| 8 | (Research):A Standard History of the Hanging Rock Iron Region of Ohio, An Authentic Narrative of the Past, with an Extended Survey of the Industrial and Commercial Development states: Oscar M. Coburn was born in Columbiana County, Ohio, December 25, 1844, and in the same house was born his father, Arthur A. Coburn, in 1810. The grandfather [i.e. William Coburn], a native of Ireland, at the age of twelve came to America with an older brother, who settled in New England. Subsequently Grandfather Coburn made his way into Northwest Territory, settling in what is now Columbiana County, where he secured a tract of timbered land about five miles from Salem and seven miles from Wellsville (presumably around 1794, per date son Samuel came to Ohio). Having improved a farm he and his wife lived there until death. Their eight children were James, Thomas, William, Arthur. Samuel, John, Margaret and Sarah. From - History of the Upper Ohio Valley with Historical Account of Columbiana County, Ohio. Copyright 1890 and published 1891 by Brant and Fuller. Madison, WI. Under St Clair Township, page 259: "James Huston, an old and highly respected citizen of Columbiana county now deceased, was born in Virginia about 1789, Samuel and Esther (Waugh) Huston being his parents. James came to Ohio with his parents about 1799 and settled on the farm where his widow now resides, three months before the organization of the state, when the country round about was infested with wild beasts and still more hostile savages. Samuel was a farmer and one of the earliest pioneers. James was drafted in the war of 1812, but secured a substitute on account of having a widowed mother to care for. He was a good farmer, keenly alive to the best interests of his farm, and a good citizen, always identified with any work which promised the public welfare. He was married October 20, 1842, to Miss Francis, daughter of Samuel and Margaret (Crawford) Coburn. Samuel Coburn came to Ohio with his parents in 1794, and settled near Calcutta. He was born August 5, 1780, and died January 8, 1871. He was a private in the war of 1812, serving during the entire war. He was an excellent agriculturist and an exemplary Christian gentleman. Both himself and wife were devout members of the Seceder church. He held many minor public offices, and his official acts were ever characterized by honesty and faithfulness. His wife passed away in 1843, she being then sixty-four years of age. from History of Columbiana County, Ohio - Harold B. Barth Historical Publishing Company 1926 The only battle of the Civil War in Ohio was fought in Washington Township, back of Salineville, when the celebrated raider, Gen. John Morgan, was defeated by Union troops under Major Rue, who chased him for 100 miles across the state. "Salt boiling" was in the early days an important industry. Salineville, where the industry thrived most largely, received its name from its salt wells. Salt at the beginning of the century was a precious commodity in the west, ranking with the luxuries of the pioneer days. It brought higher prices than even sugar and flour, since it had to be brought over the mountains from the East. Frequently the ruling price was $5 a bushel, and even then the supply was often exhausted for weeks in the little settlements in the sparsely inhabited region. "Packing salt" over the mountains was a business much followed in those days by enterprising traders and until the salt spring of Columbiana County began to give up their yield, was attended with large profits. Stories are still told of the days when early settlers rode many miles to obtain a supply of salt, and prized it to an extent that in later years seemed ridiculous. Salt springs were early found here and there throughout the southern part of the county, and finally settlers began making explorations, and boring wells for the precious staple. The industry quickly became profitable and was carried on for more than half a century, until the cheapness of the product shipped from Michigan and New York State put an end to the business. George James, who came to Salineville from Kentucky is said to have bored the first salt well in Columbiana County in 1809. He obtained a strong pressure of water with but little salt, though he drilled two wells, the first was 300 feet (from which there was a strong flow of gas), and the second 900 feet. James Sharp sand three wells at about the same time. Several persons put down wells, but failed to find salt in sufficient quantities. In 1818 John Farmer, who had come to Salineville from New Garden, Hanover Township, bought three abandoned wells that had been put down by three brothers named Burson, and went into the salt business on a large scale. Farmer caught the business at its high tide, and, having considerable capital to invest, made money. The industry reached it height in the vicinity of Salineville in 1835, at which time there were 20 producing wells along Little Yellow Creek. AT that time Farmer's output was more than 50 barrels a week, and he had meantime been joined by his son, James Farmer, later prominent in the development of the coal interests around Salineville, and