Named in the 1915 county history

The history of Preble County was published 16 years after the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

Jacob Judy was born in Dauphin county, Pennsylvania, in the year 1797. From that State he moved to Ohio, and settled in German township, Montgomery county, in 1815. His death occurred in that county in 1877. At his death he was the largest farmer in German township - owning three hundred and eighty acres. His wife, Catharine Hetzler, is still living. He had seven children, six of whom still survive, namely: John, Mary, Samuel, Catharine, Susan and Jacob. Samuel, who was born in the year 1821, married Magdaline Bean, and has six children: Martin, Catharine, Abraham, Mary, Charlie and Lettie.

Provenance

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