Named in the 1880 county history

The history of Auglaize County was published 27 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

William Lusk, son of Charles and Anna Lusk, was born in Virginia July 14th, 1817, and when about eighteen years of age came with his parents to this county. He had very limited educational opportunities in the old State, and here it fell to his lot to work rather than attend school. The father was a strict temperance man, and the son became likewise an advocate of sobriety, and, notwithstanding the influences by which he was surrounded during his youth when liquor was a factor in the fields, he is able to say that he has never used intoxicating liquor during his whole life. In 1833, he united with the Methodist Episcopal church, and in 1859 was licensed as a local minister, which relation he sustained until the present time.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Saint Marys, 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.
