Family/Spouse: Husband Layne. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

From reviewing the 1870 census, it would indicate that when William B.Brown & Eliza Ellen Redenbaugh married it was a first marriage forboth of them, and William grew up in Walnut Township, MontgomeryCounty, Indiana. In the 1870 census, the family is still in WalnutTownship. Thus, the children of William & Eliza were probably bornthere as well.

William B. Brown of Montgomery County, Indiana could not be found inthe 1900 census by this compiler. This may mean that William hadexpired prior to the year 1900.

They livedthe first year in Scott township, in a house of the rudestdescription, boards being laid across the sleepers for their bedstead.Leaving Scott township they leased thirty acres for three years ofWilliam H. Lynn, in Union township. This they cleared, for which theyreceived $100 in money. With this little purse Mr. Redenbaughpurchased eighty acres of land in Scott township, upon which theylived till his death, which occurred in 1855.

BIOGRAPHY
Jeremiah Redenbaugh
Portrait and Biographical Record pp445-446
JEREMIAH REDENBAUGH is a retired farmer, living just outside the citylimits of Crawfordsville, but he still retains possession of his farm,which is located in Walnut Township, Montgomery County. Mr. Redenbaughis a son of Henry B. Redenbaugh, one of the early settlers of thisportion of Indiana, who was born born January 2, 1800, near Redden,Ohio.
Frederick Redenbaugh, the grandfather of our subject, was a native ofGermany, came to this country some time during the last century, andfirst located in Pennsylvania, whence he moved to Ohio, and from thereto Indiana in the early days of the settlement of the state. Aftercoming here he first settled among the pioneers of Jefferson County,and then came to Montgomery County, where his life was closed at theadvanced age of' eighty-six years. He was a soldier under Gen.Harrison at the famous battle of Tippecanoe, and he served with theGeneral during the war of 1812. He married Margaret Haney inPennsylvania and they had twelve children, of whom their son William,who lives in Fountain County at the advanced age of eighty-one years,is the only survivor. The grandfather of our subject was an ardentDemocrat in his day, and was a leader in local politics.
Henry Redenbaugh was the fifth child born to his parents, and was ayoung man when he accompanied them to Jefferson County, this state. Hethere met and married Mary Douglas, daughter of Jeremiah and Jane(Huthert) Douglas. They had come from England to this country andfirst settled near Cincinnati, whence they afterwards removed toJefferson County, this state. After his marriage Henry Redenbaughremained awhile in Jefferson County, and then came to MontgomeryCounty in 1828. He took up eighty acres of government land, which hecleared and improved, and developed it into a fine farm, upon which heremained until his death, September, 1891, at the venerable age ofninety-one years. In dying he left behind him an honorable record asan active and useful pioneer, as a good citizen, and as a desirableneighbor. He was the father of twelve children, of whom the followinggrew to maturity and are still living: John, a painter, residing atNewton, Kans.; Jeremiah; Mary (Mrs. Brush), who lives in Iowa; SarahAnn, who lives in Boone County; William B., a resident ofCrawfordsville; Joe, a resident of Mace, and Eliza (Mrs. McMullen) aresident of Boone County.
Jeremiah Redenbaugh was born in Jefferson County, in the southern partof this state, May 25, 1824, and he was a child of three years whenhis parents brought him to their new home amid the pioneer scenes ofMontgomery County. He was reared in Scott Township, and has a distinctrecollection of the appearance of the country in all its wildness whenhe was a boy, and he can remember when Crawfordsville had but three orfour houses in it. He made his home with his father until he wastwenty-one, and then married established a home of his own with thehelp of his wife. She was Elizabeth Corn in her maiden days and adaughter of William Corn, of Clark Township, one of the early settlersof the county.
Twelve children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Redenbaugh, of whom five areliving: Sarah Jane, wife of Thomas N. Hosier; William, George W.,Eliza Ellen and Nancy Eddenfield. Mr. and Mrs. Hosier have one child,Viola Ellen, aged nine years. The names of the deceased children ofour subject are: Joseph Henry, Albert, Mary Alice, Andrew, Charlie andJohn, and one child who died in infancy unnamed. April 29, 1888,Jeremiah Redenbaugh had the misfortune to lose his wife, who hadwalked by his side for more than forty years, and to whoseencouragement, cheerful assistance and wise counsel he was greatlyindebted. Her age at the time of her death was sixty years, six monthsand twenty-seven days She left behind her a blessed memory as a wife,mother and friend.
Mr. Redenbaugh bought a piece of land in Walnut Township after hismarriage, and there he and his wife commenced keeping house together.He worked hard to improve it, and bought other land until his farmcomprised two hundred acres of most excellent farming land. In 1886 heretired from active business, and from the rental of his farm hederives a good income. His career as a farmer has placed him among thesubstantial citizens of the township, although he began life poor.This fact shows that beside being diligent, prudent and thrifty, healso carried on his work methodically, and was shrewd and far seeingin his management of his affairs. Politically he is a Democrat ofstanch principles. He belongs to the Montgomery County Horse ThiefDetective Association, and has always entered readily into any schemefor protecting the interests of the farmer.

