Jachomyer Baldwin
Jachomyer Baldwin, farmer, is the fifth child, and second son, of Jonah and Mary (Bland) Baldwin, natives of Virginia. He was born August 20, 1815, near where he now resides. His parents and grandparents came to Ohio from Virginia, in 1812, and settled on Paint Creek, on what is known as the Baldwin and Wallace survey, and where Jachomyer yet resides.
Our subject is of a family of eight children, three sons and five daughters. The sons were John, Jachomyer, and Joseph. The last-named lives in Adams County, Indiana. John died some years since. Nancy, the youngest daughter, married Benjamin Corson, and died in 1854, leaving four children. The biography of her son, Jonah B., appears elsewhere. Our subject's four sisters still live. He enjoys the reputation of a hard-working, honest man.
