Notes for ASA SHERWIN:
My line is Asa Sherwin b. abt 1785 md. to Mahala ??? and died 1817 in Connecticut Norman b. 1807
d.1897 in Kansas md to Caroline Atkinson Charles Harvey Sherwin b. 1848 Stanstead Canada, d. 1933 CA
md to Lenora H. Abbott. Supposedly Asa was born in New England, possibly Vermont, but do not know
for sure. Norman and family was supposed to have moved to Canada upon his father's death and they were
raised there by relatives. Norman and his family then moved to Iowa to Bremer Co. and. 1852, stayed there
abt 14 yrs then moved to Beloit, Kansas where he died. Norman's brothers names are Erastus and Achimes.
"KARLA COLLINSWORTH"
I have recently uncovered proof that Asa did not marry a Mahala ?? but instead married an Abigail
Kimpton on 20 mar 1806 in Newport, VT. Abigail Sherwin md a Josiah Doloff according to "History of
Stanstead Co." by Fuller, settled in Fitch Bay and had several children. Marriage date was not given but
the birthdate of their first child was 13 sep 1819. I found a Church record for the marriage of David
Candlish and Mahaly Sherwin who was under age and her guardian Alpheus Kimpton, her uncle, signed for
her because her father was dead. So this proved that Abigail Kimpton Sherwin was her mother.

================================================
The Pioneer Families of Cleveland: On the morning of a bitter winter day in February, 1818, a large sleigh
drawn by two farm horses moved briskly in a south-western direction from Middlebury, Vermont, a town
but a few miles east of the New York state line, and about half-way between lakes Champlain and George.
The seat of this sleigh was occupied by Ahimaz Sherwin, Jr., 26 years of age, his young wife Hannah Swan
Sherwin, and their little daughter Lucy but a few months old. The back of the sleigh was piled high with
household furniture, bedding, and clothing. The family had started in mid-winter on a ride of 500 miles, at
least half of which led through a trackless wilderness. But, aside from the weather, traveling at this time of
year was far easier than through the summer months. A sleigh moved over the snow more smoothly and
with less jolting than a wagon, also over ice-bound lakes and rivers that otherwise would have to be forded
or avoided.
The sleighing was excellent all the way, but the weather very severe; the thermometer for ten days of the
trip was below zero. Their food and shelter for the night was ever uncertain, and a source of anxiety, for it
depended upon little country taverns, or upon the hospitality of isolated farm-houses. It is ever a mystery to
the woman of today how a mother managed to care for a babe and keep it warm on such a long, cold
journey. The case of little Lucy Sherwin was not exceptional. Hundreds of very young children
accompanied their parents to the wilds of Ohio when the journey was undertaken in the winter or early
spring with the frost yet in the air, and snow still covering the ground. Furthermore, instances have been
given where the pioneer party waited for an expected addition of a little stranger in a family, and then
started on a trip two weeks after its arrival.
The Sherwins made the distance between Buffalo and Dunkirk on the frozen shores of Lake Erie, and, early
in the evening of one day, their sleigh broke through the ice, thoroughly drenching its occupants. With their
clothes frozen upon them, they had to continue their journey until a place was reached in which they could
spend the night.
The deep-seated cold that resulted from this mishap eventually undermined the constitution of the intrepid
wife and mother, and although she lived several years after reaching Cleveland she never was again well,
and died leaving three young children.
The journey ended March 1st--18 days from the time it was started. No accommodation for them and their
horses could be secured in the small village of Cleveland, and they had to turn around again and go back as
far as Job Doan's tavern at Doan's Corners.
