Notes for Ruth Evelyn
Shultz:
Lynn Allen DeWitt's
narrative about his mother, Ruth Evelyn Shultz, included in an ammended copy of
Ruth's family cookbook:
Ruth, the
"Grandma" of this cookbook, and Edwin were married on January 25,
1941 in Marion, Indiana. During World War II they resided in Warren, Ohio
(Trumbull County) where their oldest children were born. Following the
war, they returned to Indiana (Lancaster Township, Huntington County) where
their other children were born. In 1960, they moved to Grant County, Indiana.
After this time Ruth became interested in the Daughters of the American Revolution
(DAR), finding that at least one verifiable ancestor participated in the war
for
American
Independence, (Nicholas Beaver also "Beiber" or
"Beiver") reference being made in DAR Patriot Index, page 48.
Ruth became a member of the General Francis Marian chapter of the DAR, later
becoming regent (president) of same.
"Grandma"
began this genealogy with reference to her great - grandfather, William Beaver
Shultz. His mother, Mary Beaver (b. July 9, 1798 in Huntingdon Co,
Pennsylvania d. Sept 28, 1858) was the daughter of Anthony Beaver and Susanna
Clapper (b. April 1775 d. Sept 24, 1849). Anthony Beaver (b. Jan
26, 1761 Huntingdon Co, Pennsylvania d. Sept 7, 1839), was the son of Nicholas
Beaver (b. March 8, 1739 in Alsace-Lorraine, France d. March 29, 1812 and is
buried near Chambersburg, Pennsylvania) and his wife Mary Wathkin
( b. circa 1740
d. circa 1765). They were married Sept 27, 1757. Nicholas Beaver's
service during the Revolutionary War was as a private 7th class, under Captain
Samuel Royer, 8th Battalion of Cumberland County (Pennsylvania)
Militia. He also is listed as a Unknown 7th class, Fifth Company, First
Battalion of Cumberland County Militia as of August 1, 1780. Nicholas Beaver
would have been Grandma's Great -great -great -great grandfather. Ruth was diagnosed as having Ameotropic
Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), more commonly known
as Lou Gherig's
disease, in the fall of 1992. She passed away on December 22, 1993 in the
Marion General Hospital, Marion, Indiana, at 11:40 AM.

Notes for Jacob L.
Myers:
Tim DeWitt assumption:
My great-aunt Virginia
(wife of my grandpa Myers' brother Irven) gave me the name and birth/death
dates of my g-grandfather Myers (Jacob L. Myers), the first name of his wife
(Susanna) and where they were married, Waupecong, IN. She also gave me the name of my g-g-grandfather, Jacob W.
Myers. After discovering the
information contained on Jim and Sue Hammer's Home Page about a JOHN W. MYERS
and his son JACOB WILSON MYERS, I am certain that JOHN W. is the father of my
JACOB W. Aunt Virginia told me that
JACOB L. had married ANNA METZLER in Waupecong, IN, not far from my boyhood
home in Amboy, IN. The information on
the mentioned web page states that both JOHN W. and JACOB WILSON MYERS died in
Waupecong. I remember my grandfather
talking a great deal about Waupecong, and took me there for several visits when
I was six to eight years old. It is my
assumption that it is unlikely, given the amount of matching information that
I've found, and understanding exactly how small the town Waupecong really is,
that the MYERS' mentioned in Jim and Sue Hammer's Home Page could be any other
men than my g-g-grandfather and g-g-g-grandfather

farm in Nappanee, Elkhart County, IN, is listed on the National Register of
Historic Places and is now called, "Amish Acres". See their web site at: http://www.amishacres.com/

