WM Transcript 4/28/92 WORTHINGTON PUBLIC LIBRARY 62 805 Hartford Street Worthington, OH 43085 HISTORIES OF STRUCTURES in WORTHINGTON AND SHARON TOWNSHIP by ROBERT W. McCORMICK Worthington, Ohio March 1992 WORTHINGTON PUBLIC LIBRARY ---page break--- WorthingtonMemory.org page 2 of 476 PREFACE Every structure has a history, but very old structures are not necessarily historically significant. They may simply be old, Determining which structures to preserve and which to demolish involves making judgments about which are historically significant and which are not. Arriving at these judgments often involves a public forum in which both factual and emotional inputs are obtained. Presented herein is factual material related to the historical background of Worthington and Sharon Township structures. The fact that a structure is included in this compilation does not imply that the structure should be preserved at all costs. While the author of this publication admits he is basically a preservationist, he is most concerned that decisions about preservation or demolition of structures should be based upon the best available evidence. Citizens rightfully expect public officials to explain their reasons for deciding to preserve or demolish "old" buildings. This document deals primarily with the historical background of structures. While the architectural significance of a structure is certainly an important consideration, this publication does not speak to that dimension. Primary sources of data have been utilized in the development of this publication. Deed records, mortgage records, tax records, plat maps, census data, village and city council minutes, village and county directories, manuscript collections, and contemporary newspaper accounts have been utilized. Some published histories have been utilized to describe the family backgrounds and activities of some of the owners and occupants of these structures. A list of the sources used is shown for each property. Most of the structures in this publication are nineteenth- century structures. In some cases the determination that a structure was constructed after 1900 was apparent only after the research was completed, so these structures have been included. The format of this publication is designed so that modifications can be made in the historical description of the structures listed and structures can be added as future research provides additional data. The author calls attention to the copyright notice on the following page. The author grants use of these materials and the WorthingtonMemory.org page 3 of 476 right to reproduce these materials without violation of copyright to appointed and elected officials of the City of Worthington when the material is being used to conduct the official business of the City of Worthington.

The current address of this property is 7844 Flint Road and the current owner is Mr. Jerry Durham. When the Scioto Company partitioned the farm lots and inlots on 11 August 1804, William Thompson was granted farm lot 43, as well as a number of additional farm lots and inlots. There were 124 acres in farm lot 43. William Thompson from Blanford, Massachusetts, settled on this farm lot. William Thompson became an associate judge of the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas. This farm became the property of William Thompson's son, Charles Thompson before 1826, since Charles Thompson paid real estate taxes on this property for that year. Charles Thompson died 14 October 1830, and his son Henry owned the land until he sold it to Lewis Johnson, his brother-in-law in 1843. On 14 May 1844, Lewis and Pamelia Johnson sold 105 acres, part of lot 43 and part of lot 58 to Jonas H. Hammond for $650.00. WorthingtonMemory.org page 7 of 476 On 1 August 1857, Jonas H. and Elmina Hammond sold one acre and ten square poles, part of lot 43, to Samuel W. Gardner for $45.00. There was no structure on this property given the sale price of $45.00. Both the 1856 and 1872 plat maps of Sharon Township show a structure on this lot and also show a "wagon and blacksmith shop." Samuel W. Gardner continued to own this property until he sold it to Maria L. Andrews 1 April 1881. At that time Samuel Gardner was a widower living in Columbus. CONCLUSION The evidence indicates that this house was built circa 1856- 1857. The physical appearance of the structure is consistent with this date of construction. Ozem Gardner, father of Samuel W. Gardner, was a staunch Methodist, active in the underground railway which assisted African-American slaves escaping to Canada. He also burned brick in the Flint area.

  • A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD
    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine.

