      SOLOMON LEININGER, who owns and operates a well improved farm of eighty acres, in Clinton township, is a member of one of the well known pioneers families of Fulton county, which has been is home from the time of his birth. He was born on the old homestead farm, in German township, on the 9th of February, 1850 and is a son of John and Mary (Binder) Leininger, the former of whom was born in the province of Alsace, France, now a portion of the German empire, on the 19th of March, 1821, and the latter was born in Switzerland, in 1822. Their marriage was solemnized in Fulton county, Ohio, in 1841. The death of Mrs. Leininger occurred in February, 1903, and her husband died in 1905 on his old homestead farm, in German township, being one of the venerable and honored pioneers of the county.

     This worthy couple became the parents of twelve children, of whom eight are living. Solomon Leininger was reared to manhood on the home farm, early beginning to lend his aid in its cultivation, and his educational training was secured in the district schools of German township. After his marriage in 1872, he located on his present farm, which he reclaimed from the forest, having developed the property into one of the fine places of Clinton township, practically all being under cultivation, and the improvements are of substantial order, including good buildings.

     In politics Mr. Leininger is aligned as a stanch supporter of the principals and policies of the Democratic party, and both he and his wife are members of the Lutheran church, in whose faith they were reared. On the 25th of August, 1872, in Defiance county, Mr. Leininger was united in marriage to Miss Anna U. Seyfang, who was born in Weidenberg, kingdom of Bavaria, Germany, on the 25th of August, 1851, being a daughter of Jacob T. and Anna Barbara (Hesch) Seyfang, the latter of whom died in Germany, whence the father came with his children to America in 1864, settling in Defiance county, Ohio, where he passed the remainder of his life.

     Mr. And Mrs. Leininger have six children: George S., who married Miss Minnie Brant, is a successful farmer of German township; Charles F., who married Miss Bertha Sourwine, resides in the city of Toledo and Philippine, John S., Otto and Barbara remain at the parental home.
