NEEDELS, B. J., physician, Lithopolis, Ohio, born April 1, 1814, in Bloom township, Fairfield county, Ohio, son of George and Kizia (Jackson) Needels. His parents were both born in Delaware and came to Bloom township and settled on the farm now known as the Boving farm. They were among the early pioneers of this township. His father's family numbered fourteen children and they lived to see all married except one who died in infancy. Mr. Needels, the subject of this sketch was twice married; the first took place October 3, 1833 to Miss Catharine Ewing, who was born April 20, 1812, in this county, daughter of William and Mary (England) Ewing. Mrs. Needels died in Missouri in 1862. This union was blessed with five children, viz.: William E., Elizabeth J., George and Kizia, (twins), and Sarah A., all of whom are married and living in different States of the Union. His second marriage was to Nancy Bowen, of Morrow county, Ohio. In 1833 Mr. Needles went to Knox county, after remaining there two years he moved to Hancock county, where he remained eighteen years, and then went to Gentry county, Missouri, returning again to this township in 1862. Mr. Needles began the practice of medicine in 1843 and has continued it ever since, having at all times unusually good success. The Doctor, becoming old and somewhat infirm, has concluded to retire from his practice, except in very urgent cases where his services are badly needed.
