1833–1841 · Chapman, Howard, the Atlas

Every settler the three rolls name, in the order the ground received them. 1833: Elijah Lineback (Section 35, Chapman/Atlas); John Henderson (25 Chapman, 26 Atlas); John, Jacob and Mark Rector (Section 1); John Gardner (Section 3, Atlas and Howard; absent from Chapman). 1834: Hubbard Henderson (Section 35); the Moon brothers — James, John and Eli (Sections 27, 28 and 34 and May 1834 in the Atlas; John fall 1834 and spring 1835 with James in Chapman, Eli "some years later"; James permanently resident 1841). 1835–1836: Henry Hardy (spring 1835, Section 34, Atlas; in Chapman's 1836 group); Daniel Glenn (Section 1, 1835 or '6 Atlas, 1836 Chapman); James Annis (Section 9, about 1836); Michael Hupp (Section 34, 1836); Abijah Mills (Section 28, spring 1836); William H. Robertson (Section 33, about 1836); Esau Lamb (Section 19, spring 1836). 1837: Amos Heston; Henry Riddle and John Riddle (Section 2) — the brothers whose surname the township's chief lake carries in its possessive form, the naming itself stated by no work. Named without dates, "among the old settlers": James Watson (before 1841, Section 19 in the Atlas), John Shively (Section 19), William Hughes, Joseph Morris, W. Nickelson (Nicholson in the Atlas), David Whitinger, John Long, Mr. Byers, and Mr. Gibson (Chapman) — "Mr. Gibbons" in the Atlas, the surname conflict registered, Howard dropping the name entirely. The roll is the three works' joint stock; the section and year conflicts among them stand's register, printed whole, and no settler is added from any other carrier.
