Description An account of the resource [page 2] [corresponds to page 1 of I-DENTITY] A FORWARD BY THE AUTHOR I-DENTITY was written to satisfy the hunger each of us has to know "who am I and where did I come from?" Perhaps the background will give a sense of direction to the foreground. The following is an explanation of the purpose of this work and is by no means an apology for it. A genealogy is simply an account of family ancestors and rel- atives with their pedigrees. No doubt some will find it dull, dry, boring-while others will think it exciting. In my research, I have found references to different families' occupat- ions, careers, and special projects which are included to add interest. Hopefully each Longshore family will find this work helpful whenever he would like to find out where Great, Great Uncle Harry lived and what he did for a living, who his wife was and how many kids did he have anyway, and why did he leave Ohio (or wherever) in the first place! You will not find all the answers but you may find some valuable clues. I have carefully researched and tried to validate all statements. However, by the very nature of the subject, some data has to be based on tradit- ion, hearsay, and the reliability of someone's memory. Even the census takers made mistakes in their recordings of names and birthdates, partly because at times the respondents themselves did not know how to spell their names, read, or write and oftentimes the early census takers themselves were just one step ahead of the illiterate. So please take any mistakes in stride and try to understand how it could happen even among very conscientious recorders; and make your own corrections and additions. The genuine history student no doubt will thrill as he fits his own ancestor into the proper time slot and location, and his imagination can run riot as he pictures his courageous OWN-striving for religious freedom, fighting the wars, clearing the wilderness, fleeing the Indians, burying their children, strugg- ling to stave off starvation and other privations. He can also envision happy times such as barn dances, family and community gatherings, games and contests, the plain simple family together- ness in work and recreation. Americans have always played, sung their songs, and danced, and most importantly - laughed! Many thanks to each of you who has cooperated so beautifully and contributed in any way. Special gratitude to my father-in-law, Lester Longshore, who patiently racked his brain to answer my persistent questions; Harold and Bessie Longshore who drove to Ohio from Iowa last fall special to bring their data on the Truman Longshore line, compiled in part by the late Homer Longshore and Matilda Longshore Rule; Claire Longshore Raybuck who helped me read tedious microfilm at the libraries; my husband, Russell, who tolerated my meanderings in the cemeteries, and my absent-mindedness while I was focusing on people, dates, and places of yesteryear; but most of all to my daughter, Janet Nuckles Mallett, who gave freely of her expertise and time to photocopy this story. I have loved every minute of this experience, especially the making of new friends. If in any way, my probings into family matters has offended anyone, please forgive.

Description An account of the resource [page 5] [corresponds to page 4 of I-DENTITY] Organization and Numbering I have endeavored to keep the numbering system simple for easy, prompt reference. I will attempt to explain the method. The generations will start with Pennsylvania emigrant, David Longshore. Since this is a vertical genealogy; that is each ancestor's descendants follow his introduction, the Roman numerals will represent the generations and will be used for each family grouping. A generation is considered to be roughly a span of 30 years, but sometimes they overlap in the larger families. David Longshore's children will be Generation I, and each of his children will have a Capital letter in order of birth, to set them apart from the later generations. Following generations will have only the Roman numeral with an Aramaic numeral to indicate the birth sequence among the brothers and sisters. For example: David Longshore, emigrant from Pa. in 1806 Issue: I IA John Longshore IB Cyrus Longshore IC Warner Longshore ID Rachel Longshore IE Sarah Longshore IF Charles Longshore IG David Longshore, Jr. IH Daughter Longshore (?) Cyrus IB = second child of David (the first) Truman IIB4 = fourth child of Cyrus Clem IIIB3 = third child of Truman William Bryan IVB1 = first child of Clem Leona Longshore Pratt VB2 = 2nd child of Wm. Bryan Patti Ann Pratt VIB1 = 1st child of Leona Pratt The index will tell which page each family group is on, so the reader can turn immediately to the branch he is particu- larly interested in at the moment, without having to thumb through reams of irrelevant material. It is suggested that corrections and additions be made on the back of the corresponding sheets so as to keep the book legible and neat. Extra sheets can be inserted or added at the back.

Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to page 5 of I-DENTITY] Possible Pennsylvania Beginnings of Longshores Robert Longshore "Robert Longshore, gentleman"! With all that this word connotes, WHY would Robert ever leave his established, secure, comfortable home in England, to delve into an unknown, untamed land? Perhaps his young blood raced at the thought of making his mark in America, the land of opportunity! Maybe he was simply an adventurous sort wishing to break the bonds of family and tradition. Could be, Robert was seeking religious freedom such as the Quaker, William Penn, had sought in America. Whatever his reasons, the real truth of it will never be known. It is known that many grossly exaggerated stories of America's wealth and opportunities had floated back to England and enticed folk there to migrate to the "land of the free". Consequently, thousands of Europeans sailed to America shortly after Robert's arrival in 1681. Most likely Robert Longshore, a surveyor, had already been commissioned as a deputy surveyor to Thomas Holme before he left his homeland, which would have assured him a measure of security. Robert Longshore did help Holme survey and plan the city of Philadelphia for William Penn. This beautiful port city along the Delaware River became known as the city of Brotherly Love, because its proprieter ruled it and the colony with fairness and love, allowing total freedom of worship. Penn endeavored to treat the Indians fairly also and did not incur their hatred as leaders in other colonies had done. There were 45,333 square miles in this grant of wilderness land which had been given to Penn at his request as settlement of an $80,000 debt owed by King Charles II of England to William Penn's father, Admiral Sir William Penn. William Penn wanted a refuge for himself and his Quaker followers away from the com- pulsory attendance to the church of England. Matter of fact, since he had been jailed several times because of his rebellion and religious fervor, he had become a nuisance to the Crown and an embarrassment to his father; therefore they were relieved to be rid of this rebel, William Penn. Robert Longshore, himself, could have been a part of this Quaker movement! At any rate, this city Robert had helped lay out soon became a cultural center and prospered. It rivaled Boston and was the capital of colonial Pa. Pennsylvania became a leader among the other 12 colonies, namely; Virginia, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut, Maryland, New York, New Hamp- shire, The Carolinas, and Georgia and became known as the Key- stone State because of its location. Pennsylvania and Maryland were the only two proprietary colonies, which meant they were owned by individuals. Robert Longshore situated himself in the center of Phila- delphia on the corner of Market and Front Streets. In due time, this founding father of the American Longshores met and wed Margaret Cock, a daughter of Pieter Larson Cock. Pieter had been among the first Swedish immigrants coming to Pa. in 1641. He was a collector of tolls, imports and exports, for the colonies. He also served a magistrate for New Sweden and later as a deputy governor.

