From: Owen Co. Ancestors by Vivian Zollinger

Haxtons came from Coshocton Co., Ohio, by wagon in 1840. Chose area in Owen Co. IN among friends and build cabin.

From "Ramblinb Rememberings" by Bertha M. (Haxton) Pottenger:

Richard Haxton was of Scotch-Irish descent, coming from Pennsylvania to Ohio with his family in early childhood. I knew very little of them. The only one I ever remember seeing [Mrs. Pottenger was born in 1871] was a nephew, Andrew Haxton and family who came to see Uncle Dickson way back to their home in Nebraska after a visit back to Ohio. The boy's name was Andy, too; and when Lloyd and Eliry some time ago sent us clipings from the Daily San Francisco Fair Journal telling of an Andy Haxtonshowing his fine draft horses, I thought it might be he. Grandfather (Richard) was very patient and a great help with the older children. He was a great sory teller; but his wife even more so. She was of a good old German family -- tho' not German-speaking -- always busy, always in the same straight-backed, cane-bottomed low chair, and alwyas the same shawl folded over the back of it, her clay pipe within reach.

Richard and Sabrina Haxton left Coshocton County, Ohio, and went to Indiana by way of Zanesville, Ohio, in the fall of 1840. They settled in the southern part of Owen County, four and a half miles north of Old Point Commerce, their nearest town and trading center until the establishment of Worthington, ten years later. I well remember seeing the deed signed by Andrew Jackson to the forty acres of government land bought by Grandfather and later transferred to our father John, to which he from time to time added another 40 or 60 acres till the big stock farm of nearly five hundred acres as we knew it was accomplished, with the big old-fashioned house, built in 1856, and the many barns and outhouses surrounding "Haxton Hill" it was called; and items from that neighborhood in local papers are still headed "Haxton." At first it was a comfortable one-room log house with loft. A lean-to kitchen was added. Fireplace for heat and cooking. The boys slept in the loft, reached by an outside stairway. Sabina was a Grim, daughter of George, who drove out from Ohio some winters to stay with them. Others have mentioned that these groms were thought to be a-kin to the famous author of "Grimm;s Fairy Tales."