Luckily for Mr. Sherwin, Richard Blinn had begun to build a new house on his farm south of Doan's
Corners, and on the road to Newburgh. He hired Mr. Sherwin to do the carpenter work on it, the Sherwins,
mean-while, living with the Blinn family. By the last of August, the house was finished, and the wages due
Mr. Sherwin enabled him to return to Vermont and bring on his parents to share his pioneer home. They
were Ahimaaz Sherwin, Sr., who had served his country in the War of the American Revolution, and Ruth
Day Sherwin, his wife. They had been married 38 years, had had a family of ten children, and were both
nearly 60 years of age when they left their Vermont home to seek another in the woods east of Fairmount
Street. Ahimaaz and Ruth Sherwin were married in 1780. Their children: Asa Sherwin, b. 1781; married,
had two children. He died 1817. Sarah Sherwin, b. 1783; m. Henry Sumner. She died 1827. Ruth
Sherwin, b. 1785; m. Levi Billings. She died 1830. He married 2nd, Sophia Cody. Betsey Sherwin, b.
1787; m. 1st, (???) Nutting; 2nd, (???). Achsa Sherwin, b. 1789; m. John Gardner. Ahimaaz Sherwin,
Jr., b. 1792; m. 1st, Hannah Swan; 2nd, Sarah M. King. Poplin Sherwin, b. 1794; m. Jesse Harris. She
died 1830. Delphia Sherwin, b. 1796; m. William Hudson. She died 1880. Phila Sherwin, b. 1798; m.
Andrew Logan, editor of "Davenport, Iowa, News." Benjamin Sherwin, b, 1801; died young.
It will be noticed, by the above, that there were seven married daughters in the family. Some of these were
wives before coming to Ohio, others were married in Cleveland, but all lived here, and three of them died
within 12 years of their arrival and were buried here, Sarah in 1827, Ruth and Poplin in 1830. Achsa
Sherwin, as the wife of John Gardner, a well-known Cleveland merchant, spent the rest of a long life in
Cleveland. Ahimaaz Sherwin, Jr., his parents, and two of his sisters made the trip from Vermont to
Cleveland in the early autumn of 1818, with two horses and a wagon. When the party reached Buffalo, it
divided, the elderly couple continuing their journey by team, and the son and daughters by the lake. They
took passage on the sloop Huntington, commanded by Capt. Day of Black River. Storms made it a long and
perilous trip that lasted a week, and they were very glad to climb down out of the vessel into a lighter that
came out from Cleveland to take them into the river. It landed them at the foot of Superior Street hill.
It is said that they took the "Foot & Walker" line to reach Doan's Corners, their objective point, over four
miles distant. But it was an interesting walk that led through woods ablaze with autumnal tints, and the air
filled with the sound of dropping nuts. They reached Doan's Corners just as their parents drove in from the
east.
Ahimaaz Sherwin, Jr., purchased 15 acres of Judge John H. Strong on the corner of Euclid Ave. and East
96th Street, the site of the present Congregational Church, where he built a house in which his parents lived
until their death. He also built a home for himself on the Blinn farm, and afterward one on Fairmount street.
He was a skilled carpenter, and in the course of his long and useful life in the city, finished the interiors of
many fine houses and hotels, within the former boundaries of Cleveland.
The year 1827 was one of great sorrow to the Sherwin family. A malignant fever raged in Cleveland and
the surrounding countryside. Whole families were ill in bed unattended, and there was great mortality in
consequence. Mrs. Sherwin, Jr., Sarah Sherwin Sumner, and Jesse Harris, husband of Poplin Sherwin, died
within a few days of each other. Ahimaaz Sherwin, Sr., in writing to Vermont relatives soon afterward,
said--
"Every one of our family was sick, and no one to care for them. For the whole neighborhood was in the
same situation. I had 16 children and grandchildren all sick at once."
The children of Ahimaaz, Jr., and Hannah Swan Sherwin: Lucy Sherwin, b. 1818; m. David Carleton;
removed to Elkhart, Ind. Harriet Sherwin, b. 1820; m. Philip Cody of Cleveland. Franklin Tyler
Sherwin, m. 1st, Fanny Riddle, a widow; 2nd, Elisabeth Arnold.
In 1828, Ahimaaz Sherwin, Jr., married 2nd, Sarah M. King of Livingston Co., N. Y., and daughter of
Joseph King, a pioneer. The children of Ahimaaz, Jr., and Sarah King Sherwin: Caroline M. Sherwin, m.
