William Haiflich. The gentleman whose name opens this biographical notice
is a member of one of the
oldest settled families of Rock Creek township,
Wells Co., IN, being a son of Isaac and Catherine (Pletcher)
Haiflich, but
was born in Richland Co., OH, April 12, 1837. The paternal grandfather as
well as the parents of William Haiflich were natives of the Buckeye state.
The Pletcher family came
from PA and early settled in Richland Co., OH,
also, and were agriculturists of the better class.
Isaac Haiflich, after marriage, rented a farm in OH on which he resided
until
about 1848 or '49, when he came to Wells Co., IN, and settled in
Rock Creek township, there being at
that time but two houses in Murray and
one house in Markle the intervening distance between the two
villages
containing a solitary farm, that owned by Jacob Miller, but now occupied
by William Coover, Isaac Haiflich here entered one hundred and sixty acres
of wild woodland, which he
lived upon and cleared up and developed it into
one of the best farms in the township. In politics Mr.
Haiflich was one of
the leading Democrats of Rock Creek township, and his religious faith was
that of the German Baptist church. He had led a pure and industrious life
and through his personal labors
acquired a fortune of eight thousand
dollars. To Isaac Haiflich and Catherine (Pletcher) Haiflich there
was
born the large family of twelve children, of whom there are five still
living.
William Haiflich was reared in the woods of Rock Creek township, and was
early
inured to hard work, which has redounded eventually to his pecuniary
benefit, as well as to his physical
and mental development. Whatever may
be said of the malarial conditions of the atmosphere in certain
portions
of the state of Indiana it may safely be said that Rock Creek township is
blessed with an invigorating circumambient belt of ozone, or oxygen, very
conducive to health and longevity,
and under these favorable circumstances
Mr. Haiflich developed into the prominent and influential gentleman
he now
is.
As the early services of Mr. Haiflich were called into requisition in
clearing
up the home farm, he had but few opportunities of attending
school, yet the time he was permitted to
devote to this purpose was not
abused and he succeeded in acquiring an education adequate for all
practical purposes. He has done as much work, in all probability, in
making Rock Creek township the
paradise it now is as any man of his age
within its boundaries. He managed the home place after leaving
school
until he had attained his majority and at the age of twenty-two found
himself
with a wife and forty dollars in cash, with which to start in
business as a renter of his father-in-law's
farm.
Mr. Haiflich was married, Mar 3, 1859, to Miss Sarah E. Sparks, daughter
of Aaron
and Huldah Sparks. She was born in Wells Co., IN, Feb 14, 1843.
To Mr. and Mrs. Haiflich have been born
eight children, of whom six still
survive and are named as follows: Eli C., Almeda Ann, William A.,
Samuel
H., Charles E. and Rosetta.
After Mr. Haiflich's marriage he settled on the Sparks homestead, which he
subsequently
purchased, and on which he resided until moving to his
present farm in November, 1897. Mr. Haiflich
owns at present three hundred
and twenty acres of good, well improved land and is considered one of
the
well-to-do and substantial farmers of Wells County In 1864 he responded to
his country's call to arms and enlisted in Co. E, 12th Regiment, IN
Volunteer Infantry. He took part
in several battles, served nine months,
and was then honorably discharged, being now the recipient of
a pension of
twelve dollars per month.
The Haiflich family are members of the Methodist Episcopal church at Sparks
Chapel,
of which Mr. Haiflich has been a trustee for several years. He has
served as class leader and also as
Sunday school superintendent. In his
political affiliations he is a Democrat, but although he is a faithful
worker in his party's interests he has never sought an office. Mr. and
Mrs. Haiflich, as may well be
inferred, are among the most highly
respected residents of Rock Creek township, and it may be a gratification
to the reader to refer to the biography of Eli Haiflich, to be found on
another page of this volume,
for further information concerning this
old-time family.

SOUR 315 TITL The family has traditionally said that Jacob Vananda
is
buried in this cemetery.
NOTE There is a granite monument in the center of the cemetery which
lists war service of people who are buried there. He is
incorrectly listed as "Capt. Jos. Vananda."
SOUR 316 TITL Baptism:
NOTE There is no baptism record for Jacob at either of the churches
that his parents attended in Hunterdon Co., NJ or Perry Co., PA.
NOTE The church records were
microfilmed by the LDS Church. James N.
Wallace rented the
film in 1994 and there is a photocopy of the exact
marriage entry
in his files. Cornelius Van Enden's daughter Maria
married Hugh
McKern the following year. No other mention of the Van
Enden Family
appears in the church records
NOTE It is not known for sure to which family Jacob Vananda
fits in. It
is either that of George and Mary (Vandegrift) Vananda
or Cornelius
and Catherine (Ackley) Vananda, who were first-cousins,
both being
grandsons of Paulus Van Enden.
NOTE For many years, it was believed that he was the son of George and
Mary, as Jacob always stated in records, as did his sons, that he was
born in the state of Pennsylvania. At the time of Jacob's birth,
Cornelius and Catherine were still living in Hunterdon Co., NJ. They
did not move to Cumberland Co., PA until shortly before the 1790
census. In any case, the Daughters of the American Revolution
accepted
research on this descent as fact and gave an authorized line
of
descent from George to Lucille Miller Wallace in 1974.
NOTE However, the current belief is that
Jacob and his brother Aaron were
the sons of Cornelius and Catherine.
NOTE If Jacob and his brother Aaron were the sons of George, where were
they in their early years? It was discovered in the early 1990's that
George and his family moved to Loudon Co., Virginia, where he died in
1794. It seems unlikely that he would have left his younger sons in
Pennsylvania. Also, they are not listed in any of the records of his
estate in Loudon Co..
NOTE Aaron Vananda first appears in written records in 1808, when he
settled in Ohio, in Tuscarawus Co., where he was married in 1811.
Jacob appears first in records in Union Co., Pennsylvania, where he
joined the army in the War of 1812. (He served in Captain John Uhle's
Company of Volunteer Riflemen. He joined the service in Selinsgrove,
in what is now Snyder Co..) He also served as a baptismal sponsor for
children of some of the daughters of Jacob Haflich at Grubb's
Bottschaft
Lutheran Church in Chapman Township in Union (now Snyder)
Co., PA. He married Elizabeth Haflich in Union Co. in 1816.
NOTE One aspect of this part of Jacob's
life points to the fact that he
could be the son of Cornelius Vananda
and Catherine Ackley. It is the
Lutheran religion. Cornelius and
Catherine were married at the Zion
Lutheran Ch. in Hunterdon Co.,
NJ. George Vananda married Mary
Vandegrift in a Baptist Ch., though
he and his cousin Cornelius were
both raised in a Dutch Reformed
congregation. Cornelius was buried
from St. Michael's Lutheran Church
in Greenwood Township, Cumberland
Co..
NOTE Also, Chapman Township of Union-Snyder Co. is very close, within
twenty miles, of the area where Cornelius Vananda lived in Cumberland
(now Perry) Co., Pennsylvania. (It is separated by a small strip of
Juniata Co..).
NOTE Jacob and Elizabeth Vananda left Pennsylvania and settled in Stark
Co., Ohio by the mid-1820's. A lot of Elizabeth's Haflich family had
already moved to this area. They did not purchase property until into
the 1830's. Then, they bought two different tracts of property in
Bethlehem Township. The first was a farm. The second was a lot in what
is now the village of Navarre, Ohio. (Perhaps ill health prevented
Jacob from continuing to farm the land.)
NOTE Jacob died in 1839 and was probably buried in the
Old Lutheran Cem. in
Navarre. If his grave had a marker, it disappeared
long ago. His widow
was also probably buried there. (A small stone
was placed there, in
their memory, in 1975.)
NOTE Jacob was incorrectly listed as "Capt. Jos. Vananda" on a large
monument in that cemetery that honors war veterans who were buried in
the cemetery. (This monument was placed in the cemetery in the early
twentieth century, long after all of Jacob's children were dead.)