Description An account of the resource [page 7] [corresponds to page 6 of I-DENTITY] Sometime after Robert and Margaret's union, he purchased 500 acres of land in Bristol Township, Bucks County, Pa. and settled there. Robert and Margaret probably were born about 1660, give or take a few years. There is no record to show how many children they presented to their new country but most likely they did their duty. A son, Euclydus I, was born about 1690. Not much is known of Euclydus I, except on Jan. 8, 1715, he married Alice Stackhouse (b1699) when she was but 16. Alice was a daughter of Thomas and Grace Heaton Stackhouse, one of 14 children. Alice's father was a descendant of Thomas Stack- house, who arrived on the boat "Welcome"in 1682, and her mother, a daughter of Robert and Alice Heaton of Middletown, Pa. It is said that the 1st generation children of the Stackhouses inter- married with the families of Clark, Stone, Wilson, Longshore, Copeland, Gilbert, Watson, Plumley, Cary, Haring, Janney, Mitchell, Stephenson, Tomlinson, and others and that their descendants are almost legion --. Euclydus I and Alice lived in Middletown, Pa., where he died in 1764. Issue of Euclydus I and Alice Stackhouse Longshore: Robert 10/13/1716 Grace 2/24/1717 - 1726 Thomas 9/13/1721 Margaret 4/21/1724 Alice 7/ 4/1726 Grace (2) 6/18/1728 Euclydus 12/ 4/1730 - 1732 Mary 10/30/1732 - 1734 * Euclydus II 4/27/1735 - 6/14/1804 This descension shows the high death rate among children at that time. Since only five of Euclydus I's children sur- vived him, out of nine produced, sorrow was no stranger to Euclydus and Alice. At this period in the country's history, manpower was needed and so large families were desirable to help with the work, usually on a farm where they could raise their own food; and to offset the death toll. Because of frequent childbirth, hard work, hardships, lack of medical attention, women too fell prey to the grim reaper, and it was not uncommon at all for a man to have two, three, four wives in his life- time. The family line is picked up through Euclydus II and it seems he was the most prolific of the Longshores, fathering 22 children, 11 by each wife. No one could accuse him of showing favoritism!

Witness present Euclydus Longshore John Blakely William Gillam June 22, 1804 It is to be noted that only twelve of Euclydus II's 22 children survived him, attesting again to the high infant mor- tality rate. As late as 1900 and beyond, the infant mortality rate was 50%. Since most people in the 18th and 19th centuries had to make the caskets used by their family members, a supply in different sizes was generally kept made up ahead. Many infants succumbed to a disease called cholera infantum; typhoid, malaria, & tuberculosis also claimed many lives. Not only did individual families supply their own coffins, they likewise dug the graves; so tragedy made a double impact on them in the early days. According to Thomas Ellwood Longshore, from whom most of the previous data has come and who supplied many records up to 1890, the following is from his compilation regarding Euclydus II's family: Some of Abner Longshore's descendants settled in Ohio Anna Longshore's daughter, Betty Atkinson, lived in Zanesville Margaret Longshore md James Slack Joseph Longshore md Joanna Kelley ch: Amos and Kelley Longshore Rachel Longshore md Valentine Dickerson ch: Sarah, William, John, Joseph, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Ann Dickerson Thomas Canby Longshore md Jane Gaine ch: Jane, Maria, Sally James Longshore md Sarah Roberts - owns a candy & con- fectioner's business in Columbus, Ohio Title A name given to the resource I-DENTITY (p. 11) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/62a9eab1cec4c8b1a9a6b2f5c7b1b731.jpg 983aa69f92e6d75320b80247583bd253 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Euclydus Longshore II's son, Abraham's family, had some active, interesting, and distinguished members whose contributions to society will give some insight to the par- ticular line this compiler is pursuing. "Memoranda and Notes of the Longshore Family, Pioneers of Which Settled in Bucks Co., Pa." is also written by the same descendant, Thomas E. Longshore, son ofAbraham Longshore, and was compiled from tradition and the records he had found. Some of his data used in this narration heretofore has been paraphased but this item is verbatim. It will be of interest to the family today because it shows how Thomas E.'s grandfather's and father's families weathered the hard time of the late 1700s and early 1800s when this new country was suffering growing pains follow- ing its independence. Suffice it to say that these gentlemen did not serve in the Revolutionary War probably because they had such large families to support. Many of their descendants served in later wars, proving their patriotism. "Euclydus Longshore, our grandfather, from the impression I have received from different members of the family, was rather an easy, good-natured man with a kind of dry humor. He was of a light, sandy complexion with light brown hair. At the time, Father, (Abraham) was born (11/6/1785), I believe the family was living in a stone, one story house, north of John Watson's farm, in Middletown, Bucks Co.,Pa., on the south side of the road. Grandfather was not much of a farmer but things drifted anyhow. The children went to work as soon as old enough. Father went to James Wildman's to live at age 12, as a "taken" boy * He did not get along satisfactorily with old Adam Adams, their colored hired man, and refused to thresh in the barn with him because of being so abused. Father kept a daily diary as proof of his grievances so he could be freed from his indenture*. Euclydus, my grand- father, died when Father (Abraham) was 19. Father borrowed $1000. to purchase a farm and it was all he could do to pay interest. We all had to do what we could to save money by living poor and dressing in homespun clothing, eating mush, rye bread without butter or molasses, and potatoes, no tea or coffee, or sugar, or even lard, rye pie shortened with smoked pot-skimmings and dried apples so sour we made the less of it answer. Father had gone to school 3 months and learned to read, write, and cipher. He had a good memory and could sing 100 songs. He loved to read, mostly the Bible". (Abraham's father, Euclydus II, died in 1804) *"Apprenticeship in early days was serious business. Articles of indenture were drawn up with all the care of a conveyance of real estate and corresponding obligations of master and apprentice were specifically set forth."

