In 1902, on occasion of the 100th Anniversary of the settling of Palmer, OH a pamphlet, the "PALMER CENTENNIAL" was written. On page 20 the following, which was written by E. H. PALMER about 1888 appears:

... In the spring of 1802 .. Joseph PALMER and Jason RICE first settled in the old Palmer settlement. In the fall of 1803, Mr DANLEY and Cornelius GARD moved in. Mr GARD bought out Jason RICE, he going back to Amesville. [Note by Nellie GARD: Amesville is in Athens County, OH. not far West of the Washington County line.] Henry CORNES, a native of Pennsylvania [Nellie: of German descent] came on in the spring of 1806 with two of his sons, William and John, and bought out Mr GARD.
