Rev. J. B. Finley formed a class in Smithfield village in 1814, that being then a part of Cross Creek circuit. Included in the class were Benjamin Roberts, Jolm Stout, James Coleman, Pollard Hartgrove, David Long, Thomas Mansfield and John Dongherty. Meetings were held in private houses, with Joseph Powell as Mr. Finley's colleague, and soon after a lot was pur- chased on the west side of the village at the end of Green Street, of James Carr, for $40, on which a frame building was erected in 1816. It was 36x27 and was used until 1862, when it was sold to the A. M. E. con- gregation, and a new site purchased on the east side, near the end of High Street. on which was erected a frame house 38x48 feet, costing $1,800. It was dedicated on March 9, 1863, by Bishop James and Dr. S. B. Nesbitt. A Sunday school was or-

ganized in 1836 and was carried on as a union school until 1853, when it was reor- ganized April 13 on an M. F. basis, with George Lee as superintendent and W. A. Judkins secretary. The later ministers since the organization of Smithfield circuit have been the following : I. K. Rader. 1886 1889; J. A. Wright, 1890-91; J. D. Kaho, 1892; T. W. Anderson, 1893-94; S. A. Pere- goy, 1895-97; S. B. Salmon, 1898-1900; J. V. Orin, 1901-2; M. F. Rainsberger, 1903; B. C. Peck, 1904; M. C. Grimes, 1905-7; J. F. Hoffman, 1908-9. The church was re- built a few years ago.
In 1815 James Wheeler deeded a tract about three miles south of Smithfield vil- lage to himself, William Whitten, Jacob Cramblet, Thomas Kems and Dennis Low- ry, trustees, for an M. E. Church and ceme- tery. A log house was built, known as Wheeler's Church, which was used until about 1849, when it was abandoned as a preaching place and afterwards removed, although the burying ground was retained. Mr. Wheeler came from Maryland about 1804 and was proverbial for his honesty. If he sold his produce for what he thought afterwards was too high a price, he would hunt up the purchaser and refund the ex- cess, and if he thought he had bought any- thing too cheaply he would insist on mak- ing good the deficit.
The first preaching at Piney Fork, re- sulting in what is now the United Presbyte- rian Church of that place, was by Rev. Alexander Calderhead, a Scotch minister of the Associate Reform Church, in 1800. It may be remarked here that at this period there were in existence two offshoots from the original Presbyterian body. the Associ- ate Reform and Associate Presbyterian, the former being sometimes known under the title of Seceders. In 1858 these two bodies were reunited, under the name of the United Presbyterian Church, by which the body has since been known. This, of course, explains why the name United Presbyterian does not appear at an early date in local history. Mr. Calderhead preached here until his death in 1812, when
he was succeeded by Rev. John Walker. In December, 1821, Rev. Thomas Hanna took charge in connection with Cadiz. He was succeeded by Rev. Joseph Cloky in 1835, and in 1840 the charge was trans- ferred to Steubenville Presbytery. Mr. Cloky resigning in 1842, there was no pas- tor until 1856, when Rev. William Lorimer took charge and remained until the spring of 1859. Rev. J. M. Jamison became pastor in 1860, May 20, and remained until Sep- tember 11, 1888. Rev. K. McFarland served from Bloomfield in 1891-92; J. D. Oldham, 1894-96; D. J. White, 1899-1902, and G. E. Henderson, 1906-8, the charge at present being vacant. The first preaching was in the woods, and then they made a tent between two trees and covered it with clapboards, while the congregation sat on logs and poles arranged for seats. They afterwards built a cabin for winter use, and on October 29, 1819, the society was incorporated, the meeting being attended by William Hervey, Robert Milligan, James Carson, William Crawford, David Lindsey, Charles A. Lindsey, William Kyle, James Moore, James Leech, Joseph Boles, Robert Reed, David Hervey, James Hutcheson, Malcolm McNary, Robert McGaw, Charles Herrin, Samuel McNary, John Walker, Walter and George Crawford. Messrs. Kyle, Hutcheson and Malcolm McNary were elected trustees and Samuel Mc- Nary clerk. A hewn log house was built in 1824, 60x30, Thomas Hamilton being the contractor. It was replaced by a brick building the same size in 1838, erected by John Lacy.
In 1889 it was decided to abandon the old church, and the following spring a neat frame structure was built on the Hender- son, now Dorrance, farm, a mile and a half from the old church, which was torn down, but the graveyard retained. The charge is now separate from Bloomfield.
