Notes
General:
In 1870 John Fretz had personal property valued at $1700.

Although he lived on the banks of the Blanchard River, he had to go thirty miles to mill. For some years their bread stuff, which consisted mainly of corn, was all ground on a hand mill. The entire families shoes were made of wood. In 1856 he sold his farm and emigrated to Linn Co., Kansas where he purchased a farm, which he worked for three years, then sold to his sons Jacob and John, and returned to Ohio, where he spent the remainder of his days with his daughters Elizabeth and Fannie. He and wife were members of the Mennonite church, and assisted in building the first Mennonite meeting house in Putnam Co., where they worshipped for a long time. 29 50
