"Edward Scovill removed from Connecticut, probably to Mercer County, Pa., where he married. Later, he removed to Trumbull County, Ohio. In 1838, he went to DeKalb County, Indiana, where he bought one hundred and fifty acres of land, intending to settle on it. He returned to Ohio to make preparations for the removal and died within three months. He was a self-made man, getting his education by studying nights, using hickory bark for light. He became a surveyor. It is said that he served two terms in Congress. Some of his descendants live in Warren, Ohio, and some in Wisconsin."
