This frontier was the wilderness extending north from the set- tlement at Delaware, Ohio. The time referred to here includes the years from 1800 to 1860. Our frontier is roughly bounded on the west by the Olentangy and Whetstone rivers. The Greenville Treaty Line is the north boun- dary, which includes parts of what are now Marion and Morrow counties. The east boundary of our frontier is the east branch of Alum Creek. The picture on the cover is our "frontiersman" William Sharp. William Sharp's story is quoted in part from the Delaware County 1880 History. The topography presentation is a very excellent, well researched article by Stanley Baker. This article is separately available in its' en- tirety. Also included are notes taken by Genevieve Cole from a seminar at Defiance College in 1975. The story includes many word-of-mouth stories that have never been written. An effort has been made to include the names of the first settlers. Finally, it is explained how the town of Ashley was born at the end of the first fifty years. The principal cause was the new railroad. Ashley as a town was the new and exciting focal point of the surroun- ding area. This community contributed to most of the population and business of the new town in a radius of at least ten miles. We wish to state the following, although it is out of context in time. It has never been recorded elsewhere. Arlington Cline was an enthusiastic historian of the Ashley com- munity. George Watson was Alum Creek's replica of Henry Thoreau. Two others should be mentioned: George Thurston and Eddie Weiser. These men have written, or preserved our local history. They deserve honorable mention, although they lived since the Civil War, and therefore are not included in the Story. The Quaker community has been ably recorded elsewhere by Mordecai Benedict and Lawrence Westbrook. 3 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 4) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/c864c798436fccf413800c1e1bc8045c.jpg 41156782f384e4784055c298891fdd8d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to page 5 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE ASHLEY, OHIO AREA AND ITS IMPACT ON EARLY SETTLEMENT The development of the Ashley, Ohio area can best be un- derstood by the study of the topography and its interrelated en- vironment. Physical benefits and physical limitations can be seen which directly affect the way human populations have settled the area. The topography has affected the historical human population as well as the prehistoric population. The glacier receded or melted northward at an even rate depositing the rock called till. The till was evenly deposited in a level surface called a ground morraine. The till, being very porous, filled with water after the recession of the glacier. The filling continued until a continuous subsurface watertable developed. Since the character of the ground morraine is slightly rolling, natural lakes and marshes formed in the low areas. The nature of the till and drainage system has established a pattern in the Ashley, Ohio area. The majority of the area was poorly drained with a shallow watertable. Marshy areas were interceded with occasional rises. The drainage pattern since the initial formation changed little until the 1840's. Before this time the settlement pattern was dictated by this topography. The settlement of the first whites from 1800 to 1840 resembles the pattern of the Indians before them. The Whites used the rivers and the adjacent trails for transportation that had been used by the Indian for centuries. The well drained bluff areas were the first lands sold and cabin sites were superimposed on Indian sites. Whites and Indians alike drank from the same springs. Another important reason for settlement near the streams was the use of the flowing water as a source of power. Soon the land along the rivers was sold, and the poorly drained interior was sold, clearing began and cabins were built on the highest 5 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 6) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/33cc143303341e39fc6538a0abf38377.jpg f55d36e1ded052f7cca02cf70582b7f4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Around 1840 the forests were largely beginning to be cleared and the land began to receive direct radiation from the sun which caused increased evaporation. The watertable began to decline from this, and as a result of increased run-off, pumpage of wells, drainage of tiles and open ditches. The physical conditions of the topography, its drainage and the forest tended to slow the development of the area away from the major streams. There was a need for this land, however, and it was soon converted into useful and productive land. The railroad, which was planned and built about 1850, found the topography generally free from obstacles except for an occasional marshy area. The railroad crossed a frontier road that ran between Norton, Ohio and Mount Vernon, Ohio. Ashley was soon established as a local com- mercial center.