NOTE Elizabeth Haflich was born in Chapman Township in what is now Snyder

NOTE They were married in the summer of 1816. Her father died that
Fall,
but he did not list her as married in his will. He had evidently
written his will before the wedding.
NOTE Elizabeth probably had their first children in Pennsylvania.
They
moved to Stark Co., OH in the late 1820's. They were in Perry
Township for the 1830 census and Jacob is listed in a tax docket for
1828.
NOTE What brought the family to OH? It must have been family. Jacob's
brother Aaron lived in Tuscarawus Co. which is directly under Stark
Co.. Elizabeth's brother Jacob lived in Stark Co. for a while and her
sister Anna Maria and her family lived in the city of Massillon.
NOTE After Jacob died in 1839,
Elizabeth never remarried. She remained a
widow till her death thirty-three
years later. This was very uncommon
for the time, especially when
there are young children to raise. (At
the time of their father's
death, James was only four years old and
Levi was not yet eight.)
She managed things fairly well on her own.
NOTE In 1855, Elizabeth filed for a "Bounty Land Application"
that was
based on her husband's service in the War of 1812. She
had to have
sworn affadavits from people who knew her and her husband
at the time
of the war. Her sister and brother-in-law, Catherine
and Daniel
Riblett of Gallion, Ohio were among those who signed.
If she was
awarded the land, it is not known who got possession
of it. Her older
sons lived and died in Cincinnatti, OH and her
younger sons lived in
Stark and Wayne Counties in Ohio.
NOTE In the 1860 census, Elizabeth was living with her youngest son James.
In the 1870 census, she was with Levi's family. Her occupation at
that time was listed as "retired."
NOTE Elizabeth Haflich Vananda must have had a rather happy
old age. She
did outlive some of her sons who had moved away. She
got to see quite
a few of her grandchildren.
NOTE When she died in 1872, her death was listed in the Stark Co. records
as being caused by "old age." She was buried in the Lutheran Cemetery
in Navarre.

NOTE His occupation is listed in different records as a carpenter, farmer,
or day laborer.
NOTE Levi enlisted in the Civil War in early 1863 and served in "A" Co. of
the 107th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He served at the Battle of Gettys-
burg and numerous other fights. He was injured in a charge in SC at
the end of the war and hurt his back, for which he applied for a
pension in 1881. (In records, he was listed as the company cook.) In
his pension application, he wrote that the war injury made it
difficult
for him to work. There was no indication as to whether or
not re
received the pension. Hopefully, he did!
NOTE He died in 1900 from a heart ailment. His obituary,
in the Massillon
Independent, lists him as the owner of one of the
largest collections
of Civil War memorabilia in the area. Nobody
knows what happened to
this collection.
NOTE There is an old tin-type portrait of Levi, in his Civil War uniform,
in existence. It had passed from his youngest daughter, Liz Dunbar,
to a great-grandson, Charles Essinger. The author had the good
fortune
to get it copied and made into an oil painting in 1975.
NOTE Levi loved his grandchildren. A great-granddaughter,
Kathleen Miller
Luta has a very ornate valentine card that he had
sent to his

SOUR 320 TITL Baptism:
NOTE No record was found in early Stark or Tuscaruawus Co. ch. books.
This would have been concrete proof as to which Lash family she
fits into!
NOTE Marraige Info from a Letter from Kalmin Smith of Okemos, Michigan to
James Wallace, 1989 No actual copy of this record has been found.
NOTE Mary Lash Vananda was a
very interesting person to research. This was
based on the fact
that it was initially very hard to determine which
of the Lash families
she belonged to. She also brought some English
blood tro the family
and it is through her that the family has its
Mayflower descents
and some British royal descents.
NOTE Three of the sons of Isaac and Eve Lash had daughters named
Mary who
were born in the years 1835-1838. Until her birth record
was found in
the family Bible, which I received as a gift in 1975,
it was
uncertain as to which Mary she was. In the 1850 census of
Bethlehem
Township, Stark Co., OH, there was a confusion as to where
she might
fit it. Andrew Lash had a daughter Mary aged 12. Daniel
Lash had a
daughter Mary aged 15. Mary Lash, the widow of John Lash,
had a
daughter Mary who was also 15 years old.
NOTE Initially the research had to be done through deduction. There was a
biography of Levi Lash, one of Andrew Lash's sons, in a Stark Co.
history. It listed that his sister Mary was married to a Dr. John
Parks. It was necessary to go through the estate papers of Daniel
Lash. He listed his daughter as "Mary Jane" Lash. There was a
marriage
record for a Mary Jane Lash and a Michael Kline. This left
the daughter
of John Lash. In the family Bible, she is listed as Mary
Ann. Oddly
enough, when her younger son Charles Foster Vananda died
in 1947,
his mother's name on his death certificate was listed as
"Mary Jane
Lash." Daniel Lash was married twice. His first wife was
Jane Van
Horn, who died within two years of the time they were
married. His
second wife was Elizabeth Ruth, the mother of his
children. Did
he name his daughter for his first wife? Did she hate
the name and
prefer "Ann" instead?
NOTE Mary Ann Lash was a fairly pretty woman. There is an old tin-type of
her that was taken around the time of the Civil War. (Perhaps her
husband carried it with him in the war!) She had short dark hair and
a simple smile. A portrait of her as an old woman accompanies that of
her husband. She aged well.
NOTE She was born in Bolivar in Tuscarawus Co., Ohio. She was the
middle
child of her parents's seven children. It is not known how
close Mary
was to her brothers and sisters. The brothers all moved
away,
although both of her sisters remained in the area and died
fairly
young.
NOTE Mary's parents bought
land in Bethlehem Township, Stark Co., in the
late 1840's. She was
about twelve years old when her father died.
NOTE Mary Lash married Levi Vananda when she was
twenty-one years old.
She was left alone with her two older children
while he was in the
Civil War. Around this time, too, her mother
either died or moved to
Indiana with her older brother Jacob. Her
mother-in-law probably
helped out, as she lived with the family
in the 1870 census.
NOTE Mary and Levi lost two of their children. Their older son James died
as a young man. The cause of his death has never been found, but his
sister Catherine Hattery used to put flowers on his unmarked grave
for many years on his birthday. The youngest daughter Lydia Ann died
as an infant.
NOTE Mary Lash Vananda was, in her own right, a property owner. She bought
her brother-in-law James Vananda's share of the family land in
Navarre.
She was sixty-five years old when her husband died. She
applied
for and received a Civil War Widow's Pension, which she
received
till she died in 1904. She was buried next to Levi in Union
Lawn
Cemetery in Navarre. Her grave was unmarked until 1975.

NOTE He came to America when he was about eight years old. From what
information there is known, his mother died on the voyage to America.
His father later remarried and he had numerous step-brothers and
step-sisters.
NOTE The family lived in Doylestown, Ohio where Peter made his First Holy
Communion in 1877 at the Church of Sts. Peter and Paul.
NOTE Peter grew up to be a coal miner
like his father and he settled in
Navarre, Stark Co., Ohio, where
he married Sarah Emma Vananda in
1885. She was a Lutheran and the
marriage was not accepted well at
first by her family.
NOTE They eventually had a family of seventeen children, of whom about
seven died in childbirth or infancy. There is an article from "The
Massillon Evening Independent," from 1914 that satates trhat they had
the largest family in Stark Co..
NOTE Peter Gorius also tended a small farm when the mines were
idle. He
suffered a sunstroke in the summer of 1914 and never
fully recovered
from it. He made a trip to visit his brother George
in Canada in
1915.
NOTE He died in 1916
and was buried in St. Clement's Cemetery in Navarre.
His body was
later disinterred for an autopsy and it was discovered
that his
brain had literally been cooked in the sunstroke. As a
result, his
daughters and their family were deathly afraid of being
outside
in the sun for a long period of time.

