*** his mother's side ...
Jacob Koppes and his brother Samuel removed from Pennsylvania to Ohio in the early years of 1800. They came with families by the slow and tedious means of travel of those pioneer days, heavy lumbering wagons through woodland trail, or more often through trackless forest.
Jacob took up his abode upon what was afterward known as the Joseph Beck farm, situated in the rich River Styx valley in Guilford Township, Medina County, 0, and Samuel made his first Ohio home on what was afterward known as the William Miller farm, located only about a mile from the Beck farm, and in the same township. The part of this farm where the buildings stood remained in the Koppes family for many years. This farm now belongs to the family of the late Noah N Yoder, who bought it of the John 0 Koppes estate about thirty years ago.
Now we shall trace the lineage of the above named families in order, or as nearly so as we can, giving little mere than the mere line of descent, though we should enjoy, and could, with profit, fill a large volume with an account of various members who have filled important places in their time and generation.
