General Notes: Husband - Joshua Burchfield


He was a farmer and breeder of fine wooled sheep. In 1852 he walked to California with a party driving a herd of cattle. He spent five years there prospecting and mining and was fairly successful. He returned to Ohio and for five years devoted his time to clearing up the land of the homestead, which he soon afterward bought from the heirs.
