Named in the 1861 county history

The history of Medina County was published 31 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

EZRA LEONARD, farmer ; P. O. Chatham Center ; is a son of one of the early settlers in this township, who came here in 1835, cotemporaneous with Levi L. Clapp and some other early arrivals. Ezra was born Feb. 28, 1815, in what was then Ontario, now Yates Co., N. Y. He was the third of a family of ten children, all of whom grew to maturity, whose parents were Truman and Roxanna (Allis) Leonard; both were born in Massachusetts. His native place was in Worthington. He was a son of Ezra, and of Irish descent. The grandfather of Roxanna Allis was a Scotch missionary.

Provenance

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