10. Frederick Brock, one of the aged and highly respected citizens of
Jefferson township closed his earthly career Sunday afternoon at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. John Bentz, south of Laud, at the hour of 1:20.
The old gentleman had eaten his dinner, eating as heartily as usual, and
when he had finished, as was his custom, went into his room and laid down on his cot.
He gasped a few times and was gone, the end coming peacefully and quietly. One
more of the grand old pioneers of the county had been gathered to his fathers.
Frederick Brock was a native of Canton, Berne, Switzerland, where he was born
April 1st, 1822; died July 5th, 1908, aged 86 years, 3 months and 4 days. He was the
eldest of five children and the last of the family to depart from this life.
He was well educated in the old country, and in 1840 sailed for America with his
parents, who located in Fairfield county, Ohio. He celebrated his eighteenth birthday
while crossing the Atlantic, the trip over requiring fifty-eight days.
February 22, 1846, he was united in marriage to Elizabeth Amman and to whom six
children were born, five of whom survive – Benjamin, of Marion, Ind.; John W., of
Mills City, Ore.; Mrs. John Bentz and Samuel of Jefferson township, and Mrs. Lewis
Long, of Washington township.
13. Old King Cole was a
merry old soul And a merry

He called for his pipe, and
he called for his bowl And
he called for his fiddlers

Every fiddler he had a

Oh there's none so rare, as

21. English: habitational
name from a place in
West Yorkshire,
probably named in Old
English as ‘enclosed
wood’,
from loc(a) ‘enclosure’
(see Lock)
+ wudu ‘wood’. It seems
likely that all present-
day bearers of the name
descend from a single
family which originated
in this place. There is
another place of the
same name in
Cleveland, first recorded
in 1273 as Locwyt, from
Old English loc(a) + Old
Norseviðr ‘wood’,
‘brake’, but it is not clear
whether it has given rise
to a surname.

William Wilson. He runs a hotel.
A son, Foster, is born to Allice. He takes the name
1900 Foster Wilson, so his father was probably John W.
Foster died a month later.

know, he lived under the name of Wilson.

32. Johann "Peter" Shrout, came to the U.S. from Germany,
September 30, 1754, on the ship "Neptune" from Germany.
He married Anna Feuersbach.
After 60 years of marriage, he murdered his wife. He held
a broomstick to her neck until she suffocated July 24, 1804.
He was arrested on July 28, 1804.
Shrout plead guilty and was convicted of murder in the first
degree. On Monday Sept. 10, 1804, the sentence of death
was pressed against him and execution was set by the Sheriff
of Hardy Co. on October 12, 1804, between 10 a.m. and 4
p.m.
Shrout was executed at Moorefield according to the
method of executing at the time, which provided the accused
should sit upon his coffin, carried by six men to the place of
execution, usually a tree with an appropriate limb and the
prisoner was allowed to signal when he felt that he was ready.
It is said that Shrout, instead of dropping the stick, threw it
defiantly into the air.
