Mr. Mahan was born near Danville, Ky., Nov. 10, 1829, and moved with
his father to New Winchester, Hendricks county, in 1833, then to
North Salem in 1861, then to the farm just north of Precinct twelve
years ago. He was married in 1850 to Cordelia Cummings, near
Winchester. His wife died some time ago. To this union were born nine
children, eight of whom are living, Frank, near North Salem; Mrs.
Amanda Weddle, Centerville, Wayne county, Luther, North Salem; Mrs.
Amy Page, near North Salem; Wallace, Charles, William and Ona, at