Many time the master was a tyrant dictating every breath his servant took, including his morals and use of his leisure time (what little there was). *Abraham was able by virtue of his diary to obtain a hearing and get out of his obligation to James Wildman. However, in some in- stances, apprenticeship served a good purpose when the "indenturee" was able to learn a trade as well as earn room and board. There were no public schools to teach a trade and most of the common people could not read or write so how else were they to learn! Too often though the masters abused and exploited the trainees.

Turning his attention to the medical profession, he graduated in medicine from the University of Pa. at age 24 and practiced several years at Attleborough (later named Langhorne). In 1850, he established a medical College in Philadelphia for women, the first of its kind in the world.

Volume I (published 1906) "Longshore Family, long residents in Pa. Founder of family in Pa. was Robert Longshore, who came from England and settled at Front and Market Sts. in Phila- delphia; later moved to Bucks Co." The name of the person who sent in this biography to the previously mentioned book is not mentioned so there is no way to know which of Isaish Longshore's grandchildren wrote it - "Isaiah Longshore, grandfather, lived at Beach Haven, where he kept a hotel and boarding house, died at age 47 and buried there.

A Mason. 1 child, Harry Carter Longshore, d at 14; adopted a dau., Jane Martin, md to Wallace Ellerslie Engle and she has a son, William Longshore Engle, who resides in Hazelton." These historic and biographic passages are used for one purpose - to show that some of the early Longshores were human- itarians; vitally interested in their country, in the healing arts, women's rights, foreign aid, and political reform. They were great contributors to their fellow man, be it on a local, state, or national scale; always ready to serve.

Description An account of the resource [page 17] [corresponds to back of page 15 of I-DENTITY, a letter to Mrs. Maxine Longshore] 7224 E.17th St. N. Wichita, KS 67206 August 11, 1991 Dear Mrs. Longshore: join the DAR and wrote to two of her father's cousins, one a Davidson and one a Longshore. She didn't get to join but the letters she re- ceived were very helpful when I started my research. Incidentally, the Longshore cousin she wrote to was James C. who was loving at 1201 Hamlet St. in Columbus at the time. I don't know what year he died but he was elderly at the time-79-and only he and his sister Sarah were still alive. The reason that you don't find a complete list of the children of Euclydus and Susannah Van Horn is that they were married out of meeting. All of the children of that first marriage had names beginning with A. When Euclydus returned to the Quakers he took what children he could back with him and his son Abner was one of the witnesses at his marriage to Sarah Gillam. I was told recently by one of my earlier correspondents that another lady had told him that the David Longshore who married Elizaneth Warner was the son of Cyrus Longshore, who was marred to Mary David and waws the son of Thomas Longshore and Joanna Vance. Thomas Longshore was the son of euclydus Longshore and Alice Stackhouse and was born the 13th day of the 9th month 1721. He was married to Johanna Vance on the 10th day of the 4th month 1742 at the Middletown Monthly Meeting (LDS film 20403, pp.308-9). Thomas' will is file # 1162, Bucks Co., PA. It is dated 11 Jan 1777 and proved 13 Feb 1777. Johanna died between the writing of her will dated 22 d 4m 1792 and the probate date of 14 June 1794 and is file # 2535 Bucks. Co. Her parents are as yet unknown but she has a sister, Jane McLear. the first child of Thomas and Johanna was born less than nine months after their marriage and Thomas became angry with the reprimand of the Quakers. In his will, thomas mentions his wife Johanna, his sons Thomas, cyrus, and euclydus and his daughters, elizabeth Hunter and Margaret Wiley. I found deeds dated 14 Apr 1784, filed 27 Sept 1785, of Cyrus and wife mary and euclydus and wife Jane. They mention that the land came from their father, Thomas. Johanna in her will mentions her sister, Jane McLear, her son Euclydus, her daughters, Elizabeth Hunter (wife of Andrew) and her daughter Margaret Wiley, her grandson Amos (the son of thomas who later married Ann cox) and her granddaughter Jane (the daughter of Cyrus who later married Aaron Cox). These are known facts and I have written to the lady in Iowa to find out the facts on which she bases her conclusions. The death date given for David Longshore is 3 Nov 1859. The 1800 Tax list for Middletown Twp., Bucks Co. shows him as a single man. 20 Jan 1802 david Longshore of Middletown m.

Can you suggest any of the other descendants of the branch of David Longshore-Elizabeth Warner to whom I could write to bring other lines down to the present? Is it possible to secure copies of wills, obits, and the other pertinant data? I would pay copying costs if that would help.

