John Enlow was born in 1802, in East Finley township, Washington county, and received his education in the home school. He was married to Nancy, daughter of Robert Woods, one of the oldest pioneers of the township, and the young people immediately settled on the home farm in East Finley township, which became their permanent abiding place. They had one son, who died when ten years of age. After the death of his first wife John Enlow married Jemima Post, and to this union were born seven children: Sarah, wife of Rev. J. W. Hill; Martha, wife of John Hopkins; Mary, wife of Amos Sprowls; Nancy, wife of S. E. Martin; John M.; Gideon and Eleanor, both of whom died before reaching maturity. Mr. Enlow was a prominent member of the M. E. Church which was founded by his father. In political views he was a Democrat. He died September 16, 1876, and was followed to the grave by his wife in May, 1880.
