PREFACE.
The author presents to the public two volumes, each containing more than 600 pages, which exhaustively set forth the military and political history of Henry County. The first volume, with the exception of Chapter I, relates exclusively to the military history of the county, and Volume II, in addition to military and political information, contains a carefully prepared account of the early civil history of the county, its townships, towns, villages, banks, newspapers and much valuable statistical information relating to the growth and development of the community, all of which is accompanied by biographical mention of early settlers, leading families and prominent actors in the county, past and present.
The author has, in the course of his investigations, at great pains and large expense, collected sufficient valuable material relating to the industrial, educational. religious, literary, benevolent and social life of the county, also biographical, neigh- borhood, village and family history, together with other matter relating to the county's natural and physical history, to fill two additional volumes of equal size with these now published. Some of the most interesting data collected relates to the movement westward from Henry County during the excitement following the discovery of gold in California and Pike's Peak, Colorado, reference to which is made on pages 163 and 529 and possibly elsewhere in this History. The author regrets that he has been compelled to drop this feature of the work, but all of the matters above referred to will be preserved for future publication by the author or some one to come after him.
It has been the steadfast purpose of the author and his associates in the work to provide an accurate, impartial and comprehensive account of the part taken by the county in military affairs from the days of the Mexican War through the Spanish-American War and the Philippine Insurrection, together with such infor- mation as is obtainable about the soldiers of the Revolution and the War of 1812-15, who became early settlers in the county, all of whom have long since passed away. This matter precedes the political and civil history of the county and is the distinc- tive feature of the work which causes these volumes to be appropriately designated "Military Edition."
It should be borne in mind that the time which the author has personally devoted to this work, together with that of those associated with him, would repre- sent the continuous labor of a single person for ten years and that many thousands of dollars have been spent in the preparation and publication of the volumes. No doubt some errors have crept into the work, notwithstanding the care that has been exercised in its preparation, but the author is induced to state that such errors as may exist are either unimportant or relate to matters not now the subject of exact statement.
The author believes that the public will conclude that Hazzard's History of Henry County is not a book to be read and laid aside but is one that will grow
2
PREFACE.
in interest and importance as the years go by, each succeeding year making it more valuable. As sources of historical information diminish, it will stand as a monu- ment to coming generations, pointing to the part their forefathers took in the military, political and civil history of their times.
It has long been the cherished desire of the author to render the service which he feels that he has now accomplished in writing this history of his native county in the soil of which repose the remains of his grandparents, parents, many mem- bers of their respective families and so many of the friends of his youth. More than this, he feels that nothing he might have done in other fields could be as enduring a monument to his deceased daughter and to the wife of his youth who yet abides with him, to whom the first and second volumes are respectively ·dedicated.
Respectfully,
New Castle, Indiana, January 1, 1906.
GEO. HAZZARD.
SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
Judge Daniel Wait Howe, of Indianapolis, is a lawyer who has adorned his profession and as a judge of the Superior Court of Marion County has enrolled his name among the jurists of the State, administering the law impartially. He is the author of several works of great merit, in the preparation of which he has displayed literary ability of a high order.
In the Civil War he was a gallant Union soldier, serving first in Company H, 7th Indiana Infantry, three months' service, being mustered into the service, April 22, 1861, and mustered out August 2, 1861. In 1862 he assisted in recruiting what became Company I, 79th Indiana Infantry, of which company he became First Lieutenant, being commissioned as such August 2, 1862, and mustered in August 22, 1862. He was promoted Captain, July 17, 1863, and mustered in as such August 1, 1863. He was honorably discharged November 10, 1864, on account of disability arising from wounds received in battle.
He was born in Patriot, Switzerland County, Indiana, October 24, 1839, but when he was ten years old went with his parents to Franklin, Johnson County, which was his home when he entered the army and where he continued to reside on his return until 1873, when he moved to Indianapolis and has resided there ever since. He is the president of the Indiana Historical Society, a position that he has held for nearly ten years, and it has been through his efforts principally that many facts of great historical interest have been gathered and lodged in the archives of the society.
