To Sue Luhman sunalu@email.msn.com and others who might be researching the two men listed above: Here are some references I found to those two men in the "History of Crawford County, PA, 1885." On page 805, in the Biographical Sketch section for Cambridge Township: "William L. DOW, millwright, Drake's Mills, was born in Springfield, Mass., June 8, 1818; son of Asa and Anna (Little) DOW, all of whom located in Cambridge Township, this county, in 1838. Mr. DOW learned the trade of millwright after coming here and has followed that business ever since. He was married January 8, 1844, to Betsy, daughter of Jonathan and Lydia (Pressy) Reynolds, early settlers of Erie County. By this union there are two daughters: Lydia, wife of Alton Thompson (have three children: Clyde, William and early), and Lina, wife of William NASON (have two children: Edgar G. and Maud). Both daughters reside in Cambridge Township, and Mr. DOW has lived in the vicinity of Drake's Mills ever since he settled in the county." On page 657, in the history of Steuben Township: "As nearly as can be ascertained the Methodist Class at Townville was organized in 1845. J.A. Pond, Harvey Hull and Gamaliel Phillips were of the original class. Soon after Mr. Langworthy, Dr. William NASON and Dr. Luther Pearse were prominent members." Hope these were of some assistance!