in the building of the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railroad. Farmer continued the business until 1853, when he sold it to Isaac Kirk, who operated the wells with more or less success until 1865, when the business ceased to be profitable about Salineville. The business had decreased rapidly after 1835, however, the State reports for 1841 showing but eight salt wells in operation in the county, with a production of 2,800 barrels of salt yearly. Notwithstanding this apparent decline of the industry, a company formed in 1866, composed of about 30 men, most of them from New Lisbon, abandoned a search for oil in that year and turned their attention to the manufacture of salt. The company had been organized to test the rumored oil deposits along the middle fork of the Little Beaver Creek, a short distance northwest of New Lisbon. At about 687 feet depth salt water was struck, and simultaneously a strong vein of gas. The gas and salt water shot up 100 feet above the surface, the gushing process continuing for several days. The search for oil was abandoned, and the manufacture of salt was continued for many years successfully. While the well continued to flow, for about two years, the yield of salt was 15 barrels a day. Then for several years the gas was used for fuel under the boiler, and by the pumping process the yield of salt was increased to 30 barrels a day. The company dissolved in a few years, but R. G. Eells continued to operate the plant with good success until almost 1880, that being the last production of salt in Columbiana County. Peter Young was president of the company; John A. Myers, secretary and Baltzer Brown, James Starr, R. G. Eells and J. A. Morron among the stockholders. Several salt wells were bored during the 40's and 50's between East Liverpool and Wellsville, but the industry never proved successful. In 1880 the county was accredited with nine producing wells, and the production was given at 43,800 bushels. In the following year, 1881, only one well was in operation. Wayne Township, five miles square, has twenty-five sections and adjoins Centre Township. Through it flows the west fork of Beaver Creek and is much cut up by the numerous streams flowing into it. The surface is rough. Originally of 36 sections it lost five to Washington and six to Franklin townships when Carroll County was organizes. It was organized in 1806. The township was settled in 1802 when Adam Poe, father of the fighting Poe brothers, Aaron Hull, James Hoge, Patick McKaig, the Sheehans, Armstrongs and Hutchinsons arrived in it. Aaron Hull is believed to have arrived in the locality a few months ahead of the others. William Crafton is said to have owned the first grain cradle in the township and John McLeest the initial cart and wagon within its confines. John T. Parker was the first justice of the peace within its borders with Patrick McKaig and Thomas Roseburg following. Prior to the rural free delivery Gavers and West Beaver were postoffice points. Jean Meister and Gottlob Northdurft, two early French settlers, enjoyed the distinction of having served in European wars under Napoleon Bonaparte. Daniel Lindesmith was greatly noted as a hunter and expert rifle shot. The Bethel Presbyterian Church was in existence in 1818 under the ministry of Rev. Mr. Robertson. In 1823 it was formally organized.

| 15 | (Research):From "A Standing History of the Hanging Rock Iron Region of Ohio" by Eugene B. Willard, Daniel W. Williams, George O. Newman and Charles B. Taylor. Published by Lewis Publishing Company, 1916 Oscar M. Coburn. Threescore and ten years, measures the length of Mr. Coburn 's life to the present time, but measured by what he has experienced and accomplished, his career has many distinctions not dependent on the passing of time. Now living retired at Portsmouth, with abundance of material comforts, he spent his youth in the country district of Scioto County, won honors and rank as lieutenant during the war, and later devoted himself to varied business activities in this and other counties of Ohio. Oscar M. Coburn was born in Columbiana County, Ohio, December 25, 1844, and in the same house was born his father, Arthur A. Coburn, in 1810. The grandfather, a native of Ireland, at the age of twelve came to America with an older brother, who settled in New England. Sub sequently Grandfather Coburn made his way into Northwest Territory, settling in what is now Columbiana County, where he secured a tract of timbered land about five miles from Salem and seven miles from Wcllsville. Having improved a farm he and his wife lived there until death. Their eight children were James, Thomas, William, Arthur. Samuel, John, Margaret and Sarah. Arthur A. Coburn was reared and married in his native county (Columbiana County, OH) and made it his home until 1846. The previous year he had visited Scioto County, and entered a tract of government land in Madison township. He proceeded to clear up five acres, and in the same fall sowed it to wheat and also built a cabin of round logs, with spilt-puncheon floors, a mud and stick chimney, and the roof was covered with clapboards, rived by hand and held in