[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 7, Ed. 1, Tree #1334]
Rebecca and Theron Landon lived two or three years in Salem, Ohio where Theron was a clerk in a shoe store. They later moved to the farm of Phillip Bowman. About the 10th of November, 1834, they started on a journey in a two horse covered wagon to find a new location farther west in Richland, now Ashland County, Ohio. A day or so after they began, their daughter Almira became ill. They were obliged to stop at Westfield, Medina, where Almira died on Nov. 14th. The family were detained at this place about four weeks, after which their journey was continued until they arrived at their new home near Nova, Ashland County, Ohio.
