The trials of these early pioneers were more severe, if possible, at first than most of the pioneers of the town- ship experienced, from the fact that many of them were unskilled in the use of the axe, while their possessions were covered with a dense forest, which required skilled axemen to remove. But what they lacked in skill they made up in industry, pluck and perseverance; they suc- ceeded in clearing their lands and making them pro- ductive, and now have some of the choicest farms in the township, with good dwellings, barns, implements of hus- bandry, fine orchards, and sheep, cattle and horses.
About forty years ago they erected a small chapel, wherein they worshiped for a number of years. About sixteen years ago they erected on the farm of David Bowen a more substantial church edifice, costing about $1,500, which was paid for when completed. Among the ministers who have officiated in the old and the new church are the Rev. Mr. Davis, Rev. Richard Jones, Rev. Evan Davis, Rev. - - Peregrine, Rev. J. F. Calkins, Rev. Henty Harris and Rev. F. Tilo Evans, the latter being the present minister.

WHITNEYVILLE EAST CHARLESTON POST-OFFICE .
Whitneyville is situated within a mile of the western line of Richmond township, and in the northeastern por- tion of the township of Charleston. It contains one store, a grocery, a millinery shop, two shoe shops, two blacksmith shops, a steam saw and feed mill, a school- house with conveniences for two teachers, a wagon shop, a steam carding mill, a Methodist church, a phy- sician's office, a cheese factory and about thirty dwel- lings. The first settlers were Lemuel Churchill, Asa Churchill, Tyrus Rice and Solomon Rice. The first road leading from Whitneyville to Spencer's mills at Canoe Camp was cut out by Tyrus and Solomon Rice. Elijah Grennell was also an early settler.
About thirty-four years ago Alonzo Whitney and his county, N. Y., and purchased lands in and surrounding the present village, and at various times they were en- gaged in merchandizing, lumbering, farming, etc. Alonzo Whitney built a carding machine, and subsequently a steam saw mill. About the year 1863 a stock company was organized for the purpose of manufacturing cheese, in which the Whitneys were largely interested. The village increased in population, a number of good build- ings were erected, and for a time Whitneyville was a stirring and thriving hamlet. It was surrounded by an excellent farming country, and large quantities of merchandise were sold. A reaction took place, and for several years business has been depressed; but now there are signs of its reviving. The village was named in honor of Alonzo Whitney.
Captain Nelson Whitney, son of Alonzo Whitney, is an energetic man and has done much toward advancing the business enterprises of the place. He was born in Tompkins county, N. Y., January 5th 1823, and learned the trade of turner. He was married in 1847 at Corn- ing, N. Y., to Miss Susan C. Parcel, by whom he had nine children, eight of whom are living-five girls and three boys. He came to Whitneyville in 1848 and en- gaged in farming, merchandizing, lumbering, etc. He
In the graveyard at Whitneyville are buried many of the old settlers of that vicinity, including the Smiths, John Calkins, the Keyes, Lewis and Thankful Pitts, the Wilcoxes, Solomon J. Rice and Diana his wife, David Hulslander and Lucy his wife, the Gerows, and Almira, wife of Robert H. Pratt. Mr. Pratt, who survives his wife, settled in 1837 at Whitneyville, purchasing fifty acres; and he is now residing just over the township line in Richmond with his son Edward Pratt, at the advanced age of 91.

