ADAM WEAVER Adam Weaver came to Lancaster from Lancaster, Pa., in the year 1806. His first employment was clerk in Rudolph Pitcher's store. In the year 1810 he was elected justice of the peace for Hocking Township. He was a popular justice and held the office eighteen years. In 1812 he was a lieutenant in Captain Sumner's company of artillery. This company reported at Franklinton to the Governor, but owing to the fact that Weaver was sheriff of the county the Governor excused him, and Sosthenes McCabe was elected in his place. Weaver was elected county treasurer in the year 1826 and served four years. Adam Weaver was the father of the late John C. Weaver, *wid of George Weaver, once editor of the Lancaster Gazette, and of Mrs. Philip Bope. He was an active, vigorous man and one of Thomas Ewing's posse to arrest counterfeiters in 1818. He died in the year 1841. GENERAL SANDERSON'S RECOLLECTIONS The following are the names of the early settlers of Lancaster, and in what part of the town they settled, as far as recollected by the writer of this article, who deems it not out of place to state that he has been a resident of Lancaster and its immediate vicinity ever since the town was located, and is now in the seventyeighth year of his age. Samuel Coates, Sr., and Samuel Coates, Jr., erected the first cabin in the new town in 1800. It stood on the alley on a lot fronting on Front street, between Main and Chestnut. The Coateses -- father and son -- were from the City of Leeds, in England, where they had been engaged in business, but, failing, came to the United States. In 1799 a mail route was established along Zane's trace, and the elder Coates was appointed postmaster at the crossings of the Hockhocking, so called and generally known by the...

Download or read book Carrying Coal to Columbus written by David Meyers and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as 1755, explorers found coal deposits in Ohio's Hocking Valley. The industry that followed created towns and canals and established a new way of life. The first shipment of coal rolled into Columbus in 1830 and has continued ever since. In 1890, the United Mine Workers of America was founded in Columbus. Lorenzo D. Poston became the first of the Hocking Valley coal barons, and by the start of the twentieth century, at least fifty thousand coal miners and their families lived and worked in Athens, Hocking and Perry Counties. Authors David Meyers, Elise Meyers Walker and Nyla Vollmer detail the hard work and struggles as they unfolded in Ohio's capital and the Little Cities of Black Diamonds.
Download or read book States at War Volume 5 written by Richard F. Miller and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many Civil War reference books exist, there is no single compendium that contains important details about the combatant states (and territories) that Civil War researchers can readily access for their work. People looking for information about the organizations, activities, economies, demographics, and prominent personalities of Civil War States and state governments must assemble data from a variety of sources, with many key sources remaining unavailable online. This crucial reference book, the fifth in the States at War series, provides vital information on the organization, activities, economies, demographics, and prominent personalities of Ohio during the Civil War. Its principal sources include the Official Records, state adjutant-general reports, legislative journals, state and federal legislation, federal and state executive speeches and proclamations, and the general and special orders issued by the military authorities of both governments, North and South. Designed and organized for easy use by professional historians and amateurs, this book can be read in two ways: by individual state, with each chapter offering a stand-alone history of an individual stateÕs war years; or across states, comparing reactions to the same event or solutions to the same problems.

Download or read book Sherman written by John F. Marszalek and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2007-11-08 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sherman: A Soldier’s Passion for Order is the premier biography of William Tecumseh Sherman, the Civil War commander known for his “destructive war” policy against Confederates and as a consummate soldier. This updated edition of John F. Marszalek’s award-winning book presents the general as a complicated man who, fearing anarchy, searched for the order that he hoped would make his life a success. Sherman was profoundly influenced by the death of his father and his subsequent relationship with the powerful Whig politician Thomas Ewing and his family. Although the Ewings treated Sherman as one of their own, the young Sherman was determined to make it on his own. He graduated from West Point and moved on to service at military posts throughout the South. This volume traces Sherman’s involvement in the Mexican War in the late 1840s, his years battling prospectors and deserting soldiers in gold-rush California, and his 1850 marriage to his foster sister, Ellen. Later he moved to Louisiana, and, after the state seceded, Sherman returned to the North to fight for the Union. Sherman covers the general’s early Civil War assignments in Kentucky and Missouri and his battles against former Southern friends there, the battle at Shiloh, and his rise to become second only to Grant among the Union leadership. Sherman’s famed use of destructive war, controversial then and now, is examined in detail. The destruction of property, he believed, would convince the Confederates that surrender was their best option, and Sherman’s successful strategy became the stuff of legend. This definitive biography, which includes forty-six illustrations, effectively refutes misconceptions surrounding the controversial Union general and presents Sherman the man, not the myth.