place by weight poles. The door was also made of a heavy puncheon, with a wooden latch, lifted by a deer thong, and the neighbors afterwards measured the hospitality of the Coburn home by saying "the latch string always is out." When this part of his pioneer home-making was finished, he returned to Columbiana County for the winter, and in the spring embarked his household goods, stock.farm implements, and family on an Ohio River steamboat, and came down the river to the new settlement. At that time there were no rail roads in this section of Ohio, all transportation being by river, canal or highways. Mrs. Arthur Coburn was a type of the old-fashioned housewife. She carded, spun and wove both flax and wool, was the family tailor and dressmaker, and clothed them all in homespun. Mr. Coburn with the assistance of his growing sons, cleared a farm and later built a commodious hewed log house, which he weatherboarded and painted, and in which he lived until his death, in January 1876. Arthur A. Coburn married Martha Caldwell. She was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. The father, Joseph Caldwell, was born in Scotland, and on coming to this country located in Pittsburg, where for several years he was engaged in the manufacture of axes. Later he moved north of Pittsburg into Mercer County, and bought land that included Sandy Lake, remaining there until his death at a good old age. His wife survived to the remarkable age of ninety-eight. Mrs. Coburn was well educated, and was a teacher before her marriage. She died in July, 1880. Her children were Thomas, Phebe A., James, Harvey, Caldwell, Martha J., Arthur, Oscar M., Robert and Theodore. Four of these sons, including Oscar, were soldiers in the Civil war. Thomas was killed at the battle of Fredericksburg, another died at Lexington, Kentucky, while Harvey, who enlisted at the first call and fought in the first Bull Run, was honorably discharged and while coming home was crippled in a railway accident. Oscar M. Coburn grew up in the community where his parents had settled when he was a child, and got his education from the rural schools. He was not yet seventeen when the war broke out, but he became one of the many boy volunteers who bore the brunt of the task of putting down the rebellion. In August, 1861. he enlisted in Company E of the Thirty- third Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and was with his command in its various skirmishes, battles and marches until the battle of Perryville, Kentucky. There he received a severe wound, was taken to the hospital at Louis ville, and was given an honorable discharge, February 27. 1863. Not yet satisfied with soldering, he again enlisted May 9, 186:5, this time in Battery F of the First Ohio Heavy Artillery. He went by rail to Lex ington, Kentucky, and thence marched to Knoxville, Tennessee, where he arrived the same month, being made corporal in his company. He had been in Knoxville only a short time when he was one of six detailed by General Schofield for secret service. This squad, commanded by George W. Kirk, crossed the mountains to North Carolina, their pur pose being to discover a feasible route for an army. A Cherokee Indian was secured for a guide, but lost his way, and for three days theywandered in the mountains without food. Many of the loyal moun taineers joined in the expedition and piloted the way to Camp Vance, where 354 Confederates were guarding 398 Union prisoners. On reach ing that place. Captain Kirk, who then had about ninety men around him, concluded to capture the prison camp. Young Coburn was detailed to take a flag of truce into the camp and demand its surrender. he got into the camp at daybreak while its commander was still in bed. He gave the commander five minutes to answer his demand for sur render, and after a hurried consultation the demand was complied with. While these things were going on, young Coburn was too busy to write home, and his mother had addressed a letter of inquiry which fell into the hands of Capt. A. B. Cole, of Company F, First Ohio Heavy Artillery, and his reply to her in a letter which she carefully preserved, is an interesting document in Mr. Coburn 's career, and the substance of it is copied as follows: The latter was addressed from Knoxville, August 2, 1864, and reads as follows: "Your note to the Christian Commission was put in my hands this moment by one of the agents. You seek information of your son Oscar M. Coburn of my Company F, 1st O. V. H. A. I am surprised at this, for I had supposed that Oscar was very prompt in writing to his friends, and if he was not I know no good reason why you or any of his friends should hesitate for a moment to ask information of his captain, or rather of his former captain, for I am no longer so. Oscar is a first lieutenant in the Third North Caro lina Cavalry. Oscar is in excellent good health and in fine spirits, and is a number one soldier. He was in my tent until 11 o'clock last night, and went to town but a few moments since on business for his regiment. We the officers of his former regiment bought and presented him a sword. He is very well liked by his new friends. He went to North