Mrs Merritt died on Monday, Jan. 3, 87, in her 78th year. She came to this township with

her husband in 1850, and we have been told that Mr. and Mrs. Merritt were the first white

people that settled in this township. Mr. Merritt died in 1875. The land on which they

settled in 1850, just south of Mr. Weller's place, they got direct from the United States

government. They both lived in this township from the time they first settled here until

the day of their death.
