To begin at the beginning, in recounting the settlement of any important portion of our country, is manifestly the thing to do in order to be exhaustive, and more particularly to discover the germ of the settlement, which so often gives character to it. But it is, not likely that High- land township owes' much to the first settler or his associates in this respect, since whatever else he did he failed to impress his individuality or his times so as to perpetuate his memory, and his cotemporaries have left no record that is available, from which we can *define that period ; we only know that they penetrated an unknown region, and it is presumable that " darkness was upon the face of the deep," and we know that it remains, concerning that period. " The oldest inhabitants " have the following tradition :

Matthias Trace came from Washington county, Pennsylvania, and settled on the n0rtheast quarter of section eleven, in 1808. Lot Wortman came and entered the northeast quarter of section sixteen, and James Honnold entered the northwest quarter of section fifteen. The latter was from Loudon county, Virginia. Peter Bond came from Maryland, some time between 18 t0 and 1812, and located on the southeast quarter of section thirteen, now occupied by P. B. Geyer. Thomas Rambo located on the southwest quarter of section nineteen, about 1813 ; the place is now occupied by Geo. Fisher. Alex. Mays and J.K. McCune settled on section twenty-two about the same date. Edward Ostler settled on the northwest quarter of section nineteen, in 1814, and Jacob Honnold on the northwest quarter of section fourteen, in 1816. From deeds made at an early day, it appears that the name now written Honnold was then written Hannald. John, Casper, Peter and William Bradford, David, Benjamin, John and William Davis, all came in 1813. The Bradfords located on section eight, and the. Davis' on section seven. The Geyers,Michaels, Fells and Shroyers, were also early settlers, but nothing definite appears on record as to their location. James Honnold, Andrew Geyer an John Bradford had frame houses in 1835. This is spoken of as evidence of an advanced state of home comfort, although the first good frame house was built by Samuel Scott, in 1845. It does not ap-

pear in what this degree of excellence consisted, as in contrast with those named before it.

The first and only brick house in the township was built by Thomas Roberts, near the Bethel Church, in 1850.

The first blacksmith was Robert Baxter., whose shop was located on the Adamsville road, in the long ago." James Honnold was a knight of the anvil near about the same time.

Peter Bond brought the first wagon into the township—the remains of which are now in the possession of his grandson, Peter B. Geyer—and show by contrast the wonderful improvements that have been made in wagons in three quarters of a century.

The first public road was laid out from Cambridge to Dresden, about the year 1806. The next was from Findley Mill Dam, south of Con cord, to the mouth of Wills Creek, through Highland township, in 1815. It was surveyed by Charles Roberts. Peter D. Reasoner and James McMichael were the viewers.

Joseph K. McCune. surveyed a road from James Sprague's, in Highland township, to John Reynold's store, on the Wheeling road," thirteen Miles, and made return of the same, May 29th, 1817.

Fine sheep were introduced by John Bell, in 1857. He bought three hundred and eighty head from various parties in Washington county, Pennsylvania, Harrison and Guernsey counties, paying $50 per head for the best. In 1863, he went to Vermont and purchased forty-five thoroughbred sheep, of Merrell, Bingham, and Rockwell, of Middlebury, and in 1864, he bought six head of Mr. Peck, of Vermont, for $800. In 1879, he bought of T. & J. Close, Belmont county, Ohio, one ram for $150, and twenty-five thoroughbred ewes. Mr. William Caughey bought eighteen head, and Mr.George Fisher bought seventeen head, at the same time, paying $40 per head.

Mr. Bell was also an importer of short horn Durham cattle. In 1866, he purchased of G. J. Hagerty, Esq., of Licking county, Ohio, " Victoria," for $225, and " Strawberry " for $150 ; add of H. H. Hankins, Clinton county, Ohio, " Emma," (a yearling), for $80 ; and from John Hamrickhouse, of Coshocton county, Ohio, "Boothe," (a bull eleven Years old), for $125 ; and of D. Beecher, of Otsego, " Sultana" and " Boone," and many other valuable purchases.

HIGHLAND TOWNSHIP LIMITS.

