   PETER LINE, farmer, P. 0. Findlay, was born October 11, 1832, in Eagle
Township, this county. Coonrad Line, the father of our subject, a native of
Pennsylvania, was united in marriage, in Fairfield County, Ohio, with Miss
Catharine Case, a native of Maryland. Peter Line, the subject of this sketch,
acquired his education partly in the primitive schools of the pioneer days, but
mostly by private study by the light of the old-fashioned chip-fire. When
twenty-one years of age he went to Missouri, where he remained seven years. He
married, October 7, 1860, Miss Mary B. Jewett, and returned to Eagle Township,
this county, in 1861, settling on the farm which he had purchased and where they
now reside, consisting of 170 acres of well improved land. On this place Mr.
Line has a tile factory, the first ever established in this county, which he has
operated for fourteen years. He manufactures exclusively for the home market. To
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Line have been born ten children: Kate E., Fannie S., Amanda
Jane, Coonrad D., Jacob, Edson, Henry D. (deceased), Mary E., Bessie and Edith.
Mr. Line is a life-long Democrat. He has served his township in various official
capacities, including clerk and trustee. He and his worthy wife are consistent
members of the Predestinarian Baptist Church. Mr. Line is a man of strict
integrity, respected by the entire community.
