The next farm south of the old Henry Drach farm �?" whose father was Adam (and who brings me back to where I planted the Bowersox farm) Henry Drach�?Ts father was Adam E. Drach. Henry�?Ts mother was �?oLeister�??. A widow Myers. Myers owned the farm. He drowned himself in a large spring or sinkhole on the farm and his widow who had other children married Adam Drach, Henrys father. Henry being the only child by her second marriage and that�?Ts where old Henry got his start for he was rich. He married a Maurer and she too had money. But as always some people cant stand prosperity and the young. Source: Journal written by Peter Baile, who died in 1819.