Description An account of the resource [page 18] [corresponds to page 16 of I-DENTITY] To get back on the track - The Ohio progenitor of the Longshores is David Longshore. There is data to prove he came to Ohio in 1806; to Del. Co. with his brother, Euclydus (III), in 1808; purchased land in Delaware County in 1811. Many clues link David to the line of Robert, Euclydus I, Euclydus II; but actually there is no record found, as of this date, to prove a David Longshore, born Jan. 1779, was born to this line or any other line! This author is still researching on this puzzle and if additional information is ever unearthed, it will be attached at the end of the story. It is the considered opinion of this compiler that the "missing link" can be theorized as follows: Perhaps[underlined] David was the youngest child of Euclydus ** and ____Cox Longshore and possibly his mother died at his birth or shortly thereafter. In the con- fusion, his birth was never recorded. This thought is based on his birthdate of Jan. 25, 1779; the fact Euclydus II remarried on May 1780; and his first child by the second wife, Euclydus III, was born in 1781. Since all of the children by Euclydus II's first wife had names beginning with an "A", it could be that David did not like his "A____" name, whatever it was, and decided to use his other given name and change his image when he came to Ohio. At any rate, there is no hint of the "A" in any of his legal papers. The following excerpts are from biographies submitted by one of David's children (Charles) and one of his daughter-in-laws (Margaret) will bear out the fact David did come from Pa. in 1806 and settled in Delaware County, Ohio in 1808. From Baskins 1880 HISTORY OF DELAWARE COUNTY "Charles Longshore, farmer: P.O. Condit; is a son of David and Elizabeth (Warner) Longshore; his father was born in Pa. and came to Ohio in 1806, settling in Berkshire Township, west of Sunbury, on the farm now owned by Mrs. Grist, where he lived until his death; it was then a dense forest, there being but one house between Delaware and Johnstown, and that where George Gibson now resides; the only neighbor for some time was a brother; their first nights were spent in the woods around a fire, with a friendly Indian as company." "Margaret Longshore, P.O. Condit; was born July 2, 1804, a daughter of Christian and Sallie (Linderman) Young; her father settled in Ohio about 1816, and farmed near Galena until his death in 1838. She was married June 22, 1826, to Cyrus Longshore, by whom she has had six children, four are now living; her husband was born Nov. 24, 1804, in Muskingum Co., *Ohio, and came with his parents to Delaware Co. about 1808, settling west of Sunbury on a farm now owned by the Landon Brothers, and in 1836 on the farm owned by Mrs. (Margaret) Long- shore; he died May 3, 1870."

Description An account of the resource [page 19] [corresponds to page 17 of I-DENTITY] * There is a discrepancy about the place of Cyrus' birth; the 1850 and 1860 Delaware County Census, also his death record, state that he was born in Pa. It is possible David stopped in Muskingum County in 1806 where other relatives lived, on his way to central Ohio. This biography states he came to Delaware County in 1808, which is entirely plausible. Somewhere else there is a reference to David's having lived in Sunbury Township before purchasing his farm in 1811 in Berkshire Township. David Longshore was born three years after the birth of the United States of America, and ten years before George Washington became president in 1789. He arrived in Ohio during the term of Thomas Jefferson, and in Delaware County in time to ['Del. Co. in 1808' handwritten in margin] see Delaware City laid out in 1811, Columbus in 1812, and Sunbury in 1816 and just four years before the War of 1812. At that time Ohio was considered the Crossroads of the Nation. A big busines boom existed immediately following that war. The schedule of prices shown here will show the prosperity that lasted until 1819 when prices slid back to pre-war levels. Pre-war Prices Prices 1812 - 1819 hogs - $1.50 per 100# hogs - $4.00 per 100# oats - .50 per bu. oats - 1.00 per bu. corn - .50 per bu. corn - 1.00 per bu. flour - 1.00 per 100# flour - 4.00 per 100# hay - 10.00 per ton hay - 20.00 per ton Some prices nose-dived to below pre-war values, such as; corn sold for 10-12 cents per bu.; potatoes - 12 cents bu., etc. Rigid economy was practiced by all grades of society - even the wealthy drank rye coffee and distinguished men dressed in blue linsey pantaloons for a time. In 1820 in Columbus, Ohio, over one hundred parcels of real estate were advertised in one ad- vertisement of sheriff's sales! Gradually though the nation recuperated from the recession. One blessing for the white man was that he never again was bothered by the red man in these parts after 1812. David and Euclydus (III) purchased their 134 acres in Range 17, Twp. 4, Lot 4, from Thomas Brown for $268.67 1/2. The 1812 Tax record values it at 67 1/2 cents an acre! In 1816, it seems they sold half of this same land - 67 7/16 acres - for $400., tripling their money. Perhaps this is a further example of the inflation of that period. Later however, in 1819, a quit claim deed is recorded whereby Euclydus (III) and Sarah, of Muskingum County, transferred the east half of 134 7/8 acres for the sum of $202. to David Longshore. Reference to David, in Charles' biography, states that David lived on the land he settled until his death in 1858. At the time this farm was purchased in 1811, there were only 2000 people in the entire county! By 1850, there were 1557 persons in Berkshire Township but this dropped to 1392 in 1860. Nevertheless, it was not over- populated at that time. Following is a copy of the original land purchase by David and Euclydus and their wives.

