set aside by government as a school lot. A law of the State permitted a sale of the lot for school purposes, and in 1849 a majority of the people decided it should be sold. In accordance with such decision, the auditor of state ordered a public sale in the year named. John D. Cook purchased the southwest quarter; — Bly, the northwest quarter ; Wesley Coy, 60 acres ; S. Hulin, 69 acres ; M. Kenreich, 100 acres ; and James L. Cook, 70 acres, the last four purchasing on the east half. SECTION XVII. Job Cooke, one of the early settlers at Salem, entered section 17 and divided it among his sons. Jacob was given the south third, Thomas the middle, and William the north third. This third afterwards passed into the hands of George Pow, to whose estate it still belongs. One or two small coal-banks have been opened in the southwest quarter of the section. TOWNSHIP OF GREEN - 303 SECTION XVIII. About 1810, James Wilson entered this section, and held it in the family many years. He divided it among his children. William came into possession of the northwest quarter, and James the northeast quarter. John and his two sisters occupy the south half, the old homestead. There is a coal-bank on the farm, which has been opened many years, but is not much worked at present. SECTION XIX. Edward Bonsall came from Mount Pleasant, Jefferson Co., Ohio, having married Rachel, the daughter of Abram Warrington. Mr. Warrington had located section 19 for him in 1811. It was afterwards divided between Mr. Bonsall's sons. Edward lives on the southeast quarter. Ivan and Joshua live on the northeast quarter, where John Sears now lives ; Isaac, on the southwest quarter. Edward Bonsall, thirty-five or forty years ago, began an ornamental and fruit nursery, which is still in successful cultivation. His son, Joseph, started a market-garden, and has extended his business to the cultivation of flowers. Coal has been mined to some extent on this section for many years. The vein is an average of three feet in thickness, and yields, as now worked, nearly 40,000 bushels annually. SECTION XX. Elisha Teeter entered this section for his sons about the year 1808. John had the south third, where John Gordon resides ; Jonathan, the middle third ; William, the east side of the north third ; Wilson lived on the homestead, where the town of New Albany is situated. Wilson Teeter and Edwin Webb built at New Albany, in 1822, the first steam-mill in this part of the country. The engine was brought from Pittsburgh, and, it proving to be very faulty, a law-suit grew out of its purchase. The next year after, a grist-mill was erected at the settlement. These mills continued many years, and were finally sold to David Ball, who removed the machinery of the saw-mill to Green Village. A coal-bank was opened by the Teeters about forty-five years ago, and is now owned by Charles Getz. It is probably the largest in the township, excepting the banks at Washingtonville, and extends under the surface half a mile. The vein is about three feet thick. The bank now owned by John Gordon was also opened by the Teeters, but is worked by Robert Auld, master. SECTIONS XXI. AND XXII. These sections were held as reserved lands" for many years. Jeremiah Callahan, Philip Bush, Jacob Wilhelm, Caleb Roller, John Stahl, and others, from about 1819 to 1825, settled upon them. H. Wilhelm lives on the property purchased by his father, in the northwest quarter of section 22. The Stahls hold the farm they first selected, on the northeast quarter of section 22. John Stahl, a grandson, is engaged in the drug-business in Green. John Bush occupies the farm Philip selected in 1819. Caleb Roller lived on the north part of section 21 ; Daniel Coy, where the Disciple church now stands. Jeremiah Callahan, in 1812, settled where his family reside, on the southwest quarter of section 21. A log church was built in an early day on the northwest corner of section 21, which was torn down about 1845. A grave-yard was opened, adjoining, which is still used. The Disciple church is situated west of the site of the old log church. A school-house stands on the east-and-west road on the north side of the section. A coal-bank has been opened in the northwest quarter. SECTION XXIII. This section was entered by a man from Pennsylvania. In 1816 he sold the north half to Michael Roller, of Virginia, who sold the west: half of his purchase to Joseph Charlton. A part of the south half was sold to Michael Dressel, by whose descendants it is owned. Michael Roller brought an apple-tree from his Virginia home, which was carefully cultivated by Dr. J. M. Hole. The stock has been extensively distributed through the country, and is known as the " Roller Spitzenberg." S. W. Roller, a son of Michael, is living on the farm purchased by his father. SECTIONS XXV AND XXVI. These sections, it is believed, were entered by John Harness and Jacob Momert in 1804. They were sold, years afterwards, to the Stouffers, Knopp, the Rollers, and others. A school-house is situated on the sonthwest corner of section 26. SECTION XXVII. Peter Weikert and John Carr, then neighbors, living in Adams Co., Pa., some time in 1804, saddled their horses and journeyed westward, to view the country for the purpose of finding homes for their families where soil and climate both were good. They traveled by a pocket-compass, following section lines. Mr. Weikert was pleased with section 27, and entered it at Steubenville. Mr. Carr went farther, and entered a section near where Georgetown is situated. The next year Mr. Wiekert moved to his new home, with his wife and a family of nine children. John settled on the northeast quarter, where Josiah Weikert now resides , Andrew, on the northwest quarter ; David, on the southwest quarter ; and Jacob, on the southeast quarter. Dr. Andrew and Jacob now-1879--live at Green Village. Dr. Weikert has been for many years a practicing physician and surveyor, and was clerk of the township from 1831 to 1845. A school-house is situated on the road which runs east and west through the middle of the section. SECTION XXVIII. In 1804, Elias Adgate and William and James Callahan, all brothers-in-law, left Redstone, Pa., and t out for the West. At that time nothing less than a section could be entered. Elias Adgate entered section 28, which subsequently was divided, Adgate taking 120 acres of the east part of the south half; James Callahan, the remaining part of the south half; and William Callahan, the north half. Mr. Callahan afterwards divided his land among his children, leaving to Elias 55 acres, in the northeast corner ; to Nancy, who married Isaac Brookhast, 55 acres ; to 304 - TOWNSHIP OF GREEN. Hannah, who remained on the homestead, 59 acres ; to Matilda, who married ____ Chapman, 69 acres ; to Elizabeth, who married Benj. Gee, 59 acres ; and to Nathan, 55 acres. Jeremiah Callahan, a brother of William and James, came to Green in 1812, and settled near his brother William, on the section north. He had made a prior visit to Green with his brothers. Jesse Callahan, another. brother of William and James, came about 1808 and worked with them for a time, and then returned to Pennsylvania. He finally removed permanently to Columbiana County. His son, Thomas, has lived many years at the northeast corner of section 34. SECTION XXXIII. This section was entered by Samuel Davis in 1803. He received a deed from the government, signed by Thomas Jefferson, dated March 10, 1807. This section was distributed by gift and sale. The northeast quarter of the section was given to Rebecca Schofield, and is now occupied by J. M. Kenreich ; the northwest quarter to Mary Hawley, whose daughters, Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Hiddleson, are the present owners. The southeast quarter was sold to John Briggs, who built a grist-mill on the creek about 1819. Aaron Holloway, a few years later, built another mill, which is still standing, a short distance below the first., and is the property of J. H. Sell. Caleb Rossell purchased the southwest quarter, now owned by P. T. B. Ward. SECTION XXXIV. John Zimmerman, of Lancaster Co., Pa., came to this country in 1804 in search of land, and, being pleased with the situation of section 24, entered it. In the next year he moved upon it with his family, consisting of his wife, his son Peter and wife, his sons John, Conrad, Joseph, and Henry, and his daughters Mary, Susan, and Catharine. The section was subsequently divided, Peter receiving 100 acres, where William Betts now lives, in the southeast part of the section ; Joseph, 208 acres, where his son Abram now lives ; John, 100 acres in the southwest corner of the section, where John Shrimp resides ; Henry, 110 acres in the northwest quarter, where Jacob Stofer resides ; Conrad, 50 acres in the northeast corner, where Thomas Callahan now resides. Mary (a daughter of his son John), who had married Henry Coy, received 50 acres, where J. J. Moyer now lives. SECTION XXXV. Michael, Baltzer, and Caleb Roller, brothers, came from Huntingdon Co., Pa. Michael entered section 35 in 1801. Afterwards he gave the northwest quarter to his son Jacob, whose son William is now living at Greenford. To William, another son, he gave the southwest quarter. Thomas and James had the homestead, where Henry Walters now lives, Ion the east half. of the section. Washingtonville is situated on sections 35 and 36 in this township, and sections 1 and 2 in the township of Salem. Land for a church-site and burying-ground was given at a very early day by Michael and Baltzer Roller. SECTION XXXVI. Baltzer Roller entered this section in 1803. He went to Tennessee soon afterwards, where he spent a year, and then returned and settled upon the section. John B., a son, had the homestead, situated on the southeast quarter, Jacob B., the southwest quarter, and Joseph a part of the remainder. The most of the north half was sold to other persons. Col. Jacob B. Roller, son of Baltzer, served the district as a State representative for twenty-one years. He "as in Gen. Harrison's army, and was at Fort Meigs. While in the woods near the fort he stopped at a spring, and while stooping to drink was startled by the whizz of a bullet, which grazed the back of his head. He sprang to his feet, and, seizing his gun, fired at a retreating Indian, who, however, escaped uninjured. The Cherry Valley Iron and Coal Company own lands in this section. ORGANIZATION. Green township was incorporated June 3, 1806, under the general laws of the State, and was then in Columbiana County, where it remained until the organization of Ma-honing County, in 1846, when it was attached to that county. It originally contained 36 square miles, but by the organization of the township of Perry, in 1'832, was reduced to thirty-two square miles. CIVIL LIST.

