Daniel Dunham & family apparently arrived in Washington Co
OH in 1789. However, there are indications that he/they
might have been there a year earlier.
Rufus Putnam and the first Marietta settlers from MA and RI
took the old road across southern PA to Pittsburg and then
came down the Ohio River. Persons fro CT who were going to
Ohio's Western Reserve used lakes and rivers to get to
Buffalo, NY. They eventually followed the shoreline of
Lake Erie to get to northern OH and Cleveland.
