Named in the 1901 county history

The history of Fairfield County was published 17 years after the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

He served acceptably as Chairman of the Republican County Committee five terms. Was many times a delegate to district and state conventions. In one state delegation, when Senator Ewing was a delegate and the chairman. The most pleasing and acceptable, aye, honorable public duty that he was ever called upon to perform was to preside at the great meeting held in the Lancaster City Hall, in memory of General U. S. Grant, shortly after his death. The man, whose praise was on every tongue, and whose fame had encircled the earth.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Fairfield County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
