In a book titled 1803 History of Knox County, Ohio It's Past and Present on page 485 it says "Horses were changed three times betwen Mt. Vernon and Columbus, via.: at Blendon Corners, Sunbury and at Joseph Jennings" tavern in Hilliar township. William Houck and Benjamin Jennings were the original stage drivers on this road." On page 229 of this same book it tells the story of the stage coach robbery but only says Hinton and does not list his first name. On page 480 this same book talks about Dr. Hilliar being the original settler arrived there in 1806 followed by Joseph Jennings, George Hinton and other and ther families. Joseph Jennings and Rebecca (Hinton) Jennings are my g-g-g-grandparents. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

He emigrated to Gambier, OH, in 1853, then moved to Mount Vernon in 1854. He was twice married, with 13 children born to his first wife, but I do not have her name, and I know of only two of the 13 children! His 2nd wife was Elizabeth HARNWELL (b 03 Nov 1800, England; d 02 Oct 1862, Knox Co, OH). Since I can find no marriage record, they may have been married in England before emigrating. George and Elizabeth are buried at Mound View Cemetery in Mount Vernon. The two children that I know of are Adam (who was in Knox County before his father) and Arthur (b 1843, England) I would appreciate any further information on this family!

Author: amyarmstrong Surnames: LONG, LEEDY Classification: biography Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.ohio.counties.knox/2932/mb.ashx Message Board Post: A MAN OF MANY PAINS David Long is a farmer, living about one and a half miles east of North Liberty, Knox County, Ohio. He lived on the farm he now owns, many years, and quietly pursued the avocation of farming. Mr. Long is a member of the family of twenty-two children fame. Seventeen of the twenty-one brothers and sisters of his grew up to manhood and womanhood. His father's name was John Long, and his mother was a sister of old Uncle John Leedy. The family moved to Knox County in 1816 or 1818, and Mr. Long entered land about one mile northeast of Ankneytown, which place is familiarly known as the "Johnny Long farm". Rev. S.A. Leedy now owns it. David, the subject of this sketch, grew up one of the jolly and kind-hearted boys of pioneer days, with a physical constitution that seemed to have no limit, and muscles as strong as iron bands. His familiar companion was Abe K. Leedy, who now resides near Pierceton, Ind., and was also a man of prodigious strength and great power of endurance. These two men usually entered the rolling field as a team, and both being powerful and full of boyish energy and youthful ambition, the logs would almost roll into heaps on their own accord, and the sweat would stream from the faces of the young gallants, as they would call on the others to "hurry up". But human endurance has a limit, and both of these men felt the effects of such efforts in later years. Mr. Leedy suffers greatly of rheumatism in his declining days. Mr. Long is now as helpless and dependent as a child. For six years he has been unable to do any work, even of the most ordinary kind. It is now past two years since he has been outside of his house, except on one or two occasions. During this time he has occupied a bed the greater part of the time, and an armed chair at the bedside the remainder. His companion feeds him the food he eats, and holds the cup for him to drink. He smokes occasionally, and she must fill the pipe, light it and place the stem in his mouth and when he is through smoking, she must also, remove it. When he sits in his armed-chair, his arms must be pillowed up as though they were made of the most delicate glass. His feet and hands are drawn into unsightly and inhuman shapes, and are puffed and discolored. Every time he moves a limb, the most excruciating pains pass through his limbs, and when he moves from his chair to the bed, a thousand pains seem to dart through his body, as a thousand flash! es of lightning over the face of heaven. So utterly helpless is his condition that he can not turn himself in bed. Whenever he desires to turn, his companion gets upon the bed standing, and taking hold of the sheet, she lifts one side up which rolls him over, as a person would a log. Notwithstanding the much suffering he must endure, he is cheerful in conversation, and bears his calamities with the patience and faith of a saint. No words could do justice in praising the devotion and kindness of his companion toward him. source: THE RICHLAND STAR (Bellville, Richland, Ohio): 29 January 1880, Vol. III, No. 18 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
