Hiram P. Barlow came to the Maumee Val- ley in 1816, settling at Orleans (Fort Meigs). Subsequently he took a farm at Presque Isle, on the North side of the River, and near to Turkey-Foot Rock, where he built a house. He taught School at Orleans during the winter of 1816-17, and is believed to have been the first School teacher in the Maumee Valley. He was married with a daughter of Victory Jennison, one of the early settlers at the Foot of the Rapids. Mr. Barlow, near Waterville, built (for John Pray) the first Distillery, and one of the first Grist. Mills, in the Valley. The Mill was driven by ox-power. The first water- power Mill was built at Brunersburgh, now Henry County, by Mr. Perkins. The first Saw-Mill was that of Leaming, father of Thos. Leaming, at Monclova, in 1812. Driven away by the Indians as the Mill was nearly com- pleted, Mr. Leaming returned to find it in ashes. Subsequently he rebuilt, a short distance from the former site, and where a Mill now stands.
WAYNESFIELD TOWNSHIP.
WAYNESFIELD TOWNSHIP.
Waynesfiehl was the first Township in Ohio organized North of the Maumee River. Its original territory lying over against Fort Meigs, embraced Fort Miami; the British Bat- tery on the point opposite Fort Meigs; the scene of the Dade massacre; the land-mark known as Turkey Foot Rock ; and spread over a soil full of historie interest, and saturated with the blood of the carly defenders of our Nation. shed in warfare against the British and their Indian allies.
Any historical account of this part of Lucas County would be imperfect, which omitted the early occupation by the French of a fortified Post at what is now known as Fort Miami. This Post was on the left bank of the Maumee River, on a high point of land, from whence can be seen, spread out like a map, 20 miles of the course of the River, flowing in gentle curves, from the foot of the Rapids away to the Northeast, to where it reaches the waters of the Bay, which skirt the distant horizon with a silver line and conduct the River to Lake Erie. To this day, the lines of the British Fort built on the same site, are clearly legible in grass- grown ditches, and bold embankments, and the hollow way leading to the River.
This position had commanding advantages as a military post, and the eye of the French Engineer was quick to mark it and make it part of the system of fortifications intended to reach from the great Lakes to the Mississippi and to seenre the dominion of France over the water-shed of the Lake region and the Ohio and Mississippi Valleys. At this Fort was established the first permanent settlement of' the white man in Ohio. When France sur- rendered her American possessions to Eng- land in 1760, an English garrison occupied the old French Fort, fortified it in a regular manner and called it Fort Campbell. Mementoes of French occupation remain on the River from its head waters at Fort Wayne to the Maumee Bay, in the names of the descendants of the oldest families, some of whom preceded the ad- vent of the first Americans by at least a half century.
Waynesfield Township lies on the South- eastern border of Lucas County and is bound- ed on the North and East by Springfield and Adams Townships, on the Southeast by the Maumee River, and on the West by the Town- ship of Monclova. Its present area is about 30 square miles, it having been greatly reduced from its original dimensions by the detachment of portions of its territory to form other Town- ships. The Township was originally includ- ed in the County of Logan, erected by an act of the Ohio Legislature passed December 30, 1817, and was named Waynesfield in honor of
General Anthony Wayne. It was also appro- priate as including the field in which Wayne had achieved his splendid victories over the Indians, in 1794.
In 1820 the County of Wood was erected from the Northern part of Logan County, and Waynesfield was its only organized Township on the North side of the Maumee River until 1835, when Lucas County was set off from the parts of Wood and Henry Counties lying ad. jacent to the then disputed boundary of Mich- igan and North of the Maumee River. During the " Toledo War" the Commissioners of Lucas County at a special meeting held October 12, 1835, extended the civil jurisdiction of Waynes- field to the Northern boundary of the State as claimed by Ohio ; thus practically obliterating, for the time being, the Township of Port Law- rence, which remained in a state of suspended animation for three days, and during the State election. That crisis having passed, it was re- stored October 15, 1835, to its proper jurisdic- tion.
The next reduction of the area of Waynes- field was effected by the erection of Springtick, June 20, 1836. Monclova was set off. taking another portion of its territory, March 11. 1853; and Adams (under the name of Carey), De- cember 3, 1856. On June 3, 1856, all that part of Springfield and Monclova lying South of the North line of Sections 25 and 26. Town Two, U. S. Reserve, including all of Private Grant 682, was re-annexed to Waynesfield. .
REAL ESTATE RECORD.
The first record made at the Recorder's office of Wood County related to lands in Waynes- field Township, and consisted of the plat of Maumee City prepared by A. I. Wheeler for John E. Hunt, in August, 1818. It contained 109 lots 75x132 feet. Of these, three lots at the Southwest corner of Conant and Detroit Streets were set apart for public ground; and two at the Northwest corner of Gibbs and Detroit Streets were set apart for Church and School purposes. The plat was acknowledged before Seneca Allen, Justice of the Peace for the County of Logan. Mr. Allen then resided at Orleans, below the site of Fort Meigs.
The first transfer of property recorded in Wood County was the deed of Thomas Leam- ing to Ephraim II. Leaming, July 21, 1821, for 160 acres of land in Section 5, Waynestiold Township.
The next was the deed of Aurora Spafford to David Hull, dated December 14, is19, of a lot in Maumee for $ 100.