HILL'S CREEK AND DUTCH SETTLEMENT.
The pioneer settler on Hill's Creek and in the vicinity served as quartermaster with the rank of major in the of what is now known as Dutch Settlement, Irish Settle- 13th division Pennsylvania militia from April 21st to July 21st 1861. On the 6th of August 1861 he was ordered to raise a company to serve during the war. On the 14th of October of the same year he was commissioned cap- tain of Company G 45th Pennsylvania volunteers, and served till July 3d 1862, when he resigned. He again ment, Ferry Settlement, etc., was Jacob Schiefflein. He was a prominent and remarkable man, and we give a brief sketch of his life. He was born in the city of New York, April 20th 1793. His father, Jacob, was born in Philadelphia, August 24th 1757, and his grandfather in Germany, February 4th 1732. The subject of our sketch

HISTORY OF TIOGA COUNTY.
when but 17 years of age was an ensign in the militia, at 20 a captain, and at 22 a colonel, which position he held until he removed to Tioga county in 1828. In 1810 he commenced the study of medicine with Dr. Onderdonk, afterward Episcopal bishop of Pennsylvania. He attend- ed three courses of lectures at Columbia College, and obtained his diploma in 1822. After graduating he en- tered into partnership with his brother H. H. Schiefflein in the wholesale drug trade, and for five or six years thereafter spent his summers in New York and his win- ters in Savannah, Charleston, Mobile, New Orleans and Havana, acquiring a fair knowledge of the Spanish lan- guage. In 1824 he went to the city of Mexico and opened a branch store, which he conducted for two years, and then returned to New York. While in Mexico he be- came acquainted with Santa Anna, who was then a lieutenant in the Mexican cavalry. In 1827 he pur- chased several thousand acres of land in Tioga and Ly- coming counties, and in 1828 removed to Tioga county, locating on Hill's Creek. He cut a road through the unbroken wilderness for three miles. In 1830 he erected a saw-mill, and in 1831 built a large frame dwelling, now occupied by George A. Brewster. He sold large portions of his land at a very small price-it is said that he sold 1,000 acres for twenty bushels of wheat. Mr. Schiefflein was a gentleman of extended acquaintance, numbering among his friends in early life Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr, Robert Fulton, De Witt Clinton and other gentlemen of that stainp. His life in the wilds of Tioga county did not roughen his manners or his character. He was a man of sterling integrity and honesty. He died at Tioga, December 27th 1880, aged 87 years. His children were: Clinton, born in New York city, February 16th 1823, now living in Los Angelos, California (his sons Edward L. and Albert E. were the discoverers of the celebrated Tombstone mining district in Arizona); Alfred, born in New York, September 23d 1827, now re- siding in Charleston; Elizabeth, born in New York, May 23d 1829, now living at Tioga; Laura, born in Charles- ton, September 2nd 1831, who died at Elmira, September 18th 1866; Cornelia M., born in Charleston, February 4th 1834, now living in Los Angelos, Cal .; Edward G., born in Charleston, March 25th 1836, now residing at Stokesdale, Tioga county; Jacob Schiefflein jr., born in Charleston, April 18th 1838, now living in Tioga; and Hannah, born in Charleston, March 6th 1840, now living in Freeport, Illinois. Mr. Schiefflein can truly be called the pioneer of northern Charleston.
