MILLER ARROWSMITH, of Farmer Township,was born in Champaign County, Ohio, March 14,1808, and was married in the same county, July 1,1832, to Miss Celinda Caraway, also a native of the same county. Mrs. A. died at Defiance, August 10,1847. The first visit of Mr. Arrowsmith to the Maumee Valley was in June, 1833. He then bought land near Defiance, on which he settled in October following. Judge John Perkins was then County Surveyor, and because of age, and being engaged in other pursuits, he did not wish to perform the work of the office, and appointed Mr. Arrowsmith Deputy County Surveyor, the duties of which he discharged with accuracy and fidelity during a period of fifteen years. He is one of the oldest Surveyors in Northwestern Ohio. The General Assembly of Ohio, at its session of 1845-46, elected Mr. Arrowsmith a member of the State Board of Equalization, and he proved one of the most efficient members of that, body. From 1848 to 1852, he was Auditor of Defiance County and Postmaster at Arrowsmith, during a period of about fifteen years. Excepting minor offices, those enumerated fill the measure o£ his public life. Mr. Arrowsmith might have continued in office, and filled a larger space in the public eye, but his tastes and inclinations led him, in 1852, to engage in agriculture, and in this favorite pursuit, on his well-cultivated acres, and among books and friends, in Farmer Township, he is spending the evening of his days. He is now in his seventy-sixth year, and quite vigorous and active. The pioneers of the valley are ever specially welcome under his hospitable roof. Contributed by Mary Joan (#47178922)
