Misc. Notes
I’ve place the information in date order however if you skip down to the end you will find the entries for 1844 & 1846 all of his children are listed. The other entries here just try to confirm ages and wives, marriages and in my family’s interest, wife Sarah’s information and William Jackson Ollom’s link to this family. No records were kept in the early years. No census was taken until 1820. The records that were destroyed in the 1867 fire of the Monroe County Court House were the Probate Records: marriage, birth, wills and death. The Deed Records and Common Pleas Court Records are still available. The more records I find, the happier I am.

1790: HEADS OF FAMILIES AT THE FIRST CENSUS OF THE UNITED STATES TAKEN IN THE YEAR 1790 PENNSYLVANIA, BUCKS COUNTY
Name of head of family: Ollam, Jacob
Free white males of 16 years and upward, including heads of families: 1
Free white males under 16 years: 1
Free white females, including heads of families: 1

Jacob Ollom appears to have listed himself his wife and a male (First son?) under 16 years old listed on the census of 1790.

Many people seem to believe that Jacob Sr’s sons, Peter, John and Jacob, Jr. moved to Western Pennsylvania and settled on Ten Mile Creek, a tributary of the Monongahela River. I’m inclined to believe that the Jacob Jr. on Ten Mile Creek is the son of Peter.

1795: [abt 1795?] Extract from Howe’s Historical Collections of Ohio, Historical Sketches from Settlement to 1888. Monroe County, Ohio, published about 1888.

The first Settlement of which there is any well-authenticaed history was made in 1791. Philip Witten, a brother-inlaw of the noted Indian scouts and fighters, Kinsey and Vachtel Cickenson, in 1791 settled in Jackson township. He came here with his family from Wheeling, and his descendants still live on the same farm. The next settlement, in order of time, was on Buckhill bottom, in 1794, and was made by Robert Mc Eldowney, who was soon followed by Jacob Vellom [OLLOM] and others. Settlements were made at and near the mouth of Sunfish creek and Opossum creek, by the Vandwarters [Vandevanters], Henthornes, Atkinsons and others about the years 1798-9. About 1802 a settlement was made on the site of Calais. An improvement had been made there in 1798, by Aaron Dillie, from Dillie's bottom, Belmont county. About the same time a settlement was made by Michael Crow and others on Clear Fork creek. Cline’s settlement on the Little Muskingumwas begun about the year 180; that at and around the site at Beallsville at about the same time, and Dye’s settlement, in Perry township.

[Penny’s note: Jacob’s son, Joseph, married Margaret "Peggy" Henthorn and Joseph’s son, Adam, married Harriet Atkinson.]

Early Settlements

The first permanent settlement of which there is authentic history was made in 1791. Settlements were made across the Ohio River at Sistersville, West Virginia, and at this point, a ferry was established in 1804.

Philip Witten, a brother-in-law of the noted scouts and Indian fighters, Kinsey and Vachel Dickenson (having married their sister), settled along the Ohio River in what is now Jackson Township.

The next settlement was on Buckhill Bottom in 1794 and was made by Robert McEldowney, who was soon followed by Jacob Ullom and others. Settlements were made at and near the mouth of Sunfish and Opossum Creeks by the Vandevanters, Henthorns, Atkinsons, and others at about 1798-1799. A settlement was made in 1802 where
the Town of Calais now stands.

A settlement was made at about the same time by Michael Crow and others on Clear Fork Creek, Cline's settlement, on the Little Muskingum River, was begun about the year 1805. The settlement where Beallsville now stands and Dye's settlement in Perry Township were made at about the same time, Few of its present inhabitants can realize the hardships endured by the early settlers of the county. Being without mills, they were compelled to resort to grating corn for bread in the early fall and, when too hard for that, to hominy, pounding it in large wooden mortars called "hominy blocks" with iron wedges on the ends of round sticks of wood for a pestle. "Hog and hominy", "johnny cake", wild game, mush, and milk constituted their chief diet. When hand mills were introduced, they were, indeed, a great acquisition but the horse mills were a still greater acquisition. At that time, every farmer had his own flock of sheep and a patch of flax. The wool was carded with hand-cards, spun and woven at home, and made into garments. Nice suits were made of "fulled cloth" and nice gowns for women were made of "pressed flannel". The flax was pulled, spread out in rows on the ground, "rotted", and then "broken and swingled" -- thus preparing it for combing and the "little wheel" as the machine was called on which the flax was spun to distinguish it from the larger machine for spinning wool. It was woven into cloth for table covers, toweling, sheeting,
and shirting.

1810: From one Catherine Fedorchalk’s books, in the series, Monroe County Ohio Records: Newspaper Transcription of The Spirit of Democracy, Issue of July 22, 1873:

Buckhill bottom is about midway between Sunfish and Baresville. Its name was a matter of record as long ago as 1780. It is said by the old settlers that on this elevation the Indians had a look-out point from which they killed deer, and from this, it got its name.