GREEN VILLAGE is situated near the centre of the township, on sections 15 and 22, and was first laid out by Lewis Baker, Jacob Wilhelm, and Jacob Cook. Abram Stofer (or Stauffer) kept the first store. Samuel Hardman, David Weikert, and J. M. Hole have succeeded him. The first post-office was established in 1831, and William Van Horn was the first postmaster. He has been succeeded by David Weikert, William Roller, Danl. Beam, N. P. Callahan, A. S. Griffith, and Henry Shray, who is the present postmaster. The village at present-1879—contains three churches, Lutheran, German Lutheran, and Swedenborgian, a post-office, school-house, drug-store, two dry-goods- and grocery-stores, a tannery, steam saw- and planing-mill, grist-mill, two blacksmith-shops, two wagon-shops, two shoe-shops, and one millinery-store. In the village are two practicing physicians. WASHINGTONVILLE. This town was laid out about 1832, principally through the exertions and influence of Michael Frederick, and is situated in the townships of Green and Salem. It contains two churches (Methodist and Evangelical Lutheran), a post-office, school-house, three hotels, two blacksmith-shops, four grocery-stores, one dry-goods-store, one drug-store, two carriage-shops, two shoe-shops, about seventy-five dwellings, and has a population of 800. The first hotel was opened by Michael Frederick, about 1833. The first store was opened, in what is now " Railroad Tavern," by Jacob Stoffer,* who was appointed postmaster upon the establishment of the post-office, in 1836. He was succeeded as postmaster by Jacob Borton, Henry Estep, George R. Millburn, John B. Stover, Samuel Greenwold, and John R. Stover, who is the present postmaster. Peter Miller was the first blacksmith who opened a shop. Before removing to Washingtonville he resided one year at New Lisbon, where he built the first brick house. About 1828, John Miller, a blacksmith, began the manufacture of edge-tools, which he continued for about ten years. * This name appears to have various orthographies, 39 NEW ALBANY. New Albany is situated about two miles and a half west from Green Village, and contains a store, post-office, blacksmith-shop, and 22 dwellings. The first steam-mill in the county was built at this place, by Wilson Teeter and Edwin Webb, by whom the town was laid out. The post-office was established prior to 1853. The first postmaster was Henry Thulen, who was succeeded by Joshua Webb, Daniel Beam, Charles Taylor, Lemuel Hixson, Solomon Russell, David Coy, and Lewis Pow, the present incumbent. SCHOOLS. Soon after the settlers came to the township an effort was made among the widely-scattered families to assemble the children for purposes of education. Elisha Teeter gave for school and burying purposes a piece of ground situated on the east side of section 20, and a log school-house was built, about 20 by 24 feet in size, with a puncheon floor and a door with wooden hinges. The children from sections 17, 18, 19, and 20 attended school at this house. The first teacher was Edward Bonsall, who was succeeded by Rachel, his wife, and Priscilla Fisher, wife of William Fisher,—both daughters of Abram Warrington. John Cowdin, Patrick Smith, and Daniel Stratton were also teachers before the adoption of the district-school system. The first school-house for children living in the north middle part of the township was on the New Lisbon road, on land now owned by John Cook, on section 10. This was a log house built by Henry Pyle, who soon after removed to section 2. It was fitted with slab seats, and with desks fastened against the walls with wooden pins. In 1814, Samuel McBride was hired to teach. George Pow succeeded him. No school was taught there after Mr. Pow retired until the district schools were opened, in 1827. The' children from other sections, far and near, attended school in this log building. The first school in the centre of the township was held in the log church west of Green Village. A log schoolhouse was built on section 34, on land belonging to Jacob Stofer, which was attended by children from sections 27, 28, 33, and 34. Henry Zimmerman was the first teacher of this school, about 1815. William, Rachel, and Samuel Schofield, sons and daughter of David Schofield, afterwards taught in a second log school-house, built on the same ground. At Washingtonville, a school was opened about 1818, in the log church built by Michael and Baltzer Roller. John Roller and Henry Gilbert were among the first teachers. Owing to the imperfect records of schools in the early days, but little information can be obtained respecting them. SCHOOLS IN 1844. The following is from the earliest existing records: " 12 schools taught in township ; number of teachers, 10 ; number of children between the ages of four and twenty-one years, 338 males, 346 females ; number of children enrolled, 295 males, 241 females ; average daily attendance, 169 males, 131 females ; amount paid to teachers of common schools from public fund,—to males, $367.83 ; to females, $125. Amount paid from other source,—males, 306 - TOWNSHIP OF GREEN. $23 ; females, $23.50. Branches taught : reading, writing, arithmetic, English grammar, geography." The subjoined record also was taken from the township book : " June 2, 1849.—A vote was taken at the house of Moses Buck, in Green village, for the purpose of ascertaining whether section 16 s should be sold or remain ; 86 votes polled, and 42 against the sale." The section was sold in a lawful manner, and the avails deposited with the auditor of state, forming a fund the interest of which is devoted to the use of the schools of the township.

EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH. About the year 1815 a log church was built at Washingtonville, in which religious services were held. For many years the services were desultory, the German Lutheran and the Evangelical Lutherans worshiping together. In 1842 a reorganization was effected under Rev. John H. Hoffman, who was succeeded in the pastorate by Revs. Stowe, Baker, Hess, Hoffman, Wagner, Sloan, Hamilton, McGlochlin, Long, and Ruthraff. The latter is the present pastor. Mr. Stowe and Mr. Hess were German Reformed ministers, the others Evangelical Lutheran. The German Reformed element has nearly died out, and the organization and services are kept up by the Evangelical Lutherans. The society has a membership of 115, and a Sunday-school of 170 pupils, of which Henry Walter is superintendent. EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH, GREEN VILLAGE. This church was organized at Green Village, Nov. 25, 1841, with 36 members. A meeting-house, which is still in use, was built during the previous summer, and the organization perfected therein. Services had been held in the school-house for about a year prior to the erection of the house of worship. The first elders elected Were Jacob Roller and Andrew Weikert. John R. Zimmerman_ and William Roller were chosen deacons. The first pastor was Rev. John H. Hoffman, who was succeeded by Geo. Leiter, S. Wagner, W. J. Sloan, A. McLaughlin, N. H. Weaver, W. W. Long, and J. M. Ruthraff, who is the present minister. The membership of the church is 150. A Sunday-school is connected with it, which has 18 teachers and 150 pupils, and is superintended by Matthias Callahan. Wm. Roller, one of the first deacons, was superintendent of the Sunday-school over thirty years. GERMAN LUTHERAN CHURCH. The first services of this society were held at the residence of Michael Dressel in 1844, and afterwards, as their TOWNSHIP OF GREEN - 307 number increased, in the union log church, near the Disciple church. The present church, situated on the main street, was built in 1866. The first pastor was Rev. Mr. Hilsche, who was succeeded by Revs. Miller, Lyle, Slatterman, Siegle, Smith, Long, and Fagley. The last named is the present pastor. The society has about 30 members. SWEDENBORGIAN CHURCH. Among the residents of Green are a few followers of that man of fine sensibilities and vigorous and original thought, Emanuel Swedenborg. Nov. 16, 1874, a church was organized, with the following constituent members: Jacob Groetzinger, Amelia Groetzinger, Andrew Reichstadt, Henry Rhodes, Jr., John V., Christina, and Mary Stahl, John W., M. D., and Mary Coy, Peter McCave, Samuel McClure, and A. J. Haifley. Services were conducted by Rev. S. H. Spencer. Rev. H. C. Vetterling is the present pastor. A church was erected in 1875, at a cost of $2200, and dedicated in September of that year, by Rev. R. 0. Brig-man, of Allentown, Pa. CONCORD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. This church was organized with the following members : John Durr, Jacob Leyman, and Comfort, Andrew, and Josiah Bauman, and their wives. A lot was presented to them by John Cessna, and a church built thereon in 1869. It is situated on the northeast corner of section 7, on the township-line between Goshen and Green. The first pastor was Rev. Stratton, who was succeeded by Revs. Maxwell and McMahon. The society has no preacher at present (1879). BAPTIST CHURCH. The people of the Baptist denomination worshiped in the school-house for about two years after their organization as a society, in 1840. They built the present church in 1842, on land presented to them for church and burial purposes. Rev. William McGowen was the first preacher. He was succeeded by Revs. Chamberlain, Dodge, Ammerman, Leet, and E. Metzger. The church belongs to the Wooster Association, and has about 49 members. UNION CHURCH. Presbyterians and Lutherans united to form a society, and held services in the northwest part of the township, at the residence of Michael Durr. They afterwards built a log church on(section 4, on land owned by Henry Beard. Ministers of both denominations preached at different times. Henry Hewitt, a Lutheran minister, conducted the first services. Afterwards, Revs. Mona, Schmidt, Schwissler, Luther Baker, Pickizer, Long, Smith, and Albright served the society. The two denominations observed the sacrament in unison for about twenty years. The Lutherans are at present few in numbers, and the Presbyterians control the organization. Rev. Mr. Lumpy is supplying the pulpit. The society has at present (1879) about 40 members. The present church-edifice was built in 1866. DISCIPLE CHURCH. A log church was built many years ago at the corner of section 21, east of where the Disciple church now stands, which was used by Methodists, Lutherans, and people of other denominations. In 1841 a society was organized called " Disciples," and among its principal members were George Pow, John Flick, and Lewis Templin. Rev. Charles E. Van Voorhis was the first pastor, who was succeeded by Revs. Allerton, Baker, Miller, and Teegarden. The church contains about 70 members, and has a Sunday-school of 40 pupils, of which Wesley Coy is superintendent. The present church was erected in 1841. Near it is a cemetery, while another occupies the lot where stood the old log church. Both cemeteries are in use. EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION CHURCH. In June, 1864, preaching was begun on the Sabbath in the school-house at Loveland Station, in the northeast part of the township, Rev. J. H. Hollinger officiating. In October following a class was formed, consisting of fourteen persons,—Jonas Paulin and wife, A. M. Miller, Lydia and Sarah Miller, Jeremiah Paulin, Royal Collar and wife, Martha and Emma Collar, Lavina Rupert, Lydia Fox, Caroline Cook, and Sarah Hendricks. Services were continued in the school-house until 1872, when the present church-edifice was erected. The pastors who have succeeded Rev. Mr. Hollinger are Andrew Lanier, A. W. Teats, J. J. Barnhart, H. B. Summers, I. A. Rohland, J. Q. A. Weller, Jacob Weikle, J. King, I. A. Rohland, D. M. Baumgardner, J. D. Dooner, M. L. Weaver, and J. J. Carmany, who is still serving. The society has 32 members, and a Sunday-school with 52 members, of which Mark B. Templin is superintendent. COAL-SHAFT. On section 35, in the summer of 1878, a coal-shaft was opened, 40 feet deep, with galleries extending therefrom towards the northeast and southwest. The vein is from two to three feet in thickness, and is called " No. 3." It yields an average of 65 tons of coal a day. Coke is manufactured from an upper vein, called " No. 4," ten ovens, each about 12 feet in diameter, having been provided for the purpose. These mines are owned by Henry Walter & Co., and are situated in a valley about half a mile north from Washingtonville. The coal is elevated by steam-power. ROADS. The road running north and south, nearly through the centre of the township, was laid out many years ago, and was known as the " New Lisbon Road." The roads follow in part the lines between the sections, but in most cases pass irrregularly through the sections. The " Ellsworth road" coincides with the west line of the township. NILES AND NEW LISBON RAILROAD. This road traverses the township in a general north-andsouth course, passing through the second tier of sections from the east. The stations are Loveland, Green Village, and Washingtonville. The road was finished in 1865, and furnishes the inhabitants of the township good facilities for travel and transportation. SMITH. SITUATION AND NATURAL FEATURES. THE township Smith is situated in the northwest corner of the territory embraced in this work, and is of range No. 5, township 18, north from the Ohio River. It is bounded north by Deerfield, in Portage County, and Berlin township, in Mahoning Co. ; east by Goshen, in Mahoning County ; south by Knox township, Columbiana Co. ; and west by Lexington, in Stark County. The general surface of the land is undulating, and in the northeastern part hilly, where the greatest elevation is attained. The centre, within a radius of two miles from the town-house, is the most depressed portion of the township, the land gradually rising as the township lines are approached. The township is drained by the Mahoning River and its tributaries. The Mahoning proper passes