From Doris (Snyder) Beverage, Clarissa had her right arm crushed in a cider
mill when young. She was given up for dead by a physician from an adjoining
county. Capt. John McElwee amputated the arm with a razor and and joint saw.
She recovered fully and raised her children. Their old log house was located
on the same foundation as the present Arbogast house, which was purchased by

the Old Log Chucrch used to be, known as the Deer Creek Union Meeting House.
Adam owned many acres of land which was divided among his children. The home
place was handed down to Christopher, then to O. Glenn. The last tract of
