Pioneer Women of the Ohio Country Memorial Noted

A fragmentary account recalls Mrs. Jona Patton Fulton of Dover Township, Athens County, who endured frontier terror and hardship after marrying at 13.

Also noted is a plan to erect a marker for Mrs. Fulton at Nye Cemetery, Mt. Chauncey, to preserve her family’s story.
