    to S o ut h C a ro li na an d s et tl ed on Bush River nowNewberry district, where the family passed throtighthe bloody scenes of the Revolution, many times suffering alike from both Whig and Tory. Only his religious faith and s tro ng parental control kept youngO Neall , a passive non-combatant, but he was notexempt from brutal outrage. In January, 1781, whenCol. Tarleton was moving against the Patriotic forces,which resu l ted in the Battle of Cctwpcns, January 17,1781, the British forces were cncnmpcd on the O Nealllands, and Abijali was talccn before a number of English officers, who demanded information .as to the position and number of Morgan s army, but ho would notgive it. When tlic officers found they could not get bythreats or persuasion the desired information, they assaulted him with t li ei r swords unt il hi s scalp hung intatters from his h ea d a nd he w as l ef t bu t little betterthan d ead. In an insen si bl e condi ti on lie was carried tothe home of Jolin Kelly,whosedaughter, Anna, provedthe good angcl who nursed him back to life andeventually into health, and whom he-rewarded by alifetime love an d devotion, their marriage being solemnized according to the rites of Friends in Busli RiverMeeting , Dec. 10, 1784.

    The following years of Abijah CNcall s life werebusy cues yet he never ceased to be innamed by whathe considered the great wrong of human slavery andthe ills of rearing a family under its blighting influence.His wife was by inheritance a large slave holder. The

    Ordinance of 1787 and the opening for settlement ofthe te rr itory nortii of the O nio river, opened a r.cwf ield for those who wished to escape from evils whichthey could not control. In May, 179S, Abijah lefthome on horseback to hunt fo r a future abode. Hi stour of exploration occupied about two iticnths. Inautumn, be and his brotb.cr-in-law, Samuel Kelly,

    Abijah and his wife had much trouble in freeingtheir slaves. Th e laws of South C a ro l in a w o ul d no tallow a mas te r to release a slave without g iv ing bondthat the s lave should not become a public charge andthat he shou ld not be subm issi ve to the laws throughth e commission of a crime. All could no t g iv e s uc h a

    bond and many werenot willingto do so. Those freedcaus ed much trouble, Abi jah havi ng to make t hr eetrips to South Carolina on account of their misdeedsand general worthlessness.

    In the late summer all a rrangements being completed. Abijah went before Bush River Monthly Meeting. of wb.ich h : was a member and asked for a cer-tiffcntc of mctuuership. After due deliberation themcmi -crship conmiitlec declined to grant the requestand gave as a reason for so doing, The expresseddesire was ro t that of a sane man. Th e desire to takehis family from the ir home and f ri ends into the wilderness v. .as so unreasonable as to show of itself an unbalanced mind and the request could not be granted.Abijah denounced them inno measured terms as beinghypocritical. Tiiat the stain of human blood v;as ontheir souls, that the Almighty would visit them withswift and sure pur.ishment for their hypocrisy, thattheir meeting would be scattered to the four winds,tb.nt tb.c members would seek an asylum elsewhere andtheir land be left as desolate as the plains of Arabiawas a prediction which was fulfilled. In less than tenyears from a Jiicmbcrship of one hundred families,but eleven of the original members remained. Overtwo hundred persons of whom h.ad united with the

    meeting at Waynesville and in a few years the doorsof . the meet ing were closed forever.

    Near tlie close of September, 1799, familytrain s tar ted and completed the journey in for ty -twodays. Th e route pursued from N ew bc rr y was by wayof Greenville, through Saluda Gap, to Ashvi ll e, N. C.,a long the French Broad River, past Bald Mountain,to Greenvi lle, Tenn. . via Cumberland Gap, LexingtonKy., Cincinnati, and Lebanon to Waynesvil le . Pract ica lly the same r oa d r em ai ns t he grea t thoroughfareof travel from the southeast to the northwest to-day.

    Th e families that i mm ig ra ie d w ith t he m wore

    Jesse an d David Pugh William Mills, Robert Kelly,Isaac P er ki ns a nd tw o others ail be ing members ofBush River Month ly Meet ing .