Christian Stahly was
born in Rhinebron, Germany, July 27, 1820. His parents were Henry and Barbara
Stahly, natives of the same town. In November, 1835, they left Germany, landing
in New York, and came to Starke County, OH, where they spent the winter, and in
the spring removed to Wayne County, OH; her Christian lived eight years, then
came to this county. He was married in Wayne County, OH, February 3, 1842, to
Miss Fannie Haussauer, daughter of Peter and Mary haussauer, of Wayne County,
OH, wh was born August 27, 1822; her father came from Germany and was among the
first to settle in Eastern OH. Mr. and Mrs. Stahly have a family of 7 children:
Peter, born October 2, 1842; Barbara, Februrary 25, 1844; John, Setember 23,
1846; Moses, July 27, 1849; Magdalena, November 10, 1851; Solomon, July 19,
1853; and Samuel, July 28, 1858.
Mr. Stahly entered his
farm in this township in October, 1840, and moved on it in July, 1842; since
that time this farm has been his home; her his children were born, and lived
until they married and found homes for themselves. In his financial affairs Mr.
Stahly has been quite successful' he has a pleasant home and a good farm of 157
ares, besides helping his children to secure homes. He first entered 80 acres,
and when he settled on it there were but two settlers within a mile. The roads
at this time were not cut out, and he was forced to cut his own road for two
miles in order to reach his land. He has long been a member of the Amish
Church.
Christian bought the
80 acres that is today Amish Acres for his son Moses. The first buildings were
constructed in 1873. Moses' father-in-law, Noah Nissley, purchased the farm
when Moses moved to Reno County, Kansas, and built the main house in 1893.
Manases Kuhns, Nissley's son-in-law took over
the farm and remained its owner until it was sold at auction following
his death. Today the Stahly-Nissley-Kuhns farm is listed on the National
Register of Historic Places.

Christian S. Stahly -
Olde Buffalo Inn Bed & Breakfast - Nappanee, IN, picturesque with its
majestic 10,000 square foot red banked barn, red brick sidewalks, traditional
windmill, all of this enclosed by a classic white wooden picket fence. The
history of the Inn extends over a 150 year period. Originally built in 1840 by
a pioneer farmer, the house precedes the establishment of Nappanee in 1874. By
the turn of the century it had acquired the name "buffalo farm"
during a time when the bison were characteristic of the area. The barn echoes with
a history of its own as many of the surrounding Amish families once attended
church here. Today the original
farmhouse still exists, after having endured restorations two decades ago to
preserve its historical character. Also
at that time, additional rooms were constructed to surround the original part
of the house, thus providing the modern conveniences of today.

History
1969
Foreword
This is a history of
most of the eighteen townships of Monroe County, OH. The material contained
herein was accumulated from the "History of Monroe County, OH," by
H.H. Hardesty & Co., Publishers, dated 1882, articles from various
newspaper files, and items written by interested individuals. Collating and
printing of the history was made possible by the efforts of Mr. Harold P.
Haley, secretary of the Woodsfield Chamber of Commerce, Woodsfield, OH. Booklet
compiled in Woodsfield during the year 1969.

Switzerland Township
Switzerland Township
was organized on January 1, 1827, containing 28 square miles. It embraces 12
stations of original Township 4 of Range 4 and 12 sections 15, 21, 27, and 33
and parts of other sections. It is the Northeastern Township of Monroe County.
Big Run and Johnston's
Run empty into the OH River and drain the Eastern part of Switzerland Township.
Cumming's Run empties into the OH River in Salem Township but has its source in
Switzerland Township. Negro Run and Payne Run, branches of Sunfish Creek, drain
the Southern and the Western parts of Switzerland Township. Cat's Run, a branch
of Captina Creek, drains the Northern part of Switzerland Township.
The soil in
Switzerland Township is formed largely of disintegrated shale and sandstone. It
is naturally less rich than most limestone soils but the German and the Swiss
farmers did wonders with the cultivation of the land, making it the best farm
land in the State of OH. In 1880, almost every farm had a small vineyard of
fruits. In contrast with the slovenly character of much of our native American
farming, there is an air of neatness and thrift.
Early settlements of
Switzerland Township were made in the Valley of Big Run and along the OH River.
John Keller was engaged in opening an improvement on the head waters of Big Run
soon after settlements were begun in this Township. At that time, he lived in
Belmont County which was some distance from his place of employment. His two
daughters, aged eight and ten, carried his dinner to him. One day, they missed
the right path and became lost in the forest. People from the surrounding
settlements searched for them and, after three days, found them on Negro Run,
not far from Sunfish Creek. In their terror upon finding they were lost, they dropped
the basket containing the dinner and lived on roots for three days.
-- "History of Monroe County, OH," by
H.H. Hardesty & Co., Publishers, 1882
-- It is assumed that
the John Keller written about in the
"History of Monroe County, OH," is the same John Keller listed
in this ancestry report. This assuption
is based on the following reasoning:
1) It is known that
the John Keller listed in this genealogical account was married to Katharina
Kenreich and had at least one daughter, Margaretha Keller (b. 2/12/1818 in OH).
2) The historical
account states that Swizerland Twp., Monroe County, OH was organized on January
1, 1827. It also states that "John
Keller was engaged in opening an improvement on the head waters of Big Run soon
after settlements were begun in this Township" making the date of the
incident spoken of in the account most likely Btw. 1827 - 1828.
3) The historical
account states that the John Keller was the father of two daughters, age 10,
and 8.
4) Margareth would
very likely have been the ten year old daughter of John spoken about in this
historical account.

