THOMAS UNGLESBY, farmer; P. O. Red Lion; was born in Clear Creek Township, Warren Co., Ohio, April 21, 1844. His parents were William and Margaret (Sheets) Unglesby, natives of Virginia. They were both of English descent and among the early settlers of Warren County. His father was a very prosperous farmer, during the short part of his life in which he was able to attend to business, but for thirty years previous to his death, he was so afflicted as to totally incapacitate him for business. He died in 1873, in Turtle Creek Township, and left a fine farm of 110 acres, which he had acquired by honest toil during the years of his usefulness. Our subject received a very good common school education, and commenced working on the farm, in which employment he has since continued, now possessing a farm of 82 acres. He married Miss Sarah J. Brown, a native of Wayne Co., Ind. Mr. Unglesby was the sixth child in a family of eight children, whose names were as follows: Martha, Marcus, John (deceased), Joseph, Silas, Harry, Thomas (our subject) and Wilson. The survivors are all married and doing well, and reside in Warren County. Silas and Joe served in the late rebellion in the volunteer infantry quota of Ohio. Our subject also served in repelling John Morgan in his raid on the North. |
