1601 THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Thursday, April 7, 1927,Volume LI, Number 22, Page 1, Columns 3 & 4, “DEATH’S HARVEST—MUTERSPAUGH.” [Transcribed May 2, 2004 from microfilm of the original newspaper on file in the Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County Public Library.]

On Thursday morning, March 31, 1927, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Earl SIMPSON, in Bloomfield, Andrew MUTERSPAUGH answered the call into eternity. He had spent all his life in this community, and since the death of his beloved wife, last October, for whom he had grieved so much, he had lived part of the time with Mr. and Mrs. SIMPSON.

Mr. MUTERSPAUGH, the second son of Samuel and Elizabeth {MILLER} MUTERSPAUGH, was born October 20, 1856 and departed this life at the age of seventy years, five months and eleven days.

He was united in marriage to Miss Josephine SIMPSON, Oct. 7, 1886. And since her death his life was lonely and he seemed to have lost interest in his surroundings, and expressed a desire for his summons to come.

He is survived by three sisters, Mrs. Sarah LIVINGSTON, Worthington; Mrs. Susan C. AXE, Switz City; and Mrs. Mary J. SHARP of Kansas; two brothers, Grant and William MUTERSPAUGH, two brothers and one sister having preceded him in death.

Mr. MUTERSPAUGH was converted and made his confession of Christ as his Savior, during the meeting held by Rev. Lewis, about four years ago. He had never united with any church, but a short time before his death remarked to a friend that it was his intention to unite with the church. But now he has gone to dwell in that city where the temple is the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb. And the city has no need of the sun, nor the moon to lighten it; for the glory of God lightens it, and the Lamb is its light. And into it the kings of the earth will bring their glory; and its gates will not be shut by day, for there is no night there.

The funeral and interment occurred last Saturday afternoon. Interment in Grand View cemetery.

1610 THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, VOL. XLI., NO.11, Page 5, Column 4, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Thursday, February 1, 1917, "Death Claims Pioneer Citizens.?MILLER."

No man nor citizen will be more greatly missed in the Union Bethel neighborhood than David Newton MILLER who died suddenly of apoplexy after he had partaken of a hearty dinner on Monday January 25. He was relied upon as safe counsel by the neighbors as well as his immediate family and his relatives. He was the sole custodian of the church and cemetery at Union Bethel and if he did not keep a map of burial ground, it is doubtful whether anyone else is familiar with the location of the various lots. He was a good man, a kind neighbor and willing helper in all neighborhood affairs. The community has truly lost a valuable citizen.

The funeral was conducted on Wednesday, January 17 by Elder J. A. SPENCER, of Sandborn. The interment was in the church yard cemetery.

A biographical sketch of the deceased is herewith compiled from a recent history of Greene county:

The father of the deceased was John MILLER, who was born in Lebanon county, Pennsylvania, and was one member of the board of commissioners that built the beautiful Greene County court house, and was instrumental in erecting many substantial bridges across White river and the principal creeks of this county thirty years ago. Before coming to Greene county, he resided in Wayne county, Ohio and married Sarah R. MILLER. She was a daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Samuel MILLER, pioneers in the Church of God in Highland township.

John MILER, the father of the deceased, D. N. MILLER, stayed at home and helped clear the farm and married soon after they settled in Greene county, buying land in Richland township which he cleared, later trading this farm for four hundred and forty-five acres in the same community. By hard work he made the farm pay well and was able to buy property in Bloomfield. He served as commissioner of Greene county, Indiana, and was active as a Republican. He was an elder and trustee in the Church of God. He and his wife raised nine children, having thirteen in all, namely: David N., the subject of this sketch; William P., a farmer deceased; Hannah E. who married Henry SWITZ, is now dead; Tabitha, deceased, who married Jacob GRAY; Mary Bell, who married John B. LEAVITT, of Lyons; Susan who married Grant EDWARDS, of Richland township; Daisy, deceased, who was wife of William RITTER; Ethel, who married Allen WORKMAN, of Richland township; Oliver, who is a manufacturer in Bloomfield, Indiana.

