Swarthout, Heman Chapman, one of Benton's representative farmers, born in Barrington, September 21, 1842, was
the youngest of the children of George F. and Roena Swarthout. At the age of seventeen Heman started out for himself
and for several years migrated from one place to another, living most of that time in Ohio and New York. In 1876
after his mother's death he bought the farm in Benton he now occupies. It embraces over Too acres and is in a good
state of cultivation. In 1866 Mr. Swarthout married Eliza Jane Barber, by whom he had two children, both dying
in infancy. His wife died in 1885 and in February, 1887, he married Sarah A. Prichard, of Benton.
