....Grandpa West has in his possession the original deed, by which the
government granted to a Mr. John Dillon the plot of the found on which was
later erected the Plainview School House. The deed is dated 1837 and has
the signature of Martin Van Buren, President of the United States....

....presuming that many of you are interested in knowing the original
settlers of your present homes we are listing as nearly as we can
ascertain, the original settlers and the names of those who now occupy the
farm, the original owner appearing first followed by the present owner:

Thomas West - Oliver West
Nathaniel States - Earl West

The incident of the Johnson boys killing their two Indian captors with their
own rifle and tomahawk as related in Howe's History of Early Ohio is thought
by some to have occurred in or near our district....
....Grandpa West says that his father, Thomas was acquainted with the elder
brother and often heard his father say that Mr. Johnson avoided discussing
the incident.

....I shall attempt to list below, first the names of the Civil War Veterans
who lived in our district or whose people now do so. I have no official
record to which to refer but am relying entirely upon the memories of our
people. Whenever know I am noting as killed, wounded, etc. Following the
names of the veterans, I am listing the relationship of our present citizens
to them:

Theodore Molden - Brother of Mrs. Oliver West

John Andrews - brother-in-law of Oliver West
