Notes for JASPER FOLEY:

The Tombstone inscription of Jasper  Foley shows he died 5 Dec 1870, age 67 yr, 11 mo., 4 days from which his birthdate is determined to be Jan 01, 1803.

 

The Foley family came to Ohio between 1850 and 1860.  Jasper Foley is listed on the 1860 Federal Census as being Head of Household (page 31), living in Moorefield Twp, Clark Co. OH.  He was listed on the 1830 (pg 21), and 1850 (pg 205) Census living in Hampshire Co., VA.  The 1840 Census listed him in Hardy County, VA (pg 128).

In 1830, his household listed 2 males, 2 females (pg 21) ...Same page as Green Foley (1 male, 6 fem)

 2 Females

 (This researcher believes one of the females would have been his mother, Catherine as she was a widow by 1830 and Jasper had only one son by 1830 - Frederick)

 

In 1840, his household listed 2 males, 3 females(Hampshire Co., VA Census)

Notes for J. WILLIAM FOLEY:

The parentage of J. William Foley was obtained from the IGI, patron submitted information by a Dorothy Hollingsworth whose files tend to agree with this researcher, however, there was no J. William Foley listed on the 1850 Census with the Jasper Foley family.  The 1840 Census for Jasper shows 2 males and 3 females.  The two males are already accounted for in Jasper and Frederick. 

 

This researcher believes that the J. William Foley listed here is the child of one of the other Foleys in Clark County.  I am leaving this name on this record so that further investigation can be made.

From "20th Century History of Springfield and Clark County" by Wm. Rockel(pub 1907) pg 298:

 

The German Baptist Church was organized as early as 1816 by Elder Christian Frantz, the first elder of this locality.  This church is located south of Northampton.  The congregation is in a large and flourishing condition.  It is known as a Dunkard organization.  Aaron Frantz is the present pastor.

 

Sometime about 1885 there was a division in this church and the conservatives built a church in the southeast part of the township.  Henry Dresher, James Hansborough, David Leatherman, et al., were instrumental in this movement.  Jacob Sandy and Louis Pfeiffer are ministers." 

 

The Pietists (also called "Dunkards") were an "Anabaptist" group, meaning they did not believe in infant baptism (other Anabaptist groups include the modern Baptists and the various Mennonite churches).

Biography of JOHN W. LEATHERMAN

"History of Springfield and Clark County, Ohio"

by Wm. M. Rockel

Pub. 1908

Pg 977

 

John W. Leatherman, on of German Township's representative agrculturists, resides on his well cultivated farm of sixty acres, which is situated on the Springfield-Northampton Turnpike Road, about four miles northwest of Springfield.  He was born in Hampshire County, West Virginia, June 26 1853, and is a son of Charles and Catherine (Shoskey)* Leatherman.

 

The parents of Mr. Leatherman came from West Virginia to Clark County, Ohio, when he was eighteen months old, and settled on a farm about nine miles northeast of Springfield on the old Major Hunt place.  The father rented that farm for two years and then moved to the neighboring one belonging to Nathan Trotter, which he rented for ten years, moving from there to one on the Yellow Springs Turnpike.  This farm belonged to John Perrin, and one year later they moved to a farm two miles north of Clifton, and from there a year afterward to the James Anderson farm, and thence to Dr. Marquart's farm near Osborn, on which they lived for eight years.  Their next move was to the John Harris farm, near Dayton, where the mother died.  The father and sons had worked the various farms up to this time, but from that time on up to the time of his marrige, John W. Leatherman worked by the month.  After that event he rented a farm in Pike Township, on which he lived for five years, and in 1886 he bought and moved on to his present farm, which he has continued to improve up to the time of this writing.  He has done a large amount of tiling and fencing and, some clearing, and has remodeled the residence, and in 1904 he built a new barn, the dimensions of which are 40 by 50 feet.  He has taken an interest in his surroundings, and his improvments each year added value to his place.

 

In 1881 Mr. Leatherman married Mary E. Dresher, a daughter of Nicholas and Margaret (Siefreid) Dresher, who was born south of Springfield, in Clark County.  Their oldest child died in infancy.  The survivors all are at home, namely:  Otho, Rolland, and Raymond, twins, and Irven.  Mr. and Mrs. Leatherman are members of the German Baptist Church.

34.  CHARLES W.5 FOLEY (FREDERICK4, CATHERINE3 LEATHERMAN, NICHOLAS2, NICHOLAS1)94,95,96 was born 20 Mar 1863 in Moorefield Twp, Clark Co., OH97,98, and died 31 Oct 1937 in Minneapolis,  Minnesota99,100,101.  He married (1) ANNA E.

Notes for CHARLES W. FOLEY:

From Barbara Lou Foley Martin's Memoirs speaking of her Paternal Grandfather,Ch arles Foley,was a preacher.  His forebearers emigrated to the U.S. from Ireland and settled in West Virginia, where a schism developed in religious beliefs. Half the Foleys stayed in west Virginia, Catholics.  The other half (our half, that is) traveled to Ohio, where Charles Foley became a Baptist preacher.  He attended Moody Bible School (now College, I think) in Minnesota and later was a member of the faculty there.  He was not a highly educated man, but apparently was regarded with some esteem as a man of the cloth.  They all lived, variously , in Ohio, Minnesota and, lastly, North Dakota.

 

NOTE (by Janie Martin Whitty).  Barbara Lou was mistaken that Charles Foley "was not a highly educated man" as his obituary lists him as Rev. Dr. Charles W. Foley.

 

From Obituary of Charles W. Foley , published Springfield News, Sunday November 7:  Burial was made in Minneapolis, Minn. (See scrapbook for full copy).

 

According to the 1880 Census, Charles, age 17, was attending school.  The family was living in Moorefield Twp, Clark Co., OH
