"JOHN HURD, retired; P. O. Cable; born in Kentucky May 1, 1802; is a son of Thomas and Dorcas (Morrison) Hurd ; he was born in Philadelphia and she in Maryland ; they removed to Virginia, thence to Kentucky, and were for a time, with Daniel Boone and others, quartered in the block-house during the troubles with the Indians. In June, 1802, they removed to Ohio, and located in what is now Clark Co., and lived in camp there one year; then bought land, on which they lived and died, he dying in November, 1812, and she in August, 1813. Our subject was then 10 years of age, and soon after went to Urbana to learn the blacksmith trade, which he followed through his active life. In 1864, he located upon the farm where he now resides. He located in Urbana when the town was in its infancy, it being laid out in 1805, by Col. William Ward, Sr., of Kentucky. Mr. Hard has seen much of the roughness of pioneer life of this county. He has always been a stanch Republican, and, as such, has taken a very active part in all political matters. During the war of the rebellion he received the appointment of Deputy United States Marshal, and did effective service in maintaining freedom of speech and sustaining the laws and principles of our Government. He furnished three sons for the army and tried to enter himself, but on account of his advanced age they refused him. He obtained a commission as Captain for a company of sharpshooters, but he failed to get any position in active service; however, he probably did as much good at home, in controlling the traitorous elements in his own county. Dec. 25, 1823, he was married to Miss Phoebe, daughter of Benjamin and Mary (Spinning) Morris, natives of New Jersey. They had twelve children, six of whom survive -Joseph C., Charles S., John S., James D., Albert N. and Ann Maria. Capt. Hurd, 78 years of age, has not been sick a day for fifty-seven years. As a pioneer of this county, an uncompromising Union man, having an untarnished record of devotion to his country, we hand this down to his descendants, trusting they may feel proud and ever cherish his memory for his good deeds, and the patriotism he manifested through out his life."2The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1880 United States Census, Copyright (c) 2000, 2002 FamilySearch (TM) Internet Genealogy Service, June 13, 2005, FHL Film 1254998; National Archives Film T9-0998; Page 475C, Family History Library, Salt Lake City, Utah.

"William S. Morris,. . . son of Benjamin and Mary P. (Spinning) Morris. They were both from New Jersey, and came to Ohio in 1790. Mr. Morris at the age of sixteen helped to build the fort at Round Bottom, where he remained for about five years, farming, as did most of the inmates of the fort; working in the day time and doing guard duty at night. At the age of twenty he was married to his first wife, who bore him one child, and shortly after its birth both died of the small-pox. He afterwards married Mary Spinning, by whom he had ten children, only three of whom are now living: Isaac, Phoebe (wife of John Herd, now living in Champaign County), and William S. The greater part of Mr. Morris' married life was spent in Unionville, near Shakertown, Warren County, where he reared and educated."5History of the First Presbyterian Church, Morristown, N.J.