Carolina with Colonel Kirk of the Third North Carolina Mounted In fantry on his great raid when they captured Camp Vance and 300 prisoners. They had no white flag to send in when they made the demand for the surrender. Col. Kirk tore the tail or skirt from his shirt, and Oscar carried it in and made the demand for the surrender, which was complied with. In conclusion I would say that Oscar is very capable of taking care of himself, and you should give yourself no unnecessary anxiety on his account," etc. As the letter explains, after the capture of Camp Vance, Mr. Coburn and his comrades returned to the battery at Knoxville, and soon after ward he was commissioned lieutenant of Company D of the Third North Carolina Mounted Infantry. On December 20, 1864, he was wounded at the battle of Indian Creek. North Carolina, and for thirty-six yearscarried the bullet in his body. At the close of hostilities he resigned his command and returned to the homestead farm in Ohio. After his marriage he began his career as an independent farmer on rented land at Lueasville, but two years later bought a sawmill and was a lumber manufacturer two years. His chief business, however, con tinuing for twenty-five years was as contractor in the building of roads, railroads, bridges and similar construction work. He then entered the merchandise business in Harrisonville and in Harpster, Wyandotte County, for a year, following which for two years he operated a roller flour mill at. Stockdale, in Pike County. He next began investing in farm lands, buying a farm in Madison Township, and in time had about 600 acres. His home was in the country until 1895, when he moved to Portsmouth, bought a house on Summit Street and some unimproved land, and after making some improvements sold and bought l'-> acres of the Young homestead, where he lived until October, 1914, when he moved to New Boston, Ohio. Mr. Coburn has laid out in lots and sold a portion of this city property. At present his only business is in looking after his private interests. On July 24, 1867, Mr. Coburn married Elizabeth Deemer, who was born in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, a daughter of Jacob and Susan (Bonzoe) Deemer, natives of the same county. Grandfather Deemer was a native of Germany, while Grandfather Bonzoe was born in France. Mrs. Coburn 's parents settled in Madison Township, Scioto County, on a farm, in 1857, and her father died the same year. Her mother died at the Coburn home in 1884 in her eighty-seventh year. Mr. Coburn and wife have reared five children ? La Luna M., Lizadore. Ida Florence, Oscar M. and Ernest H. Laura is the wife of John R. Monroe, and their five children are Ida F., who married John Spry and has two daughters, Goldie and Charlotte; Enid, who married Sylvane Portee, and has a son Cullen ; John ; Edith and Harlan. The daughter Lizadore married John S. Violet, and their four sons are Raymond D., Charles J., Forest C. and Arlin. The daughter Ida is the wife of William M. Brown, and has a daughter Wilma. Oscar M.. Jr., married May Wheeler. Ernest married Ethel Dugan. For many years Mr. Coburn took a prominent part in the affairs of the Grand Army. He was a charter member of Bailey Post No. 164, and later organized Scioto Post at Harrisonville. He is affiliated with the Harrisonville Lodge of Knights of Pythias. He was reared in the Presbyterian Church, while Mrs. Coburn is of the Lutheran Church. | COBURN, Arthur Anderson (I2403)

| 16 | (Research):John T. East was a blacksmith by trade although he did try his hand prospecting for gold in California with his father. He lived in Castana for many years. When hard times struck and he lost his land holdings in the early 1890's, he moved his family to Hornick and lived only a short block from the Methodist Church which he helped to start. Shortly after the 1900 census, he moved his family again to Modesto, CA where his wife had family. He set up his blacksmith shop about ten miles west of Modesto. This was his last residence before his death. Links to memorials for his brothers and sisters: Wiley East, 1836-1862 Mary Mandana East Cottrell, 1840-1909 Philander Murray East, 1844-1911 Susannah J.

| 29 | (Research):Sylvester and Bridget were married when the 1850 NY census was taken. Sylvester is listed as the captain of a vessel and they have a boy living with them, Thomas Ryan, who is 3 years old, and a Mary O'Commen?, born in NY, who is 19. I suppose Mary could be a sister to Bridget and Thom. could be her son? Bridget's maiden name is Ryan, perhaps Thomas is a brother? No relationships are listed. There is a Mary Allen Underwood, single, born in Rhode Island about 1823, who died in Anamosa on 28 Nov 1889 buried in the Riverside Cemetery on 30 Nov 1889. Likely a sister-in-law to Sylvester. (Ancestry.com. Iowa, Deaths and Burials, 1850-1990 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc, 2014.) Why is Margaret born about 1851 while the history say they were married in 1853 - that's an error, she's listed in a census. Sylvester's daughter Francelia was living with Peleg Brown in the 1910 census and is listed as a cousin. Peleg Brown's mother was Elizabeth S.