three years after her marriage to Peter Gorius. This appears in

NOTE Sarah Emma Vananda was originally
baptised in the Old Lutheran Ch. in
Navarre, OH. In fact, she was
the only member of her family whose
baptism could be located.
NOTE After she had been married to Peter Gorius for three years and had
had three children, she was baptized, in 1888, into the Catholic Ch.,
at St. Clement's CH in Navarre, OH.
NOTE Emma Gorius's life was her family. After all, she had
such a large
one, she could scarcely have any time for anything
else. In an age
when most women wore long hair, which they could
wear in many
elaborate ways, Emma chose to wear her hair cut very
short. All
existing pictures of her, from early years to close to
her death,
show her with short hair.
NOTE One of her favorite recipes for feeding to her small children was
"pap," a concoction of milk, corn starch, and vanilla. Her
granddaughter
Lucille Miller Wallace learned to make this from her
mother and
she fed it to her son and to his daughter Sarah in her
early years.
NOTE Just a year after her husband had died, Sarah Emma Vananda Gorius
also died. On a very cold day in December, 1917, she went out to get
food for her son John's lunch, and had a fatal heart attack on the
way home. She left six small children still at home. (They were
raised by her daughter Laura Eberhardt, who inherited the family
house, with some help from the others, including her married
children.
In fact, her daughter Mamie and her family moved down to
Navarre
for a few months in 1918 to help out.)
NOTE The Goriuses were buried in St. Clement's Cemetery.
For over fifty or
so years, their graves were marked only by a large
flower urn, which
Mamie and Jack Miller bought in the 1920's. In

NOTE One of the biggest regrets of Jim Wallace's life
was that he never

years before he was
born.
NOTE Mary
Elizabeth Gorius Miller was truly a nice person and everyone who
met her liked her. She was a good wife, mother, sister, daughter, and
mother-in-law. Her son-in-law, Chester Wallace, who could be very
critical of his wife's family, always said that he had the best
mother-in-law in the world. She always said nice things about people
or she didn't say anything.
NOTE When she was young, "Mamie," as she was known, was close to her
mother's parents, who lived near them in Navarre, Ohio. Her daughter
Kitty Luta has a valentine card that her Grandpa Vananda sent her in
1897. She always kept it. She made her First Communion around the
year 1900. There is a picture of her in the white dress, holding her
prayer book. Her daughter Lucille Miller Wallace had the prayer book
for many years and she gave it to her only granddaughter Sarah
Wallace,
when she made her First Communion in 1986.
NOTE She helped her mother take care of her younger
brother and sisters
and she loved taking care of children. Taking
care of children became
her life. She was one of seventeen children
and she had ten of her
own!
NOTE She
met her husnand, who was twelve years older than she was, through
his cousin, Emma Miller, who was her best friend. When they were
married in 1909, she wore a beautiful wedding dress that was made by
a Mrs. Figgenshoe in Navarre. It was silk and satin, with pleats and
satin-covered buttons and it had an 18 inch waistline. (Of eight
daughters, only Mae and Emma were ever small enough to fit into it.
Mae was married in it. Then, the dress was given to Josephine, who
still has it.) After ten children, she became a rather large woman,
as the common starchy diet of the time caused many people to gain a
lot of weight.
NOTE Jack Miller was not the easiest person to live with, as he was very
opinionated and stubborn. He liked to stay home when his wife would
have liked to go someplace. Bill Wallace, who used to work for Jack
Miller remembered often seeing Mamie Miller walking along the river
behind their house. This is what she did when her husband or the kids
got to her. She went out and walked instead of losing her temper.
NOTE When she died, in 1946,
he death was caused by a cerebreal hemhorage,
caused by a blood
clot hitting her brain. This came from an injury
that year, when
she banged her leg on a running board getting into a
car, or so
the family has always said. She died two days before
Christmas.
She had been coherent enough to already open her Christmas
presents
the day before. Betty, the youngest child, always felt bad
about
her dying so young (56 years) and blamed part of it on her
being
a brat and making her mother chase her around the house the
year
that she died.
NOTE She and her husband were married for thirty-seven years. It seems to
have been a happy marriage, though having an older husband caused her
to age quickly. She warned each of her daughters not to marry an
older man. Most of them took her advice, except for Lucille (eight
years difference) and my Aunt Arlene (fourteen years difference.) She
loved her own family in Navarre and did not get to visit them as much
as she wanted because her husband didn't like to go away from home
much.
NOTE She was a very good Catholic woman. However, she was not bigoted like
so many people of her time. She once told her daughter Lucille that,
"Religion is like going from Akron to Cleveland. You can take
different
roads, but you get to heaven any way."
Buried: 27 DEC 1946 St. Clement's Cem., Navarre, Stark

about people or she didn't say anything. Only once did she ever make
a remark against anyone. That was in 1943, at the funeral of her
brother-in-law, Jake Wein. At them time, my Aunt Vi was pregnant and
my Uncle Walter had not worked in three years. My great-aunt, Lydia
Miller, who told me the story, asked her if Walter was working.
Grandma said, "Take a look at Vi. That is the only kind of work that
he can do!!" When she was young, Grandma, or "Mamie," as she was
known, was close to her mother's parents. My Aunt Kitty has a
valentine card that her Grandpa Vananda sent her in 1897. She always
kept it. She made her First Communion around the year 1900. I have a

as well as the clipping from the Massillon paper that told of
the wedding
SOUR 246 TITL The marriage date is listed in the Miller Family Bible,
now owned by James N. Wallace
NOTE John Joseph Miller was born in Massillon, Ohio on May 9, 1878
and was
baptised at St. Joseph's Catholic Ch. on June 9, 1878 (This
was the
Irish church in Massillon. The Germans went to St. Mary's
Church.)
His baptismal sponsors were his paternal grandfather, John
Miller,
and his maternal grandmother, Mary F. McCarty. He made his
First
Communion at St. Joseph's on October 21, 1888. (There is a
picture of
him that day.)
NOTE As a
young man, "Jack," as he was called by the family learned to
play
the clarinet. He went on to play this instrument in the campaign
band that William McKinley used at his home for his "front porch"
campaigns for president. He also played for McKinley's funeral in
1901.
NOTE In his youth, Jack Miller worked as a coal miner, as did most of the
family in Navarre. His family moved to Akron, Summit Co., OH about
1901. He stayed in Navarre and worked in the mines. His father did
not like it that he stayed with the mines and wrote him a letter in
1909, which his grandson Jim Wallace now has, that encouraged him to
leave Navarre and get out of the mines. (He did this after he was
married in 1909, and moved to Akron with his bride, where he worked
in rubber factories for a while, before he went to work for the Akron
Sewage Disposal System, where he became a foreman abd stayed there
until he retired in 1943, aged 65.)
NOTE In Navarre, he met his future wife, Mamie Gorius, who
was twelve
years younger than he was. She was the best friend of
his cousin,
Emma Miller, third of his uncle Fred Miller's girls.
(Emma, later
Mrs. Fred Koontz, was maid of honor at their wedding.)
NOTE Jack Miller was short, barely 5 feet tall. He looked shorter, after
he broke his back in a fall from a railroad tressel at work in 1918.
He had blond hair and blue eyes. As he grew older, he lost most of
his hair. His grandson Jim Wallace probably got his baldness from
him. His wife was a few inches taller than Jack was. When they got
married, they had two wedding pictures taken. In one, he is standing
and she is seated. In the other, he is sitting and she is standing.
Cute, huh?
NOTE John J. Miller was very stubborn and outspoken. His mouth got him in
trouble from his childhood, whe he used to argue with his father at
the dinner table. (One story that he used to tell was that his father
used to tell him to shut his mouth and eat. He retorted with, "How
can I eat, if I shut my mouth?") His daughter Lucille had inheirited
his stubbornness and they often argued. They were very much alike.
NOTE His grandson Jim Wallace
could remember him a little bit, when he was
a child. He used to
give him pennies. He could remember when he died,
and the undertaker
came to take him away and "Jimmy" said (age 3),
"Good bye, Grandpa."
NOTE Jack Miller was good looking. His early pictures show that, and he
looks like he might have been arrogant or cocky. He liked to wear
hats, probably to cover his baldness. There are pictures of him in
captain's hats, a safari hat, and leather caps. He had a ruby ring
that his wife got him one year for their wedding anniversary. His
grandson Jim Wallace has it now, as his mother gave it to him when he
graduated from the ninth grade in 1966. He has only ever worn it on
special occasions, like graduation, marriage, his daughter's wedding,
etc.

