Are any of you researching any of these Morgan township families? In a letter from Miriam George Van Mason to her sister Alice George Davis, written August 9, 1978: "I, too, wondered why our road could not be named George. There are questions that I should have asked. Could it be that our road was built before Colerain Pike? If that was the case it may have been a reason why travelers stayed over night with Catherine Thompson George on their way from Cincinnati to Brookville. With the Morgan Township map showing the Dwyer farm not too far from Scipio our road would have led to that area. I have wondered if the original George land did not include that Handley land up the hill back of Clyde Russell's place. Gillie (Handley)'s farm was not very large, and as you recall, it was located between the George and DeArmond acres. It extended to the East-west road leading west to the Macedonia Church as did that of Grandpa (George)'s land. Not only did Archie H but also his sister Barbara Yauger have their homes up that George hill, but a bit west of their land was a plot owned by Bill Nugent. His wife was a sister of Grandma Handley. I believe that if any <b>George</b> land was sold to the Handleys it must have been before the time of EJG (Enoch Jackson George) since he wanted to hold on to his acres. Did you ever walk up that George hill? I struggled up once to take a harvest message to Archie H. Barbara and her husband came each Sunday afternoon to visit Grandma Handley. Did you happen to know Orville Handley? The year before we returned to Okeana School from No. 4, he started to school there. He was such an attractive youngster that we older ones took a great interest in him. As you recall our great, great grandmother Ann Handley married Reuben George. Remembering that, I thought it was good for Aunt Eva (George Clawson) and Sadie (Handley -?-) to be together in later years. Even though Aunt Eva criticized her at times, she felt very sad when Sadie was too sick to return to her. Florence Sizelove married Thomas Jeanes - so she was the aunt of Florence Leibrook. As near as I can figure from the map it looks as if the Jeanes land was a bit south of the Macedonia church."
