Mr. Phillips weut to the war in 1812, his family remain- ing in Salem, and after his return, in 1816, made the pur- chase of Mr. Snyder, and erected a tannery, which was in operation until 1861. Isaac R., his son, lives on the original farm, which he has increased by purchase to 100 acres. Sarah, a daughter, now Mrs. Campbell, lives on section 18.

SECTION XXI.

Chillian Long came from Dauphin Co., Va., and entered the greater portion of section 21 and part of section 22. At his death it was divided among his children,-three sons and four daughters. It is now owned by J. Davidson, William McCracken, Jeremiah Betz, John Greenawalt, William Shinn, and others. The Hast Methodist church is on the section.

SECTION XXII.

This section was entered by quarter sections. Conrad Bennett took the northeast quarter, where is now the village of Franklin Square; Samuel Reeves the northwest quarter; Chillian Long the southeast quarter, which is now in the possession of his descendants; and Michael Mottinger the southwest quarter, which now (1879) is occupied by his son.

BECTION XXIII.

This section was entered about 1809, when the government permitted quarter sections to be entered. Henry Dixson, a Quaker, from Brownsville, Pa., in 1808, entered a quarter section on section 14, where Daniel Sweitzer, his son-in- law, lives ; and in 1809, March 20, entered the northeast quarter of section 23, where his son-in law, Simon S. Pep- pel, now lives. He entered also the southeast quarter in 1810, and a part of the west half a little later. It was divided among his children. William Harrison, a son-in- law, had a part of it, which was afterwards sold to John Lorens, and by him sold to John Peppel. The old home- stead is on section 24; the brick house built by Mr. Dixson is yet standing, and is the residence of Daniel Sweitzer.

SECTION XXIV.

Martin Hoke, from Lancaster Co., Pa., came to the town- ship, located this section, and entered it at Steubenville, in 1804, and returned home, intending to come out with his fam- ily the following spring. Before that time arrived he died ; and his wife, with three children,-John, Henry, and Eliz- abeth,-came out and settled upon the land Mr. Hoke had entered .. It was afterwards divided into three parts. John had the northwest part, Henry the northeast part, and Elizabeth the south half. Elizabeth married Solomon Sitler, and her sons are living on the half section. A cemetery is located on the section, and therein rest the remains of many of the pioneers.

SECTION XXV.

Ephraim Holloway and Jacob Sweitzer, brothers-in-law of Martin Hoke, entered section 25 about the year 1804. The property passed into other hands. One of the early schools was kept on this section.

SECTION XXVI.

This section was entered by Reasin Beall, and by him sold to Henry Halverstadt, from Maryland, and it is still held mostly by his descendants.

SECTION XXVII.

The section was entered by Jacob Karns about 1808. William Groner, of Northampton Co., Pa., and Daniel Keck bought the southeast quarter about 1810. Their sons still occupy it. Daniel Burger bought the northeast quarter, where the Guys now reside, and Daniel Stewart the northwest quarter.' After Mr. Karns' death the south- west quarter was bought by Richard Boice, from near Liv- erpool, who sold it to William Aldridge. Mr. Karns was one of the original members of the "Hast Methodist church." A society of the denomination called " Al- brights" was formed at the house of Jacob Karns at an early day. Joseph Long, a son of Chillian, lived on this section, and became a bishop in the church of Evangelical Lutherans.

SECTION XXVIII.

A Mr. Frederick entered section 28, and afterwards sold the southeast quarter to Ezekiel More. It was subsequently sold to John Bricker and Joseph Long. Mr. Frederick sold the southwest quarter to James McKinley, who sold to Samuel Shelton, and the north half to Abram, Isaac, and James Blacklidge. In 1824 the northwest quarter passed by sale to Garrett Hast, of Washington Co., Pa., who had lived on section 31 about fifteen years. His son Garrett is now (1879) living on the farm. Nathaniel McCracken purchased a quarter of this section in 1812.

SECTION XXIX.

Jonathan Skyhawk entered this section. He did not keep it long, but sold it to Jordan Jones, who afterwards sold to C. K. Betz, who still owns the larger part of the west half. The east half was bought by Jesse Dickinson, from Greene Co., Pa., in 1804, who came in with his wife, three sons, and five daughters. The land was divided among the children. Benjamin now lives on part of the farm. One daughter, Mrs. Rachel Ryan, lives in Wash- ingtonville; another, Mrs. Tabitha Thomas, resides in the west part of Salem township. Mr. Dickinson died at the age of forty years.