In 1902 he placed before the public a work entitled "Civil War Times- 1861-5," a book of four hundred pages, published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company, of Indianapolis. This book is replete with general information concerning the Civil War and Indiana's part in that great conflict, and the author of this History recommends its purchase by all persons who desire to be informed relative to Indiana in the Civil War. The author of this History has drawn much inspiration from Judge Howe's book and the facts as set out in Chapters III to VI, both in- clusive, are mainly taken from his "Civil War Times-1861-5."
GENERAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
Space will not permit the author to acknowledge by name all the persons in Henry County and elsewhere to whom he is under obligations for assistance ren- dered in gathering information for use in this History. The author takes great pleas- ure in stating that he has never made a request of any person in Henry County for assistance in getting together matter for this History that the same has not been cheerfully complied with. The persons who have thus assisted are very numerous. However, the author must make acknowledgment to those who have been more closely identified with him in the preparation and compiling of the History. Those who have been most closely associated with the author are David S. Yount, John Thornburgh, Julian Olds, Benjamin S. Parker and Loring Bundy. Without the intelligent and methodical assistance rendered by these gentlemen, the author would have failed in his undertaking. Captain Yount was associated with the author from the very beginning but near the end of the first year's labor he suddenly died Sep- tember 14, 1903. A full biographical sketch of Captain Yount will be found in Chapter XIX.
ANNOUNCEMENT.
The table of contents and the indices of biography and illustration for both volumes of this History precede the text of Volume I; the index of military history, including artillery, cavalry and infantry, also precede the text of Volume I; the general index for both volumes follows the text of Volume II.
NATHAN HUNT BALLENGER.
Since the writing and printing of the biographical sketch of Nathan Hunt Bal- lenger, which appears on page 1107 of this History, that well-known pioneer citizen has departed this life. He died November 12, 1905, and is buried in Spiceland Cemetery.
THOMAS LEONARD HARTLEY.
In the biography of Thomas Leonard Hartley, Volume I, page 190, in the last line of the first paragraph, the name of "Joseph O." should be omitted, as he is deceased, and the name of "James" should read "James L." In the fifth line of the second paragraph on page 190 after the word "courageously" there should be inserted "and was frequently sent on scouting duty and on missions carrying im- portant messages." Since the article was written, Edmund C., son of Thomas L. Hartley, has moved from Delaware County to the old home farm near Luray, where he now lives, and the second line on page 191 should for that reason read "Henry" instead of "Delaware."
SAMUEL ALEXANDER MITCHELL.
In the biography of Samuel Alexander Mitchell, the last paragraph relating to the ancestry of Mrs. Samuel A. Mitchell, page 280, should read as follows : "Mr. and Mrs. Swope were the parents of eleven children, namely: Elenor (Eleanor), now Mrs. George W. Shane ; Margaret, now Mrs. Samuel A. Mitchell ; Joseph A .; Louisa, afterwards Mrs. Calvin L. Swain, now deceased ; Delila, after- wards Mrs. Francis M. Sanders, now deceased : Jonas B .; Perthena, now Mrs. John Weesner, of New Castle ; George W .; Charles ; Sarah Jane and Sophia, both of whom died in infancy."
AUSTIN MORRIS WOODWARD.
In the biography of Pyrrhus Woodward in Chapter XVII of this History, which treats of Asahel Woodward and his descendants, on account of an error of omission by the printer, the name of Austin Morris Woodward does not appear. He is the only son and the sole surviving child of Franklin and Maria (Burt) Woodward. He is a native of New Castle, Indiana. Soon after the Civil War, he went with his parents to near Minneapolis, Minnesota, and in later life moved to

the city itself, where he has ever since continued to reside. Since about the year 1879, he has been engaged in the grain commission business in that city where he has established a reputation second to none. He is a member of the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce and is also a large stockholder and a director in the First National Bank of Minneapolis. He has a large and interesting family to which he is very greatly devoted. Both of his parents are deceased and their remains are interred in South Mound Cemetery, New Castle, Indiana.
CITIZENS' STATE BANK, NEW CASTLE.
At the bottom of page 1078 of this History, the date of the appointment as Cashier of David W. Kinsey should read "since July 14. 1874." and that of the appointment of Thomas B. Millikan as assistant cashier should read "since Sep- tember 9, 1874."
