Honey Creek Township:
The first settler in this township was George Clem, as early perhaps as 1812. He built north of where the state road crosses Honey creek, near where George Kruzan now lives. Mr. Clem died here in 1835. Several of his descendants still live in Honey Creek. Among the other early settlers in the west part of the township may be mentioned Judge Hopkins, Jeremiah Moat, Truman Blackman, the first sheriff of the county, and the Durhams. Lambert and Dixon, who were partners in business, each built substantial brick residences about 1817. George Jordan came here in 1817, and cropped the first year on Lambert's place.
Churches:
The Methodists seem to have been first in organizing societies and building churches. There are now three churches of this denomination, one of the Baptist, and one of the United Brethren. John Dickson and Isaac Lambert, with their wives, were prominent among the first Methodists of the township. The first meetings were held at their houses, and the society was organized as early as 1818 or 1820.
Institutions:
In the first settlement of this township, for a few years, it required several days to go to mill and return. As early as 1818, however, Jeremiah Moat, who lived near the site of Davis Pugh's residence, built a small mill which was turned by a horse, working on a tread wheel. About 1820 or 1822, Dickson and Lambert put up a fine mill on Honey creek, costing them several thousand dollars. The foundations were undermined by the water, and in a few years it was washed down and never rebuilt. The Poplar Hill, or Hull's, graveyard is finely located near the old Lambert place.
Isaac LAMBERT, John DICKSON, a Mr. HUDSON, CHATRY and MALLORY, all cultivated the lands under protection of the fort." Some, at least, of those named by Mr. LISTON, had been, or were at the time mentioned, soldiers, who, after their discharge, settled upon these fertile lands.