David N. MILLER was born November 23, 1854, in Richland township. He went to the home schools and lived at home until he married Florence R. MADDOX, February 28, 1878. She is a native of Monroe county, Indiana and the daughter of Thomas and Louisa G,. MADDOX, who came to Greene county in 1870 and located in Richland township, where he died. His widow survives. The subject and wife have five children, namely: Nellie V., who married Ivan STALCUP. She died June 27, 1902. They had three children, George Dewey, Nona and Grace; Charles V. is a farmer in Fairplay township; Edna V. married March 4, 1900, William HUFFMAN. They have two children, Mary and Ilene. Frank is single and lives with the subject of this sketch. Rex is also at home. After marrying Mr. Miller bought a farm in Richland township, later buying where he now lives. It is his grandfather Miller's place and comprises one hundred and eighty-three acres, one hundred and twenty-five of which are in cultivation. He raises all kinds of grains and much stock. He was proprietor of a store at Elnora, Indiana, for one year. He is an active Republican in politics. He is an elder and trustee in the church of God and his friends are many throughout the county where he lives.

1611 THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, VOL. XLIV., NO. 6, Page 1, Column 2, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Thursday, December 25, 1919, "AGED AND RESPECTED WOMAN PASSES AWAY."

Mariah, the second child of John and Leora MILLER, was born March 13, 1829, in Lebanon county, Penn. She moved with her parents when quite young to Wayne county, Ohio, and there grew to womanhood and was married to Noah E. FLORY in August, 1847. To this union were born thirteen children, six having preceded the mother to the spirit world. She came with her family to Greene county, Indiana, in 1853. She spent most of her life near Tulip, in this county. The husband and father died September 7, 1872. She lived at the old home until about four years ago, and since then she has made her home with her children. She was at the home of her son, Rev. Henry FLORY, from which she could not recover. She was removed to the home of her daughter, Mrs. Elza WATSON, where every attention and care was bestowed upon her by her children and friends, but she passed peacefully to rest, December 22, 1919, age ninety years, nine months and nine days.

At about the age of eighteen she was converted and united with the Church of God. She was a faithful active member, regular in attending as long as her health permitted. When life seemed almost gone she rallied, praising God, and calling her children around her gave them good counsel, and even tried to sing. All her life long, she was a woman of remarkable strength, both physical and mental. She retained her mental faculties till the last.

She leaves to mourn their loss seven children?three daughters, Katherine QUAKENBUSH, of Vermillion , Kas.; Elizabeth STALCUP and Susie WATSON, of Bloomfield; and four sons, Henry, the minister, and Jacob, Samuel and Thomas, all of Bloomfield. All these children were with her in her last illness except Mrs. QUACKENBUSH, who was unable to attend. She had fifty grandchildren, 101 great-grandchildren and seven great-great-grandchildren?158 in all.

1612 THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, VOL. XLIX., NO. 52, Page 1, Column 3, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Thursday, November 5, 1925, "LONG TIME FARMER DIED LAST FRIDAY."

Following an illness of three days, Luther P. DOYLE, a long time farmer resident of Camp Ground, north of Bloomfield, died of neuralgia of his heart last Friday afternoon. The deceased was a high class citizen, and industrious farmer, a good neighbor, and his passing has taken from the community one of its best citizens.

He was born at Newcomerstown, Ohio, on February 12, 1850, and died on October 30, 1925, aged seventy-five years, eight months and eighteen days.

He came to Indiana with his parents, Eli and Sarah DOYLE, when a small boy, locating near Bloomfield, where he has resided since that time. When he grew to manhood he was employed as a hired hand to do farm work until his marriage in 1870 to Miss Nancy CHAMBERS, who died on June 22, of the same year. Later he was married to Mrs. Mary J. HICKS, the widow of William HICKS. Mrs. HICKS had three daughters, Winnie, Now Mrs. Evan A. BONHAM, of Cherry, Ariz; Amanda, deceased, who was Mrs. Elliott Maddox, and Mrs. Clara BAUER, of Bloomington, Ind. To these children Mr. DOYLE was a true stepfather, helping to rear them from early childhood with those of his own by this union, namely Ida M. LEAVITT, of Indianapolis, and Harry E. DOYLE, of Bloomfield. A daughter, Mary died in infancy. In February, 1888, death again invaded the home, taking the companion and mother.

