James Harper’s family– following family from 1820 living in Sycamore Township, Hamilton County, Ohio to his two daughters - Martha’s marriage to William R. Baxter and Sarah’s marriage to William Cox Irwin, both living next door to each other in Deerfield Township, Warren County, Ohio in 1850.

 

James Harper is listed in Sycamore Township, Hamilton County, Ohio in 1820 U.S. Federal Census.  In the 1830 U.S. Federal Census he is listed in the newly organized, “Symmes Township”, which was settled in 1824.

Note: A part of the Symmes Purchase, it was first settled by German and Scots-Irish settlers[citation needed] in 1824. 

Symmes Township is situated in the northeast corner of Hamilton County.  The Township was formed in 1824 from the eastern portion of Sycamore Township and bears the name of John Cleves Symmes (1742-1814) who, in 1788, made the "Miami Purchase" which led to the founding of Cincinnati.

An 1869 Symmes Township land map gives clues to some of our present-day areas.   The Harper family owned large tracts of land in the area now know as Harper's Station.

Symmes Station was the old Symmes Township "center" where Hopewell Road intersects with Loveland Madeira Road.  Once called Polktown, Symmes Station had a church, fire station and the Township hall, which was used until 1975.

Symmes Township, Ohio, now a prosperous suburban region located in the northeast corner of Hamilton County, played an important role in the growth of the United States. For thousands of years the area’s fertile land, location, and numerous waterways have attracted people to the region. That the Symmes Township name has remained well into the twenty-first century symbolizes the legacy left by John Cleves Symmes. It also represents the importance of the Symmes Purchase, also known as the Miami Purchase, to the growth early America. Symmes chose wisely in his land purchase. His vision for settlement in young America’s newly acquired western lands helped create the foundation for the City of Cincinnati, as well as the State of Ohio.

Pre-American Heritage

Approximately 15,000 years ago, the first humans entered the region following the trails of big game animals, such as Mastodon. Almost three thousand years ago, the region’s residents, known as the Ohio Woodland People (800 BC to 1200AD), began building earthen burial mounds and complex geometric earthworks. These ancient cultures left the Ohio River Valley landscape covered with over 10,000 earthworks and left behind evidence of a trade network that extended from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes region. In approximately 900 AD, a culture unique to the Southwestern Ohio region appeared. Known as the Fort Ancient culture, its people created large permanent villages in the area and are believed by many to be the ancestors of the Shawnee.

By the mid–1600s, the large villages in the region were abandoned as European disease and hostilities among the Iroquois, British and French disrupted life in the region. The Iroquois Confederacy wanted to expand their territory and control trade with the Europeans. They began a campaign, known as the French and Iroquois War, moving west and then south along the Great Lakes, causing waves of displacement and migrations as other Native American groups fled south and west. The word Ohio derives from an Iroquois word meaning beautiful.

During the early to mid 1700’s, the region repopulated. Due to its vast natural resources, prime continental location, and easy access by waterways, control of the region remained highly contested by Native Americans, the French and British until after the American Revolution. In 1753 the Ohio Valley region was occupied by the French military. Virginian George Washington was sent as a representative of the Virginia militia to the Ohio Valley to deliver a message to the French demanding that they give claim to the Ohio region to the British. War erupted between the French and British with various Native American groups supporting each side. Resolved in the 1763 Treaty of Paris, the French passed possession of the land northwest of the Ohio River to the British who then in turn gave it to the Americans in the treaty ending the American Revolution in 1783. In 1786, at the mouth of the Great Miami River, the United States signed the Treaty of Fort Finney with the Shawnee granting the U.S. an uncontested right to the land between the Miami Rivers.

Judge John Cleves Symmes (1742–1814) & The Symmes Purchase

After serving as a New Jersey delegate to the Continental Congress, John Cleves Symmes turned his eye toward settlement of America’s newly acquired land to the west. Symmes became interested in settling the land between the Great Miami and Little Miami Rivers thanks to Captain Benjamin Stites. In the spring of 1787, Stites traveled down the Ohio River from Redstone, Pennsylvania on a trading expedition. Near the vicinity of Maysville, Kentucky, local Native Americans stole several horses. Stites and a party set out to recover the horses. When they reached the mouth of the Little Miami River, the party headed northward and finally ended their pursuit empty handed near the headwaters of the Little Miami River. As they retraced their steps back toward the Ohio River, Stites decided to promote settlement in the fertile region. Soon thereafter, Stites met with Judge John Cleves Symmes in New Jersey and quickly persuaded him of the area’s potential for settlement.

Experienced in government, Symmes had the knowledge and connections to bring Stites idea to reality. Prior to the American Revolution, Symmes worked as a teacher and land surveyor. During the Revolution, he served as a colonel of a militia regiment. He went on to serve as a delegate to the New Jersey state convention and to help draft the state constitution. He was a member of the Continental Congress for two years and served as a New Jersey Supreme Court judge for twelve.