SECTION XXX.

Preston Peck, a native of Loudon Co., Va., came to this county in 1804, and settled on section 30, in the township of Salem. He established his home on the northeast quarter of the section. Ann, his oldest daughter, married Robert Yates, who came in 1807, and took the southwest quarter of the same section. William, a son, is living on the homestead farm. He was about six years old when his father made the settlement.

HISTORY OF COLUMBIANA COUNTY, OHIO.

James Yates, a brother of Robert, bought the west half of the section, and divided it into three parts. Benjamin Yates had the south part, Robert the middle, and James the north part. Benjamin gave the east half to his sons, Edward and John. Edward resided there while he lived. John remained twenty-eight years, and then sold his prop- erty and . moved to Michigan. William, son of Robert, moved to the place where Benjamin lived, the latter having removed to Michigan.

SECTION XXXI.

William Teegarden* was a brother-in-law of Levi Black- lidge, they having married sisters. He came to Salem township in the summer of 1804, entered section 31, and built a log house where James Palmer now resides. The section was entered with the understanding that it should be divided between William Teegarden, Uriah White, and Robert Blacklidge. Uriah White had the west third, 207 acres ; William Teegarden, the middle, 222 acres ; and Robert Blacklidge, the east third, 214 acres.

William Teegarden, with his wife, son Uriah, daughter Elizabeth, and the mother of Mrs. Teegarden, came to this township by the road from New Lisbon, in April, 1805, and arrived about sunset on the southeast bank of the creek, opposite the cabin of Levi Blacklidge. Mr. Teegarden hailed across the creek to Levi, and was directed to ford the stream about twenty rods farther down, near a large oak-tree, and keep on the upper side of the fording-place to avoid a large rock in the channel. The crossing was quickly made, when there ensued a joyful meeting of the sisters, and of mother and daughter. They remained that night in Levi's humble log cabin, and the next morning continued the journey to their own little home. Uriah's first job was to ungear the team. This done, he was sent out with his sister, Eliza- beth, to gather leaves with which to fill the beds.

In 1850, William Teegarden sold the farm to James Farmer, who now owns and occupies it. Uriah White re- tained his farm until his death, when it passed to his sons, James and Thomas. Robert Blacklidge leased his farm, in 1806, to Garrett Hast, who lived there about fifteen years, when the place was sold to John Howenstein, who sold it to George Farmer.

SECTION XXXII.

Levi Blacklidge, of Washington Co., Pa., in 1803 en- tered section 32. In 1804 he came out with his wife and daughter Sarah, Robert Blacklidge (a cousin), and one or two laborers. He built a grist-mill during the summer of 1804, on the middle fork of Beaver Creek, where the mill of Uriuh Teegarden now stands. The next year he put up a saw-mill, a few rods below the grist-mill. This mill stood twelve years, and in 1816 he erected a frame mill on the old site, which is still standing.

Mr. Blacklidge gave 80 acres in the southeast quar- ter, where Solomon Shive lives, to Mahlon Ervin, an apprentice.

After his death, which occurred about the year 1812, the lund was given to his brothers Abram and James, and the mill property and 165 acres to his daughter Sarah, who

married Nathan Harris. Uriah Teegarden bought the mill property ; William Yates bought 165 acres, which was afterwards sold to John Hanna, who now occupies it.

The iron mines worked by B. F. Lewis are on land belonging to Uriah Teegarden.

A post-office was established at Teegarden Station in 1868. Uriah Teegarden was the first postmaster, and was succeeded by Nathan Hendricks, who still holds the position. The first store was kept by William Skinner, about 1830. " Teegarden Station," on the Niles and New Lisbon Rail- road, is ou this section.

SECTION XXXIII.

This section was entered by Basil Wells. In 1806, Abram Arter, of Maryland, bought the northwest quarter, and, with George Butz, bought the northeast quarter.

Andrew Brinker bought the southeast quarter and willed it to Abby, his daughter, who married Samuel Wall. Their son, Peter Wall, lives on the farm. Conrad Wormer bought the southwest quarter, which was afterwards sold to Wm. Teegarden. Abram Arter built his first log cabin where his son Simon now lives, on the northwest quarter. A coal mine is on the Arter farm, and is worked by residents of Cleveland.

