Notes for Levin WILLOUGHBY

From pg 727, History of Madison Co. 1883 (Range Township)
Levin Willoughby, one of the earliest settlers, located here probably as early as 1807. William Vincent was a brother-in-law to Levin Willoughby and settled in the same neighborhood about the same date. Mr. Willoughby was born on Sharp's Island, in Chesapeake Bay. He was the son of Job and Mary (Mills) Willoughby. The grandfather, Job Willoughby, was a native of Wales. Levin's parents soon moved into Maryland and settled near Cambridge, where they died. Their children were Levin, Sally, John, Andrew, Ameila, and Job. Levin married Elizabeth Levy, and soon after, with his family and some of his brothers and sisters, emigrated to Ohio and settled near Chillicothe, on the Gov. Washington farm. After a short residence there, he removed to Madison County and settled in Range Township, in the vicinity of the Shepherds, where they now reside. This, it is believed, was about 1807, and here he resided until his death. He was a farmer through life, and held many of the offices of his township, and early settler of this county, and a good neighbor and worthy citizen. He was the father of five children, of whom one died in infancy -- Margaret, married Benjamin Badger; Nancy, married Jacob Hull; David, married Elizabeth Kinney; and Levin married, it is believed, a Miss Gray.
Children of Levin Willoughby and Elizabeth Levy are:
i. Martha Willoughby, married Benjamin Badger April 04, 1854.
ii. Nancy Ann Willoughby, married Jacob Hull September 02, 1854.
iii. Levin Willoughby, married ? Gray.
214 iv. David W. Willoughby, born Abt. 1825 in Madison Co., OH; died January 11, 1869 in Range Twp., Madison Co., OH; married Eliza Conklin.
