Quakers In Community: 19th Century Life In Columbiana County, Ohio

BY LYNDA SALTER CHENOWETH

Brief Description:
Shares and documents the information that Lynda collected about all of the people named on Philena's quilt, (see her previous book) as well as members of other families who were important in the community where Philena lived. These families included the Clemsons, Coopers, Duttons, Galbreaths, Griffiths, Hambletons, Mendenhalls, Votaws, Wards, and Windles-all of whom lived in Columbiana County, Ohio, during the 19th century. The stories of their lives, as presented here, are told within the context of early migration into Ohio, anti-slavery activism, religious upheaval within the Quaker community, the daily hardships faced by Ohio's settlers, and the Civil War.
