Named in the 1902 county history

The history of Greene County was published 8 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

Mr. Dunlavey was again drafted on the 25th of August, 1779; the rendezvous, Fort Pitt. He was in camp three days at the "King's Orchard," on the Allegheny river. He then marched up that stream under Colonel Broadhead as chief ofiicer. Colonel Gibson next in command. His captain was one Ellis. In this army were Lieuts. John Hardin, of the Thirteenth Virginia, and Samuel Brady, of the Eighth Pennsylvania, both afterwards famous in Indian warfare. John Monteur, a half-blood (son of Andrew Monteur, a Frenchman), a man of informa- tion and education, but a great savage, accompanied tlie expedition, which consisted of about seven liundred whites, inckiding some light liorse. and about sixty Indians.

Named in the same survey

11 establishments

The surveyors walked Greene County once and wrote down what they found. These are the other establishments from the same atlas, each with the line it was read from.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Greene 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.
