"(The following personal recollections of the early settlement of Highland County were dictated by Aunt Martha Hussey shortly before her death to her sister, Aunt Elizabeth Conard, then of Hillsboro, Ohio, now of Peoria, Illinois. Aunt Martha, as she was called by everyone, lived on her farm about a miles south of Careytown and across the road from Auburn Chapel on what is now the Edwards farm. She died there in February 1890 in her 91st year.)"
"I was born in Randolph County, North Carolina the 13th of October, 1799 and moved to Highland County in October 1805 in company with my father and mother who were Stephen and Mary Underwood Hussey; a little sister and brother younger than myself; Uncle Christopher Hussey and his family; Uncle James Underwood and his family and Uncle Alexander Underwood, a single man."
"We moved in a four-horse wagon and arrived at our destination on election day. We stopped at David Kenworthy's. He was an old friend of ours who had moved to the neighborhood a few weeks earlier. He had moved to Ohio some months earlier and had raised a crop at Salt Creek."
"Father looked around for a place to settle on and soon found one to please him on the headwaters of Clear Creek about one and a half miles from the place we stopped. He bought 300 acres of good land with 'not a stick amiss.' He and Uncle Alexander went to work, cleared off a spot of ground and in a short time had a cabin raised. On the 18th of November brother Joshua was born."
"Salmon Templin, who was our nearest neighbor, lived about one half mile north of us. He moved there in 1804. There was another man by the name of Jesse Baldwin who lived about one and a half miles from our place. William Williams came the same fall we did, also the Sanders family from the same place, and Shadrach Stafford. The Keys family moved from Rockbridge County, Virginia in 1805 and settled on Fall Creek. James and Jacob Griffin moved to our neighborhood soon after Uncle Alexander Underwood went back to North Carolina on a visit the summer of 1806, came back in the fall, and Uncle James Hadley and family moved out with him and settled at the falls of Clear Creek. Nathaniel Pope was living on Hardins Creek when we came, but moved to our neighborhood soon after. Elisha and David Kenworthy, son of the Kenworthys we stayed with when we first came, also moved out in the fall of 1806. In this year Jesse Baldwin donated land to the Friends for a Meeting House and Burying Grounds. They built a large log house, and it stood there until a few years ago. The burying ground is still used and is quite large now."
"In the spring of 1807 my grandfather and grandmother, Stephen Hussey and Martha Chamness Hussey, with their daughter Martha, and son Joshua and family moved from Randolph County, North Carolina and settled where New Vienna now is. In the same fall Uncle Thomas Cox and family moved from near the same place and settled where Snow Hill now is. The same fall Uncle Alexander Underwood and Aunt Martha Hussey were married and settled on some land south of our place. In the spring of 1808 Elisha Johnson and family moved from North Carolina and settled about one mile east of us. In the fall of the same year John Timberlake and his family and hs son-in-law Thomas Bailey and family moved from Virginia and settled near Clear Creek Meeting House. Not much later, Samuel and David Coffin and Gideon Stevens and family moved into the neighborhood. They were all from North Carolina. In this year the first store was opened at Hillsboro by John Smith."
"Grandfather Underwood made a visit in the fall of 1809, and John Timberlake and his wife went to Virginia and brought three grandchildren by the name of Barricks home with them, their mother having died. In 1812 Elisha Johnson and family moved from Lynchburg, Virginia and settled on Clear Creek about two miles southwest of our place. The same year Thomas Rayburn and family moved from Virginia and settled near the same place. In 1814 Evan Lewis and family moved from Virginia and settled about three miles south of us."
"About 1815 several families of the Smithsons moved out fro Virginia and settled on the Trimble land north of our place. In 1816 Grandfather and grandmother Underwood (James and Ruth) moved from Chatham County, North Carolina and settled one mile west of us. In 1816 Samuel Carey and family moved from Virginia and settled one and one half miles northwest of our place. About the same time three of the Wright brothers, Thomas, John and Benjamin, moved from the northern part of the state and settled in our neighborhood.
