HOOVER'S CEMETERY

Hoover's Cemetery, known also a Mount Hope, and Athens Cemetery, is on the north side of SR-14, about three-tenths of a mile east of 650E - a few hundred feet east of the town of Athens, Henry Township, Fulton County, Indiana. A sign at the entrance reads “Hoover Cemetery, 1891.” Land for this cemetery was donated by Henry Hoover and William Rannells. William Rannells and his wife Susan were originally from Virginia, but removed to Ohio where they remained for some time before moving on to settle east of Athens, between Rochester and Akron, in Fulton Co., Ind. They brought with them a young slave girl, Fannie Rose, who died in 1855. She was buried in the Rannells family burial ground which was later made a part of Hoover’s cemetery. The Rannells house, home of William Rannells, and later used as a tavern or inn, was probably thirty rods, a little south & east of the old Mount Hope church, which was at the south-east corner of the cemetery. Traces of the old church foundation are still visible. (Fulton Co Ind Hist Soc Quarterly, Dec. 1968 (No. 2), pp. 5-6, 15; also Marguerite Miller, Home Folks, Vol. 2, p. 93). The cemetery is divided into four sections: North, South, East and West. Rows run north and south; rows are numbered from west to east; stones read from north to south. Readings made in 1974, 1975 and 1991.

[NOTE: Katharine (also Catharine) Sheets, b.ca.1794 No.Car. came to Ohio at an early date, and was perhaps the third wife of Philip Rader, Sr., of Montgomery Co Ohio. The Census, 1850 tells that all the children in the family were b.Ohio; also, David “Capt”, the eighth child in this family, was b.Montgomery Co Ohio, a son of Philip, Sr., and Katharine (Sheets) Rader, indicating that the marriage of Philip & Katharine took place in Ohio. Philip Rader, Sr., was b. August 12, 1782, at Bells Knob, Wythe Co Virginia, and was an Ohio Vet. of the War of 1812. He removed to Ohio in 1803, settling in Montgomery Co. According to tradition, the Rader ancestors - father, mother and three sons, Connrad, Jasper & John, left Germany to come to America ca.1750. The parents d. and were bur at sea, and the sons went to Virginia and on their separate ways. The Indiana branch does not know anything about them. Fulton Co Ind history tells that Philip Rader, Sr. was m. (1st) to Miss Cress who died; and that there were four children born who also died (Rader family history says her name was Cross). No marriage record has been located to prove or disprove that statement. There is proof of the (2nd) marriage of Philip Rader to Elizabeth Siddon, January 30, 1812 (L. D. M. Brien, Montgomery Co Ohio Marriages 1803-1851). Elizabeth Rader, wife of Philip, d.1824, at age 32 years, and is bur in Old Mill Creek cem, Butler Twp, Montgomery Co Ohio (L.D.M. Brien, Montgomery Co Ohio Cem Records, p. 153) Philip Rader, Sr., and his (third?) wife, Katharine (Sheets) Rader came to Henry Twp, Fulton Co Ind, in 1842. They are householders of that twp & county in Census, 1850 with five children.

A., 8 b.Ohio; Jas., 6 b.Ind; Catharine, 5 b.Ind; Elizabeth, 3 b.Ind; and Davis, 10 months b.Ind. There was not found a record of this Fentres family in Henry Twp, Census, 1860. There is a record of a Joseph Fenters marriage to Clarissa Strong, March 14, 1858 (Fulton Co Ind M.R.). Joseph & Clarissa, both 54, and both b.Ohio, were householders of Henry Twp, Fulton Co Ind, in the Census, 1870, with Davis 20, and Martha E. 10. Joseph Fenters, age 64, b.Ohio (parents both b.So.Car) “widowed” was living with the household of Isaac & Lydia Sears in Henry Twp, Fulton Co Ind, in Census, 1880. Bethany Christine, dau of Philip, Sr., and Katharine (Sheets) Rader, m. October 31, 1844 to Jacob Stevens (L. D. M. Brien, Montgomery Co Ohio Marriages, 1803-1851). Since Philip Rader, Sr., and his family had already gone to Ind, it is possible that Bethany remained in Ohio, but not certain. Reference: Elia W.

WHITTENBERGER CEMETERY, Henry Twp.

WHITTENBERGER CEMETERY

An old burial ground, now abandoned, was once on the old Jacob Whittenberger farm, also known as Century Farm, more recently known as the Michael Porter farm, and was known as the "Old Whittenberger Cemetery." It was located about two hundred feet northwest of the Akron sewer pumping building, north of SR-14 at the west edge of Akron, Henry Township, Fulton County, Indiana. A part of the old iron fence and one marker are all that remain.

NOYER, Delta, 1890-1926

(this marker, the only one found by these compilers in 1975, was placed there by Sylvia Noyer when she had a new marker place in the Akron Cemetery for Donald O. and Sarah Delta Noyer)

Manitou Chapter DAR, Genealogical Survey, Fulton Co Ind Cemeteries, 1935, recorded the following:

WELTON, Adeline, d. fall of 1837, ae 20y WELTON, Fanny,d. in 1837, ae 18y WELTON, Asher, Soldier War of 1812, d. Aug 1838 WELTON, Ada Low, dau of Anthony Low, Revolutionary Soldier, d. 1842 (no age or b.d.)