| 36 | 163 Acre farm with brother Geo. for sale 1902 REMA Brother Robert & wife visit from Chicage 1903 William J. McCready was born in Jones county, Iowa, February 27, 1875. His parents, Robert W. and Ellen (Gault) McCready, were prepared as teachers and taught in the schools of Wyoming, Iowa, and other places until 1872, when they located on a farm near Wyoming, Iowa, where they lived for many years. William McCready, the grandfather of the subject of this sketch, was a pioneer in Iowa. Before the time of the railroads, he and his wife and two sons traveled by way of Burlington to Iowa City and settled there in the year 1844. The same year he fell a victim to the fever with which the country was infested and died. The family went back to the old home in Ohio, where the sons were educated and grew to manhood. Robert W. McCready went to Iowa again in 1870 but the balance of the family remained in Ohio. The McCreadys came to this country from Scotland and settled in or near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, about 1789, and many of the family live there at this date and at points nearby in Ohio. William J. McCready received his common school education in Oak Hill district school near the home farm. He attended one year the Savannah Academy in Ohio, a school that both his father and mother attended in their youth and of which an uncle was a trustee for forty years. He was graduated from Lenox College in Iowa in 1895, and from the law department of the University of Michigan in 1900 with the degree of LL. B. He practiced law in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, until 1903, when he became cashier of the Onslow Savings Bank, at Onslow, Iowa, an institution which he helped to reorganize and in which he was a stockholder and director. The same year Mr. McCready was married to Miss Mary Copeland, who had been a schoolmate of his at Lenox College. To them were born three children. The two sons, Joseph Robert and William Wick, are in school. The daughter, Marian, the youngest of the family, died at the age of fourteen months. In 1906 Mr. McCready finding that the confining work of the banking room was doing injury to his health, removed with his family to Perry, Iowa, where he became actively engaged in the retail lumber business as secretary of the Copeland Lumber Company, a position which he holds at the present time. In the year 1910 the Copeland Lumber Company sold its business in Iowa and its owners, consisting of Joseph Copeland, the father of Mrs. McCready, his two sons, L. A. Copeland and J. W. Copeland, and W. J. McCready, came to Oregon and settled at Hood River and invested in the apple business. This move proved a bad one. All lost heavily. But in 1914 the same owners organized anew the Copeland Lumber Company in Oregon and have not only recovered their losses but have met with abundant success. The Copeland Lumber Company now has fourteen retail stores of lumber and has a paid up capital of over three hundred thousand dollars. W. J. McCready is known in Forest Grove as a good booster. He has served numberless times on the Commercial Club of the city, has been a member of the city council, and served as local chairman of the Liberty Loan drives. He is an Odd Fellow and a life member of the Knights of Pythias Lodge. Mrs. W. J. McCready was graduated from Lenox College and received the degree of Master of Science. She taught in that college for a number of years and was preceptress of Clarke Hall, the ladies' dormitory. She is a member of Chapter D of the P. E. O. sisterhood and is also a member of the Monday Club and takes an active interest in promoting the welfare of the schools of the community, but her chief delight is in the keeping of her home and in the education and training of her two sons.

| 44 | Anamosa Eureka Anamosa, Jones co. Iowa March 8, 1906 Page 7 Column 2 (partial) The sad news of the death of Miss Ethel Butler at Los Angeles, California, was received here Tuesday morning. She passed away Monday. Ethel went to California a year ago last fall to make an extended visit with her aunt, Mrs. Hoffman, and to study music. She went in such good spirits, looking forward to her stay there with such bright hopes, and for a year her hopes were fully realized, but for several months her health has been on the decline, and the inherited tendency to consumption developed very rapidly and hastened her away. Ethel was a lovely young lady and many friends here will mourn her death. Her father went to Los Angeles about two weeks ago and had a few days to spend with his daughter. He started home with her body Tuesday, and if there is no delay the funeral will be at Bethel church next Sunday.