northwesterly across the southwest corner of the township, which it again enters on section 6, at the northwest corner, crossing it in a northeasterly direction. EARLY SETTLEMENT. Probably the first white man in Smith township, by whom any material improvements were made, was James Carter, from Pennsylvania, in the year 1803. His advent was entirely an accident. Carter having purchased' ands on what is known as the Western Reserve (of which the north line of Smith township forms part of the southern boundary), entered and cleared a portion, and built a log house on what he supposed to be his own lands. In the same year, William Smith purchased from the government section 3, containing 640 acres, and came with his family to occupy the same in 1804. On his arrival he found that Carter had by mistake built his house on his (Smith's) land. Smith paid Carter for the house and improvements he had made, who soon after left to occupy the lands he had in fact purchased. Although the first improvements were made by Carter in 1803, and the first house built by him at that time, yet the distinction of first permanent settlement properly belongs to William Smith and his family. William Smith was a native of Ireland, but came to Ohio from Pittsburgh, Pa., and brought to the township a family consisting of his wife Jane (Wilson) and seven children, viz. : Sally, who married Abram Hartzell, and died in 1875 ; James, who died in Oregon many years ago ; Nancy, who died at the age of eighteen ; Rachel, who married Amos McElroy, of Portage County, and died 1852 ; Mary (or Polly), who married Isaac Hartzell, and now lives at Alliance, Stark County ; Marjan, who died when a child ; and Jane, who married Simeon Card, and lives at North Benton. William Smith died in 1841, aged seventy-three years ; his wife died in 1845, aged seventy-two years. Both were interred in the family burying-ground on the hill, near the present village of North Benton. James C. Stanley, of Hanover County, Va., was one of the pioneers of Smith township, and probably the second settler. He came in the year 1805, and located on section 24, which he had purchased from the government, and which lies about four miles southeast of William Smith's section, in what was afterwards called the " Stanley neighborhood." He brought with him a wife and eight children, —Garland, James, Elizabeth, Nathaniel J., Littlebury, Lemuel, Jonathan, and Mary, who died soon after the family came to the township. Of this family all are now dead except Nathaniel J., who emigrated to Michigan in 1856, and is now-1879—eighty-five years of age. Jesse Stanley, the second son of James Stanley-, and grandson of the old pioneer, still lives where he was born in 1818, on a portion of the tract originally purchased from the government, this having been in the family nearly seventy-five years. The house built by the pioneer James C. was the second in the township, and the first south of the centre line. These were the pioneers and first settlers who had to undergo the hardships and adventures incident to pioneer life. No authentic information of any other early settlers prior to 1811 is obtainable, although there may have been some settlements by transient families or persons long since dead. In the year 1811, Edmund. oldest son of Thomas Stanley, of Hanover Co., Va., in company with John White (a colored family servant), came to Smith and built a log house in the eastern part of the township, preparatory to the coming of the family. Thomas Stanley arrived with his family in the spring of 1812. His children were John, who died in 1877; Elijah, who died in 1836; Frances, who married Isaac Votaw, and died about 1818 ; Edmund (who, with the servant, preceded the family several months), and who died in 1842 ; Millie, who married Joshua Crew, and who came with the Stanley family or a few weeks later. Joshua Crew died about the year 1845, after which his wife went to Iowa, where she died about 1868. These were the children of Thomas Stanley by his first wife. His second wife was Priscilla Ladd, and their children were Isaac, Thomas Binford, Sarah, who married Thomas Woolman, and Micajah. Micajah Stanley married Unity Coppack, by whom he had eight children. John Detchon, son of Oswell and Annie (Carr) Detchon, pioneers of Trumbull Co., Ohio, came to Smith in 1822. In 1824 he married Maria Hoadley, seventh child of Gideon Hoadley, by whom he had five children,—Hiram, Stow Sylvester, Sarah Ann, who married John Courtney ; Elizabeth, who married Brinton Hair ; and Mary, who became the wife of Addison Long. Hiram lives in Smith, His children are Wilmer H., Philip J., Annie M., and Henry M. - 308 - TOWNSHIP OF SMITH - 309 Gideon Hoadley, with his wife and children, settled in Smith in 1823. Their children were Harvey, Maria, Ebenezer, and Hiram. The family of Henry Hartzell settled in 1824, and resided in the township until 1844, at which time he removed to Pennsylvania, where he lived until 1853. He then returned to his present home near North Benton. The children by his first wife, Anna --(Sheets) Hartzell, were Simon, Mary, who married Christopher Bedell, and John. By his second wife, Jane (Smart) Hartzell, his children were Eli, James, Anna, who married Rev. David Waugh ; Lucy, who married John Ikard ; George ; and Sarah Jane, who died in infancy. In the year 1812, Levi Rakestraw and Rebecca (Bryan), his wife emigrated from Burlington Co., N. J., to Goshen township, Columbiana County (now Mahoning), where they lived until Nov. 10, 1825. They then moved to Smith township, and occupied the farm upon which they now reside. They were the parents of eight children, four sons and four daughters. Isaac, the oldest son, married Lydia Upton, and still lives in Smit,h ; Hannah married Isaac Vail, and died March 20, 1878 ; Sarah, who married Absalom Berringer, and is the mother of twelve children ; Benjamin, who lives in Defiance County ; Harold B., who lives in Seneca Co., Ohio ; Jane M., who married Sylvanus T. Young, and lives in Seneca County ; Elisha, who married Amy Cobb, and lives in Mahoning County ; Rebecca, who married Emor Lnpton, and lives in Mahoning County. Levi Rakestraw is in his ninety-fourth year, and is the oldest person in Smith township. Joseph Snode, with a wife and three children, came to Smith from their native State, New Jersey, in the year 1824. The children were Benjamin, who died in 1876, in Lexington, Stark Co. ; Mary, who married Richard Haines, and died in Smith township about 1873 ; and William, who now lives in Smith. He married Sarah Ann Haines, daughter of Joseph Haines, by whom he had eight children, viz.: Joseph, who died in 1865 ; George, now living at Beliot ; Emily, who married Jacob Phillips ; Jehial, Esther, Elizabeth, Charles, and Warner, all of whom live at home. Another of the early settlers, and one who has been closely identified with the civil and political growth of the township, is Benjamin Votaw, now .in the seventy-fourth year of his age. Mr. Votaw has had five sons, of whom Alfred C., the oldest, lives in Montana Territory ; Lewis T. lives in Logan Co., Ohio ; William died in service during the late war ; David lives in Kansas ; Andrew J. lives in Grand Rapids, Mich. Benjamin Votaw settled in Smith township in 1829, and operated the first saw-mill in the township, situated in section 2, on Island Creek, and built about 1823 by James Smith, son of Judge William Smith, the pioneer. Mr. Votaw operated this mill during the years 1825-27, before he permanently settled in the township. Samuel Oyster, one of the pioneers of the central part of Columbiana County, was the first settler in the western portion of Smith, located on section 31, in 1826. In his family were fourteen children, viz., John ; Barbara, who married James Hoiles ; Mary (or Polly), who married John Cobbs ; Samuel and Jacob, both of whom live in Stark County-; Moses, still living in Smith ; Henry, Silas, Solomon, Eli, who died in 1876 ; William, who died in infancy ; Joseph, Andrew, and Michael. The children of Moses are twelve,—Amos, Mary Ann, Hezekiah, Sarah Ellen, Emeline, Jacob, Melissa Jane, Edward P., George Cyrus, Ida Florence, Manuel, and Eli, who died at the age of two years. Among the old families of Columbiana County was that of Nathan Heacock, from Bucks Co., Pa., who settled near Salem in 1816. In 1825 he came to Smith, bringing a family of ten children, viz. : Amos, who died in 1841 ; Edwin, who lives in Smith ; Jane, who married Ezra Barton, and died in 1817 ; Asenath, who married Nathan Thomas, now living in Iowa; Milton, now residing in Oregon ; Barton, of Smith township ; Uriah Antrim, who died in 1854 ; Elias H., who was killed by accident in 1850 ; Enos, still living in Smith ; Josiah Wilson, who died in 1852 ; Tacy W., born in Smith township, who married Milton Coffee, and now lives in Williams Co., Ohio. The children of Edwin and Hannah (Barber) Heacock are Lewis, Dennis, Isaac, Nathan, Chalkley, Curtiss, Edgar, and Emerson, who was killed by accident. Enos married Ann Taylor, and had four children,—Jacob Taylor, who died in 1864, Addie, and Nathan Earnest. Barton's children are Melissa, Clarkson, Oliver, Rebecca, Jane, who died in 1876, Sarah A., who died in 1879, Isaac B., Antrim, Alice, who died, aged six years, Elvira, Leota, who died in infancy, and Edith. Peter Wise, from Pennsylvania, came to Smith in 1832, with a large family, only two of whom are now living in the township, viz. : Pusey, and Elizabeth, who married George Martin. The children of Pusey are Franklin, Hannah, Charles, and Cora. In 1810, James Cattell, of New Jersey, settled in Goshen township. In 1833 he removed to Smith, where he died in 1860. His son, Ezra, married Henrietta Stanley, daughter of Thomas Stanley, and lives on section 26. Solomon Hartzell, whose parents were pioneers of what is known as the " Western Reserve," settled in Smith in 1835. Jacob Paxson, of Chester Co., Pa., settled in Butler in 1815. His daughter Annie married Hoopes Bailey, and removed to Smith in 1833. Their family consisted of five sons,—Howard H., Edward P., William Penn, Oakley H., and Francis C. Job Lamborn, of Delaware, settled in Smith in 1834. He had a family of six children,—Thomas E. ; Philena, who married Milton Taylor ; William ; Elizabeth, who married Parker Morris; Susan ; and Edward H. James M. Dobson, an old settler of Columbiana County, came to Smith in 1833 with a wife and one child, John. The other children, born in the township, are Elizabeth, who married Elisha Smather ; Thomas ; Martha, who married Isaac Grant ; Jane, who married William J. Adams ; Henry ; Margaret, who married Dennis Charlton ; Cynthia, who married Parker Calvin ; and James K. The children of John and Mary (Adams) Dobson are Hugh, who died in 1876, and David. Among the pioneer families of Columbiana County was that of Christian Sheets, a native of Maryland. He settled in Unity township as early as 1804. In 1805 he removed 310 - TOWNSHIP OF SMITH. to Butler, where he lived until the time of his death, in 1828. In 1817, Jacob Sheets, his son, married Elizabeth Hartzell, by whom he had eight children. This family came to Smith in 1859, where Jacob still lives, aged eighty-four years. George Atkinson was a resident of Goshen township in 1816. William Atkinson, one of his sons, became a resident of Smith in about 1854. He died in or near the year 1867, leaving a family, who reside on the old farm, on section 12. William Johnston, of Pennsylvania, settled in Smith in about the year 1834 ; died in 1877. His children were Andrew, Eliza, Sophia Ann, Mary, Sally, Morris, William, and Ella. Hugh Wright, son of Joseph Wright, who settled near Salem in 1802, came to Smith in 1840. He married Rachel T., daughter of Joseph Broomall. They were the parents of five children, Joseph B., Sarah A., Jacob, Rachel K, and James T. John Thompson, a native of Sweden, and an early settler of Washington township, where he lived many years, came to Smith in 1860. He married Mercy Wilkinson, by whom he had nine children, Martha, Marcy, Samuel, Amos W., Rebecca, Thomas B., Olivia, Louisa, and John J. In the foregoing early settlement history it has been the endeavor to give a correct record of the pioneer families of Smith township as far as could be obtained. There were families among the early settlers whose history is not recorded. Of these some are dead, others have left the township, and no authentic record of the date of their settlement, death, or departure can be obtained. On information from the oldest living residents, the names of many have been obtained as follows : Mathias Hollowpeter, Jonathan Hoope, John Cowgill, the Cobbs, Hugh Packer, John Trago, Abram Haines, Leonard Reed, Abram and Samuel Miller, Adam McGowan, William Matthews, John Hillerman, Amos Allerton, John Schaffer. These were probably settled in the township prior to 1830 ; yet it is possible that some were later, as in 1828 there were but twenty-three voters in the township. ORGANIZATION. Smith township was organized at a meeting of the county commissioners in the month of March, 1821, upon the petition of Judge William Smith, one of its pioneers, in honor of whom it was named. The books of the township, containing records of the first meetings and of the election of the first officers, are lost or destroyed. Notice of the organization was found in the old commissioners' journal. James C. Stanley was probably clerk of the first town-meeting. The existing records begin with the year 1863, since which date the following persons have been elected to the offices of clerk, treasurer, and assessor : CLERKS. Harper Brosius, 1863; Jesse Stanley, 1864; T. E. Lamborn, 186567; T. L. Brosius, 1868; A. C. Johnson, 1869-42; William C. Whorton, 1873; W. C. Whorton, Jr., 1874; James C. Stanley, 1875; R. C. Young, 1876-77; I. Height, 1878-79. TREASURERS. Stephen Miller, 1863-73; Joshua Cassiday, 1874-75; D. L. Santee, 1876-79. ASSESSORS. D. E. Hazen, 1863; L. A. Fording, 1864; Calvin Reed, 1865-67; E.