  • The Wesleyan Enlightenment
    The Wesleyan Enlightenment: Closing the gap between heart religion and reason in Eighteenth Century England by Timothy Wayne Holgerson B.M.E., Oral Roberts University, 1984 M.M.E., Wichita State University, 1986 M.A., Asbury Theological Seminary, 1999 M.A., Kansas State University, 2011 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Abstract John Wesley (1703-1791) was an Anglican priest who became the leader of Wesleyan Methodism, a renewal movement within the Church of England that began in the late 1730s. Although Wesley was not isolated from his enlightened age, historians of the Enlightenment and theologians of John Wesley have only recently begun to consider Wesley in the historical context of the Enlightenment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between a man, John Wesley, and an intellectual movement, the Enlightenment. As a comparative history, this study will analyze the juxtaposition of two historiographies, Wesley studies and Enlightenment studies. Surprisingly, Wesley scholars did not study John Wesley as an important theologian until the mid-1960s. Moreover, because social historians in the 1970s began to explore the unique ways people experienced the Enlightenment in different local, regional and national contexts, the plausibility of an English Enlightenment emerged for the first time in the early 1980s. As a result, in the late 1980s, scholars began to integrate the study of John Wesley and the Enlightenment. In other words, historians and theologians began to consider Wesley as a serious thinker in the context of an English Enlightenment that was not hostile to Christianity.

  • Pdf\Preparatory\Charles Wesley Book Catalogue Pub.Wpd
    Proceedings of the Charles Wesley Society 14 (2010): 73–103. (This .pdf version reproduces pagination of printed form) Charles Wesley’s Personal Library, ca. 1765 Randy L. Maddox John Wesley made a regular practice of recording in his diary the books that he was reading, which has been a significant resource for scholars in considering influences on his thought.1 If Charles Wesley kept such diary records, they have been lost to us. However, he provides another resource among his surviving manuscript materials that helps significantly in this regard. On at least four occasions Charles compiled manuscript catalogues of books that he owned, providing a fairly complete sense of his personal library around the year 1765. Indeed, these lists give us better records for Charles Wesley’s personal library than we have for the library of brother John.2 The earliest of Charles Wesley’s catalogues is found in MS Richmond Tracts.3 While this list is undated, several of the manuscript hymns that Wesley included in the volume focus on 1746, providing a likely time that he started compiling the list. Changes in the color of ink and size of pen make clear that this was a “growing” list, with additions being made into the early 1750s. The other three catalogues are grouped together in an untitled manuscript notebook containing an assortment of financial records and other materials related to Charles Wesley and his family.4 The first of these three lists is titled “Catalogue of Books, 1 Jan 1757.”5 Like the earlier list, this date indicates when the initial entries were made; both the publication date of some books on the list and Wesley’s inscriptions in surviving volumes make clear that he continued to add to the list over the next few years.

  • The American Church and the Formation of the Anglican Communion, 1823-1853
    The American Church and the Formation of the Anglican Communion, 1823-1853 By the Reverend Robert Semple Bosher, Ph.D. Evanston, Illinois: Seabury-Western Theological Seminary, 1962 I In John Dryden’s poem The Hind and the Panther, there is a passage that ridicules the Church of England for her friendless isolation in Christendom: “Thus, like a creature of a double kind, In her own labyrinth she lives confined; To foreign lands no sound of her is come, Humbly content to be despised at home.” But a century and a half later, we find John Henry Newman quoting those same lines, and asserting: “That day of rebuke is passed. That which is fruitful lives; the English Church, the desolate one, has children . This is our own special rejoicing in our American relations; we see our own faces reflected back to us in them, and we know that we live. We have proof that the Church, of which we are, is not the mere creation of the State, but has an independent life, with a kind of her own, and fruit after her own kind. Men do not gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles; the stream does not rise higher than the spring; if her daughter can be, though the State does not protect, the mother too could bear to be deserted by it ... The American Church is our pride as well as our consolation.”1 The special role of the American Church in the evolution of modern Anglicanism has not been fully recognized, largely because the history of the Anglican Communion has not yet been written.
