| Notes |
- Jacob appears on the tax roles for Highland Co. in Union Twp. from 1830-1834, then in Liberty Twp. from 1835-1860. The family was living in Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio in 1850 and 1860.
HIGHLAND WEEKLY NEWS - 6 Feb 1868
MR. JACOB BISHIR, and old and well known citizen of this township, died on Thursday last, at his residence on Rocky Fork, one mile southeast of Hillsboro. -- He was about 70 years of age, and had lived on the place where he died for upwards of 30 years.
-----
Research: Have Jacob's will. An elderly man (in his 60s) is living with Jacob and Elizabeth in 1830. This may be Jacob's father, Christopher. (Elizabeth's father is still in Warren Co.) Ayres indicates Jacob was buried in Olive Branch cemetery in Hillsboro in December, 1864. However, his grave was found in Hillsboro Cemetery.
An article in the Hillsboro Press-Gazette on 7 May 1965 indicates that Jacob may have owned a mill and ice house “about 50 yards or so down Rocky Ford Creek from the private bridge.” Nothing remains but a few scattered timbers, but it is thought that Jacob owned the area of the Girl Scout camp there at one time.
An article in the Highland Weekly News., July 21, 1859, Image 3:
“New Bridges to be Built.
...
Across the same stream [Rocky Fork of Paint Creek] near Bisher’s Mill, in Liberty township.”
A form of dolomitic limestone that underlies much of southern Ohio is named after the Bishirs. [11, 12]
