    Notes:

    [Aaron Root Decendants 1-10-2002.FTW]

    The first grave made in Grafton was for Frederick, the oldest born of Aaron Root's second marriage, who died soon after the family settled in the township. In their affliction, they sent to Brunswick, Medina county, for Rev. Jacob Ward, a Methodist minister and former friend and neighbor in Pittsfield. The oldest son was sent for Mr. Ward and they made their way as fast as possible through the five-mile woods from Liverpool, but night coming on, they were obliged to tie their horses and with saddles for pillows, spent the cold, rainy November night in the woods.
