  From: "Marjorie Priser" mapriser@maplenet.net Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 9:08 PM Source: INKOSCIU-L@rootsweb.com Newspaper article Found in the July 28, 1904 issue of NORTHERN INDIANIAN. Interesting article ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ YE OLDER IMMIGRANTS In a Communication Thomas Woods Gives List of Eighty-three From One OHIO county. Editor Daily Times: Dear Sir When in attendance at the funeral of George B. Richhart on Sunday July 10, (he being a son of the first immigrants to Warsaw from Champaign county, Ohio) the thought came to my mind of how largely the city of Warsaw, Wayne township and Kosciusko county are indebted for their growth and prosperity to the immigration and settlement therein, of families and persons from the township of Goshen, Champaign county, Ohio, wherein the little village of Mechanicsburg is situated. Such thoughts occurred to me often for several days thereafter, and finally I concluded that I would, from memory, pencil down a list of such families and persons who have died since their removal to this county, and herewith furnish you such list for publication, thinking that it may be of interest to many of your readers, and especially to the host of survivors and descendants of those early immigrants, as follows: Aborn, Obed H. Aborn, Mary Aborn, Thomas E. Allison, John B. Aspinall, Joseph Albertson, William Albertson, Airy Blue, John L. Blue, William Caples, Mrs. John F. Daisy, Moses Daisy, Rhoda Evans, Adam ___ Evans, his wife Evans, John Sr. Evans, John ____ Evans, his wife Felkner, Margaret (Woods) Grove, John W. ___ Grove, his wife Grove, Anna Gill, John D. ____ Gill, his wife Gill, Sophia Gill, Susan (Mrs. O. B. Turner) Henry, William ___ Henry, his wife Jerman, Daniel Johnson, Mrs. Jesse (Allison) Kist, Amos T. S. ___ Kist, his wife Kist, Philomela Kist, Solomon ___ Kist, his wife Mulford, David ___ Mulford, his wife Millice, John Millice, Rebecca and daughter Millice, Mary Millice, Nelson ___ Millice, his wife Millice, Emeline and son Millice, David Millice, Henry Millice, James and wife Millice, Sophia Marvel, Benton II ___ Marvel, his wife Marvel, Sarah Neff, David Neff, Abraham Neer, Edward ___ Neer, his wife Neer, Henry ___ Neer, his wife Neer, Albiann Owens, Aaron ___ Owens, his wife Rigdon, Lewis ___ Rigdon, his wife Rigdon, Susannah Rigdon, Elijah W. Richhart, Benjamin ___ Richhart, his wife Richhart, Hannah Runyan, Mrs. John N. Sheaff, Bernard ___ Sheaff, his wife Thomas, Abner B. Winder, Caleb B. Winder, Allena Walters, Jacob ___ Walters, his wife Walters, Mary Walters, Daniel Woods, Adam S. ___ Woods, his wife Woods, Margaret Wynant, John Wynant, David S. Wynant, Ruth Wynant, James ___ Wynant, his wife Wynant, David ___ Wynant, his wife Wynant, Wm D. N. Wynant, Lizzie Wynant, Daniel ___ Wynant, his wife Wynant, Ann and daughter Wynant, Nancy Wynant, Elizabeth The total is eighty-three, and the reader must bear in mind that the list includes only the dead of these early immigrants. Many of the survivors of families and their descendants are yet living. For instance there are six descendants of the late John Milice, all having families. And one peculiarity about the early immigrants was that they were, in politics, nearly all Whigs and Republicans and aided largely to the steady growth of the Republican party in Kosciusko county. Only three of such immigrants were Democrats, and one of them soon became a Republican. As an illustration of the welcome received by the Whig population of the county, I will state that back in the '40s, when the late Judge James S. Frazer was editor of the Kosciusko Republican, after the arrival of a train of such early immigrants, he published the fact and added: "Warsaw's doors are wide open; let them come; they are all Whigs." What "Champaigner," without careful study, as I have made, would have thought that eighty-three of such early immigrants have passed into the great beyond. Surely, life is but a span, and many may soon follow. Mary Pyper so perfectly describes life that I here insert it and close. "I came at morn, 'twas spring, I smiled; The fields with green were clad, I walked abroad at noon, and lo! 'Twas summer, I was glad. "I sat me down, 'twas autumn eve, And I with sadness wept; I laid me down at night and then 'Twas winter, and I slept." THOMAS WOODS, Warsaw, July 18, 1904