"A petition was presented by a number of the inhabitants of the northeastern division of Muskingum county, praying that the fifth and sixtb ranges ; thence south, to the line that divides the first and second townships ; thence east, to the county line ; thence north, to the place of beginning, may be incorporated into a new township, by the name of Highland, and the election ordered to be held at the house of William Dennison, on the first Monday in April, 1814, to elect' township officers.—March 11, 1814." Dennison lived one and a half miles southwest of Adams ville. Highland township was reduced to its present dimensions, July 2d, 1819. Whether there was any record of that election, or not, does not appear. Tradition has it, that the first Justices of the Peace were Joseph K. McCune and Joseph Williamson.

The township is bounded, on the north, by Monroe township ; on the east, by Guernsey county ; on the south, by Union township, and on the west, by Salem township. It is situated on the divide between White Eyes creek, on the north, and Crooked creek and Salt creek, on the south, and, being an elevated region, the name "Highland" was sugested, and it was so called. It is equivalent to town two, range five. The central and southern portions are comparatively smooth and easy of cultivation, while the northern portion is uneven and hilly.

The Highland township officials are as follows : Justices—William Hammond and A. L. Anderson.

Constable—Jacob Campbell.

Clerk—Alexander Wilson.

Treasurer—J. M. Lane.

Assessor—H. K. Ballentine.

Land Appraiser—A. H. White.

Trustees—James McCormick, Alexander Roy, and D. W. Ross.

Board of Education—Districts numbered as follows : 1, Peter B. Geyer ; 2, James McCormick ; 3, Robert Jamison ; 4, J. C. Bell ; 5, William McCoy ; 6, James Davis.

THE FIRST MILL.

The first mill built in Highland township was erected by Noah Decker, on the northwest quarter of section fourteen, in 1815. It was first a sawmill, then a distillery—at which time a pair of buhrs was put in, to chop grain for the "still." These buhrs were brought from Laurel Hill, near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and, after Decker's mill was a thing of the past, :these stones did service in several localities. They are now lying near Mr. T. Marks' mill, at Bloomfield. There is no distillery in the township now.

About the year 1830, James McMichael built a gristmill, on the northwest quarter of section twenty-one. This was what was termed "overshot," with two run of buhrs ; but he could not get the privilege of the . main creek, and was obliged to abandon the enterprise, in 1842 ; and at this time, a "tramp- wheel" was put in and a carding-machine set up, which is still in operation.

John Geyer built a small gristmill, in the south part of the township, at an early day, but the precise time cannot now be stated.

In 1833, William Reynolds erected a sawmill,. on White Eyes Creek; on the land now owned by James Wilson. It was designated as a "flutter- wheel" mill, and was not very effective in manufacturing lumber.

A few years later, Andrew Henderson erected a mill, one mile further down the stream, and used a "Parker wheel." It worked -well, but the patentee took the wheel away, and the mill

TOWNSHIP HISTORIES OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY - 453

ceased. About this time, Hugh Simms erected a sawmill, on a branch of White Eyes creek, where Hugh Simms, Jr., now lives. He had one pair of buhrs, and ran the mill about five years.

In 1843, James McDonald built a sawmill, one mile south of the present site of Bloomfield, and, in 1846, sold it to Martin McLane, who put in a pair of buhrs and ran the mill four or five years.

In 1853, John Buchanan and Samuel Moorehead built a gristmill, on the southwest quarter of section ten. It was a frame, twenty-six by thirty-two, and had two run of buhrs. It passed from one owner to another, until it became the property of Joseph Selders, who last operated it, in 1871.

In 1873, Theophilus Wark erected a mill, a little further east, also a frame, and thirty-six by forty, three stories high, with two run of buhrs and a hominy mill. It has a saw and planing mill, twenty-six by fifty-two, attached. This is the only mill now in operation in Highland township. It is run by steam, and does a good business. Mr. Wark is said to have been the first to introduce a circular saw in this township —about 1859.

CHURCHES.

Methodist Church.—In 1816, Rev. William Knox organized a class, composed of Jacob Honnold and Abigail, his wife ; James Honnold and Elizabeth, his wife ; and Lot Workman and Margaret, his wife. Jacob Honnold was leader. This was the first Methodist class organized in Highland township. In 1820, Samuel Honnold, George Geyer and family, Amos Fell and wife, Peter Hammond and wife, James Hammond and wife, and Philip Richcreek, were added to the class.