The village of North Benton was surveyed and laid out on the 27th and 28th days of March, 1834, under the proprietorship of William Smith, Dr. John Dellenbaugh, and James Smith. The map or plat was recorded March 31, 1834. Although not until then formally laid out, yet as early as the year 1830 a number of buildings had been erected, and the village was a general gathering-place for the people in that vicinity. North Benton was named in honor of Thomas Benton, a " hard-money" Democrat of the time, who had many friends and admirers in that community. " North" was prefixed in order to distinguish it from another place of that name. The first hotel was built in 1832 by one Fitch, and called the " Benton Exchange." It is now in possession of Zechariah Bertolette. The village has a population of about 250, comprising about seventy families, and has two churches, a school, several stores, and business interests of various kinds. WESTVILLE. In the year 1831 the town or village of Westville was named and partially laid out, under the proprietorship of Aaron Coppack, and then was composed of a portion of sections 35 and 36. The map was recorded September 27th of the same year. In 1835 an addition was made, and portions of sections 1 and 2 of Knox township included within the village limits. This was done under the direction of Aaron Coppack, Samuel Coppack, Joseph Cobbs, and Edward Randolph, proprietors. The plat was recorded Oct. 15, 1835. The village continued to grow until about 1850, and became a convenient trading centre, having a saw-mill on section 35 and a general country store: Since that time there has been no material increase in population. BELOIT. This hamlet, although never regularly laid out or incorporated as a village, is indebted for its existence to the building of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, in the years 1848-49. It was originally called " Smithfield Station," and a post-office established there under that name. In about 1863 the name was changed to Beloit, there being then another Springfield village in the State. Within the limits of what may properly be called Beloit are a church, saw-mill, two stores, a wagon-manufactory, and a blacksmith-shop. The village has a population of about 150. EAST ALLIANCE. East Alliance, as it is called, is but one of the suburbs of Alliance, Stark Co., resulting from the growth of the latter place. In 1879, East Alliance was made the second election district of Smith township. ECCLESIASTICAL. The first church built in Smith township was the Friends' meeting-house, on section 34, in the year 1829. Religious TOWNSHIP OF SMITH - 311 exercises were conducted by ministers of different denominations at a much earlier period, but at irregular intervals and in various places, in Smith and adjoining townships, the people not being able to maintain separate organizations. General services without regard to religious preference were occasionally held, but until the erection of the Friends' meeting-house no regular church society had been organized in the township. SOCIETY OF FRIENDS. Thomas Dixon and Rebecca his wife, in consideration of the sum of $8, conveyed to Charles Armitage, Nathan Heacock, and Edward Courtney, " on behalf of the Society of Friends of West Preparative Meeting, a branch of Salem Monthly Meeting," a parcel of land in the south part of the township, for the purpose of building and occupying a meeting-house and school-house and for a burying-ground. The deed was dated Aug. 23, 1830. Nearly a year after, the building was erected, the society occupying under an agreement prior to the deed. The Friends never erected a separate school-building, as mentioned in the deed, but occupied the meeting-house for school purposes. The school was taught by Hannah Courtney. The cemetery in connection with the meeting-house was laid out about 1830, and, although called the " Friends' Burying-Ground," never was used by them exclusively. The first person interred there was Hannah Trago, who died in 1831. METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, NORTH BENTON. The church edifice of this society was built in the year 1840. The first trustees were George Smith, John Detchon, James Carter, and Simeon Card. George Smith was the class-leader ; Rev. Martin Weakley, a " circuit-rider," was the first minister. He was succeeded by Rev. Gideon Kennier. Revs. John Murray, Hosea McCall, and James Rogers each preached two years on this circuit in the order given. PRESBYTERIAN CONGREGATION. This church was organized in Deerfield township, Portage Co., as early as 1818, under the name of the " Presbyterian Congregation of Deerfield." The first minister was the Rev. Joshua Beer, of the Hartford, Conn., Presbytery. The first pastor was Rev. William 0. Stratton, who was installed in 1843. In 1850, a new church was built in Smith, near ,North Benton, to which the society moved, holding the first meeting in 1851. Mr. Stratton continued pastor until 1865. In 1866 Rev. William Dixon was installed, and remained nearly ten years, when he was succeeded by Rev. Mr. Shirock. The present pastor is Rev. Dallas B. Mays. In connection with the church is a burying-ground of about three acres, laid out in 1852. PRESBYTERIAN SOCIETY: This society is practically a branch of the " Presbyterian Congregation," by whom it is controlled. Their house of worship was erected in 1859, on section 26, as a free church, to be, used by all denominations, the land for the purpose having been donated by Miles Marzilla. At completion the property was encumbered with a debt, which the subscriptions were not sufficient to liquidate, and was sold in 1870 to the Presbyterian Society. The society was organized by Revs. William Dixon, J. B. Miller, and Elder Solomon Hartzell. Rev. William Miller was pastor until succeeded by Rev. D. B. May, the present minister. SCHOOLS. On account of the loss of the records of Smith township, no accurate history of its early school districts can be given. The first school of the township was taught in an old log house, on the site of North Benton. This house was built in 1806, by James Smith, son of the pioneer Wm. Smith. The name of the first teacher is not known, but Margaret Davis taught the school at a very early day. The second school-house was erected in the Stanley neighborhood, in about 1812. The township was originally divided into four districts ; but, as it increased in population, these districts were frequently subdivided to meet the wants of the people. The districts are now ten in number, but the centre district has not been used for school purposes since 1870. The schools of Smith are among the best in the county, and are under the charge of the district supervisors. Section 16, reserved to the township for educational purposes, has been sold, and the proceeds used in permanent improvements on school property. The annual expense for maintenance is nearly $2500 per annum. INDUSTRIES. The chief occupation of the people of Smith township is farming and stock-raising. The excellent grazing and pasture lands have, however, led to the establishment of several cheese-manufactories. These are four in number, the principal of which is on " Beech Ridge," so called, in the easterly part of the township, and is owned by John Stanley. A saw- and flour-mill at Westville, owned and operated by Somers & Co. ; and three saw-mills, one at Beloit, owned by Samuel P. Coppack ; one on section 13, owned by Joshua Reeves ; and one on section 20, owned by George W. Martin, comprise the special manufacturing interests of the township. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. JAMES M. DOBSON. James M. Dobson was born in Alleghany Co., Pa., on the waters of Chartier's Creek, about ten miles from Pittsburgh, March 27, 1807. Mrs. Dobson was born in the same State, Nov. 19, 1807. Mr. Dobson emigrated from there to Ohio in the early part of his life, and settled in Columbiana County, and commenced life for himself by purchasing a farm. This farm had but little improvement on it, but Mr. Dobson went to work, as all early settlers did who found a home here, to improve his place, clearing, burning brush, log-rolling, and building. He married Margaret, daughter of John and Martha Bevingston. Eleven children were born of this union, six boys and five girls, viz. : John, Elizabeth, Thomas, Martha, Jane, Henry B., Margaret, Cynthia, James K., Robert (deceased), and Joseph 312 - TOWNSHIP OF SMITH. (deceased). They are living in Ohio, with the exception of Martha, who resides in Michigan. James M. Dobson came from Columbiana County to Smith township, Mahoning Co., about 1833, where he bought a farm of seventy acres. By hard labor and strict economy he added from time to time to this farm, until he owned one hundredand forty acres. He managed his farm during his entire life-time. At his death he left this land to be divided among his children, giving to John two shares, and leasing him the farm for five years at one hundred dollars per year. John lived at home with his father twenty-five years after his majority, working and receiving no equivalent above his support. Mr. and Mrs. Dobson were Presbyterians, and of Scotch and Irish descent. Mr. Dobson's education was limited ; he attended school just long enough to be able to read and write. He was a truly kind and indulgent man in his family, and in his intercourse with all true and friendly. As he had lived peaceably and quietly, so MRS. JAMES M. DOBSON. peaceably and quietly he passed away, departing this life Jan. 6, 1879, leaving a reputation for honesty and upright dealings. Mrs. James Dobson died Dec. 22, 1875. The portraits of Mr. and Mrs. James Dobson are inserted in this work by their son, John, as a tribute of respect to their memory. WILLIAM JOHNSTON. William Johnston was a native of Beaver Co., Pa., and was born on the 20th of May, 1809. In the year 1843 he left his native county and came with his family to Smith township, Columbiana Co., now Mahoning Co. He there settled on a farm which he had bought three years before moving to this State. In the month of March, 1834, he was united in marriage with Phoebe, daughter of John and Sophia Morris. Mr. Johnston's family consisted of eight children, viz. : A. C., Sophia A., Mary W., J. M., E. J., Sarah, William F., and P. S. Three of the children are deceased. Sophia A. died Oct. 19, 1840 ; Mary W. died Feb. 13, 1842 ; J. W. was killed at Stone River Dec. 