A letter that Elijah Sherwood wrote in 1947.
A story about Jonathan’s Life. Grandfather Sherwood's Records as far as I knew. By Elijah Sherwood (son of David Olney Sherwood)in 1947.
He was a small man. When a small boy he fell out of a perciman tree and busted his breast bone in the center. The parents never bandage his chest. So it never healed back. So he was never a strong man.
He was a shoe maker by trade. He and two other brothers were in the milling business in Laporte, Indiana I believe. They were in debt for the mill as my Father gave the incident. So the two brothers took bankrupsy. Grandfather thought it a discrace, to take bankrupsy so he let everything he had sell at a sheriff sale except his shoe bench and tools. Then he took his family and moved to Iowa. A few years later he died and was buried at Red Banks Iowa.
Son of Hugh and Rebecca Fields Sherwood.
Parent of David Olney(m. Priscilla DeButts and Margaret E. Russell Sooter), Rebecca Eleanor (m. James Valentine "Felty" Renfrow & Thomas C Balls), Hugh and Jeremiah.
