    3. Most of these Jerseymen lived in eastern Batavia Twnsp-w Williamsburg twnsp,Clermont Co,but the Shumard's were north of Owensville. Somebody's has Mason-Winner, from the area of Greenbrier cemetary, or from adjoining the westrn-nw edge of modern East Fork State Park. Others lived in the park, north of Lake Harsha,and any houses that survivied were torn down in the early 1970's when the lake was built.