31, 1862. Mr. Johnston bought his farm with but little improvement on it, there being at the time only a hewed-log house. As soon as he could get to work he commenced the improvement of his place, and before the end of the first year he had erected a large frame house, a view of which can be seen on another page of this work. Mr. Johnston filled offices of trust both in the township and county in which he lived, having been commissioner of the county for six years. He ever discharged the duties of these trusts to the entire satisfaction of the people. He always took a lively interest in all public affairs. Mr. Johnston died Feb. 4, 1877. Mrs. Johnston is still living with her youngest son, Wm. F. Johnston, on the farm first settled by the father. This sketch, also the portraits of his father and mother, are inserted by Wm. F. Johnston. MOSES OYSTER. Moses Oyster was born in Columbiana County, Feb. 4, 1822. He and his wife are both of German descent. His father, Samuel Oyster, was born in the State of Pennsylvania. Mr. Samuel Oyster was a very energetic, hard-working man. During his life he purchased one thousand and fifty acres of land which he divided among his children, giving to each eighty acres. His death occurred in 1847 ; his wife died in 1836. Moses Oyster received an ordinary English education in the common schools of this State, engaging much of the time in manual labor. His first purchase was sixty acres of land in Smith township, Columbiana (now Mahoning) County. He owned this farm TOWNSHIP OF SMITH - 313 about ten years. Selling it to his brother Eli, he again bought sixty-six acres in the same township ; on this farm he now lives; he has since added to this until he now has a fine farm of one hundred and thirty-five acres. When Mr. Oyster first commenced life for himself he worked at such work as he could at that early day find to do, farming and ditching for his neighbors when they needed help, working for the sum of fifty cents a day. In the year 1845, June the 19th, he married Elizabeth, daughter of George and Mary Kimes ; they have had a family of twelve children. On the 20th day of October 1852. death entered the family circle and removed one of the children. Few families can surround the hearthstone and not find some " vacant chair." In religion, Mr. Oyster is a liberal, believing the highest type of Christianity and the truest religion consists in doing right. His wife is a member of the Disciples church, which he attends. He is in politics a Republican. It is the earnest wish of the many friends of Mr. Oyster that he may live long to enjoy the many comforts and blessings of life, well earned by upright industry and honest dealings. J. J. THOMPSON was born in Washington township, Columbiana Co., Sept. 23, 1843. John Thompson was brought up on his father's farm, where he remained until he was twenty-seven years old. During this time he availed himself of such 40 MRS. J. J. THOMPSON. advantages of education as his neighboring school then provided ; being desirous of having a good education, he spent much time outside of school with his books, and by this application secured a fair English education. J. J. Thompson was thoroughly trained in farm work, 314 - TOWNSHIP OF SMITH. and, preferring this to any other business, he now owns and lives on the farm formerly owned by his father. A representation of this home, as also portraits of his father, mother, wife, and himself, may be seen in this work. May 5, 1870, Mr. J. J. Thompson married Mary J., daughter of John and Phoebe Armstrong. They have two children,—John B. and Hallie 0. Mr. Thompson and his amiable wife are now in possession of a pleasant home and many friends, which they fully appreciate and enjoy. They are in the full vigor of life, and we hope they may have many years of usefulness before them. NATHAN HEACOCK was born in Rockhill township, Bucks Co , Pa., April 16, 1783. He was the son of Jeremiah and Sarah Heacock. Jonathan, the grandfather of Jeremiah, emigrated from Staffordshire, England, to America about the year 1711, and settled in Chester, Delaware Co., Pa. He and his wife, Ann, brought with them from England a certificate of their rights of membership in the Society of Friends, which has been continued in a direct line to the present generation. William, the son of Jonathan, was born in Marple, Chester Co., Pa., Jan. 13, 1716. He subsequently settled in Rock-hill township, Bucks Co., Pa., where he married Ann Roberts, a lady of Welsh descent. He and his son, Jeremiah, were both millwrights, and were owners of a saw- and gristmill in Bucks County. Sarah Heacock, the mother of Nathan, was the daughter of James and Ann Morgan, also of Welsh descent. Her father, while on the road with his team, was forced into the service of Gen. Braddock, and was at Fort Duquesne (now Pittsburgh) at the time of the memorable defeat of the British in 1755. About the year 1790, Nathan's father, Jeremiah Heacock, sold his property in Bucks Co., Pa., and removed to Northampton Co., Pa., where he remained some seven years. In that rough backwoods region was the boyhood of Nathan spent. His father, Jeremiah, died Jan. 1, 1797, in the fifty-eighth year of his age. This event produced an entire change in the course of his son, whose career we are briefly depicting. With a brother younger than himself he went on foot forty miles from their late residence to the neighborhood of his grandfather's place, in Richland township, Bucks Co., Pa. Remaining in the family of Joseph Custard for three years, he was apprenticed to John Trumbower to learn the wagon-maker's trade. Sept. 9, 1806, he married Dinah Dennis, daughter of Amos and Jane Dennis, and settled with her mother, who was a widow, in Richland township, Pa. In 1813, he removed to Columbia Co., Pa. ; but three years later he came to Ohio, and settled in Goshen township, Columbiana (now Mahoning) Co., about two miles northwest of Salem. Here for several years he battled with the forest, and by perseverance and frugality earned a living, but his limited means becoming involved, in 1821 he sold his farm and sought another location " farther in the woods." At the Steubenville land-office he "entered" the southwest quarter of section 28, in Smith township, Columbiana (now Mahoning) Co. The parchment deed, which gave him title to this tract, was signed by President James Monroe, and is now in the possession of his son, who retains the old home. This land was in what was then known as the " beech woods," and was considered by the early residents as scarcely worth possessing. But good cultivation and careful management have made it one of the finest farms in the county. The following incident, which occurred at the time of their removal to their new and forest home, will illustrate some of the hardships of the pioneers : Nathan and his two eldest sons went the first of the week to their place to chop, taking a week's provisions with them ; the early summer weather, warm and showery, caused their bread to mould, and to make their allowance hold out the allotted time they concluded to eat the worst portions first. As it moulded as fast as they consumed it, their fare consisted of mouldy bread through the entire week. When ready to return home, they went to the house of their only neighbor, Daniel Barton, a mile distant, to get a meal to sustain their strength for an eight-mile walk. And the good wife gave them plentifully of corn-cake. Mr. Heacock often remarked that he thought this was one of the best meals he ever ate. After building his log cabin, he moved his family to the wilderness home April 3, 1825. By diligent labor they soon had a comfortable home. Mr. Heacock was one of the few who, in 1829, erected a building and opened a Friends' meeting (Hicksite) two miles south of the centre of Smith township. His family consisted of eleven children,—eight sons and three daughters,—namely : Jane D., born in Bucks Co., Pa., Aug. 12, 1812 ; married Ezra Barton, 1832 ; died January, 1837. Edwin, born in Bucks County, April 19, 1811 ; married Hannah Barber; 1836 ; is a farmer, located near his father's place. Milton, born at Fishing Creek, Pa., Dec. 23, 1815 ; is a carpenter by trade, and built the house shown in the illustration of Mr. Heacoek's farm ; was twice married,—to Rebecca Thomas, 1838 (deceased), and Hannibah Passmore, 1846 ; he now resides in Oregon. Barton, born in Goshen township, Columbiana Co., Ohio, Jan. 13, 1818 ; married Rachel Barber, 1839 ; a farmer. Asenath, born at Fishing Creek, Pa., June 26, 1814 ; married Nathaniel Thomas, 1841 ; at present living in Iowa. Amos D., born in Bucks Co., Pa., Oct. 27, 1808 ; died at his father's house, in Columbia naCo., Ohio, Nov. 18, 1841. Uriah A., born in Goshen township, Columbiana Co., Ohio, June 14, 1819; married Sarah Barber, 1843 ; died May, 1854. Elias H., born in Goshen township, Jan. 6, 1821 ; married Eliza T. Thomas in 1843, and settled on his father's place ; was killed, by being thrown from a wagon, January, 1850. Josiah W., born in Goshen township, July 8, 1824 ; died January, 1852. Tacy, their third daughter and youngest child, was born in Smith township, Mahoning Co., Ohio, April 22, 1827 ; married Milton Coffee, 1852, and now resides in Williams Co., Ohio. Enos Heacock, the present proprietor of the old homestead, and son of Nathan and Dinah Heacock, was born in Goshen township, Mahoning Co., Ohio, Sept. 5, 1822. When he was three years old his parents removed to the neighboring township of Smith. His opportunities for obtaining book-knowledge were limited ; but, growing up TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD - 315 in the midst of the forest, he became a great lover of nature. In 1830 the first school was established in his neighborhood, and this he attended. At the age of ten he went to live with a married sister, in Lexington township, Stark Co., Ohio, and while residing there witnessed the remarkable meteoric shower of the fall of 1833. In 1835 he returned to his father's house, and thenceforward was a diligent laborer on the farm, in the days when scythe and flail held sway, and before reapers and mowers had won the field. In 1851 he obtained, partly by purchase and partly by bequeathment, a portion of his father's land, and thus became possessed of the old homestead. In that year the Ohio and Pennsylvania (since merged into the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago) Railroad was opened