______________

Walnut Grove

This is the farm of Mr. Enoch Detweiler, now an old and familiar citizen of this community. He was born in Roseville, Sept. 8, 1839, and excepting a year or two, has lived here all his life. He was married Nov. 27, 1860, to Miss Victoria Willits, formerly of Beverly. They are the parents of seven children, one son and six daughters. The late Jacob Detwiler, father of Enoch, was born in Pennsylvania, in 1808, and settled on this farm in 1830, where he lived until he died, July 2, 1885. For many years in connection with farming, he was engaged in shoemaking. In 1860 he built a cidermill on the farm. This proved to be a great convenience to the farmers and in season it has been kept in operation ever since by Enoch. It has a capacity of 100 barrels of cider every three hours, the press being of the hydraulic system. The highest number of barrels of cider it has produced in one season was 2,300. The farm which comprises fifty acres, is being worked by the son, William. Thirty three years ago Mr. Detweiler resigned his position as fireman at the sawmill of Henry Bricker, now owned and operated by Mr. D. W. Clemens, and only a few weeks ago resumed the same position as an employee of the latter gentleman. "Walnut Grove," Mr. Detweiler's home, derives its name from the large number of walnut trees now growing upon the estate. Quite a number of them were planted by his father forty years ago, and last year he himself put out 250 of the same kind.
