Excerpt from "HENRY MILLER..."
"... Mrs. Miller was born at Browhelm Station, Ohio, and her father, Henry [sic: Jacob] Smith, was a native of Hessen, Germany, whence he immigrated to the United States in an early day. Henry [sic: Jacob] Smith drove an ox team from Brownhelm Station to Cleveland to the first grist mill established in the latter city. En route he forded the Rocky River, and it took him three weeks to make the round trip. He built a log house in the vicinity of Brownhelm Station and subsequently erected a frame house, which is still standing and which is now used as a store house on the old Smith homestead. It is roofed with hand split and shaved shingles and has been in continuous use for over forty-six years. This farm is owned by Mrs. Henry Brown, an aunt of the subject of this review. ..."