From the "Old Settler:"
Our last communication was from the foot of Buckhill Botton where a run empies into the river known as Ollum’s Run, near the mouth of which years ago lived Old Mr. Jacob Ollom, one of the early pioneers of this county. He used to supply the settlement with salt, which he brought from Harper’s Ferry and Williamsport on the Potomac River on horseback. He would load 3 or 4 horses with furs, ginseng, etc and cross the mountains by trail exchanging his commodities for salt and a few other necessaries, such as coffee, and then return to the settlement with his supplies. It would take several weeks to accomplish the trip. When night overtook him, he would unload his horses and turn them loose to feed and with his flint and punk strike a fire and with his gun procure game for his supper then lie down by the fire and rest till morning. I have often heard the old settlers say that they paid him $5.00 a bushel for salt.

Back of the botton is a hill called Frenchmans hill, where a frenchman by the name of Mozeny settled at and early age. Some of his descendants still live here. The Mozenys, Harrisons and others all related formed a settlement many years ago. Old Mr. Isaac Harrison father...

The distance between Martinsburg, WV (near where his father died) and Williamsport, MD is about 16 miles.
The distance between Williamsport, MD and Clarington, OH is 234.9 miles and in the year 2000 with the speed limits at about 65 miles per hour. we could drive it in 4 hours and 25 minutes.

It appears Jacob died in 1840 but his estate wasn’t settled until 1846. Sarah may have married John S. Stewart about then.

His surname changed from Ulm to Ollom however the only place I’ve actually found his name spelled "Ollom" was on his estate settlement papers and Land records if I can determine which one(s) are his. The surname many of his chldren used was Ollum and his grandchildren now use Ollom.

---------- Ollum (Ollem) - Possum Creek Cemetery, Salem Twp., Clarington Ohio ---------
PERSI Entry:
Ollom Cemetery article in Navagator, Vol 2 Issue 2 June 1989.

John Mozena's grave site is located in the Ollum(Ollem) - Possum Creek cemetery located south of
Clarington, Ohio (Salem Twp.) on Monroe CR26, approximately 1.2 miles west of State Route 7.
His original gravestone is engraved as follows: "In memory of John Mozeney Who departed this life Feb. 3d, 1830. In the 83d year of his Age." His gravestone had been restored by the Ohio Historical Society and has his surname spelled "Mozena." This is the spelling that has been carried on by modern day family. John moved his family to Monroe County, Ohio and took a half section of land on a ridge west of Buckhill Bottom which was two miles north of Hannibal, Ohio.


1880 According to the 1880 Census Jacob Ollom’s children say he was born in Pennsylvania.

The Olloms and Atkinsons Come to Ohio

If Jacob Ollom, Jr. and Robert McEldowney had followed the line surveyed by Mason and Dixon so 30 years before, their trip from Greene County, Pa. to establish a settlement at Buckhill Bottom on the Ohio River would have been some 200 miles shorter. Instead, they left their home on Ten Mill [Mile?] Creek near Fort ____________ and headed down the Monongahela River towards Pittsburgh. Thence, __________ out into the broad Ohio and downstream where they heard glorious tales of the new wonderland opened up by the Ohio Company at Marietta.

When the Penn family of Pennsylvania and the Lords Baltimore of Maryland decided to hire Mason and Dixon English mathematicians and astronomers to establish the meridian, Latitude 39 degrees, 43 minutes and 26.3 seconds as the dividing line between their properties, the present boundries of these two states were not only established , but they ended their project 36 miles from the Ohio River and at a point near the upper end of Buckhill Bottom. One of the original markers has been established on West Virginia Route 2 at Proctor, and is a historical item for present-day tourists.

As the river reaches Buckhill, the stream makes a long sweep to the east, gradually swinging southwest and forming the bottomland. At the end of this curve in the river, Jacob Ollom drifted into the eddy and came ashore to claim Section 20 Range 3, Township 2 of the government land know as the Survay of the Seven Ranges. (see map on page 69 of this book) George Washington in 1770 had made a prelininary survey through this country for his friend, Lord Fairfax, who owned the Virginia grants bounded by the Ohio river. Historical markers attest to the first president’s having been there. These tracts were government controlled after the Revolutions and called Congress Lands and bounded the Ohio Company’s Purchase to the north.

Thus in 1794 the second settlement in Monroe C. was established, Peter Witten having made the first in 1791a short distance downstream in Jackson Township. Returning to Greene Co. Pa. the following year, Ollom interested other settlers of that region in the new country along the western frontier and soon a number of families were talking of making the trip to Ohio. Amoung these were the Atkinson brothers James and Charles (See Vol. II) sons of Cornelius and Mary Cross Atkinson. It was these two men who first settled on the Ohio river at the mouth of Sunfish Creek, about four miles up-stream from the Ollom homestead at Buckhill Bottom. Two generations later, these two “first families” of Salem Township, Monroe County, Ohio, were to be united through the marriage of Adam H. Ollom and Harriet Atkinson, which took place at Cameron, August 12 1865, with John J. Hurd justice of the peace, performing the ceremony*

With the comming of additional and more numerous settlers to his territory , Jacob _______________________ a merchandising business. Hardesty’s History relates on page 215 how Jacob engaged in the business of packing salt over the Allegheny mountains on pack horses. He went to Williamsport on the Potomac River, a distance

