HENRY LAUGHBAUM, farmer; P. O. Galion. Mr. Laughbaum, was born in Richland Co., Ohio, in 1828. He is the son of Solomon and Margaret (Heist) Laughbaum, natives of Pennsylvania. both being born near Lancaster. When Henry was a youth, his father bought 20 acres of land in Jefferson Township. Crawford Co., and then was stricken down by disease from which he never recovered, but lingered along for years, a helpless invalid. This threw the support of the family upon the boys, and their early life was one of extreme toil. He married Miss Nancy Pfeiffer, daughter of Peter Pfeiffer, in 1849. She was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. June, 1832, and at the time of her marriage, was an orphan. Mr. Laughbaum's business at this time, until 1865, was running a saw-mill in Whetstone Township. In 1865, he bought 80 acres of land, in Polk Township, where he now resides. Since that time he has added 20 acres more to the original purchase, and has improved it in buildings, fence's. etc., until to-day it is one of the host valuable pieces of land in the township. In the summer of 1880, he built a new and elegant residence, which adds much to the value of his property.