Married: 26 OCT 1940 Akron,
Summit Co., OH
Buried: 12 DEC 1980 St. Clement's Cem., Navarre, Stark Co., OH
NOTE My father was actually the next-to youngest child of his parents.
But, since his brother died a few days after he was born in 1909, he
went through life as the baby of the family. His mother definitely
spoiled him and she continued to pamper him until she died when he
was almost 54 years old. He was not quite 15 years old when his
father died. As a part of Grandpa Wallace's estate, Dad was given a
trust fund and had a guardian appointed over him. He got the money
when he turned twenty-one years old, in 1927, and he flittered it
away, buying a car, which his best friend, Ray Wein, drove and he did
not. (He never learned to drive in his entire life and always went
places by bus or taxi cab.) He also spent the money on clothes and
girls. We have a picture of him dressed up with my mother's cousin,
Marie Wein. It is probably just as good that he spent the money when
he did. If he would have invested it, he might have lost it in the
stock market crash of 1929. At least, he had a good time. He always
liked fun! He loved to hunt and fish, mostly hunting. I have his old
hunting rifle, which he got when he was fifteen years old. He also
loved to play cards. Dad never could keep his money and would give
his last cent to someone if they needed it. He always spent his money
on cabfare to have my Aunt Vi and her family come out to the Cuyahoga
Street house for a visit. He wasn't very good at paying bills and he
had to file bankruptcy twice in his life.
Dad wasn't much for working, probably because his mother did so
much
for him. He never stayed with any one job for long, until he
was
older and worked at Portage and Fairlawn Country Clubs in grounds
maintenance. He tended to call off sick a lot, too.
Dad was good-looking. He was blond when he was young, and wore his
hair in curls until he was at least five years old. I have a picture
of him sitting on his dad's lap, in an old dress of his sister's,
with pretty blonde ringlet curls. (I found out at his funeral, that
my grandmother had entered him in a "pretty baby" contest when he was
a child and he won it. I would love to find a picture of it!!) His
hair got darker as he got older and then, it went snow white. He was
bald in the center of the top of his head, as I am. He let the hair
on the side grow long and he combed it over the baldness. He also
always wore a cap when he went outside.
He was sickly all of my life. (I was born when he was forty-five
years old, so I knew him for twenty-nine years.) He loved baseball
and was hit in the crotch with a hard baseball when he was young. He
always had trouble in that area, and eventually (in 1975) had a
urostomy operation and had a bladder pouch for the rest of his life.
He was in the hospital a couple of times when I was small. He was in
at least three times, when I was in my teens, including a heart
attack, almost broken back, and a broken leg. Still, he tried to do a
lot with me on Saturdays, which was the one day of the week (or
Sunday in alternating weeks, from the time of the divorce in 1959,)
when he could take me someplace. We went to a lot of movies. He and I
loved Disney's "101 Dalmations." We must have seen it a dozen times
after it came out in early 1961. We also ate out a lot and went to a
lot of stores like O'Neils and Polskys and Scotts 5&10 in downtown
Akron. He bought me a lot of toys, books, etc. Since he was not
around a lot, he certainly tried to buy my affection. He succeeded in
many ways, yet he disappointed me a lot, by making promises quite a
lot that he never kept. This hurt me quite a bit. Still, I try to
forget the disappointments and remember the good things about him. My
favorite memories of my father are from when I was quite young. Once,
when we lived on Chestnut Street, about 1956, in the middle of the
summer, he strung Christmas lights up in our attic and turned them
on. I loved it!
Also, in the late 50's and early 60's, he used to take me to car
dealers to see the new cars come out in the fall. I loved the
gigantic
cars of the time period. They were big and gaudy, but they
had class!!!
Dad quit working in the fall of 1969, my freshman year in college.
I
had to turn over some of my money then to replace what little
he gave
my mother for child support. He was sick a lot and constantly
had to
go to St. Thomas Hospital for some kind of operation or another.
He
always seemed to get better, though, in spite of his asthma,
heart
trouble, etc. Even after the urostomy, he came home. That
is, until
the fall of 1980. He fell in the stairway of the Elma
Street house
and broke his hip. He was in a lot of pain so I took
him to the
hospital. He ended up in there for six weeks, until he
died. While he
was there, his gall bladder ruptured and he needed
a couple
surgeries. (I contend that they were not needed, just a
ploy for
doctors to get Medicare money.) In his last days, he was
in a lot
of pain, moaning and crying a lot, and calling for his
mother. He was
finally baptised. He died on the same day that the
Beatle, John
Lennon was shot. He had such a rough end, that mother
insisted that
she did not want to be on life support machines. Mother
and I did
visit him sat the hospital every day. I do feel that she
did care for
him, at least at the end. As I wrote, they were so
much alike and had
so much in common.
Unfortunately, Sarah did not get to know my father very much. She
was
only two years old when he died. Still, he liked to watch her
play
and he talked to her a lot. (He was afraid to hold her.) She
can
remember him sitting in the Elma Street living room, while she
was
in her playpen.
NOTE He and mother
were married at the St. Martha Ch. rectory twice. They
were divorced
in 1959 and remarried in 1977, on their anniversary. He
and my mother
were too much alike, not to get along, but sometimes
they did argue.
Their main problem was his lack of work ambition. (It
was a bit
like his father and his first wife.)

