Dear Jim, My 2 ggrandmother Margaret Small was born in Ohio ca 1817 and died in Montgomery Co Ohio in 1857. She married William Schenck on 30 November 1837 in Montgomery Co. Ohio.

I need help identifying her parents.

On the 1820 Montgomery Co. Ohio census, the following Smalls were listed. Andrew Small Sr. and his sons Andrew, Daniel, James, John and also there was a Nicholas Small.

I have some history on the Andrew Small Sr. line. Some info came from their family Bible which is quoted in "A Genealogical Index of Miami Valley Ohio Pioneers" by Lindsay Brien 1970

He was born in Scotland 17 Feb 1756.( "Abstracts of Rev War Pension Files" says York Co. Pa. ??) He emigrated to Pa. in 1768. He enlisted from Cumberland Co. served in the Pa. line under Col. Richard Montgomery. In 1795, he and his family moved to Warren Co. Ohio area, then Montgomery Co Ohio., and finally Miami Co. Ohio. He died 1 March 1840 in Miami Co. He was married in 1785 to Margaret Long dob 1765 in Pa. -dod 12 April 1823 Warren Co. Ohio

. They had the following children:

History of The Life

Of

Andrew Small

Andrew Small was born in Scotland on. Feb. 17, 1756, of Scotch Presbyterian parentage. He, with his brother James, came to the United States, and settled in Hanover Township, near Harrisburg ,Pa., where they remained until the Revolutionary War broke out, when Andrew enlisted under General Richard Montgomery, he being just 18 years of age , at the time. He served all through the war, being in some of the worst engagements, was with Montgomery when he scaled the heights of Abraham, at Quebec, on December 31, 1775 and was with Washington at Valley Forge during the awful winter when Washingtons army had so little" to eat, and less to wear. It is said that Andrew Small often told how, during that siege at Vallev Forge, he had taken the leather from his boots and cooked it in various ways that he might have sufficient nourishment to keep the body together.

After the close of the war, Mr. Small and his family decided to go West, and in 1795 they packed their belongings in wagons, and the start was made for the West. When they reached Bedford Fort, which is now Pittsburgh, Pa., the horses were sold and the family embarked with their belongings, on a flat boat bound down the Ohio River. The river at the time was very low, and the men folk had to tow the boat until they were part of the way, when the river began to rise, caused by some heavey rains up the valley, and the river became such a torrent

that it nearly capsized their boat and made landing very difficult; but finally they succeeded in making a landing at Columbia near Cincinnati. It was told that when the landing was made, Mr. Small called the entire group of folks together and prayer was held, using a large white log as an alter. Here it was that thanks were given unto God for his safe keeping them during their journey, and asking his continued guidance and safe keeping as they traversed this strange land.

After a years rest, under the protection of Fort Washington, Mr. Small and his family started up the Great Miami river, following a surveying party that had blazed a trail along this river, using the rude cabins for the shelter of his family, that these survyors had abandoned, until they reached Clear Creek, in Franklin Township, Warren County, where Mr. Small settled upon a section of land.

Mr. Small cultivated this section of land for several years until he took up school teaching he being the first school teacher in Warren County.

Mrs. Small, his wife , not being a very robust woman, it fell to the lot of the children to work the farm, with such help as could be secured, which consisted of two men who were paid the sum of twelve and one-half cents each day.

God blessed this home with six girls and three boys, Mary, Catherine, Agnes, Susannah, Jane, Elizabeth, Daniel, Andrew, and John.

The clothing for these boys and girls were made from homespun, and the shoes from dear skins, and it is told that they wore out their shoes so fast, that sometimes it was impossible to keep them all shod, and upon one occasion, the son James, rather than stay in the house, went out during the winter and slid on the ice in his bare feet.

Andrew Small lived to the age of 84 years, passing from this life to the great beyond, on March 1st 1840. He was buried beside his beloved wife, in the cemetery in Piqua, located on Wood Street, between Wayne and Downing Streets, where they rested until that cemetery was condemmed, when their remains were removed to the beautiful Forrest Hill Cemetery, at Piqua, Ohio, where they now rest.

John Small, retired famer, Sec 23; P. O. Piqua; was born in Warren Co., Ohio, June 16, 1801, and is a son of Andrew Small, who was born in Scotland Feb 17, 1756, where he spend his boyhood days in the Scotch school, and, at the age of 12 years, came with his parents to Pennsylvania, where they located in 1868; there they lived and died; and Andrew, about 1785, in Pennsylvania, married Margaret Long, who was a native of that state, born about 1765 and died in Warren Co. April 12, 1823, and he died March 1, 1840. They had nine children, of whom three are yet living; the oldest sister, who now lives on the old home farm in Warren Co., Ohio, at an advanced age; one brother in Shelby co., Ohio, also quite old, and John, who came to this county in 1833, and settled in the woods, on a part of what is now known as the Madison Millhouse farm, and a part of what is today known as the James Patterson farm. this he improved from its wild condition to a good degree of cultivation; in 1855, he sold it and bought his present farm of 80 acres where he has since resided. Mr. Small has in his life been a remarkable hunter of deer, and such other kinds of game as might be found in the regions where he traversed. The first inducement for him to go to some hunting-point was to regain his health, which he did through the advice of his family physician; he was to drink the blood of the deer, and since that period, which as been a number of years, he has taken a hunt each autumn until the last two; sometimes to the mountains of this state and several times to Minnesota; even now, though nearly fourscore years of age, he takes a walk of four or five miles, with his gun, every suitable day, and enjoys good eyesight and health.

His marriage with Miss Margaret K. Betson, was celebrated in Montgomery Co., Ohio, on Sept. 26, 1822; she was born in New Jersey Nov. 13, 1801, and when but about 11 months old, her parents came to Ohio; they were both natives of New Jersey; the father was born in 1779, and died at the age of 68; the mother was born about 1785 and died at the age of 73. Mr. Small and wife have had ten children, viz, John B. born Aug 9, 1823, died 1827; Andrew L., born July 28, 1825, died Dec. 4, 1875; Martha A., born Dec 1, 1827; Daniel P., Dec 3, 1829, died Oct. 17, 1868; David B., born Nov. 3, 1832; James T., Jan 4, 1836; Francis M., Oct 26, 1838; John Betson, Jan 9, 1841, died June 26, 1879; Mary M. born Sept 23, 1845; Lewis C., Jan 13, 1848. Jan 1, 1880, about 10 a.m. on looking through their window, they beheld, with utter surprise, carriages, buggies, etc. almost at their door, which conveyances were loaded with their children, relatives, friends and neighbors from far and near, each one coming with their basket well filled with rich and luscious eatables, and soon a table was erected, on which were placed the contents of the baskets, and about the proper hour for refreshment the table was surrounded. Mr. and Mrs. Small have trod the happy pathway of married life for nearly three-score years, and are now living a retired life in their quiet home, which is partly occupied by David B., their son, who, on May 13, 1859 married Ellen Conklin. May they live and see many more happy days together is the wish of the writer.