Notes for Henry
Shultz:
[Gary Schmermund
<gleesch@worldnet.att.net]
According to the
History of Huntingdon and Blair Counties, PA, Henry Shultz came to Lincoln
Township, Huntington County at a "very early date," probably about
1797. Huntingdon County had been formed out of Bedford County in 1787, formed,
in turn in 1771 from Cumberland County. Lincoln Township, in Huntingdon County,
was formed out of a larger Hopewell Township.
Henry settled and
reared his family on a farm in Lincoln Township, south of Borough of
Marklesburg, (James Creek P.O. )owned in 1883 by David Fouse, about a mile and
a quarter south of Marklesburg. He resided there until his death in 1830.

Notes for Peter
Blosser I:
Jeff Bower
<Bower3@tidalwave.net> says, "I have Peter's father as Peter
BLOSSER/BLASER from PA. I got this info
from a book entitled "A History of Shenandoah County." The info is on pages 585 and 586. Peter I
was born abt 1716 in Switzerland and came to York Co, PA. He was a Mennonite as were many of his
descendants."
Source: http://momzhome.suite.net/8b.html
Peter Blosser, the
second, son of Peter the First, was born in PA, March 19,1752, and having
determined to leave home as stated before, he packed all his property in a bag
having an opening in the middle on the order of saddle pockets, and bidding
adieu to his native state, he started for Virginia where he arrived about the
year 1776; he was married to Magdalene, daughter of Blastius Bear.

Taken from
"Genealogical History of the Blosser Family as Known in America," by
S H Blosser Dayton Virginia Dated in 1903.
As far back as I can trace by careful inquiry, it appears that Peter
Blosser (whom I will call Peter the First) came from Switzerland-place and
province not known to me. It is handed down to me by tradition, that he became
singer and jester to some great person or nobleman of that country, but in time of war he escaped and went to
France, where he stayed for a while, but war coming on in France he left that
country and came to America, August 27, 1739, in the ship "Snow
Betsy" Richard Buden, Commander,
sailing from Rotterdam, Holland-last from Deal-190 passenger, and settled in
the state of PA, at a creek called Cadoris, near Little York in York county,
where it is supposed he married and had sons and daughters born unto him. He
was also an ordained minister in the Mennonite Church. In the course of time his
wife died, and his sons becoming somewhat unmanageable, he said he would get
them a cross stepmother-so marrying for his second wife a Miss Knicely, who was
sure enough a cross wife, on whose account he had to give up his ministry, (he
at one time owned two farms, but lost the greater part of them,) and her
stepchildren scarcely being able to live with her left the parental roof as
they became of age and went to Virginia, and settled in Page county near
Stonyman near Blue Ridge.

Notes for William
Addington, Sr.:
William Addington was born in London,
England, and grew up to young manhood in that city. He had excellent
educational opportunities, and in consequence thereof, acquired a good
education. About the time he reached the age of twenty, a steady stream
of emigrants was then flowing from the city of London and other parts of Great
Britain Into the North American Colonies. Young Addington was also seized
with the desire to join the throng and emigrate to America, much against the
wish of his parents. They tried to dissuade him from going but
failed. At length his father, seeing that he was determined on making the
adventure, furnished him with money to pay his passage overseas and supply his
needs for some time afterward. On landing at Norfolk, he traveled widely
through eastern VA and North Carolina, and finally located near Culpepper
Courthouse, Va. Here he married Margaret Cromwell, about the year
1774. When the Revolutionary War began, William Addington volunteered,
and was made a commissary officer in Washington's Army. He served in this
capacity until the Surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, October 19, 1781, an
event which he witnessed. Soon after
the War, William Addington moved to Caswell County, N.C., where he remained a
short time. Hearing of a rich country in southwest VA where the land was
good, the range fine, and bear, deer, and wild turkeys in abundance he decided
to seek this wonderful country. In the summer of 1785, he, in company
with twelve other families, come to Russell County, VA where he located in the
Vally, north of the mountain, near Hyter's Gap.
