    • Jacob R. Hisey, farmer: P. O. Waynesville; born on the farm where he now lives, April 3 1850; is a son of Joseph and Maria (Herr) Hisey, he a native of Virginia and she of Maryland. The grandfather, Jacob Hisey, was also a native of Virginia, and was a son of Christopher Hisey, who was a soldier in the war of the Revolution. The maternal grandfather, Abraham Herr, was a native of Lancaster Co., Penn., and was a son of Tudolph Herr. Abraham first moved into the State of Maryland, thence emigrated to Ohio and located in the south part of Greene County in 1836, and in 1837 moved into Warren County, then to the State of Indiana, and about 1867, became a resident of Miami Co., Ohio, where he died in 1873, aged 73 years. The grandfather, Jacob Hisey, emigrated to Ohio in 1818 and located on the place where our subject now lives. This land was then all in the woods, and he began in a true pioneer and log cabin life, and here he labored and toiled, and before his death was permitted to see a good, cultivated farm, with good buildings and improvements, and to enjoy the general comforts of life. He died in 1869, age 84 years. Joseph, his son, was 4 years of age when brought to this county, and here was raised and grew to manhood, accustomed to the hardships of those early days; was married, and became the father of two children—Jacob R. and Jemima E. Mr. Hisey bought the old home place of his father, and there he resided till his death, April 14, 1878, aged 64 years; his wife died Dec. 18 1874, aged 50 years. Our subject, born and raised where he now lives, was married, April 19 1877, to Miss Amanda Jane, daughter of John T. and Eliza English, natives of Ross Co., Ohio. The grandfather, John English, was a native of Virginia, but emigrated to Ohio about 1810. John T. and Eliza English had six children; four now survive—Amanda Jane, John Milton, Henry and Charles. Mr. English now resides in Dayton, Ohio, where he has lived the last seven years; he is a carpenter by trade, and is now 67 years of age. Mr Hisey resides on the old homestead farm, which he has taken since his father's death, and has bought the interest of his sister, the only heir. This farm has now been in possession of the Hisey family for sixty-three years.