In 1784, 1785 and 1787, the U.S. Congress passed a series of land ordinances for surveying and selling land north of the Ohio River. The final one, the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, included provisions for the development of states with the area east of the Mississippi, South of the great Lakes and North of the Ohio. Under these ordinances, Symmes applied to the federal government for the land. Though he received only a tentative agreement, in November of 1787 he began advertising to promote sales of the land. The following month he began issuing certificates on the land known as “Miami Land Warrants.” The first one was issued to Benjamin Stites who quickly settled, relocated and founded the village of Columbia west of the Little Miami. The second sale of land went to a group led by Mathias Denman, Colonel Robert Patterson and Robert Filson. They founded Losantiville, now present day Cincinnati.

On February 19, 1788, Symmes was elected by Congress to be one of the judges for the Northwest Territory. In 1789, Symmes founded the third settlement in the area North Bend. He went on to lay out the plat for the town site of Cleves. While Columbia and Losantiville prospered, North Bend, due in large part to flooding problems, never became as successful. His daughter, Anna, married another North Bend resident, William Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United States. Symmes spent his latter years still sorting out land claim conflicts resulting from the Symmes Purchase. He passed away in 1824.

The Legacy of the Symmes Purchase

Due to improper surveys of the region and over ambition on Symmes part, he sold more land than covered by his 1788 agreement. In 1792, he petitioned Congress and the contract was extended. Symmes however continued to oversell land, selling tracts from the Ohio River, the Great Miami River to the West, and the Little Miami River to the East and to the North, almost to present day Dayton. In 1811, the Symmes home at North Bend burned down destroying all the original land certificates. While Symmes' questionable business practices created confusion and litigation, the overselling of lands helped the region populate quickly.

The Symmes Purchase was one of the first major land deals after the American Revolution in the Northwest Territory. It created the foundation for not only the city of Cincinnati and the state of Ohio, but for settlement and statehood as Americans pushed further west. In 1789, in part because of a request made by John Symmes to guarantee settlers not encounter any hostilities with any Native Americans still remaining in the area, Northwest Territory Governor Arthur St. Clair established Fort Washington near Losantiville. By 1790, an estimated two thousand had settled on Symmes Purchase land. That same year Gov. St Clair visited the region changing the name of Losantiville to Cincinnati, and creating Hamilton County. By 1800, the population of the area had increased to 15,000. This rapid expansion along with other major land purchases, such as the Ohio Company, gave Ohio the population required for admission to statehood under the Northwest Ordinance of 1787. In 1803, Ohio became the first new state in the Northwest Territory. In 1803, as per the terms of the purchase contract, John Cleves Symmes donated 23,040 acres to be used for “an academy and other public schools and seminaries of learning”. It would be the site of Miami University, which opened first as an academy in 1818, then as a college in 1824.

Early Settlers of Symmes Township

Many of the early settlers in the Miami Valley region were veterans of the American Revolution. After the American Revolution, the young government lacked the money to fully pay soldiers. Soldiers were permitted to use the IOU’s issued during the war as payment for land in the Northwest Territory. This arrangement made the purchase of land in Ohio easy for Revolutionary soldiers. Also, many either saw the area or heard tales during the war of the fertile land, rivers and tributaries, and abundant natural resources in the Miami Valley.

These early settlers worked together to clear land, construct homes, build business, form schools, create churches, and get crops to market. In addition to farming, particularly wheat, settlers developed a variety of small industries. In particular, the waters of the Little Miami made it ideal for building mills. Services, now provided by local governments, were then handled by the community. For fire protection, communities organized volunteer bucket brigades and kept rain barrels in case the fire was too far from the area’s many creeks, rivers and springs. As areas broke off into independent political entities, some required all residents to keep leather buckets, and all residents were expected to volunteer in putting out fires. By the 1830’s, villages and townships were pulling their resources to purchase hand pump fire engines.

One of the earliest settlers to the Symmes Township area was revolutionary soldier, Christian Waldschmidt. Waldschmidt traveled with a group of twenty other families to the United States to escape religious persecution in 1786. They first settled in Pennsylvania, where they built his first paper mill. In late 1794, Waldschmidt and the other families traveled to the location of what is now Camp Dennison, where they would found New Germany. After settling the area, Waldschmidt built a church that he would preach at every Sunday. He went on to build a grist mill, a distillery, and a paper mill. He built the first paper mill in the state of Ohio in New Germany in 1800. This was the first paper mill west of Philadelphia. Paper from Waldschmidt’s mill was used in the first newspaper published in Cincinnati. Waldschmidt died a wealthy man in March of 1814. The value of his various properties was $48,914. The town continued to prosper. In addition to the mills, it had a distillery, shoemaker, large general store and a blacksmith, Kugler. Symmes Township, itself was created between 1820 and 1826. In 1825, it became an independent political entity, including the settlement of Germany. In 1817, James Pollack platted the village of Polktown, frequently called “The Company Mill” due to the number of mills in the area.