In 1828, a hewed log meeting-house, thirty by forty, was erected, on a lot deeded for that purpose by Lot Workman. This house stood until 1830, when a brick church, thirty-five by forty- five, was erected an the same site. This was destroyed by fire, in January, 1854. The Trustees, at that time, were Thomas Roberts, Jacob Shively, William Armstrong, Daniel Geyer, Jacob Honnold, James Honnold, and Hamilton J. Honnold. They immediately .called a meeting, and contracted with Jacob Y. Honnold, to build a frame church, forty by fifty, for $1,251. This church was named "Bethel M. E. Church." This appointment is on the Adamsville Circuit. The steward, in 1880, was Clinton Taylor ; the leaders, Peter Galigher, Isaac Hanks, John Sauerbaugh, and Newton. Shroyer. The membership at that time was one hundred strong.

A Sunday School was organized at Honnold meeting-house by Rev. Joseph Carper, and is still in' operation and a valuable adjunct to the churcb.

Bloomfield U. P. Church.—This congregation was originally known as the Bloomfield Associate Presbyterian congregation, and therefore its history dates back to the inception of that church..

The first sermon was preached January l0th, 1818, by Rev. Robert Douglas, at the house of David Duff. The congregation was organized by Rev. John Walker, March l0th, 1818, at the house of Mr. Duff. The first communion was held by Rev. Wm. Wilson, in September, 1818, at the Spring, on the property of Rev. J. P. Lytle, (then owned by D. Rankin). The congregation was at first composed of the families of David Duff, Joseph K. McCune, William Simpson, Thomas Ramsey, and John Atchison. The following persons, with their families, soon after became connected with the congregation : James Black, Robert Wilson, James Moorhead, David Atchison, John Weylie, A. Darragh ,Mrs. Forsyth, Alex. Wilson, David Monroe, and Alex. Duff. Joseph K. McCune, David Duff, and Robert McCall were made ruling Elders. Some years later, Jacob McNight, David Little, and John Officer were chosen. At the third election, John Dunlap, Robert Atchison, James Morrow and Robert Wilson were chosen. These were succeeded by David Conaughy, Martin M. Lane, William Marshall, John Monroe, Thomas Clegg, William Weylie, Samuel Scott, Matthew Atchison and John Jamison. Rev. Daniel M. Lane first preached for the congregation in 1823, and in 1824, a call being extended to him, he became the first regular pastor of the Bloomfield Associated Church, and continued in that relation until 1854, when he resigned., Rev. J. P. Lytle became pastor in July, 1855, and continues to minister to that church.

The first tent for preaching stood near the site of the present meeting house. A tent was afterwards erected about one mile north of Mr. Russell's farm, and served until a meeting house was built, near the eastern side of the present graveyard, on the line between sections ten and eleven. It was of log, 24x24, and built in 1822. The next house of worship was built near the site of the present. It was a hewed log structure, 25x40, with two wings, or additions, one each side, (10x10); built in 1831.

The third house was frame, 50x60, located on the present site, in 1847, and cost $1,300.

In 1858, by common consent, the Associate Presbyterian and Associate Reformed Presbyterian Churches united, under the name of the United Presbyterian Church. At this time, the A. P. congregation consisted of one hundred and ninety members, of which one hundred and seventy went into the Union, and twenty members declined to do so, and built a church for themselves.

At the first election after the Union, (in 1863), Robert Thompson, Hugh Wilson, and John McDonald, were elected elders, and in 1872, John Miller, Joseph. A. Thompson, John G. Eakin, and Jeremiah Monroe were elected Deacons ; they elected in the congregation for tbe first time, about 1860, viz : Alex. Russell, John Bennett, and John Miller ; in 1863, John G. Eakin, John Simms, and Eli Osier ; in 1872, Thomas H. Wilson, Hugh Lines, W. McCoy, James Hogseed, and Alex. McConaghy were elected Deacons, ordained and installed.

454 - TOWNSHIP HISTORIES OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO.

The present number of members is two hundred and ten.

This history, up to the time of the Union described, is the history of the Associate Presbyterian Church.

Bloomfield Associate Presbyterian Church. June l2th, 1858, the congregation met at the semi-annual meeting, and, whereas the Chairman and Clerk, with a number of the congregation, having gone into the late Union with the Associate Presbyterian and Associate Reformed Churches, Dr. J. M. Lane was called to the chair, and John Bell appointed Clerk, when the following preamble was read and adopted :

" WHEREAS, We the undersigned, members of the Associate Congregation of Bloomfield, not seeing our way clear to enter into the Union that has been consummated at the late meeting of the Associate Reformed Synods, do therefore declare that we will stand firm to the doctrine held to and witnessed for the Associate Church of North America, and do further declare ourselves to be the Associate Congregation of Bloomfield, and as our present pastor, Rev. J. P. Lytle, has gone into the above named Union, we declare ourselves vacant ; therefore,

"Resolved, That we, through a committee, call upon our brethren in the ministry of the Associate Church, for supplies of preaching ; and, also, that we defray the expense of the same.

