About Arthur Teal

. . . 

My grandmother Hart was descended from the Teal, Murphy, Hart, Bargar and Stansbery families. Her great-grandfather was Arthur Teal who came to Fairfield County in 1799 from Maryland. He married Sarah Murphy(date unknown), who had come to Ohio about the same time from Pennsylvania. Their daughter, Elizabeth Teal, married William Hart on 11/27/1828. Elizabeth was born in Fairfield County and William was born in Pennsylvania.

William and Elizabeth's son, Henry C. Hart, married Julia S. Bargar on 12/21/1869. Henry & Julia became the parents of my grandmother. The 1880 census indicates that Elizabeth Teal Hart(probably widowed) was living on a farm in Richland Twp. with her brother Washington Teal.

The Teals and the Harts were largely farmers, residing in Richland and Pleasant Townships. Through the aid of Karen Smith I was able to find a reference to Arthur Teal's brother Edward, who resided in Pleasant Twp, and held the first Methodist meeting in the County at or near his cabin sometime before 1800. Karen also provided me with information that enabled me to locate the grave of Arthur Teal. I am grateful for her help. . . .

Arthur and Walter Teal came from Maryland, in about 1799, and settled in the same community. Edward Teal, a brother, went a little further west, and located two and a half miles east of the present Lancaster, on what is known as the old Rushville road. These brothers have passed away.

Edward Murphy came about the same time, and settled one mile west of Rushville, on the place now owned by his son, Theodore Murphy. The Murphys were Virginians.
