Isaac Hibbs (son of Isaac) had a farm in Carroll County just a mile or two outside the little town of Kilgore. He purchased 160 acres through the land office at Steubenville in 1823. The Hibbses were Lutherans, and belonged to the Lutheran Church in Kilgore. This was in the early 1800s. On records prior to 1833, this area is Rock Twp., Harrison County. Carroll County was not formed until 1833. After this he's listed as a resident of Carroll County. According to the tax records, the farm was located at range 5, township 13, section 7. He had 2 horses, 3 cows, and 160 acres valued at $240.00.
Isaac Hibbs married Mary Lucas. They had seven children: Nancy, Elisabeth, William, Susan, Mahlon, Mary, and Isaac. Mary (Lucas) Hibbs died in 1828, and is buried in the cemetery at Kilgore.
In March of 1844, Isaac remarried to Juliann Matthews. Sometime after this date Isaac, Juliann, Mahlon, the younger Isaac, and stepdaughter Isabella Matthews, relocated to Jefferson Twp., Tuscarawas County. They are all listed on the 1850 census as being in Jefferson Twp., occupation of "farmer." They lived somewhere up in Oldtown Valley, just over the hill from Stone Creek. Between the three of them, they seem to have farmed quite a bit of land.
In early 1858, Isaac died at the age of 68. His will was written in 1855, and was executed in late March of 1858.
He is buried in Forney Cemetery, now on private property but visible from County Road 24 (Oldtown Valley). It's in a field, and the current owners have the cemetery fenced in.
