[dodd.FTW] [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 1, Ed. 1, Tree #1073, Date of Import: Apr 18, 2001] James Heaton, son of William and Mary Barton Heaton was born in Harford County, Maryland on 17 October 1811. He married Miss Mary Cozad, daughter of Reverend John and Deborah Lewis Cozad, on 18 October 1838 in Meigs County, Ohio. Mary Cozad was born in 1822 in Virginia or Kentucky. James and Mary Cozad Heaton purchased a 212 acre farm in the southeast part of Bedford Township on Kingsbury Creek, and settled there, first in the usual type of log cabin that was built in those days, and later in a nice frame house built nearby. Their farm was within one-half mile of the present village of Hoyt-Town and near the farm of John Barton, Mary's father. The couple had seven children, Celenda Heaton, Charles Marion Heaton, Mary Elizabeth Heaton, Andrew Donnally Heaton, James Albert Heaton, Florence Heaton, and Jennie Heaton. All of the children of James and Mary Cozad Heaton were born on the Heaton farm. In his day James Heaton was a leading farmer and stockman owning a very fine farm of hill and bottom land containing a great variety of excellent timber. The Heatons were Methodists and helped erect a large church building at Hoyt-Town that was completed in 1856 and named Boring Chapel in honor of their Elder. The famous Confederate General John Hunt Morgan also known as "Morgan the Raider" raided Meigs County, Ohio during the month of July, 1863. According to a Heaton family tradition, Morgan and his troops spent one night on the Heaton farm during that raid. Mary Cozad Heaton died of fever on 9 March 1865. James Heaton left Ohio in December, 1884 to visit his son Charles Marion Heaton and other relatives and acquaintances in the State of Kansas. At Council Grove, Kansas he was stricken with apoplexy on 1 January 1885 and died. His remains were accompanied back to his old home by his son, Charles Marion Heaton and laid to rest beside his wife Mary Cozad Heaton in Mount Hermon Cemetery. On James and Mary's tombstone we find: "Again we have to meet thee when the day of life is fled Then in heaven with joy to greet thee where no farewell tear is shed" bib: Heaton Genealogy and History, Charles S.
