LEASE was born Feb. 8, 1824; God saw fit in his providence to call him from this life March 26, 1899, aged 74 years (should read 75 years), 1 month and 18 days. Deceased was the son of Stephen and Susannah GATES Lease, who came to this neighborhood, from Pennsylvania, about 1812. He was one of a family of 12 children, 6 of whom have preceded him to the other shore. He leaves a wife and 8 children to mourn his loss. He was a loving husband, an affectionate father, and a kind and obliging neighbor, and will be missed by all who knew him, but mostly by those who knew him best. He has always lived in sight of the place where he was born. As a son, he was most dutiful, caring for and ministering to the wants of his aged parents until their death. He was married to Cynthia Ann TITSWORTH, Oct. 7, 1865. God has blessed this union for 34 years. Nine children have been born, of whom 8 are still living. *************************************************** From a history of Jefferson Township: J. J. LEASE, farmer; P.O., Bellefontaine; was born in this township Feb. 8, 1825 (1824?); is the son of Stephen and Susannah (Gates) Lease. Stephen was born in 1798 in Pennsylvania, and came West about the year 1812, making his first stand on the farm where John Hoge now lives, where he remained about two years, and then located on the farm now owned by Jacob Lease, where he purchased 290 acres, which was at that time as the primitive forest, in a perfectly wild state; here he built him a cabin, and lived the real life of a frontiersman. John J. lived with his father until his death, and, in fact, since that time has never been very far from the old homestead. The death of his father occurred in 1867, his mother's about ten years afterwards. Oct. 7, 1865, John J. was married to Cynthia A. Tittsworth (sp?), who was born in 1839 in this county; she was a daughter of William and Sarah (Dunston) Tittsworth. Since Mr. Lease's marriage, he has resided on the farm he now owns, which is adjacent to and a part of the original homestead; has eight children -- Stephen, James D., Susanah, Ann, Emma, Dora, Charles and Clara. He has a good farm of 255 acres of land.
