JOHN CHAMBERLIN, Cussewago Township
Was born August 1, 1809, on the same farm where he now lives. His
father, John Chamberlin, emigrated from New Jersey to this County in 1797, and
in 1798 settled on this farm, a view of which may be seen among the Cussewago
illustrations. John Chamberlin, Sr., was one of the first settlers in this
township, there being but one other family here when he came; the nearest mill
was at Meadville, fifteen miles, and the only way to get there to walk, and
carry his grist on his back. He lived in a cabin for a few years, then built
a log house; was obliged to go to Meadville for help to raise; among the men
who came was Judge Clark, who was then holding court at Meadville. John
Chamberlin, Jr., is a man of domestic character, preferring the comforts of a
quiet home, and giving his attention to his domestic affairs; is a man of
strict integrity and respected by all.