Benjamin Burke; 2nd, her cousin Sherwin Logan. Mary Sherwin, m. John Handley, son of Jonathan
Handley. Sarah P. Sherwin, m. Edwin G. Rose, formerly of Norwalk, Ohio. Ruth Day Sherwin, m.
Eugene Coleman. She died in Cleveland. A daughter resides in Denver, Col. Ida A. Sherwin, m. 1st, C. L.
Beckwith; 2nd, Elisha Nichols.
Ahimaaz Sherwin, Jr., died 1881, and Sarah M. King Sherwin five years later, at the residence of her
daughter, Mrs. John Handley. Mrs. Sarah Sherwin was an earnest worker in the East End Methodist
Church.
A costly cathedral-glass window adorns the western wall of the beautiful Euclid Avenue Christian Church.
It was erected in memory of Delphia Sherwin, wife of William Hudson, and daughter of Ahimaaz and Ruth
Day Sherwin. She died at the age of 84 years, and for many years had been a prominent and active worker
in this church society.

September 18, 1798 in Winchendon, Worcester Co., MA, and died 1864 in Davenport, IA. She married
ANDREW LOGAN March 02, 1820 in Cleveland, Cuyahoga Co., OH.
Notes for ANDREW LOGAN:
Pioneer Families of Cleveland: In 1818, upon the south-west corner of the Public Square and Superior
Street, a site now occupied by Marshall's drug-store, there stood a small frame-building used as a book-
store and a doctor's office. Between that store and Seneca street, now West 3rd, there was no other building
save one near the corner of Seneca that had been constructed for weighing hay. It was a quaint little
structure, only 10x20 feet, and one story high. The front of the roof had been built to project a little more
than the width of a wagon, and from this hung four stout log-chains which were fastened to the wheels of
the vehicle to be weighed, which was then raised from the ground with the help of a long heavy beam used
as a lever. In this crude place was started the first newspaper published in the city of Cleveland, on the
same street and but a short walk from the present great printing establishments of the Cleveland Leader and
the Cleveland Plain Dealer, each representing a fortune and housed in many-storied and costly buildings of
its own. This first newspaper venture was made by Andrew Logan, an ambitious young printer and future
editor. He is said to have resembled John A. Logan of the Civil War, who was of medium height, stockily
built, and of swarthy complexion, and like the late general, he claimed descent from Logan, the noted
Mingo chief.
Andrew Logan brought his type from Beaver, Pa., which may have been his home, for a time at least. The
type was much worn, so much so that some of the letters made almost illegible impressions. But he started
his newspaper July 31, 1818, under the pretentious title, "The Cleveland Gazette and Commercial
Advertiser." A copy of it is preserved in the Western Reserve Historical Library, and it will be found a very
creditable sheet. The big beam that served as a lever for the weighing apparatus ran nearly through the
length of the room, and young Logan must have had to step over or around it many times a day, but as he
was also official "weigher" for the town, the obstruction, like his type, was a means of livelihood. The
Cleveland Weekly Herald, starting a year later with far better equipment, must have discouraged the young
printer from further effort to make ends meet, and within a few months following its first issue, he ceased
the publication of his own paper. To his position as weigher was added that of "village inspector," and he
remained in or near town several years after the close of his printing establishment. Meanwhile, he had
married Phila Sherwin, daughter of Amahaaz and Ruth Day Sherwin, who had come to Cleveland in the
fall of 1818, from Middleburg, Vt., in company with her parents.
The indifference of descendants has made it difficult to gain correct information concerning Andrew
Logan's subsequent life. But this much has been gleaned, that he removed to Iowa, continued in the printing
and publishing business, and for many years was the editor of the Davenport News. Only the names of two
children have been secured, Dr. Augustus Rodney Logan, who died in Mexico, 68 years of age, and
Sherwin Logan, who married his cousin Caroline Sherwin. She was the daughter of Ahimaaz Sherwin, Jr.,
and born in this city where she grew to womanhood.