Among the old settlers in this vicinity were Chauncey Ferry, Charles Ferry sen., Chester Patridge and Tilden Cruttenden, and later Virgil Sweet, Marcus Benedict, John Sampson, William Hill, Thomas Kelly, James Roach and James Abernethy.
Solomon Bennett and Ira Newhall built a steam saw- mill at Hill's Creek in 1863-64. and after running it for a time sold it to Luther Bennett, and he to George P. Card. There were originally large quantities of pine timber on the lands on Hill's Creek. The country is now pretty well cleared of timber, and good farms are to be
seen where but a few years ago the forest was unbroken. Directly northeast of Hill's Creek Lemuel Churchill, father of Asa G. Churchill, the eccentric poet, made a settlement in a very early day, on the Churchill or Pat- ridge Marsh; he erected a small tannery about the year 1824, and tanned deerskins and other leather.
About forty-two years ago Robert Adams, a native of Ireland, settled on Hill's Creek about half a mile from the Schiefflein place, and purchased a quantity of wild land and cleared it up. He was accompanied by his father and mother, William and Nancy Adams. William Adams died March 7th 1861, aged 88 years. Nancy Adams died September 20th 1857, aged 86 years. Robert Adams has now about 300 acres, a large portion of which is under cultivation, with a fine dwelling, barns, etc. He owns the Elisha Keeney farn.
Elisha Keeney was an old settler on the creek. He was the son-in-law of Captain William Hill, in whose honor the creek was named. He died November 21st 1875, aged 70 years, 9 months and 24 days, and is buried in the Keeney school-house graveyard, on Hill's Creek. Captain Hill is buried beside him, but no stone marks his grave. The ground for this graveyard was given by Jacob Schiefflein sen. Catharine, wife of A. Schiefflein, is buried there, as well as two children of Clinton and Jane Schiefflein.
George A. Brewster, son of Jonah Brewster, who was prothonotary of the county of Tioga in 1838, moved into Charleston in 1853 and located the Schiefflein home- stead, which he has since very much improved and placed in proper shape for the profitable cultivation of the soil. He was born in Springfield, Otsego county, N. Y., April 15th 1809, and was married at Bridgeport, Susquehanna county, Pa., December 28th 1830, to Miss Ann Watrous, by whom he had eight children, five of whom are living. Thirty years ago, when he first located on Hill's Creek, the appearance of the country was very different from what it is now. He has been honored by his townsmen with the offices of supervisor, school director, etc., and is a prominent man in that locality.
Martin Clemmons, a native of Germany, settled in the northeastern portion of Charleston in 1844, and purchas- ed lands of Coffin Calket, of Philadelphia. He and his descendants have prospered.
DARTT SETTLEMENT.
Colonel Justus Dartt, a soldier of the Revolution, and colonel in the Vermont militia after the Revolution, settled in what is now known as Dartt Settlement in the year 1811. He purchased 160 acres, only ten of which had been cut over. At this time the only settlers in the whole township were Moses Wheeler, Levi Elliott, Oliver Willard, Sleeman Shumway, Caleb Austin, Nathan Niles, Rosel Bailey, and Timothy Culver. Charleston was then a portion of the township of Delmar.
The first school in the township of Charleston was opened in Dartt Settlement. Colonel Dartt was one of the county commissioners in 1815, and in 1817 was named one of the trustees of Wellsboro Academy in the

