Ezra Creager was born in Montgomery county, Ohio, November 13, 1813, his father having emigrated from Maryland to that county the year previous. In 1834 he married Delilah Ford, who was born in Kentucky, July, 1814, and in March, 1837, moved to Preble and settled on one hundred and twenty-five acres where he now lives. He started in life poor, and his subsequent prosperity has been due to his industry and prudence. He has raised a family of nine children, six boys and three girls, and it is a somewhat singular circumstance that death has not yet broken the family circle. The children are Elizabeth Ann (Risinger), residing in Eaton; Lydia Ann (House), Mary Ann (Disher) and Levi A, in Monroe township; John R., Catharine (Fudge), Angeline (Risinger), and Joseph F., in this township, and Sarah Jane (Christman) in Iowa.
Joseph F. Creager was born in Washington township, in 1847. He is the third son of Ezra and Delila C. Creager, who were early settlers of Preble county. In 1870 he married Elizabeth Ann, daughter of Buckner and Mary Ann Deem; by whom he had one child. He has a farm of one hundred and three acres of land in section ten, township eight, of Washington township, about five miles north of Eaton.
