TABOR RANDALL
Tabor Randall was born in Windsor County, Vt., November 5, 1806, the son of Joshua and Keziah (Hawley) Randall. They removed to Essex County, N. Y., and thence Tabor emigrated with his father in 1818 to Franklin County, Ohio, coming by team, the only way then practicable. In his youth he became a schoolteacher. He taught a term in Mill Creek Township in 1825, and also taught in Jerome Township and in Morrow County. In August 1831, Mr. Randall came to Jackson Township for the purpose of teaching a school. He married Elizabeth Cheney January 1, 1832, and settled on a little place west of Essex, lately owned by Harvey Moore. He remained here four years, farming in summer and teaching in winter. He then removed to the village of Essex and tended store for Jacob Reed about a year; and for William Wurl about the same length of time. He also taught school and farmed to some extent until 1854, when he was elected Clerk of the Court for Union County. He removed to Marysville and retained the office fifteen years. He has since served in different capacities at the Marysville court house and is today a valuable and efficient official, though he has years ago passed his allotted three-score years and ten.