The superofsors elected were Thomas Sampson and Royal Porter; con- edifice in the township was built in Catlin Hollow, and the next year, through the energy of the Dartts, one was stables, David Henry and Oliver Willard.

Colonel Justus Dartt died July 5th 1838, aged 81 years, and his wife Hannah January 14th 1844, aged 86, and they are buried in the old graveyard near the church in Dartt Settlement. The remains of many of the old settlers lie in that silent city of the dead, among whom are Justus Dartt jr., who died June 16th 1865, aged 84 years and 6 months; Polly, his first wife, who died De- cember 13th 1819, aged 35 years; James G.

SCHOOLS.
In the early history of Charleston, from 1810 to 1820, private schools at private dwellings were the only schools
of Justus Dartt jr., who died in 1828, aged 37 years; in the township. At the latter date a number of families Rosel Bailey, aged 58, who was killed by the upsetting of of New England origin had settled in the township, and his wagon October 24th 1840; Lucinda his wife, who died December 3d 1822, aged 37 years, and Aseneth, wife of Robert Bailey, who died December roth 1822, aged 63 years. were instrumental in organizing the township from Del- mar. They began instituting schools wherever there were half a dozen families in a locality. At first rude log houses were erected, which were used ten or fifteen years, In the new graveyard on the hill at Dartt Settlement are buried Justus M. Dartt, who died March 25th 1877, aged 73 years; Hiram Warner, who died April 16th 1878, aged 78 years; Aurena Atherton, aged 81 years, and Maria S. Marvin, daughter of Rev. George Spratt. and as the township developed framed buildings gradually took their places. The Elliotts and Gilletts of Cherry Flats, and the Dartts in Dartt Settlement, were among the earliest and most influential friends of the common schools. Justus Dartt, it will be recollected, was one of the trustees of the Wellsboro Academy appointed in 1817, and he favored the common or district schools as feeders to the academy. In the light of our present advantages for obtaining an education it is remarkable how, under such adverse circumstances and with so few facilities at hand, the boys and girls of fifty years ago acquired in the rude school room, destitute of maps, charts, or any of the modern conveniences, such a solid and substantial edu- cation, frequently only attending school in the winter months and laboring in the field and forest in the sum- mer. Their books were few, but well studied and understood; and with bodies made healthy by habits of industry, and with clear heads, they accomplished more in a term than most of our modern scholars in years.
Among the descendants of Colonel Justus Dartt is his son Cyrus Dartt, who was born in Castleton, Vt., Octo- ber 25th 1800. He came into Tioga county with his parents, and endured all the hardships of pioneer life. In 1820 he married Miss Lydia Kelley. Their children were Horace, Solon S., Hiram W., Charles M., Lydia Ann (wife of Adam Klock), Irene (wife of Robert Roy), Phidelia |wife of John Wortendyke), and Amelia wife of W. L. Richards, State mining inspector . Mr. Dartt was again married in 1837, to Matilda Sweet. Their children were: Albert, J. P., Elnora wife of L. P. Pot- ter) and Hannah (wife of Frank Holden,. Mr. Dartt is one of the few remaining who saw Charleston town- ship a wilderness, without roads, without schools, without churches, without any of the conveniences of life; and now behold it as one of the finest agricultural districts in the county, with roads, schools, churches, and all the ap- pliances of wealth and prosperity. A saw-mill was early built by Colonel Dartt, which enabled him and his neigh- bors to erect suitable framed buildings and clear up the country. Dartt Settlement is on the western line of the township of Charleston, about four miles from the court- house at Wellsboro.
ELECTIONS.
The first election that is recorded in the prothonotary's office at Wellsboro for the township of Charleston was held at the house of Justus Dartt, March 19th 1824, as
There are now in Charleston 18 school-houses, em- ploying 19 teachers, who give instruction to 271 male and 307 female scholars, making a total of 578. The annual expenditure for teachers' wages is about $2,000, and for repairs and incidentals about $1,ooo. A lively interest is taken in educational matters by all classes of citizens, and students from Charleston will be found in the high school at Wellsboro, the State normal school at Mansfield, and various prominent schools throughout the country. The citizens of Charleston as a class are " forehanded " and prosperous, and they take pride in giving their sons and daughters superior advantages for obtaining a thorough education.
The present township officers are: Constable. S. D. township one of the most prosperous agricultural sections Evans; supervisors, Charles T. Austin, Jonathan V. of the county. On the old farm were growing this year Morgan; assessor, Nathan Austin; treasurer, Elbert M. splendid crops of tobacco, corn, wheat and oats, and all Johnson; clerk, Eugene Beauge; assistant assessors, Wil- orchard products in abundance.

HISTORY OF TIOGA COUNTY.
CHURCHES.
There are seven church edifices in Charleston town- ship, viz .: a Methodist church at Whitneyville, a Baptist church at Cherry Flats, a Congregational church at the Welsh Settlement, a Baptist church at Dartt Settlement, a " Christian " church, and Methodist churches at Catlin Hollow and Round Top. Many of the citizens of western Charleston attend church at Wellsboro, and some in the eastern portion at Mansfield, Canoe Camp and Coving. ton. The people of the township are therefore well pro- vided with churches.
CHARLESTON'S RECORD IN THE REBELLION.
All nationalities and both Democrats and Republicans of the township of Charleston responded to the call of their country in the war of the Rebellion. Besides those who enlisted in companies formed here many went into the service from other places. Charleston and Delmar were contiguous, and township lines were ignored in the formation of companies, and we therefore append the following lists of volunteers from these townships:
