Abraham Bales, father of Jacob Bales and grandfather of Solomon, Philip and Daniel Bales, came to Wayne county in the fall of 1811 on horseback, and then seventy-five years old, from Lebanon county, Pa., and entered all the land between Solomon Bales' and West Lebanon-993 acres; buying in addition to this a quarter section in Stark county. He died with his son, Caleb Bales, in Wayne county, at the age of eighty-eight. These 993 acres were divided among nine children, Jacob receiving the 145 acres where Daniel Bales now lives.

Again in respect to the maternal side of tile family of Thomas Dill (1800.1877) it is suggested a1tlIough not proved it was Abraham Beals-(his grand father) who was reprimanded by the Friends in Huntington meeting, York County, Pennsylvania (II'I.JI. 1769) .for nbing guilty of dancing and be produced an acknowledgement to be read (12·9·1769). Again an Abraham Beals was tater complained of (4-10·1773) for marriage by a priest to one not a member" and he was denounced for that offense (7-10-1773) and read out of meeting because "he was married to Rebecca not a Friend" (See Records of Baltimore Anrru.a1 in Vaults of
the Society, Baltimore, Maryland).
A second record in Wayne County, Ohio, of Abraham Beals is found on a deed dated 15 June 1824 and another in' 1827, in which he and his wife ReIbecca sign their names wtth an x mark. There is another conveyance, dated 15 March 1836, in which Abraham conveys property in Wayne County to his daughter Lydia and his son-in-law, George Speidle, and is not joined in the deed by his wife Rebecca, who evidently had died. (Book of Deeds Vol. 6 p. 74 and Vol. 52 p. 649 and Book O. p. 235, Wayne
County, Ohio).

Jacob Bales was born in Lebanon county, Pa., 1787, and removed to Wayne county in 1812, locating on the farm now owned by his son Daniel. He was married October 5, 1812, to Sada Bowers, of Lebanon county, Pa., and died March 11, 1871, having had born to him nine children, three sons and six daughters. He had seven brothers and one sister, all of whom are dead. Caleb was his youngest brother, and died in Surgarcreek township during the summer of 1876. Jacob lived fifty-nine years upon the old homestead, and during that time not a death occurred among the members of his family, which was composed of nine children, although three have died since his death. His wife died June 2, 1874, and at the time of his death he had eighty-six grandchildren.
He was Justice of the Peace of Paint township for a great many years, was an old time Whig and an active politician. He had many a spirited contest in the local elections of Paint, notably with James Pinkerton, whom he successively defeated until the "labeled bottles" entered the canvass. He was a member of the Methodist church for over twenty years, subsequently uniting with the United Brethren congregation of West Lebanon. When Mr. Bales came to the country he found it a bleak and dreary waste, infested with Indians, bears and wolves. For several years he lived without meat, and as coffee commanded an exhorbitant price it was a delicacy seldom relished and only indulged, as Daniel Bales says, "when there was a birth in the family." Mt. Eaton had no existence when he penetrated the wild woods; Massillon was barely dreamed of then, and Canton but a cluster of cabins. He took his first wheat to New Philadelphia, and traveled twentythree miles to get his flour.
He was a whole-souled, generous man, lived a sincere and pious life, his house being recognized as "the preacher's home," having entertained fifty-six ministers while living there.
Jacob married on 5 Oct 1812. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