A Disciple Church was started by Thomas Campbell in 1831, and in 1836 was removed to Smithfield village. William Scott. John Cramlet and Joshua Carle, David Carson being the first deacons. Alex-

ander Campbell. Elder Young of Wills- MeGhill, Elizabeth J. Newlin, Mary Mat- burg, Jonas Hartzell, Dr. George Lney and thews, Abigail J. Scott and Eliza O'Don- nell. W. R. Kirkwood was pastor until December, 1871, Rev. T. A. Grove from 1872 to 1875, A. A. Hough from 1875; A. A. Giffin, 1897, and supplies since. The church was rebuilt about five years ago. A Sab- bath school was started in 1870. Harrison Jones were among the first preachers, and meetings were held in the schoolhouse, but in 1838 a brick building costing something over a thousand dollars was erected. Melntyre Creek, two miles distant, is used for immersions. A Sunday school was organized in 1867, with James P. Hopkins as superintendent.
The first Presbyterian Church in the township was organized at Adena on June 1, 1848, and a house was built the same year at a cost of $825. Samuel Kerr, Sr .. was the founder and he, Robert Brown and William Stringer were the original elders. The other charter members were Agnes, James, Julia and Joseph Kerr, Isabel Stringer, James W., Sarah and Eleanor Carrick, Isabel Brown, James and Sarah Hamilton, Sarah Stringer, John and Jane Hagan, Elizabeth Hope, Mothers Stringer and Hamilton, William Hamilton, twenty- two in all. Rev. Samnel Boyd preached about three years aud in 1856 Rev. Robert Armstrong was installed and served until the fall of 1870, and was succeeded by Rev. IT. W. Parks. His successors were Rev. Mr. Gibson, L. Trinem and Mr. Rummage. The old church was torn down in 1878 and replaced by a neat frame building 50x36 feet, costing $2.400. Rev. Robert Alex- ander preached the dedication sermon on Thursday, October 31, 1878.
The project of a Presbyterian organiza- tion in the village of Smithfield was agi- tated in the summer of 1866, and that fall Steubenville Presbytery appointed Rev. W. R. Kirkwood to preach there and discuss the matter with the people. A committee was appointed the following spring, con- sisting of Rev. A. Swaney, M. A. Parkin- son and W. R. Kirkwood, which made a favorable report to the June meeting held at Beech Springs Church. After going through the usnal routine an organization was effected at Smithfield on September 21, 1867, by the following : John Medill, eller; William Vermillion, deacon: William Ekey, Margaret Ekey, Eleanor Peters, Mary E.
Soon after the organization of the Meth- odist Protestant Church in 1829 a congre- gation was formed and house of worship built in Section 33, which took the name of Rehoboth Church. It was used until about 1880, when it was abandoned, the congre- gation uniting with the Presbyterians at York in the building of a union chapel. This was destroyed by fire a few years later, and the Presbyterians declining to enter into an arrangement for rebuilding the M. P. people built a small honse of their own, which is still used. The Presbyterians joined the Beech Spring congregation, in Harrison County. The church was lately remodeled.
A union Sunday school was organized in Smithfield village in 1853, which had a flourishing existence for about thirty years. Joel H .Carr was the first superintendent.
On JJaimary 28, 1863, the African M. E. Church, of Smithfield, which had been in existence for some time, purchased from the M. E. Church the latter's lot, with the building thereon, for $150. This building was replaced by a new frame building 36x26, at a cost of $1,500. It was dedi- rated November 10. 1878, Rev. Johnson Underwood preaching the sermon, and Rev. D. N. Mason assisting in the exercises. There were ten members in the original organization. A Sunday school was started in 1864.
Samuel Conoway and Ezekiel Palmer kept up an organization of Bible Chris- tians, or "New Lights," for about ten years, beginning with 1821. They were an offshoot from the M. E. Church, but op- posed to bishops, and the remnant found a home, probably in the M. P. organization. Howells gives an account of their doings in Steubenville.

WAYNE TOWNSHIP.