Description An account of the resource [page 21] [corresponds to page 19 of I-DENTITY] From the description in this deed and comparison with a map of this area in 1811 and 1860, it is pretty well determined that David's farm lay west of Sunbury, beginning at the corner of St.Rt. 37 and Twp. Rt. 72, running along the southside of County Rt 72 as far as the Henry Beaver farm. At the corner of RT. 37, in more recent years, this area was known as the Burt Cornell farm, and the old brick house about 1/8 mile west of Rt. 37 on Co. Rt. 72 was the homestead. Remnants of this house still lay there up until about 10 years ago, when a new ranch-style house was built by that grove of trees, and some of that farmland was portioned into building lots. Jon-Jon's Restaurant is on the corner now of Rts. 37 & Twp. Rt. 72. David's son, John, owned land in this same territory which partially adjoined his father's and that land is now owned by the V.M. Green heirs. Before it came into the Green ownership, the land in the general area was owned by Griste and Landon families. The original land purchase passed from Longshore hands before 1860, probably at the time of David's decease in 1858. Coincidentally, before he had any know- ledge of where his ancestors had first settled, a descendant of David's, Russell Longshore, purchased an acreage across the road from the original plot and built a house on it 17 years ago (1959)! At the turn of the 19th century, the land where David took up abode could scarecely be seen for the trees; now the land can scarcely be seen for the houses, shopping center, and commercial buildings: Super highways have replaced the scenic byways and the accelerated pulse of modern civilization - even in this rural area - has supplanted the leisurely heart throb of nature and its wonders. But then, that's progress! Everyone enjoys the modern conveniences but they want the slower pace, and somehow oil and water just don't mix. "Despite technological advances, inventions, and explor- ations that would have seemed miraculous to our grandparents; indeed, that even seem miraculous to us, people are still people. Go back in time - or forward - ten years, a hundred, or a thousand - you'll find people loving, hating, desiring, and fearing the same things as thoday. You'll find people valuing the same things - success, status, comfort, friendship, love." An excerpt from THE MASTERY OF PEOPLE by Auren Uris. In this bicentennial year, it is popular to look back to "the good ole days" and see only the good part; especially when the TV announcer comes on with his "and this is the way it was, 200 years ago" accompanied by a fife and drum playing their version of "Yankee Doodle". A little tingle goes up the spine and one feels a yearning for the peace (?) of bygone days. It is easy then to forget the hardships the pioneers faced each day. It is doubtful if anyone of this generation could accurately define a pioneer hardship because no one nowadays has experienced it; so "starvation", "privation", "Indian massacre" are just words in today's vocabulary. But then, possibly, the pioneer could not define the words of this day, such as: "mugging", "freak-outs", "spaced out", "murder contracts", et cetera.

II B 6 Issac Newton Longshore b 6/14/1839 d 5/11/1920 bd Trenton Md Angeline T. Bourne (1840-1936) on 11/23/1865. In the 1880 HISTORY OF DELAWARE CO. by Baskins, it says that I.N. Longshore was very active in the Christian Union Church (Bethel, in Licking Co.), of which he was an Elder and Superintendent of Sunday Schools. The biography also states he once carried mail from Johns- town to Newark daily for one year, worked as a carpen- ter for years, but mostly he farmed. Angeline was born in Ohio just one year after her parents, Almerian and Elizabeth (Jewett) Bourn who were born in Mass., came to Ohio in 1839. "After marriage, I.N. and Angeline settled on the old homestead where their resident still is (in 1880). (This is where the Harvey McElroy farm now is on Ross Rd., Trenton Twp.) In May of 1880, I.N. sold his farm for $1000. cash and soon after bought one of 47 acres at $60.00 an acre from A. C. Bowers; he also worked 83 acres of his mother's (Cyrus' and Margaret's) farm." In late years he retired to a house and lot in Condit across from the schoolhouse and cemetery. His son, Seth, then took over the farming.

Description An account of the resource [page 33] [corresponds to page 31 of I-DENTITY] Carlyle once said that "History is the essense of innumerable biographies". An appropriate follow-up might be a statement by Longfellow in which he said, "We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while we judge others by what they have done." Oft times later generations can be inspired by the achievements of those gone on before or be put on guard by their failures. We cannot rest on the laurels of our ancestors; neither are we held to account for their deeds; we can rise above or sink below their character, but the fact remains we are a composite of our ancestors and that is why Susie may "take after" Aunt Mary or Johnny after Uncle Joe or Granddad. Strange how the genes work _______________________________________________________________________________ After the death of Truman's 2nd wife, Lucretia, in 1881, Truman brought his motherless children back to Ohio and he never went out west again. The children were taken in by various family members until old enough to go on their own. Since Harriet (Longshore) and her husband, George Ginn, only had one child, Elmine, at home they took 14 year old Milo into their home. One day when Milo was near 18 years of age, he went downtown to get a loaf of bread for his aunt. Two years later he returned and tossed a loaf of bread on the table, saying, "Here's your loaf of bread!" The 2nd time he left he kept in contact with them. The Ginns also had been in Iowas for three years but George become so homesick they came back to Ohio. This was prior to Truman's tragedy. When Clem Longshore, along with his parents, Truman and Lucretia and their family were traveling out west from Ohio, they used a flat bed wagon. They had a team of horses, two cows, one sow, and a dog. On the wagon was a bed, dresser, and two stoves. The womenfolk rode on the wagon and drove the team while the father and sons walked. When they came to a cabin, it was customary for that family to provide accommodations for the travelers. They fed the family and livestock. The men of the house went outside and slept under the wagon with the traveling men while the women all slept inside the house. When the Longshores arrived at their destination, they turned the horses out to pasture. The horses ran off toward home with the dog. The dog made it on home but the horses stopped at the "big river". Later the horses were found beside a large river (which lay on the homeward route) which evidently they were reluctant to cross. A postcard informed the Longshores of the horses' whereabouts. Truman took a train to retrieve the horses.

