There appears to be two different Nathan Keiths----one who died about 1816, the other who married a Fidelia M. Pond 17 April 1845. Details: 1. Huron County, Ohio Marriages, 1815-1900, by Scheuer Publications. Nathan Keith m. Fidelia M. Pond 17 April 1845, old book 2, page 175. Charles Kieth (sic) m. Elvira Pond 22 Apr 1824, old book 1, page 58. ( I include Charles above on the possibility that he might be related to Nathan.) 2. History of the Firelands, by W.W. Williams, 1879. Page 224 in Chapter on Greenfield Township. Under heading of "Mills": "Nathan Keith, who moved into Bronson with Judge Southgate and family in 1816, was injured in this mill (Carkhuff's mill) during its erection, which caused his death a short time after." Page 229. Mantions Caleb Keith, Carlos Keith, Joshua Freeman and Jonathon Fish accompanied Robert S. Southgate of Barand , Vermont, to Ohio in the winter of 1815. Carlos Keith married, April 22, 1824, Elvira Pond, daughter of Munson Pond who moved into Peru from Knox County the year previous. (Note: Carlos Keith mentioned here would seem to be the same person as "Charles Kieth" mentioned in item 1. above.) 3. Plat book of 1845, Huron County, Ohio. Kaith (sic) and Pond, Peru Twp, section 1, lot 19, page 25. C. Keitt (sic), Peru Twp, section 1, lot 18, 10 acres, page 25. Carlos Keitt (sic), Peru Twp, section 1, lot 17, 12 1/2 acres, page 25.