" Therefore, on motion of James Achison, John Bell and Neal McNight were appointed said committee, and the above resolutions adopted and signed by the following members of said congregation, who protested with others.

“John M. LANE, Chairman.

" JOHN BELL, Clerk.

"Protest,—Robert Achison John Bell, James R. Achison, Juliana Achison, Rose A. Achison, John M. Lane, Susanna Lane, John Achison, Ebenezer Achison, M. R. Achison, Messer McNight, Neal McNight, Margaret McNight, Mary Bell, Jane Bell,Mrs. John Bell,Harriet Bell, and others. Said committee immediately corresponded with the Northern Indiana Presbytery, asking to be taken under their care, and supplied with preaching, as the ministers of Muskingum Presbytery had all gone into the U. P. Church, to which said Presbytery responded immediately, and in September following, the Rev. James Dixon was sent as supply, by authority of said Presbytery, and an election of Elders was had in April, 1859, resulting in the election of Robert Achison, Joseph McCune and Ephraim McKeenan ; at the same time, and by the same authority, a call was moderated by Rev. Samuel Hindman, which resulted in the choice of Rev. William Ballentine, who continues to be the pastor."

The persons leaving this church to unite with the new church, retained possession of the church edifice, and in 1863, this church erected a meeting-house for themselves, and have continued to occupy it. In 1865, the following officers were elected :

Ruling Elders—Robert Maxlock, Eli Fisher and John Ballentine.

In 1872, the following were also elected : Geo. Fisher, John Bell, J. M. Lane and Matthew R. Achison. The session has been reduced by death, to seven members ; the congregation by death, and removal, to twenty-eight families— about eighty members.

M'CORKLE COLLEGE.

In 1862, Rev. William Ballentine, a minister Of the Associate Presbyterian Church, invited several young men to engage in preparation for the ministry, offering to hear their recitations in his study. They accepted his proposition, and were joined by others, until his study was insufficient for their accommodation, when the meeting-house was offered and accepted by them. This new-born institution, was named the Bloomfield High School. The students were studious, and when ready to enter the senior class, in 1866, the Synod took notice of the promising school, and determined to give it an earnest support, and to that end passed an act appointing Robert Achison, John Bell,' William Finney, Samuel McKee, Robert Hyslop, Robert Brown, A. McCreery, J. H. Johnson and John Baird, a Board of Trustees.

Bloomfield Academy was incorporated in 1869, and a home purchased for the use of the students. Such was their progress, that a college building became a necessity. J. Bell, as President of the Board, was appointed general financial agent, and, in that capacity, raised funds sufficient to warrant them in entering up.on the erection of the college building. In the fall of 1872, the foundation was laid; and the spring term of 1873 was held in the basement. A charter was obtained February 12th, 1873, and the institution was clothed with university powers. Rev. W. Ballentine, A. M., was elected President ; James Hindman, A. B., Vice President ; and R. C. Kerr, A. B., Professor of Languages.

The college has an endowment of eight thousand dollars, and, including the value of buildings and grounds, a capital of twenty thousand dollars. The situation, in the eastern portion of the village, is pleasant and attractive, and the accommodations are ample.

BLOOMFIELD CEMETERY.

The site, having been selected by the citizens, was donated by Walter Hogseed ; the deed, however, was not recorded. In 1879, an additional one-third of an acre was obtained, and a deed made for the whole by James Hogseed, the tract then comprising three and one-third acres. The first person buried there was Lorenzo Dow, a school teacher, in 1818.

Petrified.— Peter Bond Was buried just north of Peter B. Geyerls house, in 1853 ; his friends determined, in 1878, to remove his remains to Bethel Cemetery, and found his body completely petrified ; probably caused by being saturated by a stream surcharged with limestone,

TOWNSHIP HISTORIES OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 455

TANNERY.

In 1835, David T. Bigger erected a small tannery, on the road from New Concord to Bloomfield, and continued the business about ten years.