Description An account of the resource [page 8] [corresponds to page 7 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] 1800 One of the first settlers in the area was William Sharp, who is pictured on the front cover. William Sharp was born in Virginia. He came with his father to Marietta, Ohio in the very early part of 1800. When William was twenty-one his father bought him a large number of medical books (which were then considered authoritative) hoping his son would be a doctor. William instead chose the woods. Shouldering his rifle he headed for Indian country. In the course of the next several months he lived on the game he shot. In 1809 he found himself near Norton. He remained there for three or four years, and then joined the army and headed north to Sandusky. In 1814, after the war, he married Sarah Boyd, the adopted daughter of John Duncan. He built a cabin for his wife, and though attached to her, he could not resist the temptation of going into the woods on a hunt,-- and often would be gone for weeks. He was a good provider, and had the reputation of being the greatest "bee-hunter" in the vicinity. He also knew the Indian languages well. He finally settled down and bought sixy acres from Joseph Cole. Some of his relatives visited him from Marietta, and brought his medical books. He now read them and started a practice for which he refused pay. (He died in 1861 and is buried in Marlboro Cemetery. He left numerous descendants in Ashley and the surrounding vicinity.) At about the same time as Sharp arrived in Norton, Henry Foust arrived and married May Olds. Her father, Confort, was probably the first settler in the area being near Windsors Corners. Others gradually began to move in; there were still many Indians to be found in our frontier territory. (These notes from the seminar at Defiance College in 1975 give us some perspective on the very early times.) There was a Jesuit mission at Auglaize as early as 1639. The Jesuits were in contact with roving bands of Indians and important tribes. 7 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 8) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/9b54c1ff7373727de93300271c2f800d.jpg 6a1cdb5090c444e9f271303bf9827ca6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 9] [corresponds to page 8 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] In support of this, silver crosses have been found buried in Ohio, apparently given to the Indians by Jesuit priests. (This information was contributed by Prof. R. Baby.) Silver crosses have also been found on a hill just south of Nor- ton, less than a hundred years ago. (This information was contributed by Mrs. Buck.) By the late 1600's the Indians in what is now Ohio had been greatly decimated by tribal warfare. In the early 1700's Shawnees, Delawares, Miamis and Wyandotts were here in Ohio in great numbers. They were here as hunters and trappers, and also participating in violent warfare - especially in the Revolution, and to some extent as late as the War of 1812. The northern border of Delaware County was originally the Greenville Treaty Line. This treaty was signed in the summer of 1795 and carried a little more respect than most of the previous Indian treaties. In early 1800, the revolution was concluded (or so they thought). The white settlers were coming! The government encouraged it. Some settlers came as missionaries to save the Savage Souls, but more white people were just land hungry. They justified themselves (if they thought of it) that the Indians were letting the land go to waste. There were some rich land speculators, but very many people were poor and hungry. Some young couples were braving the wilder- ness to rear their young families in a "new world of freedom." Howes' History of Ohio says that "the trees in this country were often a hundred and fifty feet tall. Sixty feet to the first limb." (That seems impossible!) At this time few knew what a tornado was! The storms seldom penetrated the thick and heavy trees. These enormous trees has huge root systems and with the deep bed of humus that covered the forest floor, the water was held like a great sponge, and only drained off gradually. There were very few floods. In the years preceding the white people the Indians hadn't made much headway getting the trees whittled off for their corn patches. (Although they did have some large corn patches in what is now the City of Delaware.) Then the ambitious white men tackled the job - you can see for yourself what they have accomplished. The first cabins were on Indian trails close to rivers and streams. Many were small trails. A large trail of importance was one that followed the east bank of the Olentangy north of Delaware and "forded" the Whetstone just 8 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 9) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/e03f50db97e4766414486037188e0f6a.jpg 30e52bf3c10b712d50445a9ecdaa16c3 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

From there the trail went to Clariden, a big Indian camp. (This information was contributed by B. Wallace.) A Foust family were Squatters for a time in the forks of the rivers. A Worline family had a cabin south of the forks on the east bank. (This information was contributed by the Foust family.) A very important Wyandott trail came to Marietta through Peru township (now Morrow County) to Upper Sandusky. (This in- formation was contributed by L. Westbrook.) There were bear, deer, wildcats, wolves, foxes, muskrat, weasel, milk, beaver, skunks, squirrels, and raccoons. The last two destroyed much precious food for early settlers. Roving Indians often helped themselves to food at cabins. (An Indian notion that food was for the hungry.) They were quite often drunk on white man's whiskey, after trading with white men. Some Indians were very friendly and often visitors at cabins. The children frequently played together although some women seemed hysterically afraid of them. One white boy was visiting a camp on what was later the Upper Panhandle road. He had a great time, and stayed for supper. He thought the meal was delicious, and wanted more. Then he looked in the kettle where [image of powder horn] Powder horn now owned by descendant James Roush and handed down in the McClish family. 9 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 10) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/24785478505e9f6eef55f2190d25ea81.jpg 648cc48e972d8df8de2df1c9e3a239a6 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 11] [corresponds to page 10 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] the hollow eye sockets of a coon appeared to be looking up at him. That was too much! Later, with maturity, he realized that food is food, whether it be brains or hind legs. The wilderness had a certain toughening effect. Then there was the time the runner came through warning the people, and telling of the uproar at Fort Morrow. A Dix woman jum- ped on a mule and raced to where the men were clearing trees, screaming, "I can hear the Indians murdering over in Kingston right now!" With that she just threw away the tin coffee pot that she had been carrying! (This story was told by Joe G. Main.) The Cole woman up the river from Dixs reacted to the news by throwing all the valuables (iron kettle, silver and such) in the swamp. These things were never recovered and are in the bottom of what is now called Cap Cole Bay. She then threw the young ones in the covered wagon and "lit out" for Franklinton. (Fortunately it was just a scare.) A woman was working with a wooden bucket of lye water in the doorway of a cabin. (This cabin was on the west bank of Sharp's Run or Indian Run.) She was startled by the sudden appearance of an In- dian. She simply threw the lye water in his face. (This story was told by the woman's great-granddaughter Minnie G.) Then there was William Drake and his wife and family. (A small book could be written about them.) When Drake and one son "Riar" arrived at Norton (which at that time consisted of one cabin and one man named Reed), it finally "soaked through" to Drake that this was what the land agent Kilbourne had described as "A veritable Heaven on Earth!" He did some fine cussing! Drake then said if Norton was Kilbourne's idea of Heaven, he'd hate to know what his idea of Hell would be! (Drake had been written about in Delaware, Marion and Morrow County Histories. His tombstone is still standing today in a small cemetery. The south fence of the cemetery is on the old Greenville Treaty Line.) In the Stanton Town cemetery is a tombstone in memory of Mary Eaton Thatcher. When Mary was eight years old she was captured by Indians. She lived with them four years and was released. Two boys in their early teens were coming on foot over an Indian trail, headed west. It turned cold suddenly, with a blizzard. They had about given up and were expecting to freeze to death! Some Indians caught up with them just in time, showing them how to make a snow house. The house had a breathing hole and with their backs together, 10 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 11) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/4da87dc61f7518ef64bea96ea5589865.jpg 61b01e26a4e8287952583a16b991ef87 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

