W. Korn land on 1861 map
The following excerpt from the 1861 "Sectional & topographical map of Holmes County, Ohio" shows a W. Korn property in Hardy Township that adjoins a C. Korn property in Monroe Township. I suspect these are the properties of William and Charles Korn, sons of Michael Korn, Sr. of Southampton Township, Somerset County, Pennsylvania. There is also a W. Korn tract in Monroe Township that adjoins two C. Korn tracts.