SECTION XXXIV.

Matthias Stewart, of Maryland, came to this township in 1811, and entered the southwest quarter of section 34. About the same time, John Bricker entered the northwest quarter. Daniel Burger, and Nicholas, his father, in 1807- 8 entered the northeast quarter, and Henry Wormer the southeast quarter. The descendants of the early settlers are still living on the several farms.

A log church was built nearly in the middle of the township in 1812. The people in this neighborhood were "Lutherans" and " Reformed Lutherans," and united in the erection of the church.

SECTION XXXV.

A Mr. Simon, from Washington Co., Pa., entered this section in 1809. The next year, his two sons, George and Andrew, built a log house on the northeast corner of the section, where Henry Brinker, son of Andrew, now lives. A year later, a saw-mill was built on the creek, near where now lives Adam Simon, a grandson of the first owner. The descendants of Jonathan Lodge live in the southeast quarter of this section.

SECTION XXXVI.

This section was entered by speculators, who sold the east half, in 1805, to Jonathan Lodge, who came from Loudon Co., Va. In 1807 he hired a man named Jasper Crandall, who lived in the south part of the county, to raise a log house, with a roof. In the spring of 1808, with his wife and nine children,-James, Benjamin, Abram, William, Evan, Catharine, Mary, Sarah, and Elizabeth,- he came to the location. The log house not yet being in condition to live in, they moved into a log cabin situated a little east of their own, and which had been used for a school-house. In this cabin they lived about three weeks. The work of clearing had commenced, and every one of this

. Spelled by the first settlers of that name, "Teagarden."

family found something to do. Soon land was cleared and grain sowed.

The land remained in Mr. Lodge's possession until his death, in 1844, when Jonathan and Evan succeeded to 196 acres in the northeast corner. Evan sold his part to Jona- than (where the latter now lives), and bought a farm in Elk Run township. William had 120 acres in the southeast corner.

Andrew Briuker came to the township in 1804, and bought the west half of the section. At his death it was divided among his children. His daughter, Sarah, had 200 acres, which, at her death, passed, by the terms of her will, to " Heidelberg College" . and other institutions .. Mr. Brinker was one of the original members of the Reformed Lutheran church of Salem township, as was also his son, Henry, who now lives on section 35, west of where his father first settled.

VILLAGES. LEETONIA.

This village is on the northern edge of Columbiana County, and was named after William Lee, of Randolph, N. Y., one of the corporators of the Leetonia Coal and Iron Company, by which company it was laid out in 1866-67. It is situated in a rich farming district, on the line of the Pitts- burgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, at the crossing of the Niles and New Lisbon Railroad. The latter road conveys to Leetonia the ore of the Beaver and Mahoning Valleys, while the former transports to her furnaces the rich ore of Lake Superior. Underneath the surface are inex- haustible veins of coal.

Leetonia contains a population of 2800, and has six churches (Presbyterian, United Presbyterian, Methodist, St. John's German Lutheran, St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran, and St. Barbara's Catholic), a union school, one bank, post- office, three hotels, two drug-stores, four dry-goods stores, fifteen groceries, four societies, a printing-office, photograph- gallery, two cabinet-shops, four blacksmith-shops, two brick- kilns, two shoe-shops, three clothing-stores, two millinery- stores, three harness shops, two livery-stables, a hardware- store, and two tin-shops. There are also two resident dentists, four physicans, and four attorneys.

The first hotel was opened by Joseph Meek in March, 1866, in an old brick farm-house, now known as the " Lee- tonia House." It was situated on what was previously the farm of David Hardman, who was succeeded in its owner- ship by John Yoder. This farm-house and one owned by a Mr. Anglemyer were the only buildings in Leetonia prior to the erection of the railroad station-house, in 1865.t

A petition was presented by M. E. Taggart to the com- missioners of the county (dated March 1, 1869, and signed by 110 voters), praying for the incorporation of a village, to be called " Leetonia," and setting forth the pro- posed boundaries. This petition was amended May 6, 1869,

. Date of commission.

About the time of the completion of the station-house, a fire con- sumed a barn near by, and twelve valuable horses belonging to the contractor, James McHenry, perished in the flames. It was believed to be the work of an incendiary.

