PREFACE.
TO 10 rescue from a fast engulfing oblivion the authentic events which bave transpired in this region during a period of more than one hundred years, to preserve and to do honor to the memory of those who first dwelt within its boundaries, and to present an historical view of the institutions and industries of town and hamlet and township, is the object we have had in purpose in the preparation of this work. It has been our endeavor to glean the facts thoroughly, to present them simply and plainly.
'As the table of contents indicates, the work is divided into four parts. Parts First and Second treat briefly the history of the Northwest Territory and the State of Ohio. Parts Third and Fourth are chiefly devoted to Wyandot County. The twelve chapters embraced by Part Third, as well as the history of the town of Upper Sandusky found in Part Fourth, have beeu prepared by Capt. John S. Schenck, a gentleman of wide experience in the compilation of local annals. The remainder of Part Fourth, mainly bio- graphical in its contents, has been arranged by a staff of competent, pains- taking writers, and possesses additional value from the fact that each bio- graphical sketch has been submitted for correction and approval before going to press. This department of the work was largely prepared by C. G. Har- raman. Part Third contains the general history of the county, and inci- dentally some fragments of the history of Northwestern Ohio. In Part Fourth, which is supplementary to Part Third, those minor details are pre- served in connection with the township histories, which could not well be given plac in the chapters upon a broader class of subjects. In these will be found carefully made records of the, early settlements, accounts of churches, schools, etc., and much of incident illustrative of the men and manners of early days.
Returning to the general history, or Part Third, we will remark that within the first pages the effort is frequently made, not only to chronicle facts, but to show their relation as causes and effects in the great chain of events by which a portion of the American wilderness was reclaimed and added to the mighty realm of civilization. In the first few chapters of this part, succeeding Chapter I, a chronological order of arrangement is main- tained, as nearly as may be, while in the later ones the topical form is re- sorted to as more practical and appropriate, and for other reasons which should be obvious to the reader.
Chapter I describes the location, extent, and natural features of the county. Then follows three large chapters which tell the story of the Wyan- dot Indians, and of other Ohio tribes, from time immemorial to 1843. Under the title "Early Settlements," etc., is given a brief history of the settlement of the county, with a few remarks showing the retarding effects caused by the Wyandot Reserve being located within its borders. Many of the trials of pio- neer life are also dwelt upon in the same chapter, and the building of the
iv
PREFACE.
log cabin, the dress, customs, and occupations of the first settlers are minutely described. A separate chapter is devoted to the civil history of the county, and outlines its formation and organization, the establishment of its courts, refers to notable public transactions, the erection of the county buildings, township divisions, and the results of electiors, including also a valuable reference list of county officials, and the representatives of the county in the State and Federal Government. The Bench and Bar, the Medical Profession, the Newspaper Press and Educational Interests like- wise have each separate places in the volume. The chapter styled " Mate- rial Progress " embraces a variety of topics, articles upon population, the more important county societies, post offices, productions, etc., and the pub- lic improvements in the county, from the days when the "mud road" was the only means of communication and travel down to and including the era of railroad development. The county in the dark days of the rebellion re- sponded to the call for troops in a manner of which her people may ever be proud. For that reason the soldiers' record is given the large space which its importance demands and thus occupies a large chapter.
In conclusion, we add that this work contains the essence of many vol- umes of pertinent Federal, State, County and Township Archives, of al- most complete newspaper files, and the invaluable recollections of the best- informed people of the county. Especial acknowledgments are also due to the editors and publishers of newspapers, to the pastors of churches, to county, village and township officials, the members of the bar and medical profession, the officers of public institutions, and the members of various secret orders, all of whom, without a single exception, have responded prompt- ly and most courteously to requests for data. We are especially indebted to Hon. John D. Sears, for his able articles on the Newspapers of Upper Sandusky to 1871, and on the "Early Poets and Poetry " of the county, as well as for valuable assistance in other departments of the work. To R. D. Dumm, Esq., we are under many obligations for his well-written Rem- iniscences, and for his able and earnest co-operation in each and every de- partment of the history; and lastly we acknowledge in a general manner, for their generous assistance, our obligations to Hon. L. A. Brunner, Pietro Cuneo, Hon. Robert McKelly, Hon. Chester R. Mott, Col. Moses H. Kirby, Hon. D. D. Hare, Hon. George W. Beery, J. G. Roberts, Thomas E. Beery, George Harper, and many others who aided materially in the preparation of the History.
As completed, the work is now presented to its patrons. That some errors will be found in the spelling of proper names, and in an occasional date furnished from memory, is not improbable. That such can be avoided, how- ever, is equally as impossible, from the fact that the persons mentioned aggregate many thousands, traces of whom have been obtained, largely, from written records, prepared very frequently by those who were, seem- ingly, not particular whether they wrote legibly or spelled the proper names correctly or not. Yet, firmly believing that the History of Wyandot County will prove eminently satisfactory after a careful perusal and investigation, it is without further remark or explanation respectfully submitted.
