Name Timothy Wallace Birth 31 Jul 1793 New York, USA 
Gender Male Death 21 Nov 1876 Dansville, Steuben Co., New York, USA Notes - Timothy Wallace was born in Pittstown, Rensselaer County, New York. His family later moved west to Dansville, Steuben County, New York. Wallace spent very little time in Sheffield, Ohio. He was hired by General William Hart, the original proprietor of Township No. 7 of Range No. 17 of the Connecticut Western Reserve, “to commence a settlement” in in the township Hart had purchased. Hart intended to divide the township into lots for sale and Wallace was to have his choice of lots for serving as agent.
Wallace traveled to Ohio in 1812 and chose Lot 65, the same one Capt. Jabez Burrell selected for his homestead three years later. Wallace improved a few acres and built a small log house before abandoning the settlement for fear of Indians.
Census records show Timothy Wallace living in Franklin, Portage County, Ohio through 1840 with his wife Elizabeth. Between 1820 and 1840 his family grew from four to nine children. In 1850 Timothy and Elizabeth, and son David, had moved to join his family in Dansville. Father and son farmed side-by-side until Timothy’s death in 1876.
