| 1201 | _____ "John A. Clontz was an Elder in the Presbyterian Church, and we believe records show that each succeeding generation has produced at least one Elder. John A. and Martha Blair first settled at the old Clontz homestead near where Goose Creek flows into Rocky River, but later moved to the old Blair home, now known as the late John E. Haigler place. They had to following children; Jeremiah, John, Jacob, James, Lynn and Isaac. The girls were: Matilda, Hettie, Sarah, Josephine and Mollie. All of them are deceased with exception of Isaac A., who is in his 79th year. The Clontz family has been represented in every war that the United Sates has ever fought. Jeremiah and George asnwered when England tried to oppress the Colonies and some of the family was in both wars with Mexico. When thhe South called for volunteers in 1861 - James, Jerry, Lynn and Isaac answered and went with their comrades and stood and fought for what they thought to be right. And when the call of 1917 came their grandsons; Guy Clontz, the Williams boys, the McManaway boys, the Helms boys and many others of whom we have no record, answered and were in the Wolrd War. The Clontz' have not only been patriotic, but men of courage, patience and perseverance. They have been loyal citizens and true to every noble cause....The family has inherited a great reponsibility and a great trust has been handed down from generation to generation. The family may be likened to a River that flows thru the desert...its waters giving life and beauty to all." Rev. Ralph C.

|
| 1212 | _____ Have tentatively assigned "James Marion" as son of "Jeremiah" for the following reasons; (1) Herman James Clontz, Jr., grandson of James Marion, states in a telephone interview, November 18, 1992, that he could not identify his great-grandfather, but he is certain that he married a "Byram". (2) Thelma Clonts identifies the wife of Jeremiah as "Mary L. Byram" and their marriage occurred, August 11, 1864, per her research. Will obtain marriage records to ascertain location, witnesses, etc. Although this is not absolute proof, feel that circumstantial evidence provide enough to deduct James Marion and his progeny to the main famly tree. _____ | Clontz, James Marion (I11788)

Mary has married three times before 1870. 2. William, Sarah & Perniellia are misidentified with "Clontz" surnames. 3. Don't know who Jacob is. He could have been a Tidwell. 4. Property probably belonged to her father, Jacob, before she married. _____ | Clonts, Mary Ellen "Polly" (I9663)