Description An account of the resource [page 35] [corresponds to page 34 of I-DENTITY] Truman Longshore Fourth Son of Cyrus Longshore II B4 The Truman Longshore line is being recorded out of sequence of Cyrus' sons because his family seemed to be more prolific, plus the fact he and most of his Ohio ancestors and their descendants remained or still live in the particular area where this compiler lives. Therefore, information is more accessible as well as personal knowledge and contact with the subjects and availability of resource material gives more insight to this line. Every effort has been made to research the other lines and all submitted material has been appreciated and used. Consequently an abundance of data follows: possibly Job 14:1-9 expresses what he may have felt at times: "Man is born of woman, is of few days, and full of trouble." Truman was one of the four, out of six, sons who survived his father, Cyrus; Jonathan and Minor having died before 1870. He and his mother, Margaret were executors of Cyrus' will. Truman was sort of a jack-of-all-trades, having farmed a great amount, he was a competent teamster, operated a sawmill and tile mill, et cetera. He must have been somewhat of an adventurer considering that he got around considerably for that day of poor traveling facilities. The railroad came to Delaware in 1851 and it was called the "Big Four" since it ran through Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis, and Truman could have used its accommodations some of the time. At any rate, get around he did, whether by horseback, carriage, stagecoach, covered wagon, or by rail. To travel by any of these methods required super desire, courage, a strong constitution, and perseverance! Truman may have been enticed to pursue greener pastures by the lectures of Horace Greeley who was a journalist and politician who went around over the country lecturing with the clarion call "Go west, young man!" hinting of riches and acclaim that lay just beyond for the going and claiming. It is known that some of Truman's Longshore cousins also answered this call and went West; perhaps forming a wagon train. Rumblings from some of the wives' grumblings are still being heard of, such as; "Haint no sense to it at all!" The women were content with their lot in life right where they were. The gold rush of 1849 (although Truman at 14 was too young to embark at that time) may have had some appeal although there is no record of any Longshore having found gold! Some of the Longshores must have found something they liked in Illinois and Iowa because some went and stayed. Most of them eventually came back to Ohio and their roots here. It is known that Truman found his first wife, Larusia Bouier, in Peoria, Illinois in 1859. Most likely he lived out there farming before and in the early part of his marriage. His son, Clem, many times told the story of his father's second move out to Illinois. They went by covered wagon. In the late fall, they turned the horses out to open pasture as was the custom there. The horses and dog must have been homesick because they ran off toward Ohio. Later the horses were found beside a large river (which lay on the homeward route) which evidently they were reluctant to cross. The dog left them (as compared to Ohio's at that time) and said that one time he harrowed corn all day and didn't get over the field.

Description An account of the resource [page 36] [corresponds to page 35 of I-DENTITY] It is thought that the first three of Truman's children were born in Ohio and the other five in Illinois. It is re- corded that Will was born in Ohio and that Clem was born in a log house on his grandfather Cyrus' farm - possibly the tenant house, in 1865. Truman was back in Ohio at that time and also in 1870 at the time of his father's death. Larusia had died the year before at age 35. She is buried at Condit, Ohio. In 1871, Truman married Lucretia [underlined] Peters. A copy of her father's biography follows: Also taken from Baskins 1880 Delaware County History -- Daniel H. Peters, farmer and stockraiser; P.O. Green, Licking County, Ohio is a son of William and Sarah (Bashford) Peters; his father was of English descent, and born in Maryland; his mother of Irish descent; her father was from Cork, Ireland. Mr. Peters's father emigrated to Ohio about 1816, and his grandfather came to America in 1808, and served awhile in the War of 1812. Mr. Peters was born Jun 26, 1820, in Pickaway County, Ohio and came to Licking Co., in April, 1822. Nov. 27, 1842, he was married to Miss R. Iles; she was born in Licking Co.; they had nine children - Sarah J., Lucretia, James W. Effie, Oliver, Emma, William P., Melissa, and Martha. His wife died Oct. 6, 1863; she was a member of the M.E. Church. Daniel was again married, in 1864, to Mary A., daughter of Edward and Mary Lake, by whom he had six children; five living - Rose D., Frank J., Milton H., Mark M., William S. and John M who died Nov. 21, 1869. He (Daniel) lived, after marriage in Licking Co. four years and then rented his present farm of 124 acres, which he bought two years afterward. About 1859, he learned the carpenter's trade, and has thus been enabled to make his own farm improvements; in 1864, he commenced dealing in Spanish merino sheep, which he supplies to those wanting at fair prices; he has filled his share of the township offices, and is now a member of the Christian Union Church, as are also five members of his family. He has served as Supt. of Sunday School for 25 yrs, and many years as Elder. This church now has membershp of 100. He is a member of Sparrow Lodge, No. 400, A.F.& M. According to a granddaughter, Daniel Peters score of children reached 17! (Daniel H. Peters: June 26, 1820 - Aug 23, 1900 Mary I.

Description An account of the resource [page 37] [corresponds to page 36 of I-DENTITY] Harriett and her husband George Ginn, having only one (at home) child, Elmine aged 9, took five year old Milo to raise. Mae, who was eight went to live with a sister of Lucretia's in Mich. It is not known where Dean, aged 9, stayed, but when he turned 18 he went to Iowa where he settled. So, compassionate relatives "took in" the children and it was such a commendable thing to do. Everyone did the best they could but still the family circle was broken. However the family, though scattered hither and yon, remained close in spirit and all kept in touch, visiting each as often as possible. Most of them eventually settled in Central Ohio. Truman did not set up housekeeping again until Mae was old enough to keep house for him. He then purchased a place in Olive Green in 1886. At that time a Doc Foster and Truman became business partners in a tile mill. All went well until Doc decided to shoot himself dead in a tile kiln. Just one more upheaval in Truman's life. He lived to age 78 and died in 1913. All of his children lived long lives except Nellie, who died at 35. The others averaged out to over 78; Clem lived to be the oldest-passing on at age 90 in 1955. Reading of the trauma that went on in these families' lives reminds one of Elizabeth Akers Allen's poem: Rock Me to Sleep Backward, turn backward, O Time in your flight, Make me a child again, just for tonight! Mother, come back from the echoless shore, Take me again to your heart as of yore; Kiss from my forehead the furrows of care, Smooth a few silver threads out of my hair; Over my slumbers your loving watch keep;-- Rock me to sleep, Mother, - rock me to sleep! I am so weary of toil and of tears; Toil without recompense, Tears all in vain; Take them, and give me my childhood again! I have grown weary of dust and decay, - Weary of flinging my soul wealth away; Weary of sowing for others to reap; - Rock me to sleep, Mother, - rock me to sleep! Elizabeth Akers Allen's poem, "Rock Me to Sleep" 3rd verse Tired of the follow, the base, the untrue, Mother, O Mother, my heart calls for you! Many a summer the grass has grown green, Blossomed and faded, our faces between; Yet with strong yearning and passionate pain, Long I tonight for your presence again. Come from the silence so long and so deep; - Rock me to sleep, Mother, - rock me to sleep! Over my heart in the days that are flown, No love like mother love ever has shown; No other worship abides and endures, Faithful, unselfish, and patient like yours; None like a mother can charm away pain From the sick soul, and the world-weary brain, Title A name given to the resource I-DENTITY (p. 37) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/83ac7fd53847c343825d767c84f8b863.jpg ebe55ce4dbd6ed63a12f9ea500855242 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Come let your brown hair, just lighted with gold; Fall on your shoulders again, as of old; Let it drop over my forehead tonight, Shading my faint eyes away from the light; For with its sunny edged shadows once more, Happily will throng the sweet visions of yore; Lovingly, softly, its bright billows sweep; - Rock me to sleep, Mother, - rock me to sleep! Mother, dear Mother, the years have been long Since I last listened your lullaby song; Sing, then unto my soul it shall seem Womanhood's years have been only a dream; Clasped to your heart in a loving embrace, With your light lashes just sweeping my face, Never hereafter to wake or to weep; - Rock me to sleep, Mother, - rock me to sleep! This poem was found in McGuffey's Fifth Reader Revised. It is familiar to the scholars of that era. Many committed it to memory. The data on the Truman Longshore line was supplied mostly by Harold Longshore, son of Homer, and his mother, Bessie, who live in Wapello, Iowa. They have come to the Longshore reunions throughout the years whenever possible and every year recently. They have contributed greatly to the over-all effort to "keep in touch".