When the blizzard was over and the wind died down, they were as good as ever. These boys' last name was Wheeler. (This story was told by a descendant in South Woodbury.) A house just east of South Woodbury is said to have been built by one of Cornwallis' officers after the Revolution. South of the Sherwood road is a very thick woods, with a wet spot in the center between two high spots. It was once called the Jim- mie Martin woods. Quincy Main tells the story passed down in the family that this woods had been one of the last Indian camps. When the Indians knew that they had to leave, they told their white neighbors, "The white men will never have our beautiful spring!" There has been no spring since, just a very wet spot in the ground. For many years there was a most peculiar tree west of the Olen- tangy. Its trunk, roots, and limbs had large wart-like growths. It was said that an Indian warrior caught his sweetheart with a white man. He killed them both and buried them at the roots of this tree. (This story was in a school history supplement fifty years ago.) (This story was told by Warren and Leonard.) In Andrew Jackson's time (1829-1837) Congress suddenly em- powered the State Militia to round up all Indians, put them on flat boats on the Ohio river, and head them for reservations in Oklahoma. The Indians were crushed! (There weren't too many left in this vicinity.) One Indian at the camp north of Delaware said he would not go! He hid on what was later called the Broom Corn Farm. In the evening, as the sun was setting, he came out of hiding to get a drink of water. The place was where stepping stones crossed the Olentangy. A white man and his son were watching. They shot and killed the Indian, and buried him. More than a hundred years later a descendant of the white man confessed to a stranger that the murder had haunted the family all through the years. Now he had to tell someone. He, himself, was the last of the family and now an old man. (This story was told to an OWU professor.) An Indian squaw brought the Weiser family a beautiful covered basket. The squaw explained it was to thank them for being so good and kind to her people. This was at the time the Indians were forced to leave. (about 1832.) 11 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 12) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/71319f2eac4809aa418e474f3f7ca66c.jpg 34cd05b377c98d7d4f12cd0abc98a4b4 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

