William Charlton was born in Center County, Pa., July 13, 1810, a son of John Charlton. When he was a boy he removed with his parents to Ohio and settled in Stark County, where his father died. He was reared a farmer, and followed that vocation in Ohio till 1854 when he came to Steuben County, Ind., and bought the farm on section 31, Steuben Township, of Henry Hecklethorne, where he has since lived.
