EMANUEL FLORY
In the latter half of the century preceding 1800 Abraham Flory
lived near Meyersdale, Somerset County, Pennsylvania. Of his family,
Joseph, Henry and Emanuel emigrated to Ohio in 1805 ; they were
likely members of the first organization in the Miami Valley.
They located on government lands near each other, southwest of
the present village of Trotwood but which was then an unbroken
wilderness. Joseph, the ancestor of the Florys, a member of Salem
Church located on what is now known as the Elder Jacob Garber
farm, Henry on the Waybright farm and Emanuel on the Samuel
Pfoutz farm. In the division of Miami Valley territory in 1811 they
became members of Wolf Creek Church where Emanuel was elected
to the ministry and later ordained and given oversight of Salem Church
in 1817.
Later he moved to the vicinity of Palestine, Darke County, and be-
came identified with the early church at that point. He is said to
have been an earnest student of the Bible, taking it with him to the
fields to plow and in spare moments read and searched for its hid-
den truths. He was a vigorous expounder of the Word but always
in the German language. He is known to have been twice married ;

his first wife's maiden name was Blocher. Their children were: John,
Jacob, Emanuel, and Sarah who became the wife of Jacob Miller, a
later elder of Palestine Church. In the cemetery by West Branch
Church are two slabs with these inscriptions.
"In memory of Emanuel Flory dec'd.
March 9, 1849, aged 72 years."
"Elizabeth, wife of Emanuel Flory, dec'd.
September 20, 1855, aged 75 years."
