Notes

Note: Portrait and biographical record of Allen and Van Wert Counties Frederick Markley a substantial farmer of Jackson Twp, Van Wert Co, Ohio, was born March 11, 1835, in York County, Pa, of German stock. Samuel Markley, his father, was also a native of York county, was left an orphan in childhood, was a wheelwright by trade, and married in York county, Marillas Bowers, the union resulting in the birth of five children--John, Frederick, Henry, Samuel, and Elizabeth, all of whom reached maturity. The father, after marriage, lived on the Bowers farm until is demise in the faith of the Lutheran church, and in politics was a republican. Two of his sons, Frederick and Samuel, served in a Pennsylvania regiment during the Civil war, and both were honorably discharged--but his glorious record the father never lived to be cognizant of, as his death occurred in 1861, at the age of about fifty-six years. Frederick Markley, whose name introduces this biography, was taught the house-carpentering trade, but, inspired by the patriotic sentiment prevalent in his early manhood, enlisted in defense of the flag of his native land and was enrolled at Carlisle, Pa., October 16, 1862 to serve nine months, receiving an honorable discharge at Gettysburg, July 28, 1863, and after a short sojourn on the home farm he re-enlisted this time in Company C, One Hundred and First Pennsylvania infantry--was enrolled in March 1864, and again honorably discharged at New Berne, N.C., June 25, 1865, the war having closed. Following is the list of engagement in which he took part: 1/30/1863, Deserted House, near Suffolk, VA; 4/14/1963, skirmishes on Jonestown Rd, near Suffolk; 5/14/1863, Beaver Dam, near Franklin, VA; 5/16/1963, Carsville, and afterward in skirmishes winding up in N.C. and Roanoke, VA. Directly after the war Mr. Markley located in Putnam county, Ohio, and engaged in wagon-making in Kalida where his marriage took place, Feb. 10, 1867, to Abigail Goodman, a native of Franklin county, Ohio a daughter of Jesse Goodman of English descent. Mr. and Mrs. Markley lived a year in Kalida and then two years in Van Wert city, then traded his town property for forty acres south of Van Wert and in 1878 came to his present farm of eight acres in the woods. In the interval, February 27, 1872, his wife died on the first far, the mother of three children: Aaron C., who resides in Lima; Albert, on the home farm and Flora who died at the ago of three years. January 30, 1873, Mr. Markley married at Middlepoint, Van Wert county, Mrs. Elizabeth Mullen, who was born in Delaware county, Ohio, September 26, 1843, and was a widow of Thomas Mullen. This lady bore the maiden name of Longwell, daughter of George and Mary A. (Sheets) Longwell. George Longwell was born in Ohio, of Irish parentage, was married in Delaware county, Ohio and became the father of ten children: Henrietta, Lucretia, Elizabeth, Kate, Henry, Catherine, Martha, Albert, Mary E., and Charles and Lucy, twins. Mr. Longwell came to Van Wert county in 1851 and settled on Dog Creek, Jackson township in the wild woods, with his nearest neighbors two miles distant of the south, and no settlement at the north except in the extreme edge of the township. This old pioneer had one son, Henry, who served three years in an Ohio regiment during the late Civil war, and is own death took place on the farm at the age of about seventy-eight years. To the union of Mr. and Mrs. Markley have been born four children: Samuel H., Mary E., Louise J. and Isom. Mr. Markley, aided by his faithful wife and children, cleared up as comfortable a home as there is in the township, and being a thoroughly practical farmer, is now reaping a golden harvest that compensates him for his past years of toil and hardships. In politics Mr. Markley is a republican;Mr. Markley is a consistent member of the Lutheran church, and his wife of the Methodist congregation. As a soldier or subject has done has share for his country bravely and faithfully, and as a citizen and neighbor he performs his duty intelligently and well, winning the respect of all with whom he comes in contact."