At present it is on display as a loan to the Johnson House at Piqua.) There were other stories of how the Indians liked to come back to Sharp's Run or Indian Run to boil down the maple sugar water in the spring. Sharp's Run or Indian Run originates on the southwest part of the land that is now Ashley. It emptied into the Olentangy at the foot of the hill at the Old Marlboro Cemetery. This stream was once fed by many springs. At one swampy place you could see the "fox fire" when conditions were just right and your eyesight was good. There was also the story of a Wyandott Chief Scionto that often came back to the Marlboro vicinity as late as 1820. He was very friendly with the white people. In the middle of the 1830's the Indians were all gone from Delaware County - only once in a while did a stray one appear. Harrison's Trail (war road of 1812) was west of the Olentangy, but east of what is now Route 23. On the east side of the river the Mansfield-Delaware road was surveyed in 1814. It was a toll road. (Many roads and Indian trails overlapped.) This road came from Mansfield, through Westfield, Windsors Corners, Marlboro to Delaware. To the east running north and south was the first road built by the state in 1822. It was very important, as it was the principle means of moving grain and livestock to eastern markets by way of Lake Erie. It was also called the Worthington-New Haven road. There was an early road from Mt. Vernon through South Wood- bury, Westfield to Norton. Norton was laid out as a town two years before Delaware. At first it seemed to have fine prospects. It was close to Fort Morrow. This vicinity had considerable excitement at the beginning of the War of 1812. Captain Drake was in charge of a group of men that had gathered north of Waldo to ward off the possible approach of Indians from the north, in the beginning of the War of 1812. While Drake was absent, the men went to sleep around the camp- fire without posting a guard. When he came back and saw the lack of discipline, he yelled "In- dians." The men, having had no previous military experience, panicked. The panic spread to most of the surrounding communities. 13 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 14) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/3cd4c9c50d932003f0eb7de86d0fd2c8.jpg 297222d0bf1708309c6e966bcbbf472f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It was owned by the William S. Drake family near Fort Morrow, and was inherited by Eva Richardson Schaaf. Preceding this, Col. Baldin and Col. Bixbee with money and foresight moved into the once big Indian village site, at what is now Delaware. Bixbee had charisma, and business ability. He was very suc- cessful for twenty years. In this time, he befuddled a lot of people in- cluding Indians. In the end he wound up befuddled himself. (This in- formation was gained from the Troy Township trustees book and Delaware County 1880 History.) The town of Kilbourne did well on the state road. It had been named Eden at first and settled first by Presbyterians. In the old cemetery on the banks of Alum Creek are many Jones and their relatives. Their ancestor Rev. Jones, a friend of George Washington, had given his church as a hospital during the terrible winter at Valley Forge. His descendants were given a land grant. (Some of these descendants include McCurdys, Livingstons, Richards, Thurstons, Porters, Hersherys and others. There were also Leonards, one branch of which were direct descendants of the Washington family.) Going north on Alum Creek were Longwells, Scotts, Potter, Riley, Whipple, Fleming, Randolphs, and Thrall. Further north on the state road was the large Quaker settlement from Peru, New York. There were nineteen families, headed by the Benedicts. 15 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 16) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/9a8decfccd74be037b36cd18e56e95f7.jpg e8234e449f56b3993ecdc61217f9929d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 17] [corresponds to page 16 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] North of that was South Woodbury, mainly Methodist. (This town was later very important in the Underground railroad.) West of Woodbury was Westfield, a typical frontier town, also crossed by the Mansfield-Delaware Road. Westfield was wild and wooley! Saloons, stage coaches and maybe horse thieves! It was said there was a hanging tree just south of town. About this time the Methodists moved in above a saloon, and calmed the whole town down! From there on it was respectable! Fort Morrow, Norton and Marlboro were Primitive Baptists (Hard-Shelled) from Virginia. These included the Mains, Dixs, Coles, Wyatts, Coldrens, Brundiges, Martins, Bishops, Currans, Drakes, Kings, Reeds, Worlines, Duncans, Olds, Winsors, and Fousts. These people represent the very early years. There were many additional comings and goings. Many died on the trail. The first buried at Marlboro was a little girl. Her family had stopped in a wagon at the big spring and asked for help. (This story was told by H. Main.) The second burial was a woman that had died west of there. She was buried in a hollowed-out log. The folks scarcely "had a breather" before something else happened. (The following is part of an article that was printed in the Columbus Dispatch Sunday Magazine.) "January and February of 1816 was warm and spring-like. March was cold and stormy. Vegetation had gotten well along in April when real winter set in. Sleet and snow fell seven days in May. In June there was either frost or snow every night but three. The snow was five inches deep in New York and ten inches to three feet in Vermont and Maine. July was cold and frosty. August was still worse, ice formed nearly an inch in thickness, and killed all vegetation in the United States and Europe. In the spring of 1817 - corn from 1815 sold for from five to ten dollars a bushel." This article explains the story told to us by Ralph (Irish) Thomas of Ashley. Irish said that his grandfather Joseph Cole, Jr. told him that his father Joseph Cole, Sr. (from Virginia) had mortgaged his large farm to "grub stake" the people that were coming through Marlboro in covered wagons at this time. The people were eating their precious seed corn! The children were starving and sick! The people in wagon after wagon begging for help! (He and his family had come in 1808 and he was one of the few that knew where to find food to buy.) 16 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 17) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/0d598e84df6eb52130f7fcb63f2499e3.jpg b651cba7c86e2700031685bbf30a410d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 18] [corresponds to page 17 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] Joseph Cole, Sr. mortgaged his large farm and did not get the mortgage paid off in his life time. Joseph Cole, Jr. (the youngest son) had to pay it off - and "griped" about it. But then he, himself, hadn't been hungry, as he was born in 1817. This disagreeable situation he didn't mention in the 1880 History. Joseph, Jr. was, by that time, a wealthy man. Many of the bad things were not put down in the histories - terrible cold winters, hot dry summers (no crops), the panics or epidemics, especially cholera. There were also money panics - there was very little money. Everything was bartered or traded. Many people that had been affluent were desperate and on the townships for help. There were lots of ups and downs. When these earliest families arrived they lived much like the Indians. Some of the people were newly arrived from Europe and towns in the East. Most of them knew very little or nothing about the wilderness. In the first days, there would be a makeshift cabin (or a lean-to) with a mud and stick chimney. There were seldom windows at first. The door was hides stretched across the opening. There were dirt floors with branches to sleep on in a corner. They made slab tables and benches as soon as they could as the men had to get out, and hunt game nearly every day. The fireplace had a crane or hook to hang an iron or copper kettle from. They used animal hides in a number of ways (and of course hides had to be worked on to be cured and pliable.) Deer, bear and turkey meat was "jerked" and hung up to dry. Salt was expensive and important to "cure" the meat. They also boiled hominy (corn that had been soaked in lye water, that had been made from wood ashes.) They also had corn meal mush, wild honey and as soon as they could whittle out some wooden buckets, they had maple syrup. They had no way to can anything as we know it today. They dried most everything or put it down in salt brine in wooden kegs or stonejars from Pennsylvania. The first beds were rope or leather strips to hold hides and later straw ticks, and feather ticks. It was hard to protect domestic animals,-- sheep for wool were important, and they raised flax for linen. "Linsey woolsey" was some of the first cloth woven on hand made looms. It was warm, but "it- chy". They used walnut and poke berries for color later, when "they got fancy". 17 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 18) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/6b6dc5dcd183fa4247afcbcb254d5e28.jpg c0f6b317f19ec1934bca6686a3eb096d Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Inscription: Crown Point July 4, 1765. It was then owned by ancestor Israel Potter. Her- man Potter is also a descendant. They made home made soap with fat and lye. Some had brought along a plant called Bouncing Bet that they used to perfume the soap. When it came to baths the few who took them were "scarce as hen teeth!" Most folks smelled pretty "gamey", but people got used to it - it only seemed natural. They tried to build their cabins near a spring or creek, if not they had to dig a well. They then had to pull the water up in a bucket till someone made a windlass. Of course, in time there was spinning and weaving and candle making. Everything had to be done by hand. First they raised flax, which had to be pounded with a flail. Wheat was cut with a scythe and cradle. (The first years they had to walk or ride a horse as far as Chillicothe or Zanesville for a sack of wheat flour.) They started to build mills as soon as possible. Wheat had to be thrashed by hand, too. A knife was a necessity of life. Indians had flint blades. Right with the knife was the tinder box, a tin box with tinder, flint and steele. (There were no matches or paper to start a fire with in those days.) Just imagine the wolves on a cold winter night! The sound of their howling getting closer and closer! No one, and we mean no one would be foolish enough to let the fire in the fireplace go out. Still, that very thing happened many times in this country in early days. The folks just prayed the mud and stick chimneys wouldn't cave in a heavy snow storm and put the fire out. Many people knew little of the sounds of the woods. Some must have been "scared out of their wits!" For instance, the horrible sounds of an old woods owl could make if you stumbled on one in the dark! You would be apt to think it was the Devil himself! People went to bed early and got up early (they went by sun- time.) 18 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 19) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/ac03d97c5f1ec5028c444ba29753dcc8.jpg 0660add26e2add4f50806ade2dea2879 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 20] [corresponds to page 19 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] If you got up early - you just might hear the sound of little foxes. An eerie sound that hung in the air like smoke. Fascinating! Un- forgettable! There were other things, like the dewy fragrance of a blackberry thicket as the sun came up! In the beautiful autumn the forest was composed of many groves of hickory and walnut trees. The children had a great time racing the squirrels in gathering the nuts. In later, more affluent years, the young people skating on the frozen river in the moonlight, with the hoar frost changing everything to diamonds. The people found the good things as well as the bad. They seldom had time to feel sorry for themselves. At first there were no doctors. People doctored themselves with home remedies. Roots, herbs, barks and berries, skunk grease, goose grease, sheep nanny pills - or just anything - depending on how desperate they were. They were afraid of the damp air of the swamp at night. They considered flies and mosquitoes harmless - just a nuisance. They hadn't the slightest idea of sanitation and contaminated water. There was a high percent of deaths of women in childbirth, and also a very high death rate of babies, especially those in their second summer. Salt and a red hot poker cauterized wounds if you would face it. Whiskey was used as a pain killer, and a remedy for practically everything. If there was a mangled foot, it was either chop it off with an ax or face gangrene. There was not much of survival either way. The epidemics of cholera, small pox, diptheria, grey and bloody flux, typhoid, and malaria fevers were prevalent. A great many died of tuberculosis (consumption), pneumonia, quinsy, rabies, scrofula, and ague. Few lived to a ripe old age.

