Surnames: EMMITT, MARTIN, CUMMINS, WALLACE, MCGANNIS Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2YB.2ACI/2094 Message Board Post: James K. Emmitt, the proprietor of Emmitt's Hat and Furnishing Emporium, Chillicothe, Ohio, was born here April 22, 1862. His paternal great-grandfather, James Emmitt, emigrated from the North of Ireland to America, and located in Armstrong county, Pennsylvania, whence he removed to Pike county, Ohio, in 1812, and settled on a tract of land two miles north of Waverly. He died soon after. One of his sons, James Emmitt, married Louisa Martin, who was born near Waverly, a daughter of Pennsylvania-German parents. He was a man of more than ordinary ability and intelligence. Starting as a poor boy, he worked his way up in life until he became one of the wealthiest men of his State and a leader of his day, and was honored with a seat in Congress. He traveled all over Europe. He had six sons that reached adult age: Joseph, James, George, Floyd, Hank, and David. Floyd Emmitt engaged with his father in the distilling and malting business. He is now a resident of Chillicothe. He married Miss Cornelia Cummins, of Portsmouth, Ohio, and they had children as follows: James and Samuel, who died in infancy; Flo! yd, who was accidentally killed in 1893, at age twenty-two years; Harriett and James K. James K. Emmitt was educated in the common and high schools of Chillicothe, and after completing his education was employed in the transient sign-painting business for three years. Then he went to Chicago, in the National Advertising service, and remained with that company until December, 1893. In March 1894, he opened his present business. Here he carries a full and complete line of hats, caps, and men's furnishing goods. Mr. Emmitt was married June 11, 1889, to Miss Ada Wallace, a native of Chillicothe, and a daughter of Augustus Wallace, a capitalist of this city. She is of Scotch-Irish descent. Her mother's maiden name was Elizabeth McGannis. Mr. and Mrs. Emmitt have one child; Maud Wallace Emmitt. Mr. Emmitt is a member of the B. P. O. E., Chillicothe Lodge, No. 52. He is a man of the strictest integrity and enjoys the confidence of all who know him. Title and Copyright Information: "Portrait and Biographical Record of The Scioto Valley, OHIO."

Surnames: PANCAKE, DAILEY, CHAMP, MALLOW, HOPEJOY Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2YB.2ACI/2093 Message Board Post: Archibald Pancake, who has been for many years a conspicuous figure in the history of Ross County, is the subject of the following biographical sketch: He is a native of the county in which he has always lived, born in Concord township, March 7, 1821, a son of Captain Isaac Pancake, a native of Virginia. The father was engaged in various commercial enterprises, and as he was a man of more than ordinary education he did considerable conveyancing and writing of legal documents. During the war of 1812 he was a Captain in the service of his country. He died at the age of eighty-seven years, having for sixty-five years been a consistant member of the Methodist Episocal Church. His wife, whose maiden name was Susan Daily, was born and reared in Kentucky. Her mother was a sister of John Champ, one of General George Washington's guards. Mrs. Pancake accompanied her family to Ohio, at an early age, and there passed the remainder of her life, dying at the age of sixty-eight years, hav! ing been a member of the Methodist Episocal Church from her sixteenth year. The paternal great-grandfather of our subject, John Pancake, was one of the pioneers of Ohio, coming here from Hampshire county, Virginia. He was one of the largest dealers in live-stock, driving many herds of cattle to Baltimore; his eldest son was the grandfather of Archibald Pancake, who in turn is the eldest child in a family of four sons and three daughters. He was born under the protecting shelter of a primitive log house, and as he grew to manhood was inured to the heavy labor of the frontier farm. His opportunities for a acquring an education were necessarily limited, but in 1847 he became a clerk in a store in Frankfort. During the previous year he had ridden all over the country, buying live-stock and wool, making many friends and winning the confidence of all with whom he had dealings. He purchased the store in which he gained his first mercantile experience, and in 1850 disposed of his i! nterests in this line, and purchased the farm which he now occupies. The original tract consisted of 100 acres, for which he paid at the rate of $20 an acre. He has added to this from time to time until he now has 300 acres in a high state of cultivation. He carries on a general farming business, and has met with more than ordinary success. Mr. Pancake was married in 1848 to Miss Sadie Mallow, daughter of Captain Henry Mallow, one of the early settlers of this section and an officer in the war of 1812. His father was captured by the Indians in Virginia at the age of six years, and was held prisoner six years, when he made his escape. In later years he came to Ohio and was a land owner in Concord township, where he lived to an advanced age. Captain Mallow died at age of sixty-eight years. His wife, whose maiden name was Sarah Hopejoy, lived to the age of eighty-three years; they were the parents of six children, three of whom are still living. Mr. and Mrs. Pancake have had nine children, only four of whom survive: Henry M., Isaac, Arthur, and Sadie F. The family are all members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr. Pancake has never taken an active interest in politics, although he votes with the Democratic Party. He is a man of good business ability, and has won the respect and confidence of a wide circle of acquaintances. From: "Portrait and Biographical Record of the Scioto Valley, Ohio."

Has anyone ever heard of a town or village in Highland County called HINKLE? To the best of my knowledge, it is no longer in existence. It did exist about 1900 and could possibly have been one of those old Post Office designations. Appreciate any information. Thanks, Lynn jmitchjr@zoomnet.net