*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mr. Charles R. Wetzel, 107 Circle Drive, Marietta, Ohio 45750 sent me this material for use in this volume. As an engineer and surveyor the Mason and Dixon line has always fascinated him, and the fact that it tied into the locale of the Ollom Atkinson families, made it doulbly interesting. He and his wife lived for a time at Buckhill Bottom, and Adam and Harriet Atkinson Ollom were the grandparents of his wife, Mary Ollom Wetzel. Mr Wetzel also has much information on Martin Wetzel, older brother of the legendary Lewis Wetzel, famed Indian fighter.

of 200 miles, taking with him skins and furs and returning with salt, camping wherever night overtook him. He thus supplied settlers on the Monroe county riverfront with salt and other articles for several years, receiving for his salt from three to four dollars a bushel. Little did Ollom realize in those days that his new homestead on the Ohio river was sitting atop a bed of salt some 100 feet thick and extending from Grafton, W.Va. to the Great Lakes - but at a depth of around 7,000. Some 140 years later engineers would devise means of forcing this salt to the surface near the original Ollom settlement and some of Jacob’s descendants would help in the process.

Mrs. Anna Howell, who died in 1880 at the age of 106, and who lived near Hannibal, Ohio gave the author of Hardesty’s History much of the background information on Jacob Ollom, Jr since she knew this pioneer resident personally. The U. S. Census of 1850 reveal Ann Howell was living in Salem township residing with Andrew and Elizabeth Spear, and Ann’e [sic] age was listed as 80 years on this census, she was born in Pa. about 1770.

The family names of Ollom and Ullom are widely known and used today, but it is interesting to trace the different spelling used in the past, such as Woolam, Whollum, Woolum, and Ollum. In the book, “A Collection of 30,000 Names of German Swiss and French Immigrants in Pa. from 1727 to 1776” by Prof. Daniel Rupp, published in 1876, page 469 we find one Adam Sollom (Ollom) listed as a member of the German Reformed Church, between 1735 and 1755. Tulpehocken, Berks and Lebanon counties in Pa. This is the earliest reference to a probable member of the Ollom family in America, unless the Mathias Ulland found on page 61 of Rupp‘s book can be proved an Ollum. We do know that their heritage is of the Pennsylvania Dutch.

Mr Howard L. Leckey, in his book “Tem Mile Country and its Pioneer Families” published by the Waynesburg Republican, Waynesburg, Pa. (Page 69, Vol VI) states that the will of Jacob Woolam is on file in Berkeley Co. West Virginia at the Martinsburg courthouse - Will Book 1, page 150. This will was made April 13, 1778 and filed for probate on Nov. 17, 1778. He names his wife Magdelina and his children (he was born in 1715 in Berkeley Co. (W) Va.) Balser Woolam, Mathias Woolam, Wendel Woolam, Peter woolam, Shem Woolam, Daniel Woolam, John Woolam, Jacob WOOLAM, Jr., Juliana, wife of Jacob Shillengood, Magdelina, wife of Wm. Morrisey and Hannah Woolam.

According to Mrs. Ida Wollam, 2693 SE 5th Ave., West Linn, Oregon, the parents of Jacob and Magdalina Woolam were born in Karlsruhe, Baden Germany in 1684 and were in Berkeley Co. Va. by 1704 - according to her, this information was taken from microfilm of the German Lutherna church in Karlsruhe Baden for that period, said records now preserved in the Salt Lake City general library. She also stated that Mrs. Florence Weimer, of Waynesburg, Pa., now deceased gave to the Green Co. Historical Society Library, N. Morgan Street, Waynesburg, Pa. 15370. a complete lineage and history of her family, that of the Peter Ullom branch. Mr Leckey’s book also has more information on the line through Peter Ullom.

Mrs. Ida Wollam has also supplied the information that Baltzer Wollam (Balzer Ollom) oldest son of Jacob and Magdelina Woolam was born in 1742 and married Mary Weaver. They had a son, Jacob, born in 1792, who married Ruth Spahr, who was born in 1795. They had 9 or 10 children, 5 of whom settled in Iowa.

-- [bottom of page] 108 -

Adam H. Ollom, grandson of Jacob Ollom, Jr, was born Nov. 25, 1830 and died Feb 8, 1809. His wife, Harriett Atkinson Ollom, was born December 25, 1840, and died December 17, 1928. Both are buried in the Rutter cemetary, between Clarington and Cameron. (see Vol. II page 28 for transcriptions from this cemetery.)

Adam H. Ollom was a member of Company E, 116th Regiment of the Ohio Volunteer Infantry in the Civil War and was present at the surrender of Robert E. Lee at Appomattox Courthouse. He was the subject of several Civil War articles in the news media upon the occasion of the 100th anniversary of that war’s end in 1965. Adam and Harriet Ollom had the following children.
Charles Ollom - born August 23, 1866 - died May 5, 1952
James F. Ollom - born May 5, 1868 - died Feb. 8, 1941
William Ollom - born Aug. 20, 1872, died Aug 17, 1937
Matthew Ollom, born Nov. 8, 1874, died June 14, 1934
