Bio from Jackson Twp., Hardin Co., Ohio: WILLIAM HEMPY, farmer, P. O. Forest, is a son of Peter Hempy, whose father was born near Lutzenburg, Germany. Peter Hempy was born in the State of Maryland, where he, matured and married Mary Michael, of the same State. During the first decade of the present century, they settled in Fairfield County, Ohio, where they both died. He was a millwright by trade, but owned and lived on a farm. He furnished a substitute in the war of 1812 from Fairfield County, where William, the sixth of their thirteen children, was born April l5, 1823. William matured in his native county, where he received a common school education and when sixteen years old was enabled to teach. About this time, his father died, leaving him entirely alone in the circle of life. On June 15, 1851, he married Christina Trissler, and the same year purchased and settled on five acres of land in this township. By strict economy and industry, he and his wife have accumulated until they now own nearly 100 acres of good land. In 1863, when all building material was extremely high, his entire buildings were swept away by the devouring flames. Mr. Hempy has always been handy with tools, and has done considerable carpentering, which was convenient for him in many instances when starting in the dense wilderness of Hardin County. He has devoted some time to saw-milling, and for several years had a mill on his farm. He and wife have had eight children, seven of whom are now living. Mrs. Hempy is a sister of J. R. Trissler.

William married Christena Trissler on 15 Jun 1851 in Fairfield, Ohio. Christena was born in Aug 1831 in Pennsylvania; died in May. [Group Sheet]

According to the report "The Michael Family" written by James Parker and Mildred Michael Crewe, Andrew emigrated in 1757, bought part of Tasker's Chance, was a blacksmith, had 10 children; most south of Frederick (Re. Library of Congress)
NOTE: Andrew's will made 1796, probated March 3, 1800 (Liber GM p.366) Frederick County Courthouse
Andrew and Barbara owned 2 dolts (parcels) of land (part of Tasker's Chance) in Fredericktown. They held this for five years and then sold the parcel. On November 23, 1767, they had surveyed a tract of 340 acres under the name of "Cooley (Cooling) Springs", so called for the spring on the property. Andrew received a patent for the land on July 12, 1768. Some of this land remained in the Michael name until May 5, 1974, when it was sold after the death of its last occupant, Elmer Ezra Michael, after 206 consecutive years in the Michael family. "Cooling Springs" was part of an original land grant from King George of England to Lord Baltimore and his agent in America, Charles Carroll of Carrollton (a signer of the Declaration of Independence).