447: ANDREW
J. BRICKLEY, of Union Township, was born in Mahoning County, Ohio,
son of Andrew J. and Jane A.
(Wolfcade) [sic] Brickley, who reared a
family of eleven children in Ohio, and all except two
eldest sons and one
deceased came to Indiana in 1864, settling in Huntington County. Two sons,
John W. and Martin V., came previous to this date, settling in Wells Co. A
sister, Samantha, came
the next year after the eldest brother made a
location. Of the children living besides the three
mentioned are—Milo,
Andrew, Benjamin, Franklin A. and George W. Three unmarried daughters
died
in Ohio. Andrew J. was sixteen years of age when he first became a
resident of Huntington County, and he remained with his father until he
reached his majority.
When twenty years old he was married to Miss Sarah
E. Haflich, daughter of Samuel and Sarah (Baney)
Haflich. The father was a
native of Pennsylvania, and married in Ohio. They settled near Crestline,
Richland Co., where six children were born—Adaline, Caroline, Catherine,
Hannah, Louisa
and Sarah. The family removed to this State, settling in
Rock Creek Township, Wells County, on
a farm now owned by William Cover.
Here the parents remained until their decease. The children
were all
married previous to the death of their parents—Adaline became the wife of
William Maddox; Caroline married John A. Dilley; Catherine is now Mrs.
John W. Brickley; Hannah
is the wife of Solomon Brown; Louisa married
William Cover, and Sarah became the wife of our subject
January 16, 1868.
Mr. and Mrs. Brickley commenced housekeeping on the farm of Mr. Brickley’s
father in Huntington County, and four years later Andrew purchased a farm
in Union Township, this
county. After clearing away the trees he built a
small frame barn, into which they moved. The
land was still in its
original condition. The same fall a frame house was built, which they at
once proceeded to occupy. Two children, Liberta E. and Clement A., were
born in Huntington County,
and Minnie M. was born in this county. They
lived on this farm until the new town of Banner was
surveyed and platted.
Levi Waikel had already engaged in the mercantile business, and our
subject in the spring of 1883 purchased the stock and fixtures, taking
possession of the goods,
and in the autumn of that year erected a handsome
resideiice. Two years later he sold out to John
Taylor and purchased a
grist-mill at Kelseyville, Allen County, intending to remove it to Banner
City. Later he brought the machinery to the village, placed it in
position, and now operates with
his machinery the handle and ball bat
factory of the Miller Bros. In connection with this his
machinery
furnishes the motive power for the saw-mill of Levi Waikel, which began to
operate in 1886. A mill has been erected for grinding feed, and he has all
the machinery for making
flour. Although a young man he is a pioneer in
this branch of business in the new town. During
the late war Milo was
drafted in Ohio, but his father procured a substitute. John W. and
Martin V. were drafted after their removal to Indiana. John was disabled
and rejected; Martin
served during the remainder of the war, was
discharged, was taken sick on the way home and died
in ten days after his
return.
448: George Brickley, deceased, was a native of the State of
PA, and when a
young man removed to Trumbull Co., OH, where he made his home for many
years. He was married in Trumbull Co., to Miss Belinda Wolfcale, a native
of that county. To them
were born ten children, all of whom came with them
to Wells County, IN, in 1851. Their eldest
daughter, Mary, is the wife of
Abram Woodward and now lives in Ossian, Wells Co.; Peter is a prosperous
farmer of Lancaster Township; Alfred resides in Rock Creek Township;
Elizabeth married Harrison
Taylor, and both died in Rock Creek Township;
Mrs. Nancy Jane Ogden resides in Bluffton; John
died in early manhood;
Lewis is a prominent business man of Bluffton; Wesley resides at Markle,
in Huntington County; Mrs. Isabella Zink lives in Union Township, and Mrs.
Laura Allen lives at
Markle. On coming to Wells County with his family Mr.
Brickley located on section 1, Rock Creek
Township, where he improved a
farm on which he resided about fifteen years. He then sold his homestead
and bought land near Markle, Huntington Co., where he lived until his
death, which occurred in
1878 at the age of sixty-seven years. His widow
still survives, and is making her home with her
daughter, Mrs. Allen, at
Markle.
449: J. A. Brickley, member of an old and prominent family
of Wells Co.,
resident here since the early '50s, has contributed not a little to the
prestige of the family name by his individual career as a successful
teacher and latterly as a
banker at Uniondale. Mr. Brickley was born in
Rock Creek Township of Wells County October 8, 1870,
a son of Alfred and
Barbara (Haflich) Brickley. His grandfather was George Brickley, who was
born in the State of PA and when a young man removed to Trumbull Co., OH.
He married there Miss
Belinda Wolfcale and they became the parents of ten
children. In 1851 the family came to Wells
Co., locating in section 1 of
Rock Creek Township, where George Brickley improved a farm and made
it his
home for about fifteen years. Afterthat he moved to Huntington Co., bought
another farm, and died there in 1878 at the age of sixty-seven. Several of
his children became
well known citizens of Wells County.
Alfred Brickley was born in OH, as was his wife, but grew up in Wells Co.
and spent an active and prosperous career as a farmer in Rock Creek
Township. He died July 19,
1907, and his wife on April 25, 1916. Their
children were: William, deceased; Sarah, deceased;
Katherine, who married
John Ditzler; Anna, deceased; John Milo; Lewis, who married Alice Nash;
Andrew, who married Mary Lang; Mary, who became the wife of John
Gardenour; Joshua; Cora; Nettie,
deceased; George, who married Alice Crum;
and Joshua A.
J. A. Brickley grew up on his father’s farm and obtained the larger part
of his education in the public schools of Sugar Grove, Rock Creek
Township. At the age of twenty
he qualified as a teacher, and was actively
engaged in educational work in different parts of
his native co. from 1890
until 1908. He left the schoolroom to take a place in the State Bank
of
Uniondale, of which he is now cashier. He has been cashier of that
institution since it was organized and is also one of its directors.
Mr. Brickley is affiliated with Uniondale Lodge No. 259, Knights of
Pythias, and Ossanippa Tribe No. 357 of the Improved Order of Red Men at
Uniondale. He is a democrat
in politics and a member of the Lutheran Ch.
On November 11, 1911, Mr. Brickley married Miss Cecile Lesh, daughter of
James and Sarah (Staver) Lesh of Union Township. The Lesh family have been
residents of Wells
Co. for several generations. Mrs. Brickley’s brothers
and sisters are: O. E. Lesh, who married
Margaret Stine; Ada, wife of Ray
Bumphrey of Huntington, IN; Grace, unmarried; Ella, wife of Amber
Orr of
Warren, OH; and Edna, wife of Charles Kleinknight of Fort Wayne. Mr. And
Mrs. Brickley have three children, Darrell K., Ola Irene, and Brooks
Franklin.
NOTE: The following information comes from BRICKLEY researcher James A.
Brickley, jbrickleyfarmcredit-ffcb.com:
"...I stumbled across the biographical sketch of my grandfather J A
Brickley (Joshua A) who died before I was born. In the sketch one of my
grandmother's sisters
Ada was listed as being married to Ray Bumphrey. His
last name was Pumphrey and when I knew him
he was married to her sister
Grace. Whether he was at one time or other married to two of her
sister's
I do not know. In any case my aunt Ola had done a good bit of work on the
family history before her death and I will check back to see if I can
clarify the question so
anyone else looking at this sketch won't be
confused.
"To fill in the facts Ray Pumphrey was married to Ada Lesh first and upon
her death he subsequently married her sister Grace Lesh. There were no
children to my knowledge
to either spouse. If you need more info please
let me know.
"My name is James A Brickley and my home address is 110 Ridge Rd., Rumson,
NJ 07760. My office phone is 201-200-8001."
450: Lewis A. Brickley, senior member of the hardware firm of L. A. Brickley
&
Sons, of Bluffton, was born near Warren, in Trumbull Co., OH, April 29,
1842, a son of George and Belinda (Wolfcale) Brickley, the father being of
German ancestry and
the latter of English descent. The father is now
deceased. L. A. Brickley, our subject, was brought
by his parents to Wells
Co., IN, in June, 1851. He was reared to the avocation of a farmer;
remaining on the home farm till he grew to manhood. He was united in
marriage July 28, 1864, to
Miss Catherine Lesh, a daughter of John and
Harriet (McAfee) Lesh. She died at Bluffton, March
27, 1879, leaving five
children—George Mervin, Thomas Jefferson, Cora A., Peter Francis
and
Jennie Etta. At her death Mrs. Brickley was a memnber of the Rock Creek
Lutheran Church. Mr. Brickley was again married January 4, 1881, to Miss
Flora A. Stonebrook,
of Bluffton. Mr. Brickley was a soldier in the war of
the Rebellion, enlisting as a private in
1864, in Company D, Fifty-first
Indiana Infantry. He was engaged in the two days' fight in front
of
Nashville and also participated in several skirmishes. May 21, 1865, he
was discharged for disability caused by a wound received in front of
Nashville, December 16, 1864.
After his discharge he returned to Wells
Co., where he was engaged in farming in Rock Creek Township
until 1876.
He then removed to Bluffton and became associated within Samuel Lesh in
the hardware business, under the firm name of Lesh & Brickley. In 1883
John E. Beil succeeded
Mr. Lesh, when the firm name was changed to
Brickley & Beil. In Nov, 1885, Mr. Beil was succeeded
by Mr. Brickley's
sons, George M. and Thomnas J., when the present firm of L. A. Brickley &
Sons was formed. Mr. Brickley is a member of the Lutheran and his wife a
member of the Baptist
church.
451: Peter Brickley The subject of this sketch is among the oldest living
settlers
of Wells County his residence of over a half a century covering
the most important period in the
history of this part of the state. He is
a native of OH and the son of George and Belinda (Wolfecall)
Brickley,
both parents born in PA and descendants of old pioneer families of that
commonwealth. In an early day George Brickley moved to OH where he lived a
number of years, subsequently
selling his possessions there and migrating
to Wells Co., IN where he purchased a partially improved
farm which he
made his home for a considerable period. This place is situated in the
township of Rock Creek and is now one of the oldest and best farms in that
section of the country.
Late in life Mr. Brickley changed his residence to
a farm a short distance south of Markle and
it was there that he spent the
remainder of his days, dying at a good old age, honored and respected
by
the people of his own and other communities. He is remembered as a man of
enterprise and untiring energy, progressive in his ideas and successful in
the accumulation of
land and other property. Of his family of eleven
children the following are still living in the
county of Wells: Peter,
Alfred, Lewis, Nancy Jane, Ogden and Laura.
Peter is the second in order of birth and first saw the light of day at
Lordstown, OH Aug 1, 1832. He was reared in his native state, received
such educational discipline
as the indifferent subscription schools of
those times could impart and, while still a mere lad,
was obliged to
assist his father with the varied labors of the farm. He was early taught
lessons of industry and economy and grew to manhood strong and healthy in
body and with a fixed
purpose of making the most of such opportunities as
came his way. He remained on the home place
until his twenty-second year
and then began life's struggle for himself, choosing the time honored
vocation of an agriculturist as the pursuit most suited to his tastes and
inclinations. Mr. Brickley
lived in OH until 1851, after which he removed
to Wells Co. with his parents, Aug 24, 1854, Mr.
Brickley married Mary Ann
Smith, of Rock Creek township. At this time he was given a farm of sixty
acres by his father which he afterwards sold and with the proceeds
purchased a farm in Lancaster
township. Addressing himself to the task of
improving his land, he was rewarded in due time with
a finely developed
farm, to which additions were made at intervals when favorable
opportunities presented themselves.
Mr. Brickley's career in Wells County was signally successful from the
beginning. He continued to increase his holdings until his real estate
amounted to three hundred
and twenty-five acres, all admirably situated
for agricultural purposes, and with the passing
years and corresponding
growth of the county these lands advanced in value until they now
represent a fortune of no small magnitude. As a farmer he was enterprising
in all the term implies
and soon earned the reputation of one of the
county's most successful and progressive agriculturists.
In addition to
tilling the soil he added much to his capital by buying and shipping live
stock, also made considerable money raising cattle of his own, a business
in which his success
was most encouraging. He has always been a far-
sighted business man and everything in which he
engages seems to prosper.
After acquiring a sufficiency of this world's goods to make him
independent, Mr. Brickley, in 1896, left the farm and moved to Bluffton
where he has since lived
in honorable retirement. Blessed with an
abundance of everything calculated to minister to his
material comfort, he
is now passing his declining years in the midst of friends and companions
cheered by the thought that his competence was accumulated by honorable
means and that his friendships
were won by conduct above reproach.
Mr. Brickley was early led to take an active interest in political matters
and ever since old enough to vote he has been an earnest and
uncompromising supporter of the Democratic
party. He never missed an
election when able to go to the polls and his activity and leadership
have
contributed much to the strength and success of Democratic principles in
Wells Co. during the fifty-two years of his residence therein. Early in the
'70s he was elected
justice of the peace of his township and continued to
hold the office by successive elections
until positively declining longer
to serve, having held the position for a period of eight years.
In 1890 he
was nominated and elected a member of the board of county commissioners,
the most important office within the gift of the people, and discharged
the duties incident thereto
for six years, having been chosen his own
successor in 1894. It was during Mr. Brickley's incumbency
as a member of
the commissioner's court that many of the most important public
improvements were inaugurated and carried to successful completion. Among
these were the purchase
of one hundred and twenty acres for a county farm,
and the erection of the necessary buildings
thereon, the construction of
two large bridges across the Wabash, besides a general improvement
of the
public highways and other work of much importance to the people. Mr.
Brickley's record as a public servant proved eminently satisfactory to the
people, as well as
affording him inward consciousness of having well and
faithfully performed his duty. His judgment
with respect to public matters
was seldom if ever at fault, and his county is largely indebted
to him for
much of the prosperity which it now shares with its sister counties of the
state.
Personally Mr. Brickley is a quiet and unassuming gentleman and his
relations with his fellow citizens have always been of the most pleasant
and agreeable character.
He is not much given to speech making, but makes
his presence felt by his actions, which have
always been correct, and by
his influence, which has ever been on the right side of all great
moral
questions and issues. His popularity with all classes of people is only
bounded by the limits beyond which his name is not known and it is a
compliment nobly earned and
fittingly bestowed to class him with the best
and most enterprising of the county's epresentative
citizens.
In the year 1900 Mr. Brickley suffered a sad bereavement in the death of
his faithful and devoted wife, since which time he has made his home with
a daughter living in
Bluffton. Mrs. Brickley was a lady of beautiful moral
character, a sincere member of the Presbyterian
church and, with a
Christian's faith to cheer her, she entered into rest on April 19 of the
above year. She bore her husband twelve children, namely: Andrew J., for a
number of years one
of the county's successful teachers; James; Louisa M.;
Mary C.; John Z., formerly a teacher in
the public schools; Elzy M., Cora
J., Maggie, Frank, Arlie A. and Artha, all married except Artha
and
Maggie.
452: JOHN R. DITZLER. The biographies of enterprising men, especially of good
men, are instructive as guides and incentives to others. The examples they
furnish of patient
purpose and steadfast integrity strongly illustrate
what it is in the power of each to accomplish.
Some men belong to no
exclusive class in life; apparently insurmountable obstacles have in many
instances awakened their dormant faculties and served as a stimulus to
carry them to ultimate
success. The instances of success in the face of
adverse fate would seem almost to justify the
conclusion that self-
reliance, with a half chance, can accomplish any reasonable object. The
gentleman whose life history is herewith outlined is a man who has lived
to good purpose and achieved
a much greater degree of success than falls
to the lot of the average individual. By a straightforward
and commendable
course he has made his way to a respectable position in the world, winning
the hearty admiration of the people of his county and earning a reputation
as an enterprising,
progressive man of affairs which the public has not
been slow to recognize and appreciate.
John R. Ditzler, the present superintendent of the Wells Co. infirmary,
was born in Galion, Crawford Co. OH Oct 9, 1853, and is the son of George
and Elizabeth (Saurbaugh)
Ditzler The Ditzler family is from Reading PA
and there George Ditzler was reared. Upon attaining
maturity he learned
the trade of a carpenter and also carried on farming. He was married in
his native state and afterward moved to Crawford Co. OH. He had run a
grist-mill in PA but upon
his removal to OH he sold the mill and at Galion
he was engaged in farming and also worked at
the carpenter's trade. In
1863 he emigrated to Rock Creek township, Wells Co., IN, bought a farm
and
made that his home during the remainder of his life, dying May 6, 1892. He
was the owner of one hundred and sixty acres of land and on this he made
most of the improvements
and achieved an enviable reputation as a
progressive and successful agriculturist. He was the
father of the
following children: George married Lillie Teeple and now resides near
Markle IN; Frank married Lula Sechler daughter of Benjamin Sechler; Susana
is a resident of this
county, and the wife of Henry Biggans; Mary, now
Mrs. Samuel Schoch; Sarah is the wife of Jacob
Alshouse; Belinda is the
wife of Lemuel Lyons; Elizabeth is the wife of John Haiflich, and Alice
is
the wife of John Taylor.
John R. Ditzler was reared upon the home farm and was early inured to the
toil and incessant labor incident to the life of the average farmer. He
was given the advantage
of such educational facilities as were afforded in
the common schools of the neighborhood. Upon
attaining his maturity he was
married and at once commenced to farm for himself, which occupation
he
followed until his appointment as superintendent of the New Lancaster and
Markle gravel road, a position which he very satisfactorily filled for 12
years. At that time
the state law was changed so that the county was
divided into three districts and in the spring
of 1895 he was appointed to
the oversight of one district, filling this position for about 18
months.
His performance of the duties of these positions was eminently
satisfactory and reflected great credit upon him. So strongly did he
intrench himself in the confidence
of the people that, in 1898, he was
appointed by the county commissioners to the responsible position
of
superintendent of the Wells Co. infirmary, being chosen over 35 other
applicants for the position. So wise and discriminating has been his
management of the institution
that he has been successively reappointed to
succeed himself and is still occupying the position.
He is good natured,
kind hearted and sympathetic and accomplished much towards the alleviation
of the condition of the inmates of the institution over which he presides,
and by his sound judgment,
wise discrimination and careful economy has
kept the expense account down to the minimum, at the
same time taking
proper care that the inmates are properly provided for in all their
requirements.
John R. Ditzler was united in marriage Sep 14, 1873, with Miss Malinda
Brickley, daughter of Alfred Brickley ex-trustee of Rock Creek township.
This union has been a
most happy and congenial one and has been blessed by
the birth of the following children: Etta
is the wife of John A. Miller;
John C. married Miss Mary Hawkins and resides in Rock Creek township,
this
county; Nora and Pearl are unmarried and still have their home under the
paternal roof. Besides these children Mr. and Mrs. Ditzler are rearing an
orphan child, Inez Guardhnour
[i.e. Gardenour], and are giving to her the
same loving care and attention they gave to their
own children.
Politically Mr. Ditzler has always affiliated with the Democratic party
and has been an active and influential worker in the interest of the
party. Religiously he and
his wife are faithful and consistent members of
the Lutheran church, of which he has served as
elder. Mr. Ditzler's
character is endowed with many noble qualities that contribute so much to
his eminent usefulness and the esteem in which he is held by the citizens
of Wells Co. His kindliness
of heart, his unvaried cheerful disposition,
his wisdom as a counsellor and advisor among his
neighbors and friends and
his modest, unassuming manner in every relation of life are among the
most
distinguished characteristics which have attracted to him the many warm
friends whom he prizes so highly and whose warm personal regard he will
always retain.
NOTE: John R. Ditzler's name is either Katherine Malinda or Malinda
Katherine Haflich.
453: Jacob Lesh is a native of PA and was born in Berks Co., Sept 25, 1835, but
has lived in Wells Co., IN, since he was thirteen years old, when he was
brought hither by his
parents.
The Lesh family is of German origin, but the ancestors of the family from
which the gentleman whose name opens this sketch descends, were among the
early settlers of the
Keystone state. It may be added, as a matter of
honor to the Lesh family, that the grandfather
of Jacob Lesh, Peter Lesh,
was a participant in the war of the American Revolution. John Lesh,
the
father of the subject, was born in Berks county, Pennsylvania in the year
1800. He married Miss Mary Snavely, who was a native of Lebanon co., the
same state. She bore
him six children, namely: Elizabeth, John, Jacob,
Peter, Jonas and Daniel, twins, all of whom
are now deceased except the
subject. The mother of this family died when the subject was a small
boy,
and the father subsequently married Harriet McAfee, who bore him eight
children, viz: Sarah, Catherine, deceased; Prescilla (sic), deceased;
Samuel, deceased; James,
Susan, Matilda and George W. After his father's
death, John LESH bought the old homestead, which
he subsequently sold, and
in 1848 moved to Indiana. He came by wagon and was twenty-one days on
the
road, finally reaching Union City, whence he came to Rock Creek township,
Wells Co. Here he settled on eighty acres of land which he had purchased
the year previous for
nine hundred dollars and on which was a hewed-log
house. Thirty acres had been placed under cultivation,
and it was on this
farm that he passed the remainder of his life, dying in 1864, in the faith
of the Lutheran church. He was a Democrat in politics and always took an
active interest in the
success of his party, though never aspiring to
public office. He was an honest, enterprising and
hard working man, and
was highly respected by all who knew him.
Jacob Lesh was educated in the district schools of Wells Co. and assisted
on the home farm until twenty-one years old. He then worked at the
carpenter's trade, which he
thoroughly learned. Later he purchased a
threshing machine, and still later bought eighty acres
of land, the farm
on which he now resides.
At the age of twenty-five years, Jacob Lesh married Miss Mary A. Gregg, a
sister of the late W. H. Gregg, of whom mention is made elsewhere in this
volume. Mr. Lesh, at
his marriage, erected a small house, in which there
was born to him one daughter, Mary L., now
the wife of A. J. Miller, and
in which Mrs. Lesh died. The second marriage of Mr. Lesh took place
Nov 9,
1872, to Miss Elizabeth Gilbert, a daughter of Martin and Lydia A. (Houtz)
Gilbert, and who was born in Rock Creek township, Wells Co., IN, Oct 6,
1852. To this union have
been born six children, namely: Charles E., born
April 3, 1875, but now deceased; George L., born
August 8, 1877, is
married to Clara Farling and is farming in Rock Creek. Fred C., born June
22, 1881, received his preliminary education in the district schools and
was subsequently graduated
from the Northern IN Normal School and Business
College at Valparaiso; Henry A., who was born
Mar 29, 1884, was graduated
from the common schools in 1901, and is now a teacher in Chester township;
Maggie C. was born Sep 29, 1887 and Jessie Esther, July 5, 1893. Mrs. Lesh
is a member of St.
Paul's Lutheran church in Rock Creek township, and in
politics Mr. Lesh is a Democrat. No family
is more highly respected than
that of Mr. and Mrs. Lesh, and if an upright and useful life entitles
them
to the high regard in which they are held, it may truthfully be said that
no family is better entitled to it. Such people are a credit to any
community.

The Haflich family, of Wells Co., IN, is of German descent, but the
progenitors of Eli Haflich were among the early settlers of PA where
Isaac Haflich, his father,
was born and reared. Eli Haflich, now among the
most prominent farmers of Rock Creek township,
was born in Richland Co.,
OH Dec 25, 1840, and was brought by his parents, Isaac and Catherine
(Pletcher) Haflich, from OH to IN in the spring of 1848 and has made Wells
Co. his home ever since.
Isaac HAFLICH, on his arrival in Wells Co.
entered the tract of land now owned by Jacob Beil,
which was then a mere
wilderness. This tract he succeeded in clearing up and in converting into
a profitable farm in due course of time, beginning, as a matter of course,
in the usual pioneer
way, by erecting a small log cabin for shelter and
clearing a small field for the cultivation
of corn, on which to subsist
until better provisions could be secured. There were at that time
but few
people at Murray and a few at Markle, and the intercourse between these
but at rare intervals. Nevertheless Isaac Haflich acquired one hundred and
sixty acres of land
and at the time of his death was a well-to-do man, the
result of his own industry and good management.
He was a great hunter, and
it was through this that he got his first financial start.
Eli Haflich was the seventh born in a family of twelve children, of whom
there are only five now living, viz. William, Eli, A. J., John, and
Barbara, wife of Alfred Breckley.
At the early age of eight years, Eli
HAFLICH was brought to Rock Creek township, Wells Co., and
assisted his
father in clearing up the land, but did not neglect attending the common
school whenever he found an opportunity and thus secured a very fair
education. Eli continued,
until he attained his majority, to faithfully
assist his father, and after becoming of age worked
one year for him at
the wages current at the time, and then, until his marriage, hired out to
whomsoever needed his services.
In November, 1865, Eli Haflich was united in matrimony with Miss Catherine
Derr, whose parents came to Wells County, Indiana, from Richmond co., OH,
about the year 1862.
Mr. Haflich at the time of his marriage was
comparatively poor and had but fifty cents in cash
and a horse that cost
him one hundred and forty dollars, but the animal soon died and he was
left without either horse or cash. He now owns two hundred and forty acres
of good land, nearly
all of which he has acquired through his
indefatigable industry, which was shown even when a boy,
by running a
threshing machine and later by raising hogs and cattle. In 1894 he erected
his present fine brick residence.
To the marriage of Eli Haflich and Catherine Derr, have been born five
children, viz: William A., Ervin L., Millie, Franklin and Jennie, all
married with the exception
of the youngest. Mrs. Haflich having been
called away by death, Mr. Haflich married for his second
helpmate Mrs.
Lavina L. (Zink) Haflich, widow of John H. Haflich. Mr. Haflich is a
devoted member of the Lutheran church, in which he has also served two
years as superintendent
of the Sunday school, during which period he has
not missed a single Sabbath. In his political
affinities, Mr. Haflich is a
solid Democrat and has filled the office of township assessor eight
years.
He is one of the influential citizens of Wells Co. and is honored and
respected throughout its length and breadth.
455: Among the conspicuous residents of Rock Creek township, Wells Co., IN,
is
Samuel A. Haflich, of whose ancestors mention is made on another page of
this volume. Samuel A. Haflich is a son of Jacob and Anna (Hoover)
Haflich. Jacob Haflich was
born in PA from which state he migrated to OH,
where he married. Samuel A. Haflich was born in
Rock Creek township, Wells
Co., IN, Jan 23, 1849, his parents having moved here some time previously.
The father purchased one hundred and seventy-five acres of wild woodland,
with but two houses
between his place and Huntington. He had a capital of
eighteen dollars in cash when he came here,
but managed to build a log
house, which answered his purpose until 1862, when he erected a fine
brick
dwelling and here reared his family, but in 1880 moved to Markle, where
his death occurred.
Jacob Haflich was a charter member of the Horeb Lutheran church and he,
William Wert, Samuel Fafe, Samuel Haflich and John Working constituted the
first congregation,
of which Jacob was one of the first elders. He was a
Democrat in politics, was very popular with
his party and under its
auspices was elected to several positions of honor and trust, including
that of township trustee, which office he held four years. To Jacob and
Anna (Hoover) Haflich
were born five children, viz: Charlotte, deceased;
John, deceased; Reuben, deceased; Samuel A.,
the gentleman whose name
opens this sketch, and Mary A., wife of Jacob Farling.
Samuel Haflich was reared to agricultural pursuits on the old homestead,
but in his boyhood days was permitted to attend the district school during
the winter seasons.
During the summers he continued to assist on the farm
until he had attained the age of twenty-one
years, after which he hired
his time to Jacob Shiveley for eight months at the same class of work.
He
then worked for his uncle a while, then went to Michigan, where he went on
the railroad for a short time as a brakeman, but returned to the old farm,
on which he took a
lease.
In 1874 Mr. Haflich was united in marriage with Miss Sarah A. Lesh,
daughter of Jacob and Margaret (Erhart) Lesh. This young lady was born in
Rock Creek township,
Wells Co., in 1857, and was educated in the common
schools. This union resulted in the birth of
four boys and two girls, as
follows: Clara A., deceased; Jacob H. was graduated from the Markle
high
school, and later took a commercial course at Indianapolis and
subsequently became a teacher in the common schools of the county;
Clifford C. was graduated from
the Markle high school and also from the
Huntington school and Danville Commercial School; William
A. has received
a common school education; Curtis E. and Cressie. The parents of this
family are members of the Lutheran church and are among the most highly
respected residents of
the county. In politics Mr. Haflich is a Democrat
and is a faithful worker for his party, but
has never sought any personal
political preferment.