This was a necessary protection from animals such as rats, etc. When the women had made the "dead presentable" (Which was no small job in many cases), neighbor men made the cof- fin, usually of oak or pine. A horse and wagon was the hearse. The family wore black, even if they had to borrow it. If they were a family that quarreled a lot, they really "took on" at the funeral. They would scream, faint, and sometimes attempt to throw themselves in the grave. This was understood to prove to the neighbors that they loved their kinfolk. This elicited remarks such as "They surely took on a sight", or "a bawling cow soon forgets her calf." There was another burying of a kind - epidemic. This included cholera and small pox.

If still no sign of life, they would burn the cabin. No one spoke of it, then or later. Many children were buried along line fences or small family plots. Many first cemeteries were Indian mounds. (Hundreds of In- dians and whites were buried together unknowingly.) Sometimes there would be a preacher, sometimes not. A neigh- bor might have a Bible and could read. At least they did the best they could. Now things change at a terrific rate - not so in the old days. The first churchces and schools began in someone's cabin home, but not until there were sufficient people in a community. At first the cabins were often miles apart. If you knew how to read, write, and cipher you were a "right smart feller." The roads were mud or corduroy, the last consisting of logs laid side by side. Preachers often performed ceremonies long after the event. A couple decided to get married! A person died! A preacher might not get around for six months in the very early days. Life and death couldn't be postponed! The folks just did the best they could. [image of Cole House] The Cole house that was in the reservoir area. Built around the time of the War of 1812.

As soon as there were any number, the people sang and danced and had a high old time. Barn raisings, corn huskings, spelling, singing, and all sorts of "bees" took place. The preachers were busy - the Hard Shelled Baptists cried, the Methodists shouted, the Quakers and Presbyterians were more dignified. The people really "turned on" for a wedding and a belling. The same with a funeral - everyone went. Skating parties, sled parties, taffy pulls, just anything for a good time. The folks made the most of everything, emotional or material. There were also terriffic knock down, drag out fights at election time, or anywhere there was a gathering of men. Wooden plows were used at first, and other wooden tools. As time passed, the stagecoach and wagons brought in new things from the east, and the pack peddler was a "welcome sight!", especially to the women. They carried pins, needles, thread, thimbles, combs, hooks and eyes, awls, razors, pen knives and pens, buttons, steel rimmed glasses and button hooks for "store bought shoes." (If you should be so lucky!) The peddler had wonderful things in that black box he carried on his back. They had started in with hand made benches.

The swamp was settled last - first here and there on the high ground, as it was so hard to drain. Two schools in the swamp were named "Swamp Angel" and "Mudtown". There was also the "Elm Valley" further south. The swamp people didn't have large farms. The orginal owners were often absentee owners. Many of the people must have been squatters on the small tracts of land. Some of the names were Smith, Gale, Starisbury, Legg, Calkins, Glenn, Thomas, Thornman, Wells, Sherman, Brown, Wheeler, Williams, Biggs, Cackler, Slawson, Whipple, McClish, and Kyrk. The small farmers were usually poor, but they had good times. They were the best fisherman, hunters, and trappers. Last, but not least - they were the best fiddlers for the "hoe downs", but evidently not affluent enough to be written up in the County Histories. Preacher Gavitt (in the to be Ashley vicinity) was busy saving souls, but the "pesky corn squeezers" (lots of folks had stills) often put the "converts on the skids". Then they had to be saved all over again at the next camp meeting. Preacher Gavitt had his trials. One hot Sunday, during an exor- tation, he reached in his back pocket beneath his long coat tails and whipped out his bandana handkerchief. A deck of cards sailed out over the congregation. Methodists of that time considered cards, whiskey, and dancing to be the inventions of the Devil. The Devil in this case was the preachers son Cobb. 23 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 24) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/76714694fa90427a9ed7db3b35ff4847.jpg 94ab6666988b5681f15bd9a9775aa4b5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

There was enough demand that the County Commissioners built an infirmary in 1851. (This was to be the only hospital or social agency in Delaware County for the next fifty years.) These first fifty years there had been many changes - not swiftly, but the frontier was nearly gone. News of the nation filtered in gradually, by "stage" and "mail", and the people coming and going brought news.

Description An account of the resource [page 27] [corresponds to page 26 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] It was a difficult job to lay a railroad bed through the swamp. The ties were cut right out of the woods. Cabins were built along the right of way for the workers. The engines were wood burning and had to stop frequently and take on wood and water. North of Ashley the engines sank in the swamp five times. Finally they got on the road bed to hold. It had delayed the "Great Day". The Great Day finally arrived. The finished road from Cleveland was all but joined to the finished road from Columbus and Cin- cinnati. This joining was two miles south of Ashley on what was the Barton or Shults farm. Very important officials came from both directions. Two big engines the folks hadn't seen before! Folks came out of the woods for miles to "see the sight!" The finish of the ceremony after a lot of fancy talking was the beautiful gold spike driven in the all important last tie. (This gold spike was discreetly removed before sundown and went back with the important officials. Many eyes observed it!) Life was never the same in this neck of the woods after that won- derful day. Folks just told each other about it over and over again. As previously stated lots had been laid out in the new town. Houses and streets were going up fast. The sidewalks were plank. The streets were mud or dust, depending on the weather. Some of the first lots in Ashley were laid out in June 1849. Lewis Purmont started the first store in 1850 on a Shoemaker farm. In the same year Aloy Patee built the Ashley Hotel. He and Milton Smith built the first saw mill on the railroad grounds in 1850. McMaster, Riley and Potter erected a grain warehouse before 1853. A petition to incorporate was signed by fifty residents and ap- proved in June 1855. James Culbertson was first mayor in August of 1855 when first election was held. Ashley was well on its way to becoming an im- portant, busy city. Culture, too, was arriving fast with the first locomotives and the telegraph. "Ashley was now in touch with the world!" Ladies daintily walked the plank sidewalks, carefully holding their swaying hoop skirts. Gentlemen gallantly stepped off in the mud to let the ladies pass. In doing so, they invariably tipped their plug hats. Now, knowing exactly how to tip your hat was a work of art. First a gentleman put his heels together and slowly bowed from the waist, holding his left hand slightly behind him, and with his right hand, he then with a graceful flourish removed his hat, letting it rest momentarily on his 26 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 27) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/6d8ae8e49f20136a803063b43b8d8363.jpg 1d79bc42145be92f4c3e07ddf4ec0e1e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

He then stood erect, and placed his hat back on his head slowly. A most engaging smile accompanied the performance. It was irresistible! No woman could encounter this situation without palpitations of the heart! (One old boy over in Kingston Township is still adept at this elegant gesture, though he has remained free from entanglements.) The story of railroad was told to us by Dr. Dennis Welsh. For other information on the railroad see the Delaware County 1880 History. Well, Ashley was now established as an "up and coming" town, no doubt of it! Some folks were already "putting on airs!" The young people were happy with dances and parties and all the new things! But some of the older folks were horrified by the black cloud on the horizon. It could only mean one thing - "War!" The Civil War was approaching fast. The ones that were grieved the most were the folks from Virginia. Most of the older ones never lived to see it through. It broke their hearts. They simply died with the pain of it. 27 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 28) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/83895159d010b37d744718040a8b2e7c.jpg c7abf53debf633cd766b9f9d169e8ffc Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

She lived to a ripe old age and didn't suffer too much discomfort, except when the weather changed. (Having been peeled like that, so to speak, you might say it was no wonder.) Over a long period of time, Adeline and her daughter Charlotte, and Ann Amith lived in a very small house on the edge of the swamp. There once had been a family bible with all the family names in it. There were two lusterware pitchers, one quite large, and the other small, and a folding spoon-folk combination carried in the French and Indian Wars by some of the men in the family long ago.

This story is of a man that had hunted all day for game. He had shot at some from a distance, and missed. It was nearly dark and he was just cleaning his muzzle-loader with the ramrod. Suddenly, he saw a wild turkey on a limb protruding straight out from a tree toward him. He pulled up his gun and shot, forgetting the ramrod. He went over to pick up the turkey, and found eleven turkeys strung on the ramrod, every last one of them shot through the throat! (They had been sitting in a row on the limb.) That's just a sample of what great hunters the old timers were (or you might say something else.) It was something to hear the stories told in the old country stores. The Marion County 1885 History has some of the best. The Morrow County 1880 History is also very good. A person can nearly smell the jerked turkey and jerked venison along with the wood smoke from the fireplaces. The Delaware County 1880 History has some good stories about your kin folks if they have been around here that long. (But we have had a lot of good people coming in all through the years. "That's what keeps a good backbone in the community!") [image of quilt] Polly C. from Virginia made quilts for her grand-daughters before the Civil War as something to keep her busy, so she wouldn't worry so much. 29 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 30) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/52ed58ba09d63c6ecd41a1ba4effd0e4.jpg e06707ee87b8b08a40365ac96559ddd0 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