On November 14, 1888, Mr. DOYLE was married to Mrs. Anna (HICKS) KEYS, the widow of Sam KEYS. Her three children, John, Ethel (now Mrs. Newt JEAN of Newberry), and Willie, who died in early manhood, were also fostered as father by Mr. DOYLE. To his union there were no children, but their thirty-seven years of wedded life were happy ones. The wife survives him.

Mr. DOYLE had been a member of the Presbyterian church since 1867, joining at Camp Ground, and serving as elder at that point; then later in Bloomfield, filling that capacity until his death. His church life was one of true consecration and service, attending the services whenever opportunity offered. In his younger days he was often leader in the singing of the church hymns and was a regular attendant at Sunday school. His home was a christian home; fostered and nurtured by the daily observance of family worship.

Mr. DOYLE had a keen and alert mind, and was greatly interested in all important topics of the day. His knowledge thus gained made him a fine conversationalist and entertainer. He was true to his convictions, straight forward and unafraid in maintaining the principles he advocated. He was a good financier, through and painstaking in small details. He was kind and obliging to this neighbors and a friend to all.

The funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church at 1:30 o'clock last Sunday afternoon. Interment in Grand View cemetery.

Besides the family and friends in this locality the funeral was attended by John W. MURRAY and the Misses Margaret, Mary and Josephine LEAVITT, of Indianapolis.

We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for kindness and sympathy shown us in our recent bereavement.

1613 THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, VOLUME XXV., NO.52, Page 8, Columns 1,2 & 3, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Friday, November 21, 1901, "JOHN MILLER DEAD. Another Pioneer and Oldest Citizen of Greene County Has Passed to His Reward."
John MILLER, the oldest citizen of Greene county, died at 9:30 o'clock Friday morning, Nov. 15, at the advanced age of ninety-four years, five months and seven days. After almost a century in this world his passing to the next was as calm and peaceful and natural as the sleeping of a little child.

He was born of German parentage in Lebanon county, Pennsylvania, June 8, 1807. Consequently, he lived under the administration of every president of the United States except Washington and the elder Adams, and was a boy of nine when Indiana was admitted as a state into the union. In June, 1827, he was married to Elnora IMBODEN. In April , 1831, he removed with his family to Wayne county, Ohio, where he lived for nineteen years, pursuing his trade of blacksmith and farming in a limited way, when he again went in search of a new home, where he could buy land at a lower price, and settled this time, in April, 1850, in Greene county, Indiana, where he continued to reside until his death.

Descended from that sturdy German stock which has played so prominent a part in the pioneer history of this county, and is known everywhere for its thriftiness, he had accumulated considerable property and was looked upon as a man of wealth by those in this community, among whom he had come to make his home. He bought 240 acres of land in the old Bethel settlement north of Bloomfield, including what is know as the Bland farm, from the father of Dr. T. A. BLAND, paying therefor $2,000. Here he lived until a few years ago, when he moved to Bloomfield.

Oct. 6, 1865, his wife died, and two years later, Oct. 8, 1867, he again married, this time to Mrs. Elizabeth HUBBEL, who, though very old and feeble, survives her husband. To the first union were born nine children?enry, Maria, John, Catharine, Elizabeth, Leah, Caroline, David and Polly?hree sons and six daughters, all of whom except John and Caroline are still living and residents of Greene county.

Henry, the oldest son, is past seventy-four and lives at Newark. Maria became the wife of Noah FLORY and lives near Tulip. Catharine married John S. HEATH and lives in Highland township. John, after a busy life, died a few years ago, having served his county in the capacity of commissioner. Leah married Ezekiel ALEXANDER and lives at Cincinnati, while David, and Elizabeth, widow of Samuel MUTERSPAUGH, and Polly, wife of Simon LEHMAN, live in or near Bloomfield. Caroline was married to Louis HERRINGTON, but she and her husband both are dead.

