Narrative

[Excerpt from "John J. Bolender" biographical article, from History of Clermont and Brown Counties, Ohio (1913), pp739-740.]

Walter and Elizabeth Leach moved to Mason county, Kentucky, and in 1816 came to Brown county, Ohio, buying a farm at Georgetown.

[...]

Mrs. Hill's father, Walter Leach, was a fine man, very handy at most kinds of work, and was able to do all kinds of odd jobs, such as making baskets, etc. He was a man of good principles and highly regarded. He was born in Maryland, December 28, 1773, moved to Kentucky with his parents, and married Elizabeth Francis, daughter of Thomas and Tabitha Francis, who was born in New Jersey in 1784 and died in 1843. He built a fine two-story house after locating near Georgetown, Ohio in 1816, as before mentioned, and this old home, about two and one-half miles from the town, is still occupied.