(Something that was better than themselves.) It was something to "look up to." The poorest people were proud, and grateful - they wouldn't ac- cept something for nothing. There were few men that didn't aim to keep their "word good." That way you could look your neighbors in the eye. The early settlers were exceptionally strong minded human beings as a whole, or they wouldn't have had the intestinal fortitude (guts, in other words) to have faced the wilderness. But, they were human and as soon as they had time from their work to speculate they immediately got into various illicit oc- cupations. Also what one person did, or did not do, was greatly enlarged upon by his neighbor's ingenious imaginations. I'll offer this one undercover story as an illustration. This very respectable man, having been duly married by preacher Gavitt, became apparently obsessed by the Biblical story of Abraham. He waited patiently - for awile, but his wife produced no son. "A man had to have a son to carry on for the future!" This man had an indomitable will, by his own admission. Result: the hired girl had a son at the Infirmary, which was duly adopted by he and his wife. It has gone down in The Delaware County History's Archives: "One son to hand the family name on to futurity." (We saw him years ago.) A veritable patriarch, he had a long snow-white beard, sitting in his phaeton with his horse plodding straight ahead. Today, one great-great-granddaughter has attained the highest position in her profession. This was due, no doubt, to her inherited "indomitable will." Preacher Gavitt married and buried a lot of people. One couple he married paid for the ceremony with a live goose. This is about another couple he married. After the ceremony the new husband stated that he had doubts if it was going to be worth anything and that he wasn't going to pay until he found out. The preacher received no pay. The first ordinance passed by the new town of Ashley was for the suppression of intemperance. 30 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 31) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/18df9d7c59dda712818b52178a0d9f3e.jpg 9ff60dd41ca4ead40dbdd2d447089c00 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 32] [corresponds to page 31 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] The unknown soldiers buried in a row at Fort Morrow were not unknown. It has been remembered down through the years that they were advance scounts in the War of 1812. They had been sent ahead of the men that had camped at Battle Run. The unknown men had been captured by renegades. They had been mutilated, their hands cut off, and turned out in the wilderness to die. The ones that brought them to Fort Morrow knew who they were. The men that buried them promised each other never to tell. They kept that promise. (This story was told to me by J. Brundige.) John Grady, father of (Mamie) Mary Grady (Hospital) as a very old man, told how he remembered his father as one of the bosses when the Railroad was being built. He also said he had enjoyed "barn raisings". "This people had so much fun." Everyone was happy. When the men stopped to rest, they passed around the whiskey. Everyone drank, but no one was drunk, possibly because everyone was working so hard. The women got the meals. Isaac Hickson was fifteen years old at the time of the Civil War. He had just arrived from England. He remembered that he had been hired to take a wagon load of flax from Westfield to Delaware. He had to pass through Marlboro and had been surprised at the first brick house (Coles) that he had seen in this part of the country. "It wasn't a new house," he said. (It had been finished shortly after the War of 1812.) Later Isaac married a Commer girl from the Ashley vicinity. Kenneth Lea tells us that his grandfather Tommie Lea had lived just south of Ashley on the east side of the railroad track, and remembered the building of the railroad. He had the important job of cutting wood for the first wood- burning engines. (He later served in the Civil War.) Two Historical Facts no recorded elsewhere (Out of context. Inserted here, because there is no other record.) When Horseshoe Road was paved with gravel several years after the Civil War, the upper part came from at least ten large gravel mounds; Jacoby, Stratton, Wallace, Cole and Mains. Three men told me in their old age that as small boys that they were there. "Lots and lots of bones and beautiful arrowheads." The boys were Frank Stratton, Ben Wallace, and Jonas Main. 31 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 32) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/94eea6a3e15e5cdf15ddf1edd7f527d2.jpg c00288fbd6a6f02943f1139209c907df Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 33] [corresponds to page 33 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] AUTHOR'S COMMENT When Ashley and Leonardsburg were born approximately around 1850, the need was for expanding transportation. Ashley, which was on the railroad, took the place of Westfield on the stagecoach and wagon road, of the Mansfield-Delaware road. Leonardsburg or Eden Station took the place of Kilbourne or Old Eden on the stagecoach and wagon road - Worthington - Newhaven. This was a transition period desperately needed to get the farm products to the markets. There was little competition between the two railroad stations (only four miles apart). Both Ashley and Leonardsburg were swam- ped with business. On week days there was a constant stream of livestock, poultry, wagons of grain, foodstuffs such as butter, eggs, nuts, berries, fruit - both stations had all they could handle. This continued to, and included the First World War around 1920, or approximately seventy years. At this time there was another burst of expansion. The automobile had arrived, and roads had improved beyond the wildest dreams of any frontiersman. At this time schools were consolidated, and education was no doubt improved. The social life of the communities, though, was very nearly destroyed, and has not been replaced. Before this everyone in a community was acquainted with one another. Most everyone was like a relative. Now in spite of super communication, talking machines, radio, television and millions of analytical books, we don't seem to know anyone. Look at the super educated lsot people trying to find themselves, or a friend. Looks like it's about time for another explosion, this time in human understanding. We hope so. 32 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 33) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/deb2e98a99347486746fe5644776a851.jpg ab352e48e7f5cf4d8a29edf4df4a933b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS When you had to arise on a cold morning --build a fire and empty the ashes When you had to draw water from the well-- with a rope and a pail When you had to stop and put on the side-curtains-- if it rained When you had to sleep in an unheated room-- even in zero weather When, once in a while, you took a bath-- in the old galvanized tub When you used to read the Sears catalog-- in the outside privy When, at milking time, the old cow got her foot in the milk bucket When, on wash day, you hung clothes out to dry-- and had them freeze The End. 34 Title A name given to the resource Our Frontier 1800-1860 and the Birth of Our Town of Ashley 1849 (p. 35) http://www.delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/fbeb69acb28400302d08bb0975232933.jpg 4edadfdcc6571308354104811d4496c8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 38] [corresponds to page 37 of Our Frontier 1800-1860] ASHLEY BICENTENNIAL GROUP A group of concerned citizens first met at the Wornstaff Memorial Library in August, 1974. But, for lack of space, the next three monthly meetings were held at the Wesleyan Methodist Church and then moved to private homes of the members for a more informal atmosphere. Such meetings will continue throughout the Bicentennial Year of 1976. In November, 1974, the title "Ashley Bicentennial Group" was adopted, its purpose being to locally and appropriately observe our nation's Bicentennial, July 4, 1976. Dick Newman, of the Legion, was elected Chairman and Mar- jorie Lea, Progressive Mothers Club, elected Secretary-Treasurer. "Festival U.S.A." Chairman became Carl McCurdy, Farm Bureau, assisted by Dick Wilde, of the Legion. "Heritage '76" Chairman fell to Louise Zeigler, Fidelis Mothers Club, assisted by Juanita Newman, Ashley Book Club. "Horizons '76" Chairman became Dean Eckler, Masons, assisted by Bill Frey, of the Legion. At this time the undeclared motto of the group became, "to judge the success of Ashley's Bicentennial, NOT by the number of spectators, but rather by the number of par- ticipants." In February, 1975, the Group submitted to the American Revolutionary Bicentennial Administration (A.R.B.A.) Washington, D.C., an application for recognition as a "Bicentennial Community" and was so appointed in March '75 and also incorporated as a Non- Profit Organization by the Secretary of the State of Ohio the same month.

Description An account of the resource [page 17] [corresponds to page 15 of Buckeye Hat Story] BUCKEYE HATS When the nights are long and chilly And there's time for neighborly chats, Then it's time to be a thinkin' Of next summer's Buckeye hats. To the woods with axe and saw There to limber up their backs, For this is the beginnin' Of next summer's Buckeye hats. Cut the logs the proper length And split them into slats, And we soon will be a makin' On next summer's Buckeye hats. Uncle Joe will get the plane And make splits in nothin' flat, Soon all will be a workin' On next summer's Buckeye hats. After many months of braidin' Sewin', pressin', this shape and that, At last, we all have finished With next summer's Buckeye hats. K. I.