456: JACOB BEIL, an early settler of Wells County, engaged in farming and
stock-raising on section 11, Rock Creek Township, was born in Mifflin Co.,
PA, February 10, 1820,
his parents, John and Sarah (Earnest) BEIL, being
natives of the State of PA, and of German descent.
When our subject was 8
years old his parents removed to Trumbull Co., OH, settling in a dense
wilderness, where Jacob was reared on a frontier farm, his education being
such as could be obtained
in the log cabin subscription schools of that
early day. His youth was spent in assisting his
father clear and improve
his frontier farm, he remaining under the home roof until reaching his
majority. Sep 23, 1840, he was united in marriage to Miss Catherine
Harshman, a daughter of Jacob
and Elizabeth Harshman, who were natives of
PA, and of German ancestry. To Mr. and Mrs. Beil were
born six children
Philip A., residing in Trumbull Co., OH; Amanda, wife of Andrew Hafflich,
of Union Township, Wells Co.; Parintha, widow of Joseph Hafflich, late of
Rock Creek Township;
John E., of Bluffton; Henry A., at home with his
parents, and Elizabeth, who died in early childhood.
After his marriage
Mr. Beil settled on a farm in Trumbull Co., OH, where he followed
agricultural pursuits until he came to Wells Co., IN, in the year 1864.
He then purchased a farm
on section 9, Rock Creek Township, where he lived
for nine years, when he bought and removed to
his present farm on section
10 of the same township, where he has 100 acres of well improved land,
which he has acquired by his own exertions, and is classed among the self-
made men of his township.
In his political views Mr. Beil is a Democrat.
Both he and his wife are members of the Methodist
Episcopal church.

