Henry Frische


Henry Frische, who married a sister of Mrs. Henry Miller, came with Mr. Miller to Washington township, and located on a quarter section of land adjoining that of Mr. Miller. Mr. Frische afterward went to Hamilton County to work, as the settlement in which he had located was new and wild, offering but little opportunity of earning anything. He died in 1852, leaving his widow with three children; one of these died a few days after the father. Mrs. Frische and her two remaining sons continued to manage the farm, and even afterward purchased an adjoining 400 acres, on which they erected a fine farm residence, reflecting credit upon the management of Mrs. Frische. In 1871 she married Henry W. Taeusch, of Wapakoneta, after which she removed to town, where she still resides.
