Philip Creamer
Philip Creamer, farmer, Jeffersonville, son of Michael Creamer, was born in this township, November 8, 1812. In April, 1849, he was married to Miss Margaret Morrison, daughter of David Morrison. They have a family of eight children: Martha O., Mary J., Libbie A., Louisa J., Rachel E., James M., Samuel M., and David M. The daughters are all married.
Mr. Creamer has a farm of one hundred and fourteen acres, well improved, situated about a mile west of Jeftersonville. Himself, wife, and three of the daughters, are exemplary members of the Methodist Protestant Church, which the two elders joined some twenty years since—being yet zealous in the faith. Mr. Creamer has seen much of Fayette County's rapid improvements, and has participated in making many of them. When he was a young man there were no railroads or pikes, the school houses were log, with puncheon floor and seats, the windows were made of greased paper, pasted over a large crack in the wall, made by cutting away half of a log. All these have given place to more comfortable and modern-built structures.