through his farm. He was married Sept. 30, 1852, to Ann Taylor, daughter of Jacob and Anna Taylor, of Chester Co., Pa. To them were born three children,—Jacob T., Nov. 11, 1854 ; Addie, June 27, 1860 ; and Nathan E., Aug. 21, 1866 ; the former deceased 1864. Addie was married May 1, 1879, to William Tombaugh. Dinah Heacock, mother of Enos, died from a stroke of palsy, Jan. 29, 1854. His father, Nathan, departed this life in 1866, the 26th day of the sixth month, in the eighty-fourth year of his age. SPRINGFIELD THIS township formed the northeastern part of the original Columbiana County. It is bounded on the north by the south line of the Western reserve; on the east by the State of Pennsylvania ; on the south by the township of Unity, now the northeast part of the county ; and on th west by the township of Beaver. It is designated in the government survey as town 9, in range 1. It was one of the oldest townships in the county, having been organized for civil purposes in 1803. In 1846 Springfield was attached to Mahoning County, and has since been a political division of that body, its later history, consequently, not being intimately connected with Columbiana County. The general surface of the township is broken by hills of moderate height, between which are intervals and lowlands, originally somewhat swampy. The whole township was covered with a fine growth of the common woods, and a liberal supply of timber yet remains. Building-stone may be obtained in various localities, and coal is unusually abundant. The principal streams are Honey Creek and several small brooks, flowing southeast from the central and the western parts of the township ; and the Little Yellow Creek in the northwest, having a northerly course. Numerous springs abound, and the natural drainage is generally sufficient to afford an arable surface. The soil varies from a sandy loam to a heavy clay, along the streams being more or less of an alluvium. The whole is fertile and well adapted to the products of mixed husbandry. The people are chiefly engaged in agriculture. PIONEER SETTLERS. The early history of Springfield is somewhat obscure. None of the original settlers remain, and what little recorded history they had has been destroyed. The recollections of the descendants of those who came to the township as pioneers are not clear, and their statements concerning that period are contradictory. It appears, however, that the township was permanently settled about 1801, and that Peter Musser was the first to establish himself in what is now Springfield. He came from York Co., Pa., and having considerable means purchased the four sections in the southeast corner of the township, living a little north of the present village of Petersburgh. Here he built small grist- and saw-mills, and made other desirable improvements. He died in 1808, leaving a family of four sons and two daughters. The oldest son, John, succeeded to the mill property, but after a. few years removed to Missouri. Peter was the proprietor of the village site, and the founder of Petersburgh. He removed to the northern part of the State. The third son, Jacob, lived in the village, selling there the first goods. He enlisted in the army in 1812, and afterwards in the regular army of the United States, serving as drum-major ; he finally settled in Missouri. His son Jacob now lives in Petersburgh, and is one of its oldest citizens. One of Musser's daughters was married to Israel Warner, who came with his father-in-law in 1801, and settled on the farm now occupied by his son Ellis. Other sons of Warner were John, George, Peter, David, Israel, William, and Jacob. Some of these yet live in Springfield and the adjoining towns. Israel Warner was a captain in 1812. The other daughter of Musser married Jacob Rudisill, and lived north of the Warner homestead. In later years, among the prominent settlers on the Musser purchase were John Maurer, on the farm now occupied by his son, William, the only member of the family living here. He had, also, sons named Jacob, John, and Moses. James Wallace was one of the first and foremost settlers, and is yet well remembered as a merchant. Having been elected judge of Mahoning County, he removed to Canfield. To that place, also, removed Hosea Hoover, one of Petersburgh's early settlers, who was elected county treasurer. On the farm now occupied by C. B. Wilson, John Pontius was the original settler, and was followed by his son, John. East of the village, on the farm yet occupied by his family, Henry Miller settled at an early day ; and north o 316 - TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD. this place the Rock, Beight, and Dressel families may be regarded as among the first settlers. In the western part of the township, Daniel Miller, from Adams Co., Pa., was the earliest settler, coming in 1802, and settling on section 18. His oldest son, Henry, aged ninety-one years, is yet living on section 30. His brothers, Jacob and John, are among the oldest citizens in the northern part of the township. South from Miller, the same year, settled C. Seidner and his son-in-law, C. Mentzer, coming from Hagerstown ; and a few years later there were added to the settlers here Jacob Shaefer, sometimes called Doctor, and George Macklin. Descendants of the latter yet live in that locality. Other early settlers here were Jacob Christ, John May, Hugh Chain, John Robinson, and Peter Shreiver. The latter joined the community at Economy, Pa. Section 6 was settled the latter part of 1801, by Adam Hahn, who soon after put up a saw-mill there. He had sons named Adam, Andrew, and Peter. On section 4 George Stump, with his sons, George, Henry, Abraham, and John, settled before 1803 ; and on the intervening section, No. 5, John Summers, of York Co., Pa., made a settlement in 1802. His sons attaining mature age were Samuel, Jacob, Daniel, David, Joseph, John, and Solomon. Some of his grandchildren yet live on this section. In April, 1806, George Elser, one of Summers' sons-in-law, came from Lancaster, Pa., with a family of three sons, John, George, and Jacob, and settled on the northeast quarter of this section, where he died in 1847. The son George yet resides in Springfield. Jacob removed to Columbiana, and the oldest, John, settled on the northwest quarter of section 25, in Beaver township, in 1827, where he yet lives, a hale man, at the age of eighty-one years. In the northeastern part of the township the early settlers were John Shoemaker, about 1804 ; Henry Myers, on section 12, in 1803 ; Peter and Henry Raub and Peter Benedict on section 11 about the same time ; and here were, also, bee 1806, men named Empie, Taylor, Barnard, Parsons, and Messerly. In the neighborhood of New Middleton were the Burkey, Kuhn, Schillinger, Gray, Cublin, and Schiller families, some time before 1810 ; and after that period Joshua Hahn, Simon Martin, the Welker, Beard, and Ilgenfritz families took place among the prominent settlers. Immigration was so great from 1805 to 1815, that it is impossible to gather up the names of all who became pioneers in Springfield. Many came with small means, and having accumulated a little more property, after a few years followed the Star of Empire in its westward course, and, in many instances, all remembrance of them, as former citizens of the township, has passed away. CIVIL LIST. The records of the township from its organization—in 1803—until 1868, a period of sixty-five years, have been destroyed or mislaid, making the compilation of an accurate civil list an impossibility, and necessitating the omission here of much valuable matter which can be obtained from no other source. Since the last-mentioned period the principal officers have been the following : TRUSTEES. 1868.—John H. Miller, John P. Sonnendecker, George Leibert. 1869.—Israel Schiller, George Miller, Thomas McCullough. 1870.—Samuel H. Hahn, George Miller, Solomon Gleckler. 1871.—Wilson S. Hadley, George Miller, Gottlieb Lipp. 1872.—John Peters, Gottlieb Geiger, Gottlieb Lipp. 1873.—L. H. Ruhlman, Gottlieb Geiger, Hiram Macklin. 1874.— L. H. Ruhlman, John H. Miller, Hiram Macklin. 1875.—John C. Lower, John H. Miller, Gottlieb Dressell. 1876.—Samuel H. Hahn, W. S. Hadley, Gottlieb Dressell. 1877.—John Showalter, Daniel Peters, John Hoffmaster. 1878.—Christian Marks, Daniel Peters, John Hoffmaster. 1879.—Christian Marks, Solomon Ernst, Thomas McCullough. CLERKS. 1868-69, J. G. Justice; 1870-71, George W. Penn; 1872-74, Perry L. Musser; 1875-77, Christian Beck; 1878, Jonathan Hoffman; 1879, Henry Sider. TREASURERS. 1868-69, John Brungard; 1870-71, David Houk; 1872-74, Solomon Ernst; 1875-77, Reuben Lipp; 1878-79, J. F. Miller. THE COAL INTERESTS of the township deserve a brief mention. Although that valuable mineral generally abounds, but little effort has been made to develop its riches outside of the territory, along the Little Yellow Creek, in the northwest part of the township. East of that stream mining is carried on to some extent on the Ruhlman, Kurtz, and Heine farms, but the principal product is on the west side, and chiefly on section 7. Here are in successful operation three mines, whose united product is about 2500 tons per year. The Summers family was one of the first to engage in mining,—some time about 1845. The oldest mine is at present worked by J. W. Heindle. His coal is elevated by means of a shaft and horse-power. Farther down the gulley Solomon Paulin carries on horizontal mining, and directly south from him is Jeremiah Brown's mine. This was first opened in 1847 by Daniel Summers, and more thoroughly operated by Wm. Cook and Solomon Paulin at a later day. Since 1873 the present owner has carried on the business of mining, employing about five hands. The vein is about four feet thick, one-third of the quantity being excellent cannel coal. He has a horizontal main entry 400 yards long, and four side entries from 50 to 100 yards in extent. INSURANCE COMPANY. THE SPRINGFIELD AND ADJOINING TOWNSHIPS MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY was organized in the spring of 1857, with about 200 members and the following officers : President, John Warner ; Secretary, J. Geo. Bacher ; Treasurer, George Smith ; Directors, Jacob Cublin, Jr., Adam Harmon, John Warner. The company has carried on its business successfully for twenty-two years, and at present has in force 930 policies, representing about $1,500,000 of insurance on farm property and detached buildings.