PHYSICIANS.

The first resident physician in the township was Dr. E. S. Wortman. He lived on the northeast quarter of section sixteen, in 1839.

Dr. A. B. McCandless came in 1850, and located in Bloomfield, and remained four years.

Dr. R. T. Wark began practice in Bloomfield in 1850, and remained twenty years.

Dr. J. Morris Lane located in the village in 1848, and is still in the service, much to the gratification of his patrons.

BLOOMFIELD.

The town site of Bloomfield, was originally owned by David Rankin. In 1853, Thomas Clegg bought a few acres and laid out lots seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve and thirteen, north of the Cambridge road. William Weylie laid out lots one, two, three, four, five and six, south of the road, and Daniel McLane laid out lots fourteen, fifteen and sixteen, west of the others. The surveying was done, November 8th, 1853, by Joseph Fisber. Jobn D. Hogseed made an addition in March, 1873, and J. P. Lytle made another in September, 1879. Bloomfield contains McCorkle College, William Ballentine, principal ; an U. P. .Church, Rev. J. P. Lytle, pastor ; an A. P. Church, William Ballentine, pastor.

Sago Postoffice, W. A. Mintier, Postmaster ; he also keeps a store ; J. Morris Lane, M.D. ; a grist and saw mill, Theophilus Wark, proprietor ; •Mrs. M. Guthrie's grocery ; J. W. McKinney, blacksmith ; J. L. Morrow, shoemaker ; William Hammond, undertaker ; Mrs. Guss Parr, milliner.

BLOOMFIELD POSTOFFICE.

The first Postmaster was John Crooks, who was appointed August 29th, 1857 ; his successor was William Weylie, appointed in 1862, who served until September 14th, 1865, when Robbert Guthrie was appointed. Mr. Guthrie died, and Mrs. Guthrie was appointed, June 24th, 1868, and served until October, 1874, when she was succeeded by Alexander Wilson, who was appointed October 1st, 1874, and served until January, 1876, when he was succeeded by John J. White, who was succeeded April 1st, 1877, by W. A. Mintier, the present incumbent.

The mail is supplied to this office from New Concord Depot.

SCHOOLS.

The first school house was a round log structure, 24x24, with puncheon floor and furnishings. It stood on the northwest quarter of section eleven, then (1818) owned by Walter Hogseed. It served the double purpose of school house and "meeting house." This building was subsequently moved further down the Cambridge road, just beyond the present residence of Theophilus Wark. It gave way in after years to a hewed log hexagonal building. There were two other buildings of this shape, used for school purposes, but they have disappeared.

The first teacher was Lorenzo Dow. He died, and was buried near the scene of his labors, in 1818, and was the first person buried in the grounds that became Bloomfield Cemetery. It is said that John Bell introduced into school No. 4 the first blackboard in eastern Muskingum. It was made by Peter B. Geyer, one of his scholars, in 1843.

There are six good frame school houses, in as many districts in this township, at this time, and under the management of a Board of Education, who are proud of our public school system, and do what they canto secure its advantages to the pupils.

STORES.

The first store was kept in the house where Samuel Moorehead now lives, by Joseph Graham, in 1833. The net was kept by William Mason, between the roads opposite Mr. T. Mark's house, east of the village of Bloomfield. He carried on the business there from 1835 to 1843. The next store was located in the triangle formed by the junction of the Adamsville and New Concord roads, in Bloomfield, in 1848, and was conducted by George Buchanan. He was succeeded by William Weylie, who built a new store on the corner, lot No. 3, opposite the present post- office, in 1851, and continued in business until 1866. In 1852, Thomas Forsyth began business in the old store, between the Concord and Dresden roads, and, in 1854, built a store on the corner, lot No. 13,' now occupied by W. A. Mintier. He retired from business in 1857. After. Forsyth, came Atchison & Bell, then Atchison & Bro., James Black, J. F. Warrick, and Thomas. Mackey. W. A. Mintier, the present occupant, began business in the same building in 1877.

MILITARY RECORD.

The following list embraces nearly all of the patriots of this township who dared to tight for and preserve our country in the hour of peril, when rebel hordes would have desolated our homes and given birth to something akin to despotism. The list was furnished by Mr. T. Wark. and is doubtless as near correct as it is possible to make it at this late date. We give the names and regiments in the order furnished, which are as follows :
