• Notes

  ...At the beginning of the 18th century Deerfield was the most important place on the Little Miami above Columbia. It was made a stopping-place for many of the early settlers in different parts of the county. Early emigrants frequently left their families at Deerfield while the first improvements were being made on their new farms. ...Captain John Spencer settled on Turtle Creek on Section 9, near the northern boundary of this township, in 1796. His wife, Ann Spencer, was a daughter of Captain Robert Benham. Captain Spencer served in the war of 1812, and died April 22, 1835.