The oldest and most important village in the township is located chiefly on section 36. It was founded before 1810 by Peter Musser, and from him received its name. PETERSBURGH. As the growth of the place demanded, village lots were platted as additions to the original survey by Bean and others. At present it has a number of stores, hotels, a good school-house, three churches, and about 500 inhabitants. It is said that Jacob Musser sold the first goods in the place, in the building which is now the J. P. Swisher residence, which is the oldest frame house in Petersburgh. James Wallace opened a store where is now the post-office building, and was the first to engage regularly in trade, some time about 1815. He converted that house into a hotel, and opened a store on the north side of the street, where he was in trade about thirty years. W. C. Dunlap was a contemporary merchant at the stand now occupied by Lipp & Miller, but first had a store where is now S. Ernst's residence. Among the principal merchants that followed them were Robert Forbus, Spaeth & Swisher, J. G. Lesslie, 0. H. P. Swisher, David and John Shearer, James Mathews, Ernst & Hahn, Hoover & Seidner, etc. The place has three excellent general stores, kept by Lipp Bros. and Miller, Ernst & Son, and Henry Myers. Drugs have been sold by Shotwell, King, Swisher, Wallace, and at present by G. & J. Schiller. Since 1835 Jacob Musser has carried on the furniture business. W. A. Cozard dealt in harness, and R. Schnabel in boots and shoes. The post-office here was first established with the name of Musser's Mill, and had, in 1811, John Musser for postmaster. It subsequently received the present name (that of the village), and has had the following officials : Peter Musser, Frederick Spaeth, Col. James Miller, Martha Miller, 0. H. P. Swisher, Robt. Wallace, C. C. Swisher, Lewis Sholl, Gideon Schiller, George Herr, T. S. Guy, and, in 1879, Henry Myers. The office is on the route from Enon, Pa., to Youngstown, and has two mails per day. As near as can be determined Dr. Luther Spellman was the first permanent physician located in the village. Dr. B. F. Adams died in the place. Others in practice were Doctors Jehu Stough, John D. Coffin, John Wise, John McCook, and Ferdinand Casper. At present there are Philip H. Swisher,--since 1828,—George W. Pettit, and P. W. Welker as practitioners. Richard Smith was here as an attorney a short time. Jacob Musser was the justice from 1845 till 1875 ; and Wm. F. Stoll is the present magistrate. The first public-house was kept by Peter Musser, on his farm, now owned by A. Kneasel ; the next was kept in the J. P. Swisher residence, by Kinneman, Douglas, Pontius, and others. James Wallace was for many years a well-known landlord. Messrs. Boyd, Keith, and Fitch there followed in the business. Where is now the " Lochiel House," kept by George S. Veow, Henry Kale opened a public-house, and was succeeded by Messrs. Kelley, Mathews, Conrad, and by George Kneasel, who changed the house to its present comfortable condition. As early as 1803, Peter Musser got in operation saw- and grist-mills, a little north of the village, on the site of the present old mill. John Musser, John Pontius, and D. Whitmeyer were among the subsequent owners. The latter removed to Pittsburgh, where he became a famous miller. Maury & Edler were the last to operate the mill. The building was used for a cheese-factory in 1878, but is now idle, the power of Honey Creek here being insufficient to operate machinery advantageously. On the stream below, near the State line, about 1825, John Miller put up a grist-mill, which was operated by him and his family until a few years ago, employing in the last stages of its existence both water- and steam-power. Between these sit es John Musser put up a sawmill, which was operated until about 1860. In 1874 a steam flouring-mill, having three runs of stones, was erected near the centre of the village by Maurer & Edler Bros., and is now operated by Welker & Shaefer, and has a large patronage. About 1870 a steam saw-mill was gotten in operation, west of the village, by Ernst & Ranch, and is yet operated by Rauch & Unger ; and in the village a saw-mill, planer, and machines for making bent-work, were gotten in operation in 1875 by Failer Bros. & Miller. The foundry here was established before 1870 by R. C. Bean, and is now carried on by Reinhard, Robbinreath & Sons in the manufacture of plows, light castings, and in repair work. The village has two tanneries, both employing steam-power, which thoroughly dress and finish all kinds of leather, except sole. The oldest in the early history of the place was first carried on by John Embrie. Subsequent proprietors were Peter Fusselman, James Wallace, Seeger, Houser, Auer, and Beidler & Sons. Rudolph Brenchle is the owner of the other tannery. It has also been carried on by Robert Forbus and Wm. Cunningham. Carriage-shops are carried on by W. F. Stoll and the Witter Brothers. The place has also the usual mechanic-shops, and its united interests give it a busy appearance. NEW SPRINGFIELD is a village of about 350 inhabitants, and has a pleasant location in the southern part of section 29. It was founded some time before 1825 by Abraham Christ, who platted twenty-eight lots around the present square or " diamond." To this additions have been made by Jacob Fulgerson, Christian Harker, John Wagner, and David Spitler, and the village now spreads over a considerable area. There are two churches, a good school-house, and the interests detailed below. 318 - TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD. Joseph Davis opened the first store in a building near Shale's distillery. On the square, Thomas Knight erected a building for a store about 1828, which he conducted about twenty years. Nicholas Eckes, Jacob Spaeth, William May, Wm. Phillips, Schillinger & Ruckenbrod, Eckert & Peters, Tobias Elser, George Smith, and George Slutter are among those who have been here actively engaged in trade. The present merchant is John Tritt, who also holds the office of postmaster. The office has also been held by Nicholas Eckes, George Smith, S. F. Hadley, John Peters, Tobias Elser, and George Slutter. A daily mail from Columbiana is provided. Among the keepers of public-houses are remembered John Peters, William May, S. F. Hadley, Joseph Thompson, and a few others who sometimes entertained travelers without having regular inns. The first practicing physician was Dr. Louis Zeigler ; the present are Drs. William Stafford and R. E. Warner. Doctors A. King, Dustin, Hamilton, and Heinman have practiced in the place. Hiram Macklin is the only lawyer practicing in the village. Among the ministers originating from this locality have been the Revs. Isaiah, Eli, and Aaron Miller, sons of George Miller, all of whom belong to the Lutheran Church. On the brook, southeast of the village, have been sawmills operated by Christian Seidner and John May ; below, on the same stream, Solomon Crouse had an early gristmill. Here are now saw- and grist-mills operated by steam-and water-power by Henry Welk. In the village, a steam saw-mill was put up before 1860 by Diser, Shale & Felger; it is now operated by Jacob Snook. Joseph Davis was a distiller at the village many years ago ; Andrew Shale has at present a grain distillery, and John Seeger a fruit distillery. Tanneries were formerly carried on by Conrad & Showacre. In 1872, William May and Adam Seidner put up a foundry in the lower part of the village, which was removed to its present location in 1878. It is here carried on by Ruel N. Wright, in buildings well adapted for this purpose. Steam-power is employed, and stoves, plows, and agricultural implements are produced. The New Springfield Bent-Works, George Felger & Sons, proprietors, are the outgrowth of a small business established by these parties near the square. In August, 1877, their shop was consumed by fire, causing a conflagration which destroyed also the houses of J. S. Shearer and S. F. Hadley. A large and well-arranged building was then erected in the outskirts of the village, in which the works have since been successfully carried on. Steam-power is used, and five men are employed. In the village are a job-work shop by Adam Seidner ; carriage-shops by Conrad and Franklin Peters, Solomon Pfau, and Benjamin Felger ; a tin-smith shop by Ira Smith ; a harness-shop by Henry Sitler ; and half a dozen other shops where ordinary mechanical trades are carried on. NEW MIDDLETON, a pleasant country village, having about 250 inhabitants, is located on section 10, chiefly on the Youngstown Street. It was laid out before 1825, in the neighborhood of the present mill, by Samuel Moore, and has been enlarged by additions made by William Brotherton and John Miller. David Shearer put up the first frame house, just north of the mill. A small store was opened about 1830 by Joshua Dixon, in a house now occupied by D. Metz. He was followed in trade by Adam Powers and David Shearer. Later came Brungard & Davison, at the stand where was afterwards Tobias Hahn. The store was burned in 1851, and was rebuilt by Hahn. It was afterwards occupied by Henry Miller, Tobias Hahn, and at present contains the store of John F. Smith. South of this building, Henry Miller put up and occupied a good business house, which was burned in 1870, when occupied by Brungard & Bro. Seven years later, Tobias Hahn opened a large store near by, which, in August, 1878, was robbed, and burned by the burglars to prevent detection. Besides the store mentioned, there are in trade J. G. Smith, H. A. Whelk, and R. L. Floor, the latter having a drug-store. The establishment of the post-office cannot be clearly determined. Among the postmasters have been David Shearer, T. Hahn, David Johnson, Henry Miller, and the present, Abraham McCurley. The office has a daily mail from Youngstown. As physicians are remembered Drs. Elisha Murray, Greble, Connor, Henry, Zimmerman, and Frank Floor. The present practitioners are Drs. R. L. and John Floor. The first public-house was kept by Samuel Moore, before 1830, in a building which stood on the site of J. G. Bacher's residence. In the old house Adam Powers, John B. Miller, Wm. Forbus, and David Johnson were among the keepers. The latter built the present house after the destruction of the old one, in 1851. At this stand Oliver Stanford was the last landlord. South of this place was another public-house, in which Shearer, Dixon, Cox, etc., kept entertainment. At one time the village had four taverns. John Welker is the present innkeeper. About the first attempt at manufacturing in the village was made in 1841 by Welker, Pease & Co., who put up a carding-mill which was operated by horse-power. In after-years there was a distillery in this building ; and still later, machinery was supplied to carry on the manufacture of linseed oil. Steam-power was then employed. In 1871, while the property of T. Hahn, the building was burned to the ground. In 1849, Welker & Brungard put up a steam saw-mill, which is at present operated by Martin & Coller. In 1870 a stock company of twenty members was formed to build a steam grist-mill in the village. After the lapse of several years this property passed into the hands of Fred. Fouser, and was destroyed in the conflagration of Aug. 27, 1878. The present mill was soon after built by Mr. Fouser, and is now successfully operated by him. The village has a full complement of the ordinary mechanic-shops. On section 6, Adam Hahn, the original settler there, had a saw-mill on Yellow Creek before 1805 ; later, his son Andrew had a mill, and at present the Printz family have here in operation a steam saw-mill. TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD - 319 In 1845, Daniel Summers established a tannery on the south line of section 5, which has been carried on, since 1848, by Simeon Summers. It has about twenty vats. On section 9 a steam saw-mill was erected in the fall of 1869, by Schiller & Ruhlman, which is at present operated by Schiller & Good. There may have been other small manufacturing interests in the township, but the foregoing embrace the principal enterprises. SPRINGFIELD SCHOOLS. There being no records, but little can be said about the schools of the township. The subject of education does not seem to have received as great attention here as in some other localities ; and the appropriations for schools have not been as liberal as in the surrounding townships. Lately, however, several fine school-houses have been built, and there appears to be an increasing disposition to advance in this respect. The sub-districts had the following clerks in 1879: No. 1, Richard Warner ; No. 3, Obadiah Peters ; No. 5, S. Hassness ; No. 6, W. C. Trucksess ; No. 7, Solomon Paulin ; No. 8, Uriah Schillinger ; No. 9, Richard McConnell ; No. 10, Daniel Miller. RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES. The pioneer of Springfield was quickly followed by the self-sacrificing missionary, who was imbued with a strong zeal to plant the banner of the church on the very verge of the settlements. One of the foremost of these was the Rev. John Stouch, representing the interests of the Lutheran Church. He came as early as 1803, and preached in the German language in this and the adjoining townships, traveling many miles on his circuit, and everywhere being made welcome. As a result of his labors THE OLD SPRINGFIELD CHURCH was established. In 1804 the people of that section of the township united to build a log meeting-house, which should be consecrated to the use of the members of the Lutheran and Reformed Churches, to which most of the inhabitants adhered. This house was located in the then centre of the population, on the southeast corner of section 14, on a lot of ground which was, in part, devoted to burial purposes. This lot has been enlarged, and is yet used for its original purposes. The log house was displaced in 1842 by the present commodious church-building, which was erected under the trusteeship of