by Bob Orr

Dated 4 September 1817

Court of Common Pleas of Madison Co., OH, held in London on 2 September 1816, Ira Jameson, son of William Jameson, dec'd came into Court and choose William Irwin, his guardian; Zela Jameson, daughter of the said William choose Jonathan Minshall, her guardian and at the same time and place Jonathan Minshall and William Irwin was appointed by the said Court guardians of Cynthea Jameson, Pryor Jameson, Louvisa Jameson and William Jameson. The bond in the amount of $500.00 was signed on 11 September 1816 with Jonathan Minshall, William Erwin and Robert Nicholson signing the bond. {Irwin is spelled with an I and an E in the document.)

Ref: History of Madison Co., Ohio, 1883, Chicage, W. H. Beers & Co. pg. 841; "The first settler that we have been able to gain any account of within the precincts of Oak Run Twp. was William Jamison, who came to this county from Kentucky and located just south of the mouth of Glade Run, about 1805. He purchased 200 acres of land, upon which he resided until his death. He became quite a prominent and prosperous farmer of that day. He md. Ann Brown of Brown Co., OH by whom he had 3 sons and 3 daughters; Ira the eldest son, became a Minister in the Methodist Episcopal Church and died in Hancock Co., OH. The second son d. young and William the youngest son arriving at manhood, emigrated west and is now a resident of Mt. Pleasant, IA. The three daughters were named Zelah, who md. a man by the name of Ferguson; Cynthia md. Levi Poulston, and the 3rd dau. (name forgotten) md. a man by the name of Foster. All three of the daughters are now deceased."

{The article may be in error in that Ann Brown md. William Jamison in Bourbon Co., KY and there is no record that she ever lived in Brown Co., KY; however her parents may have moved to Clermont Co., OH after 1806 from Bourbon Co., KY. Ann had four brothers who lived in Clermont Co., OH.}

Ref: William Jamison b. ca 1777 was the son of William Jamison b. ca 1746, Philadelphia, PA., d. 2 Dec. 1804, Ross Co., OH (will dated 29 Nov. 1804, on file at Ross Co., OH Courthouse); William b. ca 1746 was the s/o Robert & Sarah (McKee) Jamison who was md. ca 1771 to Susannah Lockhart b. ca 1750, Morland Twp. PA, d. 9 Feb. 1824, Ross Co., OH; children: Charles, William, John, George, Mathew, Jacob, Samuel, Merit, Sarah, Elizabeth, and Margaret. After the Revolutionary War, they settled in Bourbon County, Kentucky. They were living there during the years when the Indians were attempting to massacre all white settlers in that area. William was part of a party of surveyors led by Nathaniel Massie into Ohio. (Massie later wrote a book about the dangers they encountered during that trip, and mentioned William Jamison as being part of that party.) William and Massie both settled on land near Chillicothe, Ohio and the Jamisons moved most of their family to Ohio. (Evidently, some of the older children remained in Kentucky). William was one of the first white men to raise corn in that part of the country, known at that time as Station Prairie, in Ross County. They later moved to another farm, near Frankfort, still in Ross County. They were both buried in the family graveyard on that farm.
