General Notes: Husband - James S. Banning


He married and with his wife removed at once to Mount Vernon, Ohio, they making the journey through the wilderness on the backs of two ponies. The trip occupied eight days. There he, being a tanner by trade, established a tan-yard and conducted the business of tanning, together with merchandising, for several years, but eventually removed to Banning's Mills, a locality upon a large farm which he owned, and where most of his children were born, and all of them mainly reared.
