CHAPTER XI.

YORK TOWNSHIP.

T HE history of the formation of York Township, as exhibited on the pages of the Commissioners' journal, is as follows:

December 3, 1833-The Board of Commissioners ordered that a new town- ship be laid off on the north end of Liberty Township, to be called York; commencing on the east boundary of said Liberty Township, five miles north of the southeast corner thereof; thence west, parallel to the south boundary of said Liberty Township, to the west boundary thereof; all north thereof to the north boundary of the county of Union to be considered in the said township of York, to be surveyed by Levi Phelps, when it may suit his convenience, previous to March session next.

March 4, 1834-The board took into consideration the report of Levi Phelps, surveyor, on his proceeding in laying off the township of York, and its appearing to said Board that it would be more convenient to the townships of both Liberty and York to remove the line as now run, one mile further north; it is, therefore, ordered that the said Phelps, at some time prior to the next June session, re-survey the said township of York, commencing on the east line of the township of Liberty at the sixth mile tree, being six miles north of the southeast corner of the township of Liberty as originally estab- lished; thence to run west with the southern boundary thereof to the western boundary of the county; all north to be considered as the township of York.

December 4, 1834-A petition was presented by William Hartford, pray- ing for a reconsideration of their order for running the line between the townships of Liberty and York, and an alteration; whereupon it is ordered by the board that the said line shall begin five miles north of the southeast corner of the township of Liberty, on the east line thereof; thence running west, parallel to the south line thereof three and one-half miles; thence north, par- allel with the east line of said township one mile and 242 poles; thence west parallel to the south line of the township to the western boundary of the county.

In 1836, York Township was divided, and Washington formed from the northern division. It would be impracticable to follow the numerous changes that have been made in the boundaries of York. As constituted at present,

514

its northern and western boundaries are regular. The western boundary is the county line, with Logan County beyond. The northern boundary is the Greenville treaty line, separating York from Washington Township. On the east is Claibourne Township, and on the south Liberty and Taylor. The boundary lines between York and these three townships do not cut any sur- veys, and are, in consequence, irregular.

The organization of York Township was completed by the election of township officers April 7, 1834.

Bokes Creek is the principal stream. It is formed by the confluence of several creeks on the western part of the township, and pursues an irregularly southeastern course. Fulton Creek crosses the northeastern corner of the ter- ritory, and in the southern part are several tributaries of Bokes Creek. The surface is level, or gently rolling. The soil is clay, with sandy bottoms along the streams. The timber consisted of beech, sugar, elm, hickory, oak and other varieties.

One of the earliest pioneers of York Township was Joseph Miller. He was born in Ballston, Saratoga Co., N. Y., and spent his youthful days in that vicinity. He was married to Jemima Wilkins in 1801, and to them were born three sons and one daughter. Mr. Miller, with his family, removed to Ohio in 1817, and purchased land in Franklin County, along the Scioto River. After making considerable improvement on this land, he lost it by reason of a defective title. After this misfortune, he located a survey in what is now the northeast corner of York Township. He and his two surviving sons, Jonathan G. and James Charles, became the first setters upon this tract. His daughter Evaline, wife of Aaron Everett, remained in Franklin County. Mr. Miller and his son Jonathan G. first came out with their families about February, 1828. There was then no road to guide them to their new home west of the

516

HISTORY OF UNION COUNTY.

site of Richwood, and Henry Swartz, of Claibourne Township, who had hunted over this country and was familiar with it, marked out a road for them by hacking trees along the line. By cutting away the underbrush, and winding about a great deal, the Millers reached their destination after a tedious jour- ney. The latter part of their route was the first road-if road it might be called-leading from Richwood westward. The cabin was raised on the site of Benjamin Thomas' brick residence, some little distance west of the Presby- terian Church, by the aid of a few men who accompanied them from Franklin County for this purpose. They brought with them two teams, a scanty lot of household goods and a few sheep, hogs and cows. The sheep soon disap- peared, and were never seen afterward, having probably fallen a prey to the ravenous wolves that infested the forests. For awhile the Millers traded, and bought the groceries they needed at Worthington, Franklin County. Joseph Miller erected a cabin, and lived on the same place with his son Jonathan. He possessed some means, was industrious and performed many acts of kindness to the new settlers who followed him into this settlement. He was modest and unassuming, but the earnest friend of every measure to promote the intel- ligence and morals of the community in which he lived. He was a member of the Episcopal Church, and as such communed with the Presbyterian Church in his immediate vicinity, of which his wife was a member, and to which he gave a cordial support. He died in York Township August 31, 1866, aged ninety two years and nearly eight months.