WASHINGTONVILLE.

This village was laid out by Michael Frederick, and in- corporated in 1844, but not organized uutil some years later. Henry Snyder was the first mayor. David Williams is the present mayor, and Elwood Bertolette the present clerk,-1879. A further description of this village will be found in the history of Green township, in this volume.

FRANKLIN SQUARE.

This settlement is situated on the northeast quarter of section 22, which was entered by Conrad Bennett, and was luid out by Frederick Best, a subsequent purchaser. The first store was kept by Henry Dixon. Frederick Best carried on an extensive tannery in the early days of the settlement. The first post-office was established in 1844. The postmasters have been Frederick Best, Charles Budd, Daniel Robinson, David Snyder, John Derodes, and James Peeples, the present incumbent. The village contains a church (Methodist), post-office, school-house, two black- smith-shops, two wagon-shops, one shoc-shop, a dry-goods store, and a drug store. One physician resides in the place.

SCHOOLS.

On section 10, where the present district school-house stands, was built the first log school-house of that neigh- borhood, on land given by Jacob Bossert. Daniel Pesky was one of the first teachers.

The log church in section 34 was used for a school-house. Jacob Barger and Henry Chumper were among the first teachers in that vicinity and in that house. Jonathan Lodge came into the township about 1808, and moved into a log building which had been used for a school-house. It stood about one hundred rods east from the present resi- dence of his son Jonathan. The school-house was in Fair-

field township, but the children from far and near went there to school. Among the first teachers was John Daniels. School was held in this house as late as 1814-15.

A log cabin was built for a school-house in 1822, where now is the grave-yard, near William McCracken's present residence. The first teacher was Arthur G. Hayden ; and Jerre Becson was among those who early followed.

A school-house was built in 1808 or '9 in the southeast quarter of section 30. Hugh Demings, a Quaker, was the first teacher. This house stood for a year or two, when it caught fire from the fireplace and was consumed. Another was soon built, near where the present district school-house stands.

A log school-house was built on section 14 about the year 1820. A Methodist minister, named Isaac Winings, was among the first teachers.

In or near the year 1817 school was kept in a log cabin situated on the southeast quarter of section 23, where now stands the old red house which once belonged to Simon Peppel. William Harrison and John Daniels were among the first teachers. Mrs. Solomon Sitler, then Elizabeth Hoke, and living on section 24, used to attend that school.

The enumeration of children between the ages of four and twenty years, in the ten whole districts and three parts of districts, was as follows on Oct. 1, 1838: males, 395 ; females, 370; total, 765.

The enumeration for 1878, exclusive of the Union Dis- trict, of children between the ages of four and twenty, was as follows: males, 277; females, 244; total, 521. There were unmarried, between six and twenty-one, 522; between sixteen and twenty-one, 141.

April 15, 1872, the districts were changed, and now are seven in number, besides the Leetonia district, which is separate, and is called the " Union District."

A school-house was built in 1872, on district No. 5, at a cost of $1163.19; and in 1874 one was built in district No. 2 at a cost of $1224, and one in No. 4, costing $900.

The following persons constitute the present board of education, 1879: Jonas Baker, Jonathan Harris, Herod Lodge, S. E. Stratton, J. S. Halverstadt, Peter Wall, J. B. Yates.

UNION SCHOOL DISTRICT-LEETONIA.

A call to the voters of the village of Leetonia was issued early in 1870, for a meeting to be held February 12th, to consider whether the corporation should become a separate school district. After due deliberation, it was decided in favor of a separate district, and Joseph Meek, James Har- per, F. Fillnagle, M. E. Taggart, J. B. Gillespie, and S. C. Mellinger were chosen directors. J. Meek was chosen president, and M. E. Taggart, clerk. Within the year, two lots on the south side were purchased from William Mc- Donald for $500, upon which it was decided to build a school-house 26 by 36 feet in size, at a cost of $775. Allan Smith was chosen principal June 28, 1870, and was followed by R. A. Gillson, in 1871.

April 17, 1872, on motion of J. G. Chamberlain, it was resolved to purchase a site and build a school-building, not to exceed in cost $25,000, and to issue bonds for the pur- pose. July 3, 1872, it was voted that $10,000 be added to the $25,000. A contract was entered iuto with Benja-