The Associate Reformed Presbyterians congregation was founded in 1795. They settled along Montgomery Road at Sixteen-Mile Stand. Their church, Sycamore United Presbyterian Church, built in 1848, still remains. In 1802, Nathaniel Terwilliger drew up the village plat for nearby Montgomery. Located at the intersection of Shawnee and Miami Indian trails that ran North/South and East/West, the village quickly became a major stage coach route. In 1816, with the capital of Ohio established in Columbus, Montgomery Road became the State road from Cincinnati to Columbus, and Montgomery Road became a major stage coach stop. The name Sixteen-Mile Stand results from the use of Montgomery Road as a stage coach route. It was literally a stage coach stopping point, or stand, sixteen miles from Cincinnati. This route eventually became known as the 3 C Highway and connected Cincinnati, Columbus and Cleveland.

The turnpike system in Ohio was created from 1830-1844. Combined with the canal system and the use of steamboats down the Ohio to the Mississippi River to New Orleans, Cincinnati became the gateway for Ohio goods to reach eastern and even international markets. In 1836, the state of Ohio issued the state charter for the Little Miami Rail Road. The section crossing through Symmes Township along the Little Miami River was completed in 1842. While the rail road proved profitable, it brought a variety of changes to the region. Towns, such as Germany, that had prospered failed to grow in population after the railroad opened.

Camp Dennison

During the Civil War, in addition to local residents volunteering for the Union army, a major military camp and hospital were established north of Waldschmidt’s settlement of Germany. In April of 1861, George B. McClellan, Major General of Ohio Militia, chose the outskirts of Cincinnati for a military camp. A former officer working for McClellan, William S. Rosecrans, chose the location of what would be Camp Dennison. After only a few weeks, 11,000 men had enlisted to military service at Camp Dennison. One well known regiment of Camp Dennison was Die Neuner, the German regiment, which was the first regiment to sign on for three years in the state of Ohio. Illness was a common issue at Camp Dennison during the first few months, until the Sisters of Charity nuns volunteered to tend the sick. In July of 1863, John Morgan and his 2000 troops stopped to rest within sight of Camp Dennison, after traveling ninety miles in 35 hours. All that occurred was a light skirmish, after which Morgan and his men departed, relatively unscathed. After the Civil War, Camp Dennison was shut down in September of 1865. Many stayed and settled in Camp Dennison after the Civil War, including a number of African-American families who came to the area during the war. They formed a denomination in 1888 and constructed their church, Mt. Olive Baptist Church in 1896.

1870’s - 1920’s

While the population of the region grew slightly and the local economy began to change, the area remained primarily a farming community. As the transportation of goods shifted from waterways to railways, Cincinnati lost it’s prominence as a central shipping city. Railroads also impacted the economic importance of Symmes Township. Townships once made easily accessible by road and waterway lost prominence as railroads made business elsewhere more convenient. The stage coach stops along the Montgomery Road section of the 3C highway lost popularity, as more passengers chose to travel by train. However, beginning in the 1870’s, the railroads also helped bring new settlers to the Symmes Township area. Some used the area for resort purposes, and others relocated permanently, leading to the incorporation of Loveland in 1876.

New industries also developed in the region. One of these companies, the Victor Stamping Company, built housing for its workers. Named Twightwee, the subdivision was started in 1907 and eventually contained seventeen single story brick houses.

During the same period, local police services expanded. In 1885, the Sixteen Mile Stand Horse Rangers incorporated for the purposes of detecting and arresting “horse-thieves and other criminals.” Prior to this, local constables generally served court papers and made arrests. These constables worked in conjunction with the township Justice of the Peace. By the early twentieth century, constables were an elected position whose services were augmented by organizations such as the Sixteen Mile Stand Horse Rangers. Policing remained a primarily local institution, with approximately 147 police agencies in the greater-Cincinnati area by 1930’s.

In the 1910’s, when Henry Ford’s assembly line made automobiles affordable to more Americans, the area experienced another wave of change. The old stage coach route became popular as an automobile route. During the 1910’s and 1920’s, automobile routes began appearing on state maps. One of Ohio’s most famous motorways was the 3 C Highway, eventually renamed State Route 3. As the popularity of automobile travel increased, businesses catering to automobile passengers developed along Montgomery Road

From this 1850 Census we learn that Sarah Harper did not marry William Cox Irwin until after August 6, 1850.  Also that Martha Harper has already married William R. Baxter, 06 Mar 1850 and they living in same neighborhood as William Cox Irwin. It appears that Martha and Sarah were very close sisters and lived very close to each other all their lives.

James Harper’s will dated 2 August 1839 was probated in Hamilton County, Ohio Probate Court, 7 October 1839.

James Harper will names his 5 daughters, Eliza, Jane, Martha, Sarah and Agnes and his two sons, John and James.  He wills the north division of his property to this eldest son, John and the south division to his youngest child and son, James. 

It appears Eliza is already married and has a home in 1839 since her father does not include her in the division of the furniture upon his wife, Catherine’s death.