Description An account of the resource [page 43] [corresponds to page 42 of I-DENTITY] Line of Truman Longshore, son of Cyrus continued _________________________________________________________________ The Longshore train comes back to its Ohio source for a time and visits with the third son of Truman's, Clem Longshore. Depot - Sunbury, Ohio and nearby areas. Clem's three sons all live rural route Sunbury and their children have about all settled nearby. Clem Longshore was born in Ohio; at age 16, he came back from Illinois with his family as the result of his stepmother, Lucretia's death. He lived with his Uncle Warner's family in Trenton twp., Delaware County and worked on the farm there. Later he purchased the farm and remained there the rest of his 90 years. The farm is now owned and operated by his son, Lester, who have lived on it all of his 76 years. Clem was a slightly built man, rather short in stature. Always in good humor. He was a devoted husband caring tenderly for his wife Ella, during her invalidism several years,before her death. He was a widower for 24 years. He enjoyed traveling. His daughter-in-laws were as fond of him as his sons as he treated them with respect. His grandchildren adored him. On his 77th birthday he ice skated on the creek (in February) on his farm (this creek was and still is the recreational spot for the whole family). His grandchildren loved to fish but did not want to clean the small fish so they would give them to Grandpa and he would clean them and fry them crisp and crunch them, bones and all! Although he visited each of his sons every day, he never caused any trouble because he never interfered in their business or took sides in any disagreements. Everyone loved to see him come. When his Great grandson, Jim, was born, Clem walked out across the plowed field (in May, 1954) to where his son, John, was working and announced, "Today I am a rich man" and then told of the birth of his first great grandson (with the Longshore name). This was when he was 89 and he could still get excited over the birth of a child! He enjoyed doing favors for people and many is the time he took someone to the doctor for regular treatments or took someone on an errand. He seemed to enjoy his retirement because he could and did make himself useful. In his late years, his granddaughter, Betty and her husband, Sam Watts, lived with Clem keeping house for him and caring for him when he needed it. His life after age 16was somewhat serene and certainly more settled than his father Truman's had been.

Description An account of the resource [page 66] [corresponds to back of page 63 of I-DENTITY] EZEKIEL BROWN Ezekiel Brown was born March 13, 1760 in Orange County, New York and died April 23, 1841, in Delaware County, Ohio at the home of his daughter, Nancy Brown Leonard. He was married to Jane Smith, Feb. 26, 1786. She was born Sept. 15, 1766 and died Aug. 19, 1821. In 1808 he came to Berkshire Township and settled on land a little northeast of where Galena now is. He came from Lycoming County, PA, where he had been elected to Congress for one or two terms. In 1776 he enlisted in the Revolutionary Army and joined the forces under Washington, just after the Battle of Trenton. He participated in several engagements. Two years later, while on a furlough to visit his home, then in what is now Lycoming Co., PA, he was unfortunately captured by the Indians. The incidents, as related by his daughter, Nancy Brown Leonard, are as follows. There had been numerous Indian alarms and the neighbors had gathered at Ezekiel's father's house; a strong, hewed log cabin, which was easy of defense. Here they awaited the onset of the savages, but they did not make the attack when expected. Instead they kept secreted in the neighborhood for days until the settlers, lulled into a false sense of security, went into their homes. As soon as the savages saw their plans succeeding, they rushed in upon the unsuspecting and defenseless settlers, and commenced their work of butchery. Ezekiel's father, mother, and sister's husband were ruthlessly murdered, and himself and sister with her seven children were carried into Indian captivity. The mother was separated from her children, and the children from each other. Ezekiel was forced to pass through the forms preceding adoption into the tribe. Three times during the journey to the main town of the Cayugas, near where Scipio, N.Y. now stands, he was forced to run the gauntlet. The first time, he received a severe wound from a tomahawk. The second time, less fortunate, he received a terrible blow from a war club which felled him to the ground in a fearfully mangled condition. His life seemed ended, but he finally recovered and proceeded with his captors to their destination, where, after another trial, he passed through the fearful ordeal unharmed and was adopted by a family who had lost a son in the war. He was afterwards taken to Canada where he found his sister, and a clue to the whereabouts of her children. He managed to become employed by a trader and bought his freedom,but the ties of kindred were too strong for him to leave his sister in captivity. He at once set about securing her release and that of her children. He had secured all of her seven children but two, when one boy came up with the Indians and claimed his mother, but she told him she was not his mother. He had changed so much and was so dirty she could not own him. She asked him if he had any brothers and he said he had and told their names and said he had an uncle, Ezekiel. Then she had to own him. They now had all the children but one boy twelve years old. It was nearing the time when Ezekiel hoped to return to his friends, that he learned a party of Indians with this boy was about to start for a distant point to hunt. If this should occur, he despaired of ever seeing the child again, and determined to kidnap the boy. Calling the Indians into the trader's cabin, he treated them to liquor. When they became drunk he pushed them out and the boy in, then barred the door and waited the issue. This treatment was not relished by the savages. The resented it by kicks and more forcible attacks upon the door. There were no signs of it yielding, so they had to leave the boy behind. But the lad had become enamored with the wild life of the woods and longed to be with his Indian friends. One day while out playing he saw his opportunity and his Uncle Ezekiel saw him running with all his might to regain his friends. With sinking heart and almost in despair, he started in pursuit. The boy was recaptured and with the whole family returned in 1783 to their friends in PA., after five years of Indian captivity. Seven years later, Ezekiel Brown moved to Ohio and in 1808 to Berkshire Township. Ezekiel Brown was my grandfather and your great grandfather.