Wayne Township. lying to the north of Smithfield, partakes of the same general character, both as to surface and minerals, leading in grain and sheep in former days, and later a field for coal mining develop- ment. It contains thirty-six full sections and was first set apart from Archer on June 12, 1805, it then including part of what are now Green and German Town- ships, in Harrison County, and Salem in this county. The first election was held at the house of Joseph Day. Settlers appear to have come here as early as 1796, and the first birth was that of John Mansfield, grandfather of Hon. John A. Mansfield, of Steubenville, on Section 10, in Decem- ber, 1797. Joseph Copeland, the second white child, was born in 1800. The Mans- field family first settled on Section 4 on what has since been known as Dorsey Flats, but failing to obtain a title from Jo- seph Dorsey, who was a land speculator, they vacated and settled in Section 3. James Blackburn came from Westmore- land County, Pennsylvania, in 1798, and settled two and one-half miles southeast of the present Bloomfield village, on what was afterward the Washington Stringer property. His brother Anthony came at the same time and settled near him. John Maxwell also settled near the Blackburns at that time, and Jacob Ong on Short Creek. Others down to 1814 included Michael Slonecker, William Wright, John Lyon, Lewis Throckmorton, John Dickey, Richard Coleman, John Barrett, Jacob Shaw, James Tipton, John Tipton, Robert Christy, William Sprague, Hugh Trimble, Joseph MeGrail, Thomas Carr, John Thorn, William Elliott, Samuel MeNary, Jacob William, Zebedee and Christopher Cox, Thomas Bell, John Edgington, John Mc- Clay, Sylvester Tipton, Henry Ferguson.

BLOOM FIELD AND UNIONPORT.
Bloomfield village was laid out by David Craig on March 20, 1816. It was made up of sixty-nine lots 60x80 feet each, to which there have been no additions. John Mor- rison was the first blacksmith in 1823, John Crow the first wagonmaker, about the same time, Thomas Latta, the first tanner in 1826, and Henry Beckett the second in 1827. The town being about midway between Steubenville and Cadiz furnished a good business for taverns. Richard Price had the first in 1822 and Marion Duvall the second. The first doctors were Harrison, Riddle, Vorhes and Johnson. The town- ship hall, a substantial frame structure, built abont 1900, is located here, and there are good church and school buildings. At one time in 1897 it had a iodge of American Mechanics. The town was incorporated in 1848, but its growth has not been marked. It had 184 inhabitants in 1850, 146 in 1870, and 175 in 1880, since which time it does not appear in the census re- ports. The postoffice has been named Bloomingdale and was established in 1823, with postmasters as follows: Henry Rickey, 1823; Edward Hand, 1825; Washington Murray, 1827; Marion Duvall, 1828; Sam- uel MeGrew, 1829; Basil Carter, 1836; John W. Carter, 1846; J. B. Simeral, 1849; Haran Maxwell, 1857; M. L. Blackburn, 1869; John B. Simeral until his death, suc-

part of the railroad authorities against the township because it had refused to follow the example of Steubenville and Cross Creek and vote $30,000 towards the build- ing of the road which was to intersect it, and William Blackburn, the first postmas- ter, having this in mind, suggested Fair- play as the title of the office, which was adopted by the department, and a few years ago the company changed the name of the station to correspond to the post- office. Mr. Blackburn was succeeded by C. B. Templeton on May 1, 1865, and Jacob Adrian, S. Crider and John Jarvis later.
Unionport, twenty-five miles west of Steubenville, was laid out by William and Jolın Hervey on October 24, 1852, the plat containing fifty-two lots, with Front, Mar- ket and South Streets running parallel with Cross Creek, intersected by West, Second, Third and Fourth. It soon became quite au industrial center, and on the opening of the S. & I. Railroad, a year Jater, was a leading shipping point for that section, and was for a while the western terminus of the Cresswell postoffice was established at Skelly's station on the S. & I Railroad in 1869, with James Keyes as postmaster, suc- ceeded by Robert Jollie, Amos Hammond, John Boop and John Montgomery. road. The town was originally laid out on the south side of the creek, but it soon spread to the other side and in June, 1879, this section was made a part of the town. Although not incorporated, it became the busiest village in the township, with a pop- SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES. ulation of about 250. The first store started here was by Coleman & Hervey in 1854, and The first teachers in Bloomfield were Isaac Hohes, John Haughey and John Dunlap. There is now a good brick build- ing in the village, containing an elementary and high school. Other schoolhonses in the township are in Section 3, Moores; 5, Pos- sum Hollow; 7.

