bulletWilliam Foulks(2) was born on Jun 10 1768 in Virginia. He died on Sep 3 1832 in Richland County, Ohio. He was buried in Presbyterian Cemetery, BloomingGrove Township, Richland County, Oho. Residence: Founder, around 1800, of Foulkstown, also known as West Union, popularly called Nineva (sin city), now known as Calcuttta. William Foulkes came from Pennsylvania and purchased 200 acres on the site of Calcutta. Donated land about 1810 for Longs Run Presbyterian Church. Church was named for original location along Longs Run. Original Layout of town by Micael Shirtz and William Foulks. Town was later known as Foulkstown, based on the first brick house built in 1802 by William Foulks. Alex NcCoy, Phil. Rauch and a Peter Foulks were neighbors abt.1800. Ref: Combined Atlas of 1870 and 1902, History of Columbiana Co. Ohio.

Biography: Ref: Old Landmarks of Canton and Stark County, Ohio by Danner. Willaim Foulks grew up in Beaver County, Pa. during and after the Revolutionary War. He laid claim to 400 acres of valuable land and was intending to make it his home when a law (Land Act of 1792) was enacted requiring all holders of real estate to perfect their titles to the same. Mr.Foulks did not experience any difficulty as his claim was perfectly valid, but a number of unscrupulous speculators organized (The Pennsylvania Population Company) for the purpose of defrauding settlers out of their holdings, instituted proceedings against him, his place being the most fertile farms in the county.

Compelled to defend his rights, he contested the matter in several law suits which were tried in Phildelphia and each time received a favorable verdict. The land sharks resisted in their persecutions causing such expenses for him that he well-high improvished his family. The federal circuit court following a precedent established by the United States Supreme Court, had decided for the plaintiff and ejection suit brought by the land company against William Foulkes, who had occupied his claim in Beaver County for seventeen years. When a posse of men led by the deputy marshal attempted to dispossess Foulkes, a group of his neighbors fired on the men and one, James Hamilton, was killed. Because of his threat to the marshall and the fact that the shooting occurred on his property, Foulkes was under suspicion for murder.

But facts pointed to another suspect, Nathaniel Eakin.(Ref:"The Planting of Civilization in Western Pennsylvania by Solon J. Buck and Elizabeth Hawthorn Buck, 1939). So it was then that William Foulks moved on to Ohio and built the first Log cabin on the present site of New Lisbon in 1802. Ref; History of Columbiana Co, Ohio,1879.