His family is the largest in the county, numbering 220 direct descendants, and comprises seven children, forty-five grandchildren, 139 great-grandchildren and twenty-nine great-great-grandchildren.

Two brothers and one sister younger that he survive him and are still living back in Pennsylvania.

The funeral exercises were held Sunday at 10:30 a.m. at Bethel, in charge of Rev. E. M. LOVE, of Worthington. A large crowd, including the relatives, neighbors and friends, was in attendance to pay their last tribute of respect to the memory of this venerable pioneer. In an early day Mr. MILLER united with the church of God, and throughout his life he was true to the dictates of his conscience and in all things obeyed the will of his Master as God gave him light to understand that will.

In his prime Mr. MILLER was a giant, physically speaking, standing erect at six feet and three inches and weighing 250 pounds, and his strength was proportionate to his weight. Time was when the small boy stood aside and gazed with wonder as he strode along the street. Reduced as he was by old age and by his final illness, yet in death he weighed barely less than 200 pounds. In an earlier day, before age had left its mark, he was a man of tremendous energy and his capacity for hard work and his power of endurance were remarkable.

Though his frame was bent under its weight of years, yet Uncle Johnny, as he was familiarly called by everyone, can hardly be said to have passed through that state of decrepitude which so often marks the declining years, for until a few months ago, he led a very active life, performing the light work about his home and driving frequently to town on matters of business, but rarely to pass an hour in idleness.

He was strictly honorable in all his dealings, gave no thought to intermeddling with the affairs of others and dwelt at peace with all men?uch was his life. Not by an attack of consuming fever nor by some wasting disease, but as nature intends that all men should die by the wearing out of all the bodily parts by age?uch was his death. And such was the life, the deeds, the passing away of this venerable pioneer.

Oscar Adelbert Hartley
OSCAR ADELBERT HARTLEY. The great American problem is and always has been how to get along and how to get ahead. The solution of that question is more important to the individual than the broader issues which divide people into political partes and which confront the nation as a whole. The individual has very little leisure or inclination for politics or for anything else until he knows how to meet the economic demands that are represented by bread and butter, home and shelter.

Nearly every successful man in Western Kansas has had his own peculiar experiences in solving these problems. Not the least interesting among them is the experience of Oscar Adelbert Hartley, now a successful merchant at Brownell in Ness County.

Mr. Hartley came to Kansas in 1891. He came from the East and was induced to make the trip through a cousin who already lived in Ness County. He arrived at Brownell by railroad, and was possessed of about $50 when he got off the train. That money he invested in seed wheat, put in a crop, and the following year reaped a bountiful harvest. Though wheat then sold for only a fraction of the price it now commands, he made a profit out of the venture. In 1894 Mr. Hartley entered a homestead in Bazine Township.

The first thing he did in the way of improvements was to build a house. He secured the material from an old chicken house at Brownell. The dimensions were 8 by 12. He tore down the house at Brownell, moved it out to his claim, and set it up, and when ready for occupancy he brought his young wife there. It was a very small room, not much larger than an average bed room. A storm came up, rose to the fury of a Kansas blizzard, and as his horses were without protection he brought them into the narrow quarters occupied by himself and the family. He and his wife went to bed in order to make more room for the stock. The horses repaid the kindness by eating the hay from the bed-tick. As might be imagined, the house was only a box, there were cracks between the planks on every side, and there was no necessity for providing the elaborate means of ventilation which are found in modern homes.

In the fall of that year Mr. Hartley bought $5 worth of coal as his winter fuel supply. When the next spring arrived the coal pile was undiminished. He had also gathered cow chips and made a pile of them as high as his house, and these proved adequate as fuel, so that no call was made upon the coal.

Those various experiences he can now look back upon not without the pleasure of recollection. At the same time his venture in developing a claim proved somewhat profitable. He acquired a few cattle, and that was the most profitable branch of his enterprise. For eight years he and his family lived on the claim, and he then exchanged his farm for land near Brownell. He also established his home in the town, and besides looking after his farming interests he earned enough for the support of the household by employment as a section hand at daily wages of $1.25. He worked ten months on the section, and at the end of that time an opportunity came to purchase an interest in a store, and he is now a member of the prosperous firm of Coughenour & Hartley.