Jabob Elser, Joshua Hahn, and .others. The property has always been controlled by a board of trustees, elected by the Lutheran and Reformed congregations worshiping here, the present members being Noah Burkey and David Smith. The Lutheran congregation flourished beyond the expectations of its founders, and from its fold have gone many members to form the other congregations of this faith in the township. Among those who originally belonged to the congregation were the Elser, Ilgenfritz, Lousher, Kale, Hahn, and other families. The church council contained among others Jacob Elser, Joshua Hahn, Henry Kale, John Beight, Philip Hoffmaster, Wm. Maury, John H. Miller, David Miller, Frederick Mack, John Ilgenfritz, Christian Seidner, Jacob Wolf, Gottlieb Dressel, and Ludwick Mack. The latter and Leonard G erring are the present elders ; and Jacob Reider and Moses Beight the deacons. The congregation has at present about 100 members, and is under the spiritual tutelage of the Rev. John Humberger, who also ministers to other churches in this township and Unity. Other pastors, from 1803 till the accession of Mr. Humberger in 1877, were the Revs. Stouch, Hewitt, Shaefer, Harter, Haelsche, Hoffman, Ellinger, Baechler, Seiglan, Schlotterman, Nuffar, Kramer, and Schillinger. The Reformed congregation was gathered together some time about 1810 by the Rev. Peter Mahnesmith, a missionary, who also became the first pastor, continuing many years. He was followed in that office by the Revs. Englebach, Wahl, Reinhard, and Naelle ; and, since 1870, the congregation has been under the direction of the Rev. John Meckley, residing at Petersburgh, and being also the minister of the Salem congregation in Unity. The charge has 240 members. Among the older and more prominent members of the Springfield congregation were Jacob Greenamyer, John Musser, Peter Smith, Henry Raub, John Myers, John Kuver, Jacob Seip, David George, John Homer, and John Seip. The present elders are John Myers and David Smith ; the deacons are Noah Burkey and David Myers. ST. PETER'S CONGREGATION OF THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH IN SPRINGFIELD was organized about 1841, with 60 members, formerly belonging to the congregations in Unity and the old Springfield church. Rev. A. Haelsche was the first pastor, and his successors were the Revs. Miller, Sieglan, Schlotterman, Nuffar, Kramer, Schillinger, and Humberger. In 1842 a plain but neat meeting-house was built on the southeast quarter of section 21, which has been used as a place of worship by the congregation ever since. It is locally known as the " Shroy Church." Connected therewith is an attractive grave-yard. The congregation at present has about 120 members and the following council : Elders, G. Geiger and Christian Marks ; Deacons, D. Koch and G. Brickman. ST. JOHN'S CHURCH OF LUTHERAN PIETISTS. About 1827 a number of German families residing around New Springfield built a small log house on section 28, in which was established a German school, taught by a man named Widmeyer. Shortly after, religious meetings were held in this house, and, with some interruption, were continued until about ten years ago. Among those who preached were men named Stephens, Hoffman, and Rentz, none of whom were ordained ministers. The members all strove to make the study of the Scriptures the rule of life, and all were privileged to expound them according to their understanding. They were simple in their habits, and strove to live pious, devout lives. Among the members were John Myers, George Schillinger, John G. Bacher, Jacob Hoffman, John Schiller, Jacob Mackenfoos, Solo- 320 - TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD. mon Rukenbrod, David Rukenbrod, and David Heffner. Nearly all are dead or have removed, and the church is practically extinct. ZION'S EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH OF NEW MIDDLETON was organized early in 1849, and was composed chiefly of members who had become disaffected because of the conduct of some of the members of the old Springfield church, in refusing to concede to the pastor, the Rev. J. G. Ellinger, the liberty of holding revival- and prayer-meetings. His adherents united, and chose David Miller and Frederick Ilgenfritz a building committee, and the same summer a comfortable meeting-house was built on the southeast corner of section 11. It has since been repaired and otherwise beautified. The congregation has about 70 members, under the pastoral care of the Rev. John Henry Houseman. Other pastors have been the Revs. John G. Ellinger, Guenther Wagner, Miller, Roller, and Smith. The church council is composed of John F. Miller, Eli Faust, John Ilgenfritz, Benjamin Metz, Levi Hoffmaster, and John H. Miller. The Sabbath-school is superintended by Eli Faust. THE EMANUEL EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH OF NEW SPRINGFIELD   was formally constituted Dec. 29, 1854, with the following members : Henry Miller, George Miller, George Mentzer, Samuel Miller, John C. Lower, Jacob Smith, Jr., Elias Paulin, Hannah Paulin, Catharine Sprinkle, Elizabeth Miller, and Mary Lower. The Rev. J. G. Ellinger became the first pastor, remaining until 1863. His successor was the Rev. Wm. B. Roller, who ministered until April, 1876. After a few months the Rev. Wm. M. Smith became the pastor for a year. Another vacancy followed, but since October, 1878, the pastorate has been filled by the Rev. John Henry Houseman, this church and the one at New Middleton forming a charge. The first elders were Elias Paulin and Henry Miller, the present ones are Jacob Spait and Jacob Shaffer. The first deacons were George Miller and George Mentzer, the present are Wilson S. Hadley and John Pfau. These offices have also been held by L. F. Hadley, Michael Miller, John Spait, Solomon Paulin, John Lower, Adam Harman, Samuel Miller, John P. Sonnendecker, Henry Sprinkle, and Adam Seidner. In 1854 a small brick meeting-house was built for the use of the society, on the north line of section 30, on land procured from John C. Lower. This was demolished in 1871, and a neat edifice erected in the village of New Springfield. It is of brick, 40 by 60 feet, and is crowned with a steeple. On the same lot is a comfortable parsonage. The church has a vigorous membership, and supports a Sunday-school, superintended by Leander Hoffman. It has about 75 attendants. THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF PETERSBURGH. About 1835 a class of this faith was formed in Peters-burgh, having among its members David Shellenberger and wife, George Bartlett and wife, Abraham McNutt and wife, James Wallace and wife, John Pontius and wife, John K. Swisher and wife, P. H. Swisher and wife, Mrs. Mellinger, Susan Wallace, and D. Coffin. Only one of these is now connected with the society, viz., Mrs. P. H. Swisher. The meetings were first held in private houses, but in 1836 a meeting-house was built in the village by a board of trustees, composed of James Wallace, John K. Swisher, and Abraham McNutt. In 1872 this house was enlarged and improved, being now an inviting church, 40 by 62 feet, having a steeple and bell. The present trustees are Daniel H. Adams, Jesse Smith, George Kneasel, E. K. Swisher, and R. C. Bean. The church numbers 130 members, under the pastoral care of the Rev. J. B. Wright, appointed to this charge in October, 1878. The winter following, his labors were crowned with many conversions, from which source the membership of the church was increased by 40 additions. Another notable revival occurred in 1872, under the pastoral labors of the Rev. William Branfield, the accessions being 80. Other ministers preaching to this people have been Revs. Parker Stubbs, Houston, Monks, Hurd, Crowell, McCreary, Thompson, Wick, and Morse. The church has a Sunday-school of 100 members, which is superintended by H. R. Myers. ST. JOHN'S EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH OF PETERSBURGH. This body was organized in 1873, while the Rev. B. F. Schillinger was the pastor of the old church, on section 14, to which most of the constituent membership belonged. At the time of its formation the congregation had about 60 members ; at present the number is 120. Mr. Schillinger supplied the church with preaching until October, 1874, when the Rev. J. L. Trauger became the pastor, and still continues that relation, ministering in the English language. In 1813, David Maneval, John Schnabel, and Christian Sitler, as a building committee, erected a very handsome church, 40 by 52 feet, at a cost of $3600, in which services are regularly maintained. The church council is at present composed of Trustees S. H. Hahn, Samuel Koch, John F. Maurer ; Elders, John Schnable and Philip Auer ; Deacons, Conrad Thum and C. F. Winter. The pastor superintends a Sunday-school having 125 members. THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF PETERSBURGH. This society was organized in 1872 by the Rev. Robert S. Morton, with a dozen members. The meetings were first held in the Methodist church, but measures were soon taken to build a house of worship. In 1873 a committee was appointed, composed of Samuel Wallace, Jacob Musser, and Andrew Kneasel, who erected, on Market Street, an attractive and well-appointed edifice, at a cost of $3700. It was dedicated in June, 1874, and has been the home of the church ever since. In connection with the congregation at Little Beaver, Pa., Mr. Morris has served this church as pastor ever since its formation. There are at TOWNSHIP OF SPRINGFIELD - 321 present about 50 members. The ruling elders are Samuel Wallace, A. L. Martin, John Kerr, and Albert Bonnett ; and the trustees, Andrew Kneasel, James A. Davison, and Jacob Musser. The congregation maintains a Sunday-school which nnmbers 60 members, and has A. L. Martin for superintendent. THE CHURCH OF THE EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION AT NEW SPRINGFIELD. Before 1850 members of this faith had occasional preaching by the ministers of the Columbiana County circuit, and a class was formed embracing the Schade, Felger, and Snyder families. Worship was held in private honses and in the school-house until 1870, when their present church-edifice was erected, and was the first in the village. The building committee was composed of Rev. J. Q. A. Weller, John Peters, and Jesse Smith. The house has respectable proportions, and was dedicated by Bishop Dubs. The pros- ent board of trustees are Benjamin Felger, Philip Felger, John Peters, Daniel Diser, and George Koons. The members, numbering 52, form one class under the leadership of Benjamin Felger. Rev. Wilson Diser resides here as a local minister, and is also the superintendent of a flourishing Sabbath-school, having 76 members. This appointment is connected with the North Lima church, and the church of the Evangelical Association at New Middlleton, in forming a circuit, served by one pastor. Since 1877 the minister has been the Rev. J. D. Domer, residing at North Lima, in the parsonage of the circuit. Other ministers from the time the denomination began its work in these parts, in 1836, have been the Revs. Elias Stoever, S. Vangundey, George Dressell, C. G. Koch, Joseph Truby, Abraham Loehner, Joseph Dick, D. L. Miller, A. Stahley, A. Long, S. F. Crowther, G. W. Reisinger, Jacob Rank, G. S. Domer, J. D. Hollinger, J. J. Bernhart, J. Q. A. Weller, C. W. Davis, W. Houpt, and H. B. Summers. The church at New Middleton embraced among its original members the Pitts and Miller families. Through the efforts of John Miller a small frame meeting-house was erected for the use of the denomination some time about 1845. This property is now controlled by G. P. Hoff-master, Henry Pitts, A. S. McCurling, Peter Coller, and Henry Spitler, as trustees. Fifty-five persons constitute the membership, and Wm. K Martin is the leader of the 41 class. A Sunday-school, having 80 members, is under the superintendence of Dr. R. L. Floor. THE BETHEL MEETING OF THE BRETHREN OF MAHONING DISTRICT. Some of the early settlers of the northwestern part of Springfield maintained the faith of the Brethren, or Dunkers, and meetings, according to their customs, have been held in houses, barns, and groves since 1820. Among the early members were John Summers, David Snmmers, Jacob Summers, David Brown, Jacob Haas, Mathias Haas, L. Shoemaker, and Henry Kurtz. The latter was one of the preachers more than thirty years. His predecessor was George Hoke. The preachers of a later day were James Quinter, Daniel Summers, and Richard Brenneman. The present preachers are Jacob H. Kurtz and Jonas Hoke. About 1818 the first meeting-house was built on the Summers farm, near the southwest corner of section 5. This gave place, in 1873, to the present structure, a frame, 44 by 50 feet, occupying the same site. It is controlled by trustees, Simeon Longanecker, Eli Ruhlman, and Simeon Summers. The meeting is connected with the one on Zion Hill, in Beaver township, and has much the same history: At Bethel is a good Sunday-school, superintended by E. H. Ruhlman. CEMETERIES. The cemetery used by the Brethren was located at an early day, near the centre of section 5, and is still continued there, although its situation is very inconvenient. The oldest cemetery in the township is the one connected with the old Springfield church. It contains a great many graves, some of which are marked by monuments of very creditable appearance. Many bear inscriptions in the German. Nearly all the churches maintain their own cemeteries, and, as a rule, they indicate that proper respect has been shown for the resting places of the dead. At Petersburgh a large cemetery has lately been located by some of the pnblic-spirited citizens of the place. It embraces about four acres, situated on a little knoll north of the village, giving it excellent natural drainage. The grounds have been inclosed with a neat fence, and otherwise materially improved. With proper care it will become one of the finest cemeteries in this part of the country.
