(Witness) Bio

JONATHAN STRETCH, Tippecanoe Township

THOMAS STRETCH, the father of this gentleman, was born in Pennsylvania, January 23, 1784. His father came from Ireland when a mere lad, and for many years was engaged as a school teacher. THOMAS STRETCH was married to MISS ANTHA MUNGER, a native of Vermont, July 27, 1807. His son, JONATHAN, with whom we are more directly interested in this sketch, was born in Champaign County, Ohio, November 7, 1817. From that place, he moved with his parents to Miami County, Ohio, in 1818, thence to Butler County, Ohio, and from that point to Tippecanoe County, Ind., in 1830, with his parents, five brothers and three sisters, of whom all are now deceased, save the subject of this sketch, and one sister, MRS. EMILY GRAVES.

In 1846, MR. STRETCH united in marriage with MISS DELILAH KNIGHT of Carroll County, Ind. His wife is of Irish descent and was born in Miami County, Ohio, removing to Carroll County, Ind., with her parents, at the age of 7 years remaining a citizen of that county until the date of her marriage. They have five children living, viz.: FANNIE, FLORA, JESSIE, ETHEL and LOUI. From early youth, MR. STRETCH has been engaged in the pursuit of farming. That he has been successful in his chosen avocation is witnessed by his fine farm and the evidence of comfort by which he is surrounded. His upright character has not failed to secure him friends among those with whom he has been associated, and his standing in the community is first class.
