Note: ARCHIBALD BROWNLEE, farmer; P. O., Iberia. Six feet tall, straight as a reed, hair white with the frosts of nearly seventy winters, and brushed back from a massive forehead; an eagle eye, Roman nose, mouth and chin indicative of firmness. Such is a brief description of "Uncle Archie," as he is familiarly called; indeed this is the nom de plume, under which he has frequently written for the local paper. He was born in Ohio Co., W. Va., in 1811; yet in spite of early associations, was in the days of slavery a strong abolitionist. At the age of 25, he married Miss Danley, cousin of Hon. Wilson Shannon, who was twice governor of Ohio. In the followng they moved to Ohio and located in Washington Tp., two miles from where he now resides; to which place he removed in the year 1852. When he first came to Ohio, this township was a wilderness which was thought impossible to subdue; but the industry of himself and fellow pioneers has caused it to blossom as the rose. The old family Bible tells the following story: Agnes, born Feb. 14, 1837; H. C., Oct. 9, 1838; Levenia, March 24, 1840, died Jan. 13, 1879; Martha J., born Oct. 5, 1841 ; Margaret, April 6, 1843, died June 3, 1869; Sarah, born Oct. 11, 1844; Elizabeth, July 30, 1846, died May 15, 1872; Josephine, born Sept. 15, 1848; Rebecca, Feb. 24, 1850; John, Dec. 17, 1851; Mary Helen, Aug. 16, 1855; Francis A., July 20, 1857. They are all married except John and Helen, who reside with the old couple. The others are in homes of their own, more or less distant. "Uncle Archie " has suffered for several years with asthma, and yet in spite of his disease is a genial old gentleman, always glad to welcome and entertain his friends at is hospitable home.