    On arrival at Waynesv i ll e the family moved intoa cabin w hi ch s to od w he re Michael Liddy now resides.During the winter some rude improvements were madeon the property where William Frame now lives. Itthen became the O Neall home an d t he y, the first sett le r s e a st o f t he L it tl e M ia m i.

    Th e family n ow b ei ng p er ma ne nt ly l oc at ed intheir new home, Abijah turned his attention to tlieimprovement of the country and the people with whomhi s lo t w as cas t .

After providing fo r th e immediate physical wants of his f ami ly he attended to theirm o r a l an d i n t e l l e c t u a l wants . In 1802 h e c au se d aschool for hi s a nd o th er c hi ldr en to be taught in hisown hous e by Joel Wright who also t au gi it in 1S04,1805 an d 1S07. A bi ja h w as v er y kind hearted an dgave a he lp ing hand to all wh o needed assistance.

    He died suddenly in the prime of his life an dfull strength of manhood. May 11, 1823. Hi s remainswere laid to rest in an unmarked grave near the nor theast corner of the Friends graveyard.

    He was a strong-willed, self-reliantman, one bornt be master of himself and of others a leader among

    men an d a control ler of events.^To day our praise is due him for the services he

    rendered the vicinity during his life and the descendants he has left to c ont in ue tlie work he loved.

    Can wc forget that brave and hardy bandWh o made tlicir homes f ir st in this w es t er n l a nd ?Their names should be enrolled on history s pageTo be preserved by each succeeding age.

    DIAMOND HILL FARM HAS RICH HISTORICAL BACKGROUNDby Dennis E. Dalton

    T h e earliest an d mos t historic s e tt le m e nt i nWayne Township was that made by Abijah

    Neal l a t D i a m on d H i ll Fa rm in 1799. D i a m o n dill was settled on the hilltop overlooking whatnow the village of Corwin.O Neall, a South Carolina Quaker surveyor

    nd land developer, in partnership with Samuelelly, another prosperous Quaker, bought 3,3103 acres along the Little Miami River inc tobe r 1798. Then as n o w 6 60 acres o fNeall s share was located within the Virginiailitary Reservation on the eastside of the Littleiami encompassing what would later become

    orwin. Th e Reservation , was acreage betweene S cio to an d Little Miami Rivers in th e ol dorthwest Territory reserved by theommonwealth, of Virginia to pa y its

    evolutionary War soldiers. It was common forealthy Quakers to buy this land from its origial owners whofor v^ous reasonswereunable

    se t t le it .

    O Neall and Kelly bought their land for 66 1/2nts per acre from Dr. Jacob Roberts Brown.

    his military claim was known as Brown survey Number 791. A patent for the land wasventually issued to O Neall at Washington, D.C.nuary 17,1800.

    Q'Neall moved his fan^y from; the Bnshiver Meeting Quaker settlementin Newberpristrict, Sou Caroiina to Waynesville in thet u m n o f _

    in a log cabin on the southeast comer of Mainand Miami Streets. O Neall made improvementsto Diamond Hill, named for the shape of the landsurvey. He constracted a logcabinand outbuildings, dug wells and planted orchards and gardens .

    The family moved into a log cabin onDiamond Hill in the Spring of 1800.At the time,the a rea was a dense forest f rom Morrow up theLittle MiamiRiver Valleyto Corwin.A recordofthe O Nealls stated: The family was a large oneand the number of retainers was larger. Those

    -who couldn t sleep inside slept outside on thegroundv *

    Th e O Neall home from its log cabin days toits enlargement witha two storybrick addition in1808 and afterward was a center of religious

    strength, education and culture.Abij^ O'Neall established and taught diefirst school in Wayne Township in his log Homein 1801. Later O Neall built a one room logschool on his farm which was taught from 1804-1807 by Joel Wright, also a Quaker and surveyor at Waynesville. Wright'sson, Jonathon, setd^nearbySpiingboroin 1815. JoelWrightwasbestknown for surveyingand laying out e streets ofColumbuSj Ohio and Louisville,; Kentucky.

