Notes

Note: Portrait and Biographical Record of Allen and Van Wert Counties, Ohio "Adam Armstrong, wiith whose name this biographical records opens, was but a babe in arms when brought to Washington township by his parents in 1847. In this township he has passed his entire life, attending the district schools and working on his father's farms in the woods among the pioneers, and undergoing many of the privations of early frontier life. This life, however, hardened his muscles and early inured him to toil, and when old enough he began his business life, for his own account. April 19, 1882, he married in Allen County, Ohio, Miss Mary Reeder, daughter of George and Rebecca (Manning) Reeder. George Reeder was a farmer, was a volunteer in a regiment from Ohio in the late Civil War and died in the service, leaving his widow and a child, now Mrs. Armstrong, to mourn his loss. The widow Reeder subsequently married John Hepfer, a cooper by trade and now living in Delphos, Ohio and to this marriage have been born three children, Eliza, John and Melvin Hepfer, all of whom, however, now are deceased. To the union of Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong have been born six children, Etta, Chester, Rossie (died at eight and a half-years of age), Bessie, Otis (died at four years) and Francis. After marriage Mr. Armstrong settled on his present farm, which he had purchased when it was a vast wilderness. But Mr. Armstrong had been trained to frontier farm and soon elevated this farm to a state which compared favorably with any other in this township, thoroughly draining, tiling and otherwise improving it. His dwelling, out-buildings, etc., are all any reasonable man could desire, notwithstanding the fact that he has been greatly afflicted for the past twelve years with rheumatism and heart trouble; yet bears his affliction with Christian resignation and cheerfulness, and with these exceptions is as comfortably situated as the majority of mankind ever hope to be. He is a man of undoubted integrity and stands high in the esteem of his neighbors, with whom he ranks, although quite a youngster when he came here, as among the "old settlers" of Washington township."
