Notes
a. Note:   "The Daily Herald, Delphos, Ohio, 3 Oct, 1898 Last Thursday afternoon, about five o'clock, J.O Armstrong, one of the trustees of Washington township, met with a painful accident by breaking his right ankle. He, with a Gang of men, were grading the road along Elmer Sommers' farm, about three miles south of Middle Point, and were just putting on the finishing touches. Huckster Downing came along and Mr. Armstrong was bent on securing some candy and was in the act of climbing into the wagon while it was standing near by and the driver was busy with a farmer. Just then Downing whipped up the mules and Armstrong's foot slipped off the hub into the wheel, causing a severe break in the ankle. The grit of the patient held out well and he was taken to Middle Point in a big wagon to secure the attention of a surgeon. Mr. Armstrong was in Delphos Saturday." from "History of Van Wert and Representative Citizens" JOHN OSCAR ARMSTRONG, whose death occurred November 15, 1901, was for many years one of the well known and representative farmers of Washington township, and was engaged in operating a thoroughly developed and finely improved farm in section 18. Mr. Armstrong was born in a log cabin on the farm now occupied by his widow, being a son of Thomas and Sarah Ann (Saum) Armstrong. He was reared in Washington township, and obtained his education in the district schools of the vicinity. Throughout his early manhood he assisted on his father's farm, and during his entire later life engaged in agricultural pursuits on the old homestead farm. The Armstrong family was at one time among the largest land owners of Washington township, Thomas Armstrong, father of our subject, having at one time between 300 and 400 acres of land. On January 25, 1874, John O. Armstrong was married to Christina Foster, a daughter of John and Mary (Bowers) Foster. John Foster was born and raised in Perry County, where his father (George Foster) was one of the pioneer farmers. Mrs. Christina Armstrong was born in Perry County, Ohio, on November 1, 1853, and in 1866, when 13 years old, came to Van Wert County with her parents, who settled on a farm of 80 acres, three miles west of Middlepoint, Ridge Township. Her father died the following year; her mother lived until September, 1887. Mr. and Mrs. John Foster had the following eight children : Catherine, Daniel and Adam, who died during infancy; Mary, who married Albert Moore, of Ridge township; Elizabeth, who died aged 23 years ; Samuel, who married Hannah Frey, of Xenia, Ohio, where the couple now live; Christina, widow of John O. Armstrong; and Emma (Laman), who resides in Middlepoint. Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong had 10 children, all living : Charles, who married Catherine White, lives in Middlepoint, and is the father of Fane, Guy and Virgil (deceased in infancy) ; Arthur, employed by the Pennsylvania Railroad, who lives in Fort Wayne, Inliana; Mary Ellen, who married James Rayer, of Van Wert and has one child, Christina ; and Thomas, May, Frank, Minnie and Minta (twins), Josephine Pearl and Lee Owen, all living at home. Religiously the family are members of the Lutheran Church.