Thomas Potts started a wagon shop in 1847, which under his sons grew to quite an extensive car- riage factory, followed by marble works of J. J. Gruber in 1874. An account of the Exchange mills, the chief industry, is given elsewhere. Unionport Lodge, No. 333, F. & A. M., was chartered October 16, 1861, with the following charter members from The religious history of Wayne Town- ship begins with the organization of the Smithfield Lodge: Eli Wolf, F. M .; George Pott, F. S. W .; William Herron, . First Baptist Church in Steubenville on F. J. W .; Charles Mather, Warner Grimes. William Miser, Edward Hall, Samnel Sproat and Joseph Adrian. Later K. of P. Lodge, No. 369, was instituted, and subse- quently D. F. Mizer Post, No. 677, G. A. R. The Unionport band has been a feature at different gatherings throughout the county. The postoffice was established in 1854, with James Waggoner postmaster, followed by William Herron in 1857, Sam- uel Vorhes, 1865; David Matlack, 1871, Harvey Poland and S. Crider later. May 17, 1812, whose early history and re- moval in March 1814 will be found related in the chapter on Steubenville. Its first meeting in its new location appears to have heen on March 5, 1814, at the house of Mor- decai Cole, near the present site of Union- port. Sessions were held at different pri- vate houses for over three years, some of the members traveling from three to six- teeu miles, and on September 20, 1817, there is a minute of a meeting at the house of Peter Hesser, when. after preaching, Fairplay, the third office in the town- ship, was established at Bloomfield station in 1858. There was some feeling on the Thomas White and Zachariah Prichard presented letters from Thumb Run Church, of Farquier County, Virginia, and were ad-

mitted as members. Most of the members, however, seem to have attended the regular Baptist Church at Hopedale, Harrison County, during the next six years, but in 1823 they reorganized under the name of Pine Run Church, and a new hewn log building was erected adjoining the present Tipton place in Section 30, in the northwest corner of the township. It was dedicated the same year by Elijah Stone, the first pastor, followed by John Long, Thomas W. Greer, Solomon Sells, George Jones, George Wharton, George C. Sedgwick, Mr. Squibb and Washington Glass. There were eight charter members, James and Rebecca Shockney, Lnke and Theresa Tipton, Thomas and Deborah Rowland, and An- drew and Hannah Roloson. A Sunday school was started and the congregation flourished for a number of years, when the center of population having apparently moved in the direction of Section 14, a couple of miles southeast of Bloomfield and five from the old church, a movement was started to build a new church there under the name of Mount Moriah. An organi- zation was effected on July 6, 1861, with a sermon by Rev. W. R. McGowan, J. Davis and G. C. Sedgwick assisting in the exer- cises, the latter becoming pastor, S. B. Thorp, clerk ; Andrew Ralston, W. P. Sann- ders, W. Merriman and G. W. Ralston, dea- cons; John Cole, Jolm L .. Megrail and John Walden, trustees. The membership was thirty-five. Meetings were held in a barn until the summer of 1862 when John and Thomas Cole gave an acre of land on which the present honse was built. Smithfield Chapter, R. A. M., gave $20 to purchase lamps, for which a vote of thanks was re- turned. A Sunday school was organized, but in the fall of 1864 Mr. Sedgwick, the pastor enlisted in the army, and in Novem- ber of that year he was succeeded by S. D. Ross, who remained two years. His health failing, he was sncceeded by Rev. W. J. Dunn on October 1. 1866, who remained five years. In 1873 Sedgwick was recalled. After the establishment of Mt. Moriah, Pine Run was unable to keep up its organi-
zation, and no meetings have been held there for many years, but the building is still standing. A colored Baptist Church was established at MeIntyre in 1870.
The M. E. Church at Bloomfield was or- ganized about 1828, and the first building erected in 1842, which was a brick edifice 42x32, costing $1,200. The original num- ber of members was forty, and a Sunday school was started in 1844 with forty schol- ars. The Bloomfield circuit now includes Hopedale, Long's and Unionport, the pas- tors for the last twenty-five years being : R. S. Strahl, 1886; James Walls, 1887-89; A. W. Gruber. 1890-92; D. W. Knight, 1893- 1895: E. T. Mohn, 1896-99; J. A. Rutledge, 1900-2; T. W. Anderson, 1903-4; L. O. Eld- redge, 1905-8; H. W. Stewart, 1909-10. A new brick structure, seating about 350 was built in 1881. The Unionport M. E. Church was organized in 1863-64, the first meet- ings being held in the old brick school- house, until it burned, and sessions were held in the new frame school building until the fall of 1874, when they built a new honse. It was dedicated by Rev. I. C. Pershing, of Pittsburg, assisted by W. D. Starkey, the minister in charge. It started with fourteen members, since considerably enlarged, and a flourishing Sunday school added. Hays Chapel at Cresswell is an old organization attached to Wintersville cirenit, with Centre Chapel and connty in- firmary. The colored settlement in Mc- Intyre has an M. E. Church, established in 1845, with a Sunday school attached.