    -Elizabeth Wright,Joel s sister,taught theschoolifroin J808 until 1814 when a large HftpkFriend s school was built by Mianai.Meeting at,Wavnesvttfi;^^ ^

    In addition to farming, O Neall adjusted disputed land boundary lines for Wayne Townssettlers. Records of early local historians havepointed out that O'Neall was always charitaand hospitable and Diamond Hill s door wasnever closed to rich or poor .

    O Neall entertained many impressive closepersonal friends. These in part included OGovernor Jeremiah Morrow, Colonel RichardAnderson of Louisvi ll e, Ken tuckyCincinnati s prominent JudgeBumett .

    However the most colorful an d most distguished house guest at Diamond Hill wasundoubtedly the great American Indian CLit t le Tur tle o f the Miami s .

    Beginning in 1801,.Chief Little Turtleseveral of his t riba l members would visit wO Neall.

    During die War oif 1812, the wife and child of Shawnee Chiles Ash,GeneralWilliam H. Harrison s interpreter, were rescued frpm harm by Ohiohostiles and broughtto Diamond Hillwhere they weresafely housed by theO Neal ls fo r severa l months .

    Diamond Hillhomestead was inherited by Abijah O Neall, Jr., O Neall syoungest son, upon O Neall s death in 1823. Catherine Newton in a letterdescribed the junior O Neall as A gendemm well qualified to j^kce anymodem drawing room .

    Abijah, Jr. continued the traditional benevolence of Diamond Hill alsomaintaining it as a social and intellectual center .

    In 1834, he sold the farm to John Johnson who with his .brother, Joel,settled and developed Corwin in 1844. The O Nealls moved to westernI n d i a n a .

    Johnson, the eldest of three brothers, and his two brodiers who ownedadjoining farms were members of Miami Friends Meeting at Waynesvillecontinuing Orthodox membership after the Meeting split over religiouspractice differences in 1828.

    Once again the house was always gay with young society including 28cousins wh o al l l ived within a mile radius.

    John Johnson s estate was settied in 1847 and Diamond Hill was sold toEdward Lynch of Lynchburg, Virginia. Lynch, as mild a mannered manwho has ever left the Old Dominion to inake his home north of the Masonand Dixon Line was a gentleman of the old school and. a itypicalVirginian . The Lynches had a bachelor son and two unmarried daughters.The Lynchniecesand nephews spent their summers at the home of UncleNeddy andoftenthe homestead was thrown wide openandfestivities ranr io t ..

Janney renovated the home without altering the structure biutgiving it a Victorian lopk.

    John B. Graham bought the homestead in 1881 frpm Janney and resolditto John Hathaway who is 1882 sold it to William f. Frame.

    Janney stated: That old house has isheltered more old line Whig politicians and more Methodist preachers.than any other house in southernOhio . He also.^id that in southern OhiQ j IIthad welcppgied-moreunbiddenguests and had dispensed more open hearted hospitality than any hquse ..

    William Frame., . a model farmer continued a n d a d de d to th e extensivefruit orchards and replaced the. original log bam in 1897 with a new bamand buggy shed which still standin 1997. Mary Frame, an intelligent andprogressive model housewife , remodeled the interior of the house.

    Frank U. LeMay .purchased the farm from the Frames in March 1923and moved his family there. LeMay opened Diamond Hill Orchard andcontinued to farm s reputation for fine fruit there being severalacres ofapples, peaches,,cherries and small fruit. Some of the pioneer varieties ofapples still there at that timeincluded Northera Spy, Rambo,.BeUeflpwer,H.W. Greening, Gano Russet, Talpahawkin, Baldwin,Winesap and SmithCider. During the LeMays tenure the farm was known for its noteworthyapple butter made, in a copper kettle over a wpod fire in the orchard byCorwin and Waynesville housewives supervised by Laura Sides., Sybil(Mrs. Frank) LeMay, a dedicated local historian, researched and preservedthe stories of Diamond Hill recording many aspects which otherwise might
