Q 1826, Jan. 7 Letter of considerable length to E. R. in Andover from Asaph Whittlesey in Tallmadge, Ohio. Acknowledges receiving a letter from E. R. in which E. R. explains that the death of his father has caused the transfer of the Ohio lots to the heirs and subsequently to him and his brother George. [see Deed No. 1, Oct. 17, 1825] Whittlesey attempts to answer a series of questions posed by E. R. The land is assessed at $400 and is about 5 - 8 miles from the Canal. Little immigration to the area at present, so little demand for land.