[NOTE: The first death in Akron (known then as Newark), was that of Miss Adeline Welton in the fall of 1836, which was followed in a few days with the death of her sister, Fannie. (Barnhart, History of Fulton Co Ind, 1923, p. 139.]

[NOTE: The Akron News, November 17, 1893 tells the following: “Mr. & Mrs. Thomas Sippy of Richland Co Wisconsin are here visiting their old friends and relatives, the Whittenbergrers & Sippys. Mrs. Sippy’s maiden name was Laura Welton and she was the first white child born in Henry Twp, occurring 56 years ago in a log cabin that stood in the yard where Eliza Slaybaugh’s house now stands.

[Kate (Morris) Jennens told Jean C. Tombaugh, compiler of this book, in 1976 that the above-mentioned Eliza Slaybaugh’s house was the “present” home of Josephine Slaybaugh Merley.]

“Her parents and three sisters are buried on Jacob Whittenberger’s farm north of the house, the last one, a sister dying buried there 48 years ago. The spot has been carefully guarded all these years, first by fence which decayed and latterly Mr. Whittenberger has placed stones over the graves to mark and protect them with a neat iron fence. Mr. Sippy enjoys a prominent place in his Wisconsin home having servefd as sheriff & othr positions of trust.”

[NOTE: Asher Welton, lhis wife and ten children are said to have arrived in Fulton County, Ind., in June 1836. They came with Dr. Joseph Sippy, William Whittenberger, Henry Bristol, Moses Worden, Uriah Bragg and their families, and Nathaniel Cogshall an unmarried man. The first purchase of land in Fulton County to be made by Asher Welton “of Kosciusko

County” was 80 acres in Henry Twp (T30R4E) on September 21, 1837. He died soon after, and his estate was “Settled Up” by Alfred T. Welton on November 11, 1839. Records indicate that the wife of Asher Welton was Ada (Adah J.) Low, dau of Anthony Low, Revolutionary war soldier. We know for certain that Asher & Adah J. (Low) Welton had children: Adaline, b.ca.1817; Fanny, b.ca.1819; Julia; Asher, Jr.; Isaac; Celia S.; Laura E., b.May 17, 1837, first child born to white parents in Henry Twp. Alfred T., Hiram Low, Ransom M. and Seymour J. Welton were all householders of Fulton Co Ind, in 1840 and may have been older sons of Asher Welton. Their relationship to Asher Welton has not been determined. Alfred T. and Ransom M. Welton both appear to have married before coming to Fulton Co Ind, and Hiram Low Welton married soon after they arrived here. The birth date of Alfred T. Welton is not known, however he is said to have come to Henry Twp, Fulton Co Ind, in 1837, and was first postmaster of Wesley - later called Akron. He was deceased by March, 1849, and Lot N. Bozarth was named Admr. of his estate. Name of the wife of Alfred T. Welton is unknown, however inscription on the grave marker for Minerva Osgood, wife of Melancton Osgood, tells that she was a dau of A. T. & S. Welton. Semantha Welton age 60 (b.ca.1790 N.Y.) who was living in the household of Lot N. & Clarissa Jane Bozarth, in Rochester Twp in the Census, 1850, might be the wife of Alfred T. Welton, but needs a little more proof. Fulton Co Ind Estate Book “A”, p. 364 reveals the names of the heirs of Alfred T. Welton: (Polly M. (also called Mary Ann & Minerva), although not in the Estate Book mentioned above, should be named first because of her age - b.1825, d.1854 - was b.New York, and m. in Fulton Co Ind, to Melancton Osgood December 29, 1842. She died leaving small children: George N., b.ca.1845, Miron T., b.ca.1847, L. G. “Gardner” b.ca.1850, and Mary L. Osgood.); Grant; Caroline T., b.ca.1834 Ohio, probably living at age 16 with Semantha Welton (age 60) in the household of Lot T. and Clarissa Jane Bozarth in Rochester Twp in 1850, and m. Cyrus H. Robbins, November 18, 1852 (Fulton Co Ind M.R.); Chauncy R.; Melanston; Orange (J.?). Hiram Low Welton was of Medina Co Ohio, when he purchased 80 acres of land in Henry Twp on March 25, 1836 (Fulton Co Ind Early Tract Book). His marriage to Hannah Sippy at the cabin of Dr. Sippy on January --, 1838, was the first marriage of Henry Twp. She was a dau of Dr. Joseph Sippy. Ransom M. Welton, who may have been a son of Asher Welton, was b. May 15, 1815, and d. October 27, 1845 at age 30y-5m-12d. He purchased 40 acres land in Henry Twp, Fulton Co Ind, September 21, 1837. His wife, Elsie M. (also calld Elcy, Elsa and Elizabeth M.), b. September 1, 1813 in N.Y., and d. August 4, 1867 at age 53y-11m-4d, m. (2nd) to Wm.

Tombaugh, Fulton Co Ind Early Court Records). Wm. & Elsa M. Whittenberger, Jr., were residents of Henry Twp in Census, 1850. Their household included the children of Ransom M. Welton, first husband of Elsa M. Whittenberger. These children are also listed in Estate Book A, p. 129: Cordelia, b.ca.1836 Ohio, prob. m. December 16, 1855 John A.
