JOHN B. HOUSER. farmer; P. 0. Piqua; was born in Montgomery Co., Ohio, April 13, 1821, and when but a boy, came
with his parents to this county locating on Sec. 5, where he nobly assisted his father in opening out a farm, and
waving fields of grain are now seen where the unbroken forest stood. About 1848, John B. bought his present farm
of 80 acres, in Sec. 11, which has undergone a great change since in his possession; good barns and a substantial
house have taken the place of the round log house and stable. Sept. 12, 1850, he married R. B. Whitney. born in
Warren Bo., Ohio, March 7, 1831, and who departed this life. March 5, 1880: by this union they had one daughter,
now Mrs. Speelman who, since the death of her mother, has resided with her husband and family, on the farm with
Mr. Houser.
