He was a millwright by trade: He built the first grist mill at Akron Ohio. They had three children as far as I know their names were George Egbert Rittenhouse, Harriet Rittenhouse born? died? and Mary Frances Rittenhouse born? died: August 17,1857: single. If I'm not mistaken I think the two girls died young ? But their bother was to have married a Sarah Blossom on November 24,1875: he was by occupation a blacksmith: residing at Akron,Ohio. I also did a little research myself with the census for Akron Ohio. I think I found them at first living in North Akron township of Portage in 1840 then in 1850 Summit Co. by the time 1860 came around their father George Rittenhouse had already died in September 2! 8,1854. and it was just his wife and son and a nephew or a cousin that was attending school there his name was Oliver he was from Roxborough Phila:Pa his age was 15 and thats as far as I got with the census for 1860 Mary Clarissa ( Miller ) Rittenhouse and son by that were living in ( Fulton Co ) she died in 1874 if you can fine any info: maybe death notice or cemetery where their buried at I would really appreciate it thank you and GOD BLESS.
