Daniel Bachtel, son of John Jacob and Catharine (Letch) Bachtel, was born on the 28th of August, 1793, either in Maryland or Pennsylvania. He came with his parents to Ohio in the spring of 1813 and settled in Pike township. Here he was associated with his father and two brothers in erecting the little log cabin home in the midst of the forest wilds. Grandfather Bachtel died within less than two years after they came to Stark county, and this left the family's affairs in rather unfavorable condition. Daniel was compelled to purchase the farm and provide for the maintenance of his mother and sister. These circumstances induced him to seek a partner, so that on the 16th of May, 1816, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary A. Sherman, who was born in Greencastle, Franklin county, Pennsylvania on the 27th of September, 1798, and who came with her parents to Stark county about the same time as did the Bachtel family. Mr. and Mrs. Bachtel began housekeeping on the old homestead where the former first settled on coming to the county, and here all save one of their ten children were born. They continued to reside on this farm for a period of twenty years--until April, 1836--when they removed to Green township, then one in the northern tier of townships in this county, and later taken into Summit county. Here they continued to reside until the spring of 1842, their youngest child, Susan A., having been there born, on the 9th of November, 1839. Subsequently to 1842 the family removed from place to place until November, 1854, when Daniel Bachtel, with other members of the family, went to Huntington county, Indiana, and settled two miles west of the village of Roanoke, and there they passed the remainder of their lives. Daniel Bachtel there died on the 1st of April, 1860, at the age of sixty-six years, seven months and three days, and his remains were laid to rest in the Wesley chapel cemetery. His widow survived until May 30, 1877, and her remains rest beside those of her husband, her age at the time of death having been seventy-three years.