Mr. Hartley was born February 21, 1868, near Logansport in Cass County, Indiana. Most of his youth was spent in Jackson County, West Virginia. He came to Kansas from Liverpool, West Virginia. Jackson County borders the Ohio River, and as a boy he lived on both sides of that river and in the states of Ohio and West Virginia. His education came from attending local schools a few months each year, and he had to walk three or four miles between home and schoolhouse. He made his home with his mother until he came west, but in the meantime was paying his own way by work, and as a boy he was not so particular as to the kind of employment as many young men are in the present time. He was employed with a bridge gang on the R., S. & G. Railway of West Virginia, also worked at monthly wages on the farm, and did any other employment which offered itself.

His father, Peter J. Hartley, was born in West Virginia, and during the Civil war he enlisted in the Eighteenth Ohio Infantry and served three years and six months, being wounded in the battle of Chattanooga. Aside from his military experience he spent his active career as a farmer. He died in 1883, at the age of fifty-five. He married Sarah Harper, whose father, Temple Harper, was a West Virginia farmer. She is still living at the age of seventy-five and makes her home at Akron, Ohio. Peter Harley was a republican and he and his wife Methodists. Of their seven children only two are now living. The four who grew up were: Winfield S., who died in West Virginia leaving children; Oscar Adelbert; Thornton, who died in West Virginia unmarried; and Eva Belle, now Mrs. M. S. J. Walter, of Akron, Ohio.

About two years after coming to Ness County, on September 23, 1893, Mr. Hartley married Miss Clara E. Vastine. She was born in Henry County, Missouri, a daughter of William B. and Emeretta (Kinnie) Vastine. Her father was a Pennsylvanian, and on coming west he spent some time in Illinois and Missouri and finally located in Kansas. He and his wife had the following children: W. A. Vastine, who died in Ness County leaving children; Mrs. Hartley; Daisy, wife of William Parks, of Brownell; and Captain Lewis, who lives in Pendennis, Kansas.

Mr. and Mrs. Hartley have two children: Daisy E., a student of music in Ottawa University, and Ward D., also attending school in Ottawa.

Translation

April 22, 1707


By virtue of a warrant granted to Geffry (Jeffrey) Horney of Talbot County for one hundred acres of land dated September twenty sixth seventeen hundred and six, I Solomon Wright Deputy surveyor for Kent County under Edward Diggs surveyor General of the Eastern Shore, do hereby certify that I have laid out for the said Geffry Horney a tract of land called Dixon's Gift lying on the south side of Chester River in the said County. Beginning at a bound poplar tree standing on the West side of the Unicorn branch in a fork of the said branch next above Willmors fork standing by the main branch side running then is up by and with the said branch south by east three hundred and twenty perches then west by south fifty perches then north by west through hundred and twenty perches then to the poplar tree containing and laid out for one hundred acres of the land more or less to be held of the manor of Baltimore __ me Solomon Wright Deputy Surveyor A true certificate examined __ __ __ examiner November the 7th 1709 Then issued Patent for the above land to the above named Horney pursuant to the above certificate for Rent 4 sterling.




Dee's note: Much of the wording in the document was abbreviated, for instance, the word per means perches, the word sur means surveyor. Depy is an abbreviation for deputy. Grall was an abbreviation for General. Lord Calvert had General surveyors who would more or less stay at the office and send out deputy surveyors to do the surveying. Thus, Solomon Wright was the deputy surveyor who surveyed the property. The word poplar referred to a poplar tree. "A bound" poplar was a marked tree used for the boundary line in the survey. The mannor of Baltimore referred to a manor of land (an estate) held by Lord Baltimore which was subdivided and sold or rented out for land owners or tenants to work the land and to make rent to the Calverts and the Crown. I am not sure about the "Rent 4 ster" at the end of the document. I thought perhaps it could have meant rent, 4 sterling in payment. There were still a few things that I couldn't figure out, but this is most of it. When I looked up the definition of perch, there were two definitions.
1. A measure of length, equal to 5 1/2 yards; a rod.
2. A measure of area, equal to 30 1/4 square yards.
