    • History of Seneca County, Ohio, Venice Township

      V. F. LEONARD, farmer, Attica, was born in Harrison County, Ohio, November 16, 1825. His parents, Avery and Nancy (Smith) LEONARD, were natives of Washington County, Penn. Our subject came to Venice Township, this county, with his parents, when a small boy of nine years, when this country was a dense wilderness, where was heard the howl of the wolf, growl of the bear, and the "yowling" of the wild cat, while before them stood the sturdy forest tree that-would yield only to persistent toil. His educational facilities were very limited, and being reared on the farm, he has steadily followed agricultural pursuits, being at present owner of 101 acres of well-improved land. He has also devoted much attention to the handling of imported horses, and has paid as much as $2,000 for one horse. W. F. LEONARD was married, in 1849, to Margaret Jane Moors, daughter of Maurice Moore, a native of Hunterdon, N. J., and Hannah (Davis) Moore, of Wales, the former of whom died in 1883, in his eighty-sixth year, and the latter in 1882, in her eighty-third year. Mrs. LEONARD's parents came to this county and settled on a farm in this township in 1834; she is a member of the United Brethren Church, and has been for more than forty years. AN'. F. LEONARD, during the late war of the Rebellion, enlisted, in 1863, in Company C, One Hundred and Sixty-fourth Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and served for 100 days. In politics he is a Republican.z
