JAMES H. SAPP.   Among the resident farmers of Clermont county, Ohio, who served their country in the Civil war, are numbered James H. Sapp, residing in Monroe township, not far from New Richmond. The farm which Mr. Sapp now owns and operates has been the property of some member of the Sapp family since it was obtained from the government. On September 27, 1843, James Sapp was born, he being a son of Abel and Sarah (Hodge) Sapp.
     Abel Sapp, a native of Clermont county, was born about 1812, and lived to the good old age of seventy-two years. He was born on this same farm in Monroe township, and followed farming as his life work. Abel Sapp was a son of Edward and Elizabeth (Seaton) Sapp, the former of whom came to this county from Kentucky, when he was a young man. He passed away in 1843, of cholera.
Sarah (Hodge) Sapp was born in Clermont county, about 1819, and died in 1886, a daughter of James and (Treece) Hodge, the latter of an old family of Washington township. James Hodge was an old resident of Nicholsville.
     James H. Sapp is one of five children, of which one sister died in infancy; the youngest is now living in Pasadena, Cal. He received his education in the schools of the county, and the Parker Academy. In 1863, Mr. Sapp enlisted in Company L, Ohio cavalry, under CaptainGatch. He served until the close of the war, nearly two years, being sergeant when he was discharged, never having been wounded.
     After the close of the war, Mr. Sapp returned to his home and, has followed general farming since. His marriage to Miss Jane Ann Portertook place in the winter of 1865. Jane Ann Porter is a daughter of William and Asenath (Lane) Porter. The Lanes were of a prominent family, one cousin, Henry Lane, was at one time Governor of Indiana. William Porter, whose parents were from Scotland, was born in Clermont county soon after the arrival of the family in the county.
     Mrs. Sapp has two brothers and two sisters living: Charles, superintendent of the Tenth district schools of Cincinnati; John, a farmer living in Tennessee; Mrs. Henry Maltox, of Washington State; Mrs. H. L. Fridman, a widow living at Clermontville.
Mr. and Mrs. Sapp are the parents of five children:

Hattie, is the wife of Elmer Smith, of Pasadena, Cal.
Mary, a graduate nurse of Seaside Hospital, of Long Beach, Cal.
Jessie, is the wife of Clayton H. Corbin, a cousin of the late Gen. Henry Corbin.
Olive, was in business in Cincinnati, until her decease at twenty-three years of age.
Mr. Sapp is a member of the Frazier Post of Bethel Grand Army of the Republic, and in religious views favors the Methodist church. He is Republican and keeps well informed on all the political subjects of the day, although he has never accepted any office of the county, believing his family was his first consideration. He has given his business his entire attention with most excellent results. A man conscientious in all his dealings, he has the respect of all his neighbors and friends.

Biographical Sketches
JACKSON TOWNSHIP BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.

DR. Z. U. LOOP, an enterprising young physician and surgeon of Galveston, is a native of Carroll County, this State, and was born July 9, 1851. He is the second son of James C. and Sarah (Wirts) Loop, who, at present, are old and highly respected citizens of Galveston. Our subject was yet a young child when his parents removed from Carroll to Cass County and located where they now reside. His boyhood and youth, up to the time he was nineteen years of age, were spent working upon his father's farm and attending the district schools. In these he received a good common school education. In 1870 he left home and went to Logansport, where he began to learn the trade of a marble-cutter. He worked as an apprentice for Sylvester Reed, of that place, two years. He then went to Springfield, Ohio, where his apprenticeship was finished with Maxion & Forbes, who were, at that time, prominent marble manufacturers of that city. By the time this trade was finished, he had made up his mind to take up the study of medicine. He returned to this State in the fall of 1873, and during the year following he read medicine with his brother, Dr. William M. Loop, of Deer Creek, Carroll County. In the fall of 1874 he returned to Galveston, and in January of 1875 he engaged in the drug business, in which he has ever since continued with very good success. He had in the meantime kept up his medical studies, and in February, 1881, he entered the Kentucky School of Medicine, of Louisville, where he attended two courses of lectures, graduating in June, of 1882. During his second course of lectures, he acted as assistant to the chair of chemistry. Returning to Galveston he immediately entered upon the practice of his profession, in which he has ever since continued with more than ordinary success. September 10, 1875, he was married to Mary E. Atchley, a native of Clermont County, Ohio, born May 29. 1853. She was the daughter of William and Mary Ann (Hodges) Atchley, natives of Clermont County, Ohio, and Morgan County, Va., respectively. His first wife died May 22, 1880, and on the 22d of January, 1882, he was married to Mrs. Laura A. Darragh, whose maiden name was Laura A. Wilson. She was born in Montgomery County, Ohio, August 20, 1850, and was the daughter of Hiram and Rebecca (Coleman) Wilson, both natives of Montgomery County, Ohio. To this latter union two children have been born. They are Clarence V., born May 22, 1883, and Florence, born July 14, 1886. Dr. Loop is a member of the K. of P. and I. O. O. F. lodges, and is a Democrat in politics. Though young in his profession, he has already built up an extensive practice. He is now considered a leading physician of Galveston, and he promises to become one of the leading practioners of Cass County.
