More about John Townsend:
From an article "Old One-Room Schools" written by Dick Tiernan, Staff writer for 'Senior Life" July 1995, Richmond,Wayne Co., Indiana:"  When Richmond decided to build the C.R. Richardson school they uncovered the old JOHN TOWNSEND cabin. Wise administrators made the decision to move the cabin to the grounds of the P.C. Garrison School just north of Boston (Wayne Co. Indiana). Following the location of the cabin and during the bicentennial (1776-1976), a teacher's group headed by Supt. John Egger and Bob Rehmel, a crew of volunteers decided to turn the cabin into a school. A smoke house, well pit and rail fence was added to the grounds. Today's children at Garrison school have the unique advantage of re-living history. Principal Tom Catlett says that every fall they have what is know as Cabin Days. A festival runs for five to eight days and each year a different theme is used. Indians, Pioneer Life and Americans All are some of the themes. Other elementary schools are free to use the cabin-school for field trips and day long visits. So the former Townsend two-story cabin is now serving as a school. John Townsend was a Revolutionary War veteran whose family came to Indiana in 1803." John Townsend, though raised Quaker, joined up with the Army during the Revolution. He later came back to the Society of Friends, and he and his wife Elvira refused the military pension due him, on grounds of conscience. Some of the Townsends - Quaker cousins and other relatives of my John Townsend - later assisted in the Underground Railroad. It is amazing to me how much of the history of America was formed by the Quakers, but you don't hear about it too often.
