MEEKER BOTTENFIELD, (Prospect Township) farmer, was born near Waynesburg, Green County, Penn., August 23, 1818. His parents, John and Mary (Woodruff) Bottenfield, with their family, including the subject of this paragraph, moved to Knox County, Ohio, in 1830, where the father and mother both lived until their death. Meeker Bottenfield was married in Knox County, March 16, 1842, to Miss Bethiah Hubbel, born April 27, 1827, a daughter of John and Annis (McIntyre) Hubbell, formerly of Tioga County, N.

For two years after Mr. Bottenfield's marriage, he lived near Galena, Delaware Co., Ohio, where he leased land and cleared fifty acres for other parties, taking as pay fifty acres of unimproved land; the property is located east of Prospect Village, and is now owned by John Q. Roads. They lived here six years and in August 1852, bought the farm of 101 acres where they now reside; about twenty acres of this farm was cleared at that time; there are now seventy acres of the homestead in a fine state of cultivation. They lived there just twenty-eight years in a log house, and then built, at an expense of $1,500, the fine frame building in which they now reside. Mr. and Mrs. Bottenfield have had eight children-Mary Annis, born December 13, 1843, and died January 24, 1861; John H. born January 19, 1845, died September 28, 1875; Stephen J., born August 30, 1846: Carey J., February 20, 1849; Rozetta J., January 3, 1851; Helen Drusella, June 6, 1854; Emma H., June 23, 1857; William M., October 1, 1862.