489: NOTE We don't know for sure which family Jacob Vananda fits in, either
that of George and Mary (Vandegrift) Vananda or Cornelius and
Catherine
(Ackley) Vananda, who were first-cousins, both being
grandsons of
Paulus Van Enden. I contend that he was the son of
George and Mary,
as Jacob always stated in records, as did his
sons, that he was
born in the state of PA. At the time of Jacob's
birth, Cornelius
and Catherine were still living in Hunterdon Co.,
New Jersey. They
did not move to Cumberland Co., PA until shortly
before the 1790
census. In any case, the Daughters of the American
Revolution accepted
my research as fact and gave my mother an
authorized line
of descent from George.
If Jacob and his brother Aaron were the sons of George, where
were they in their early years? I found out just a couple of years
ago that George moved to Loudon Co., Virginia, where he died in
1794. Aaron first appears in written records in 1808, when he
settled
in OH, in Tuscarawus Co., where he was married in 1811.
Jacob appears
first in records in Union Co., PA, where he joined
the army in the
War of 1812. (He served in Captain John Uhle's
Company of Volunteer
Riflemen.) He also served as a baptismal
sponsor for children of
some of the daughters of Jacob Haflich at
Grubb's Bottschaft Lutheran
Ch. in Chapman Township in Union (now
Snyder) Co., PA. He married
Elizabeth Haflich in Union Co. in
1816. One aspect of this part
of Jacob's life points to the fact
that he COULD be the son of Cornelius
Vananda and Catherine
Ackley. It is the Lutheran religion. Cornelius
and Catherine were
married at St. Michael's Lutheran Ch. in Hunterdon
Co., New
Jersey. George Vananda married Mary Vandegrift in a Baptist
Ch.,
though he was raised in a Dutch Reformed congregation. Also,
Chapman Towbship of Union-Snyder Co. is very close, within twenty
miles, of the area where Cornelius Vananda lived in Cumberland
(now
Perry) Co., PA. (It is separated by a small strip of Juniata
Co.).
Another "magnet" that could have drawn Jacob Vananda to the
Union
Co. area was the fact that one of the Corson half-brothers
of George
Vananda lived in this Co.
Jacob and Elizabeth Vananda left PA and settled in Stark Co., OH
by the mid-1820's. A lot of Elizabeth's Haflich family had already
moved to this area. They did not purchase property until into the
1830's. Then, they bought two different tracts of land in
Bethlehem
Township, in what is now Navarre, OH. Jacob died in 1839
and was
probably Buried in the Old Lutheran Cem. in Navarre. If
his grave
had a marker, it disappeared long ago. (I placed a small
stone there,
in their memory, in 1975.) Jacob was incorrectly
listed as "Capt.
Jos. Vananda" on a large monument in that Cem.
that honors war veterans
who were buried in the Cem.. (This
monument was placed in the Cem.
in the early twentieth century,
long after all of Jacob's children
were dead.)
