HOSS. LL.D. - BROWN COUNTY Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=US-ASCII AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE STATE OF INDIANA Richard S. Peale & Co., Publishers, 1875 Page 660 GEORGE W. HOSS, LL.D. He was born in Brown county, Ohio, in 1824, and moved with his parents to Marion county, Indiana, in 1836. He worked on a farm until 1845, when he entered Asbury University. Having to earn means for his own support, he left college two terms to teach for that purpose. He also taught two hours a day for three years in the Female Seminary in Greencastle. He graduated in 1850, and was soon after chosen principal of a flourishing academy at Muncie, Indiana. He remained at this point two years, when he was elected teacher of mathematics in the Indiana Female College, in Indianapolis. In 1853, he was chosen first literary teacher in the State institute for the education of the blind in Indianapolis. In 1855, he was elected president of the Indiana Female College, and in 1856, he was elected professor of mathematics in the Northwestern Christian University, at Indianapolis. In 1864, he was elected State superintendent of public instruction, and re-elected to the same position in 1866. Before his second term expired, he was elected to the chair of English literature and theory and practice of teaching in the Indiana State University. He held this position until June, 1871, when he resigned to accept the presidency of the State Normal School of Kansas. In 1873, he was elected to the chair of English literature and elocution in the Indiana State University, and on account of the decline of his wife's health in Kansas, he accepted the position, and still holds it. In 1853, he received the degree of A.M. in course from his Alma Mater, and in 1872, the degree of LL.D. from the Indiana State University. He is regarded as a sound, practical, enthusiastic worker in the educational field. ______________________________ ------------------------------ X-Message: #4 Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1999 10:19:20, -0500 From: AUPQ38A@prodigy.com (MRS GINA M REASONER) To: OH-FOOTSTEPS-L@rootsweb.com Message-Id: <199909291419.KAA04072@mime3.prodigy.com> Subject: JUDGE THOMAS B. LONG - RICHLAND COUNTY Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=US-ASCII AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF THE STATE OF INDIANA Richard S. Peale & Co., Publishers, 1875 Page 672 JUDGE THOMAS B. LONG Judge Thomas B. Long was born near the city of Mansfield, in Richland county, Ohio, on the twenty-fifth day of October, 1836. His father's family subsequently lived in Mansfield, Bucyrus, and Springfield, in that State, and in 1846 removed to the city of Terre Haute, where they have since continuously resided. Here the subject of this sketch received an academical education, embracing the studies usually pursued in the colleges of the land. In 1854, he entered the law office of Hon. R.W. Thompson, as a student, where he remained for several years, during which he attended lectures in the law department of the Cincinnati college, and graduated in the spring of 1856. In the fall of this year he was elected district attorney for the court of common pleas, and about the same time was engaged as editor of one of the daily papers of the city, which position he filled for about two years, when he withdrew for the purpose of devoting his entire attention to the practice of his profession. In 1860, he was placed upon the presidential ticket of the Union party as a candidate for elector, in which capacity he canvassed his district wherever his services were called for; but, seeing the hopelessness of the success of his party, he urged all wavering voters to support Stephen A. Douglas for president. From this time he applied himself diligently to his professional pursuits and literary studies until the fall of 1870, when he was elected by the democratic party as judge of the criminal circuit court, which position he filled so acceptably that, in 1874 -although political feeling ran high -he received the nomination of both parties, and was re-elected without opposition. Judge Long is a fluent speaker and a graceful writer, and has acquired some fame as a poet, by various fugitive pieces, and a number of ballads and songs, which have been set to music and published in the principal cities of the country. ______________________________ ------------------------------ X-Message: #5 Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1999 16:50:12 -0400 From: Maggie Stewart-Zimmerman To: OH-FOOTSTEPS-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <199909291652_MC2-86E1-D454@compuserve.com> Subject: GRIMM, 1963 & 1960, Columbiana County Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline From: "Brenda, Ellis, and Normandy Boxers" GRIMM, Anna Certificate #: 08809 Volume#: 17174 Sex: Female Race: White County of Death: Columbiana City of Death East Liverpool OH County of Residence: Jefferson Date of death: Feb 16 1963 Age of death:82 years Marital Status: Widowed GRIMM, William J Certificate #: 69342 Volume #: 16287 Sex: Male Race: White County of death: Columbiana City of Death: East Liverpool Date of Death: Oct 10 1960 Age: 90 Marital Status: Married Brenda Daniels ==== Maggie_Ohio Mailing List ==== ______________________________ ------------------------------ X-Message: #6 Date: Wed, 29 Sep 1999 16:09:53 -0500 From: "Ken Ruane" To: OH-FOOTSTEPS-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <001201bf0abf$09ab0f20$6a72c0d0@Friday> Subject: WILL: ZACHARIAH BONHAM, MUSKINGUM CO 1837 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Will of Zachariah Bonham, deceased.