Among those who came to Montgomery Co, IN when the country was in itsprimitive wildness, infested by wild animals, numerous and ferocious,and when the scarecely less wild, but more savage red men, had notlong been gone to other hunting grounds, was the CORN family, theprogenitors of the gentleman whose name forms the introduction of thissketch, having invaded the wilderness here 86 years ago, and from thatremote day to the present time the name has been a familiar sound overthis locality. They performed well their parts in the work ofdeveloping the country from the primeval woods to one of the foremostagricultural sections in the great Hoosier state, and the elder Corns,together with the other early actors in the great drama whichwitnessed the passing of the old and the introduction of the newconditions in which are now the fine farms and thriving towns of thisCounty are deserving of every consideration.

We of today cannot pay such sterling characters too great a meed ofpraise, in view of the sacrifices they made in order that theirdescendants and others of a later day should enjoy the blessings oflife, only a few of which they were permitted to have. George W. CORNwas born on the farm where he now lives in Sect 5 Clark Twp,Montgomery Co, Feb 20, 1841 and here he has been content to spend hislife. He is a son of Williams and Sarah (ALLEN) Corn. Williams Cornwas b. in Henry Co KY Feb 16 1800 and was a son of George & RhodaCorn. Sarah B. Allen was b. in Shelby CO Ky Aug 16, 1799 and in thatstate she and Mr. Corn grew to maturity, received a meager educationaltraining and were married. They moved to Montgomery CO, IN in 1827, atwhich time they had three children, namely: Rhoda Jane, b. 2-28- 1824;Albert b. 11-9-1825 and Elizabeth E. b. 10-2-1827, the latter an inf.two or three months old. They bought a farm in sect 6, Scott Twp, SEof what is now the village of New Market in 1827. They found a countrylittle improved.

The wolves surrounded the house at night and with their unearthlyhowling struck terror to the hearts of the timid inmates. Indians, nowfriendsly to the whites, often went up and down Cornstalk Creek whichtouches the land on which this family settled. In about two yearsWilliams Corn sold his first place and moved to the present Cornhomestead, occupied by our subject.

They bought the 80 acres on which the house stands west of the presentroad, and entered from the government an adjoining 80 directly east ofit, the two 80 acre parcels comprising the NW 1/4 of Section 5. Only 5or 6 acres of this second farm had been cleared, and it was enclosedwith a brush fence, and there had been built a log cabin near aSpring.

Here Mr. Corn quickly built of hewn logs a larger and more comfortabledwelling and in 1843 he built another and still better house, and inthis he and his wife spent the rest of their lives. They worked hardand clared and developed the place and became very well fixed asfarmers of that early day. To Williams Corn and wife were b. 9 ch.after they located in this County, making their family a larger one,12 in all, with the three elder who first opened their eyes to the skyin the BLue Grass state.

The ones born here were: Nancy A b. Oct 26, 1829; Mary Ann b. May 14,1831; Margare D b. May 1, 1833; Sarah Eliza b. Aprl 16 1835; John W.b. Aug 12, 1837; William b. July 23, 1838; Stephen A, b. Aug 15, 1839;Martha E, b. Aug 23, 1842 and our subject, George W. The death ofWilliams Corn occurred on Nov 11, 1859, having been 59 years old theprevious Feb. He was a hard working, honest man, who preferred toremain at home, never seeking office, although loyal in his support ofthe Whig party.

He was assisted in his hard work of clearning and developing the farmby his older sons and daughters. The good wife also worked hard, spunand wove until late into the night to make clothes for her children,even George W., the next to the youngest child, remembers well thelinen clothes. But they were a contented family and lived ascomfortably as others in those days hardships.

The mother was called to her rest May 4, 1874. She was a member of theBaptist Church. The paternal grandfather, George Corn, was a native ofGermany, from which country he emigrated to the U.S. when young andsettled in the wilds of Ky, from which state he enlisted for servicein the War of 1812, in which he fought as a private. 2003 USGenWebProject for Montgomery County, Indiana, Karen Zach."
