HISTORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL." CHARLES BLANCHARD, EDITOR. CHICAGO: F. A. BATTEY & CO. PUBLISHERS. 1884. F. A. BATTEY. F. W. TEPPLE MORGAN COUNTY, INDIANA MONROE TOWNSHIP PAGE 279 JOEL C. MCCLELLAN is a native of Kentucky, was born June 16, 1822, and is the second of the ten children of William and Elizabeth (Cline) McClellan, respectively of Irish and German extraction, who emigrated to this county in 1836, and located in Mooresville, where Mr. McClellan followed his trade-that of tanner-for considerable time. He then moved to Monrovia, and soon after purchased land and cleared a farm, on which he resided until his death in 1844, a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, as is Mrs. McClellan, who is yet living at Lake Valley. Joel C. was reared in that town, and from the common schools obtained a good education. When he was fourteen years old, he went as an apprentice to carpentering, at which he served three years, and became a journeyman. November 7, 1844, he married Eliza N. Johnson. No children have followed this union. Mr. McClellan is an upright man and a worthy citizen. He is a member of the Masonic order, a Republican in politics, and, with his wife, a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, of which he has been many years a class leader, and assisted in organizing the first Sabbath School at Monrovia in 1881. ------------------------------ From: "Kellie Weisenbeck" Date: Sun, 25 Jan 1998 21:42:03 -0600 Subject: KY-F: BIBLE: Brame-Hester, Christian Co Brame-Hester Bible New York - Published by Evert Duyckinck, John Tiebont, B.