Her daughter, Eugenie Carpenter invited some folks into their home to celebrate Ida's 80th birthday. It was then the well-wishers present decided to organize an annual get-together beginning the next year, planning to have the first meeting in the home of I.N.

The reunion date later was changed to the 2nd Sunday in August. (The old-timers frowned on social activity on Sunday) The reunion has met every year since, making this the 78th one. This Reunion has been a large factor in holding the families together, forming a nucleus, sort of. Although it was always held in central Ohio, since that is the scene that the emigrators picked way back in 1808; family members in various years have come from Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Minnesota,as well as distant points in Ohio. For many years, the annual affair was held in different private homes; then in Galena Park where Charlie Longshore so faithfully reserved the tables for the picnic; then it met a few times in Mt. Vernon Municipal Park to be nearer the Mt. Vernon, Marion, and Mansfield contingent, but for the past 15 or so years, the group has voted to meet in the beautiful Centerburg Park facilities. It has shelter houses, horseshoe courts, basketball court, and playground equipment in a lush setting beside a little stream. It has been a tradition to serve ice cream in the afternoon following the business meeting. Although everyone is stuffed to the brim with the abundance of good food these excellent cooks turn out, there is always room made for this extra treat. In these days of deep freezers, et cetera, ice cream is not the thrill it once was, but yet the youngsters, who by then have run off their calories, look forward to this part of the program, and yes, even the oldsters enjoy it! Speaking of program, most likely everyone present can recall having taken part in it in one way or another. The program through the years has taken on every aspect in the entertainment field, and as one One that stands out is Bob Cline telling us "That's Good; That's Bad" well --- and Jim Longshore's tale about "No More Squoles". In this annual "talent show" there have been reminiscences by the senior members; guitar and accordian playing; trios and quartets; solos; tap dancing; patriotic readings; you name it, we've had it!

Perhaps she was not number eight in the "line-up" but it seems best to put her in that sequence, since no date has been found by this compiler. ______________________________________________________________________ Note - This completes the tabulations of the David and Elizabeth (Warner) Longshore line by this compiler. Every effort has been made to keep the lines straight but if some should have crossed, it is because sometimes there were so many Davids, Charles', et cetera, most without benefit of I, II, Sr., Jr., or whatever. It was the custom to have namesakes in the early days, more then than now, and so babies were named not only after parents and grandparents but also after aunts, uncles, etc., so again a confusion develops - and there's no one to ask in most instances! Also much of this information has been gathered via telephone so again there is a greater margin for error in that type communication. And I may as well admit it - sometimes I "goof" just for no reason at all! Seriously though, all of this compiling has been done with the best of Intentions, and no slights or errors intended. So now, you know "who's who" among the Longshores! -Maxine Title A name given to the resource I-DENTITY (p. 80) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/3aac03e36e9267794c4573c73de34006.jpg b61df6f434744c3d81b9d8efa9dc9765 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource [page 82] [corresponds to unnumbered page 79 of I-DENTITY] Additional Longshore Information by Judy (Longshore) Campbell David Longshore (I) lived in Middletown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. In the 1800 Bucks County Census, he is listed with the unmarried men. He and Elizabeth Weaber were married by Isaac Hicks, J.P. on January 20, 1802 in Middletown Twp., Pennsylvania. Elizabeth is listed as a spinster. (She was 19). Her name on almost all Genealogical records (including, LDS records) is Warner. Her mother's maiden name was Warner and I believe that she took that as her own maiden name after her marriage. The tombstone of David Longshore says that he came to Ohio in 1806. It also states that he was 79 years 9 months 8 days old. Later census records say that he came from Pennsylvania. After his wife Elizabeth (Warner) died on August 8, 1840 he married Elisabeth (Betsy) Benton on June 20th 1842. Betsy and her husband lived on a farm next to the Longshores. David and his brother, Euclydus bought land together in 1811 and David lived in the same place the rest of his life.

The Family of David Longshore, Jr. The 7th child of David (1) There is more to be told of this family than will be told here. David, Jr. lived with his parents. The rules by which he would take care of them in their old age and thereby inherit their land was written in deed form. After the death of David Sr., David, Jr. sued all his brothers and sisters for the right to the land. In this suit is evidence that Rachel Squires is a sister of this Longshore family. David Jr, sues her children, since she was already dead. David Jr. served in the Civil War. His records show that he enlisted at the end of the War so he wasn't in very long. He served with an Ohio group. David was born about 1822 d 9/5/1871 and on 4/13/1848 married Sarah Ellen Shannon.
