Notes |
- Swan Township is one of the twelve townships of Vinton County, Ohio, United States. The 2000 census found 796 people in the township. Located in the northern part of the county, it borders the following townships: Washington Township, Hocking County: north; Starr Township, Hocking County: northeast corner; Brown Township: east; Madison Township: southeast; Elk Township: south; Jackson Township: west Benton Township, Hocking County: northwest. It is the only Swan Township statewide, although there is a Swan Creek Township in Fulton County, and a Swanton Township in Lucas County.
Note: While Edna was born in South Bloomingville, Benton Twp, Hocking County (formed in 1818), Perl was born in Swan Twp, Vinton County (formed in 1850) but in both cases, the parents are residing in South Bloomingville. These townships are adjacent even though in different counties. More research will be needed to sort out Perl's seemngly disjointed birthplace.
Obituary The Akron News-Reporter, Thursday September 3, 1964 Funeral services for Perl T. Barnhouse were held Saturday morning August 29 [1964] from the Akron Presbyterian Church. Rev Thomas Westfall, pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Otis was in charge of the service. Interment was in the Akron Cemetery. Perl Travis Barnhouse, son of Ira Morgan and Mary F Albin-Barnhouse, was born in Hocking County, Ohio, May 31, 1877 and passed away at his home in Akron August 26, 1964 at the age of 87 years, 2 months and 26 days after a lingering illness of years. He resided in Washington County 77 years. His family moved from Ohio to Shelby, Nebraska where he attended school. In 1887, the Barnhouse family homesteaded 160 acres about 25 miles southwest of Akron in Abbott township which in later years was developed into a large cattle ranch. When a very young boy, Perl, in addition to helping his parents on the ranch, worked at herding cattle. The pay was $5 a month and board. The hours were long - from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. On October 29, 1907, he was married to Miss Mamie Arundle and to this union five children were born: Dora Marie, Thelma Ruth, George Howard (all deceased), Robert Victor and Omar Eugene. In 1914 he enlisted in the Colorado National Guard and attained the rank of sergeant. He was secretary of the school board of District 64 a number of years, [and] pesident of the Washington County Stockman's Association several years. He and his wife moved to Akron after retiring from ranching, where he served as Justice of the Peace, and on the Selective Service Board and as special representative of the Colorado Inheritance Tax Commission. He was secretary of Akron Lodge No. 74 AF&AM ten years, was a member of Royal and Select Masons No. 19 and No. 26 and No. 28 and Order of High Priesthood and the Shrine. Mr. Barnhouse joined the Presbyterian Church in 1951 where he was active as long as his health permitted. He leaves to mourn his passing, his wife, Mamie, two sons, Robert Victor of Oceola, Missouri and Reverend Omar Barnhouse, pastor of the Franklin Church of the Nazarene of Nampa, Idaho; eight grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; two sisters, Mrs. Maude Sears of San Francisco, California and Mrs. Anna Wright of Denver, as well as nieces and nephews and a host of friends."