The United Presbyterian Church of Bloomfield, was organized October 10, 1871, in the Presbyterian Church by Rev. J. A. Morrow, with thirty-five members. David and Joseph Hervey and Samuel McCoy were the first elders, and Ebenezer, J. B., and William H. Hervey, James Keyes and Samuel McCoy were appointed trustees. In 1872 they completed a brick church, cost- ing $4,000, which was dedicated Novem- ber 14 by Rev. Kennedy, of Steubenville. Their first pastor was Rev. Mr. Jamison, who served until April 10, 1876, and occa- sionally in connection with Piney Fork

until September 11, 1888. Rev. K. Me- 12, 1807, the county commissioners, "on Farland served in 1891-92, J. D. Oldham, 1894-96; D. J. White, 1899-1902; G. E. Henderson, 1906-8, since which time the charge has been vacant.
There was' formerly an M. P. organiza- tion in Bloomfield, and the building, used as a schoolhouse, is still standing, but there have been no services for over fifty years.
A Disciple Church was organized many years ago in Section 36, just outside of Unionport, and a brick building was erect- ed, which is still in use.
Unionport Presbyterian Church was or- ganized on June 14, 1874, by a committee from Steubenville Presbytery, consisting of Rev. Israel Price. Rev. T. V. Milligan and Henry Hammond. The original members, twenty-three in number, were: John and Elizabeth Welday, James and Mary Reed, Mrs. Mary Reed, Mrs. Sarah J. MeNary, Alexander Porter, J. P. Lyle. C. M. Jones, Emma C. Jones, John and Sarah Moore, William and Esther Crenery, Jonas and Ella Amspoker, John J. and Mrs. Mary Gruber, John and Anna Cameron, George Polen, Mrs. Mary A. Whitmore and Miss Mary Crenery, Messrs. Porter, Reed, Wel- day and Moore were elected elders, and Cameron, Gruber and Jones installed as deaeons. A house of worship was erected the same year and dedicated on February 4, 1875. Rev. Alexander Swaney was in- stalled pastor, who served quite a nmber of years. Revs. McNary and J. G. Black have been subsequent pastors.
A Presbyterian Church was organized at Bloomfield early in the century, and a frame building erected in 1827. It was re- placed by a substantial brick structure in 1876. Among the early pastors were Rev. Messrs. Boyd and Parkinson, followed by Samuel Forbes for fifteen years, Rev. Min- ameyer, M. W. Simpson and D. W. Mac- leod. There is no regular pastor at present.
SALEM TOWNSHIP.
In the original five townships Salem was part of Steubenville, but on Friday, June
application set off and incorporated the Tenth Township of the Third Range into a separate township and election distriet, to be distinguished and known by the name of Salem Township, and the first election to be held at the house of David Coe." As this description indicates, this civil town- ship corresponds to the government sur- veys, having thirty-six sections, with Ross Township on the north, Island Creek on the east, Wayne on the south and Spring- field and Harrison County on the west. It is rugged, being drained on the north by the Town Fork of Yellow Creek, and on the south by Cedar and Clay Liek, Burke's and Lease's Runs, tributary to Cross Creek. It is a good farming section, and has coal and oil, although the development of these minerals has not been so extensive as in the adjoining townships. It is scarce- ly necessary to say that settlers were here long before the organization of the town- ship. They began coming in 1798-99. and when the above order was made among those already on the ground were Jacob Coe, James Moores, Henry Miser, Edward Devine, Joseph Talbott, Rev. Joseph Hall (one of the pioneer Methodist Episcopal ministers), Henry Hammond (brother of Charles Hanmond, the able lawyer and most noted of the carly Ohio editors, whose work received Jefferson's praise), Joseph Hobson, Stephen Ford, Baltzer Culp, Will- iam Farquhar, John Collins, Ezekiel Cole, Jolm Walker, John Johnson. William Bai- ley, James Bailey, James MeLain, Adam Miser. William Smith, John Andrew (a sol- dier of the Revolutionary War and a colo- nel in the War of 1812; bis remains are buried in the graveyard on the hill at Salem Village) ; John Gillis, Sr., Francis Donglas, William Leslie, David Lyons, John Hogue, John MeComb, Thomas and Patrick Hardemnadder, Daniel Markham, Benjamin Hartman, Isaac Helmick, John Sunderland, John Wilson, William Mugg, William Vantz, Henry Jackman, Jacob Vantz, Andrew Strayer.
