Residents of 1842 - " John Sipes owned a cottage on
Section 20. Joshua Stepp paid a poll tax. John, Thomas and James Todd were assessed a
poll tax;
but George, Henry and William, although their names
appear
on the duplicate, seem to have been delinquent. Henry was
assessed a poll tax, but seems not to have paid it when due.
John Todd paid a tax of
$7.40; Thomas Todd
$10.87; and James Todd
$4.70; but $6.83 of the
tax of Thomas was
delinquencies settled. " [Blanchard p. 542]
The first school was taught near the
Todds. By 1856 six log school houses were created. One on land
donated
in Section 26 by "Mr. Todd".
"When
the
township
was created in 1849, elections were ordered held at
the house of John Todd, or
"at
Todd's Big Springs." These springs were fine ones and had induced
Mr. Todd to locate in
their
vicinity. Elections were held at Mr. Todd's for several
years. The old blacksmith shop there was probably
used.
Wylie Davar and Samuel Axam were the first Fence Viewers, Peter
Norman
the first Inspector of Elections and Wylie Davar the Constable.
The
school section was not sold until the fifties." [Blanchard. p.
544]
