[Harrison County]  [Leesburg Precinct]

J. M. BOYER, farmer, P. O. Connersville.  Among the early settlers of
Harrison County was Jacob Boyer.  He was a great usefulness in his day,
and dying left a son named John, who married, and the union producing
J. M. Boyer, the subject of this sketch, in 1845.  His parents dying
when he was five years old, he underwent an orphanage, and has had to
struggle for a place in life.  How well he has succeeded will be
understood when we tell that he now is the owner of 337 acres of land two
and one-half miles northeast of Connersville, handsomely improved, and
fine productive soil.  He married Miss Sarah E. Allen, daughter of David
Allen, of Harrison County.  By this union they have eight living children,
viz: Mary E., Johnnie, Alice C., Perry David, Jacob, Emma; Mattie died
in 1877; Allen and Sarah E.  He and his wife are worthy and consistent
members of the Christian Church at Leesburg.  He affiliates with the
Democratic party, and as an evidence of the confidence and esteem in
which he is held by his neighbors, he was made, and served in the office
of Treasurer of the Grange of which he was a member for a long time.
