From Hills of Highland [a source to be used with caution because of multiple errors], by Elsie Johnson Ayres, p. 297:
"Daniel Inskeep brought his family to Highland County in 1805 and settled on a farm about two miles west of the site of Hillsboro. He was a Methodist minister and supporter of the early churches of that denomination. In 1910, Rev. Inskeep started a shop north of the Denny House. He became the county's first saddle-tree maker. Born in 1773, Rev. Inskeep passed away Oct. 24, 1853. His wife, Rachel Inskeep, born in 1779, survived until July 17, 1861. She was a typical pioneer wife and mother. [Note: After calling Rachel Inskeep "typical," Mrs. Ayres then describes a very atypical and entepreneurial woman.] The hat manufacturies near the shop and home of the Inskeeps must have inspired the enterprising mother. She knew the rain and snow were hard on the men's expensive fur hats and the women's beautiful silk bonnets.
"She set about devising a cover or protection for them. She took a tissue-silk oilcloth, treated in flaxseed oil and with her ingenuity, fashioned a water-repellant head covering for both men and women. The loosely-fitted hat cover was held in place by a silk cord. Rachel Inskeep's hat and bonnet protectors were sold in Hillsboro and surrounding territories. She dd a thriving business in the cities, especially Chillicothe and Cincinnati. They also were sold in the East, in Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Washington City (now Washington, D.C.). After the father's death, there were two sons to carry on the business, but both died as young men."

From Highland Pioneer Sketches & Family Genealogies [a source to be used with caution because of multiple errors], by Elsie Johnson Ayres, p. 221:
"Rachel, sister of Joel Brown, Sr., married Rev. Daniel Inskeep. He was a Methodist minister, born in 1773, who survived until 1853. The Inskeeps settled on Ellicott Survey No. 2,480, about 1804. They were pioneers of many talents."
Same source, p. 245:
"Rev. Daniel Inseep cleared the land west of Hillsboro known for many yeas as the 'Old Clark Holliday farm.' Three Inskeep children, Franklin, Maria, and David, are buried on the farm, beside Jane McCollum, who died in 1813, at the age of eighteen, followed by her young husband in 1830."
