JOHN TROWBRIDGE
by Susan at Migration Steps

John was a soldier in the War of 1812. He enlisted from his native place as a substitute for [his brother-in-law] Foster Williams, Feb. 10, 1814, and served in Capt. S. S. Allen's company, 9th U.S. Infantry, and was discharged at Sackett's Harbour May 17, 1815. In 1817 he emigrated to Ohio and became one of the early settlers in what was then Harrison township, Preble county. He engaged in farming there and was a hunter and woodsman of considerable fame. About 1832 he removed with his family to a farm in Poplar Ridge, Darke county, in the same state, where he resided the remainder of his life. He was supervisor of Van Buren township for several years and many of the early roads were constructed by him.
