6 HISTORY OF THE GEORGE BIDDULPH HOUSE The George Biddulph house at Butternut Ridge Road has been an important part of North Olmsted's history for 134 years. George Biddulph built the small house for his first wife, the former Almera Frances Kennedy, whom he had married on Christmas Eve in The couple moved into their brand new home six months later in June of It was situated on a 5.5 acre parcel of land on Lot 28, on the north side of Butternut Ridge Road. The 1874 Cuyahoga County Atlas shows the land as being owned by John Biddulph. George's father and mother, John and Christina Biddulph, lived close by on the south side of Butternut Ridge Road, on parts of three lots, 24, 26 and 27, comprising approximately 100 acres of farm land. John had purchased the land from William Collister on April 24, 1865, and moved his entire family to Olmstead Township, from Brooklyn, Ohio. In addition to his parents, George had an older brother William and three younger sisters, Louise, Caroline and Rose, respectively. William Biddulph would be the future owner of the R. K. Knight house on Porter Road, built around of 5
7 On September 27, 1880, George and Almera Biddulph became parents with the birth of their first child, a baby daughter. They named her Grace Esther. Sadly, Grace passed away five months later in February of In March of 1881, George and his father decided to trade residences. George moved onto the 100 acre farm on the south side of Butternut Ridge Road and assumed responsibility for its care. John and Christina moved into the house on the north side of Butternut Ridge Road. A few months later, in July 1881, John Biddulph attended the funeral of his father in Brooklyn, Ohio. The elder Biddulph was 78 years old when he died. George and Almera became parents for a second time on October 4, 1883, when their second daughter, Dora Gertrude was born at home, on the farm. Their third child, a son, Fred Kennedy Biddulph, was also born on the farm on January 19, According to family notes, during the time that John and Christina Biddulph lived in the house, John was constantly making improvements, adding stone walks and a handsome front fence in In 1884 John fell off the roof and was confined to bed with a severe spinal injury. He recovered, and in 1885 John and Christina traveled to Europe with their youngest daughter, Rose. George had a one story expansion added to the north side of the house in It was completed in December of that year. On New Year's Eve in 1890, John Biddulph passed away in Brooklyn, Ohio. He was buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery. It could be assumed that Christina continued to live in the house alone, after her husband's death. On May 1, 1895, John Biddulph's wife Christina, along with John Biddulph's other named heirs, deeded the 100 acre farm they had inherited, to George Biddulph, making him the sole owner of both the 100 acre farm and the house he had built in George Biddulph's beloved wife, Almera, died at her home on the farm on April 1, 1900, after a two year period of declining health. Quoting from her obituary, "Her entire life has been spent in this neighborhood, and a beautiful life it has been, diffusing a sweet and healthful influence wherever placed and leaving in death a void which nothing can fill. Her presence was valued at the Star Rebekah Lodge of Dover, in the church, and in every social function to which she was always most faithful, and for her wisdom and pleasing social qualities, which were rare indeed." Her funeral service was held at the home and she was buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery on April 4, George's mother, Christina, passed away not long after, on February 27, She was buried next to her husband John, in Butternut Ridge Cemetery. Information is lacking on who lived in the house, or the condition of the house, in the years following Christina's death. In May of 1901, George and Almera's second daughter, Dora Gertrude Biddulph, married Charles D. Stearns. 2 of 5
8 Three month's after his daughter's wedding, George married for a second time, on August 31, His wife was the former Stella M. Kennedy, the daughter of his first wife's brother, George Kennedy. They lived on the farm, as did young Fred Biddulph. Dora Gertrude Stearns passed away in She was just 25 years old. There is no mention of any children from her marriage, or the circumstances of her passing. She was buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery. With Dora's passing, Fred Biddulph became the sole heir to his father's estate. Five years later, on March 20, 1912, Fred Biddulph married the former Clara Standen. The next year, on April 21, 1913, for reasons unknown, George Biddulph, and new wife, Stella, deeded the 100 acre farm to Fred. Two years later, on May 28, 1915, also for reasons unknown, Fred deeded the exact same property back to his father. It cannot be said for certain where Fred and Clara Biddulph lived when first married. Obituary accounts say they lived on the 100 acre farm from the time of their marriage. It is not out of the question to suppose that they might have lived for a time in the house at Butternut Ridge Road. Fred and Clara became parents in 1913 with the birth of their first child, a daughter, named after her paternal grandmother, Almera. In 1914 their second child was born, a son George, named after his paternal grandfather. On March 5, 1918, George Biddulph's second wife, Stella, passed away. There are no details on the circumstances of her passing. Her funeral service was also held at the home on the farm, on March 7, She was buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery next to George's first wife, Almera. In a rather quick turn of events, George Biddulph was planning to marry for a third time, in the fall of 1918, just five short months after Stella's death. On August 29, 1918, in anticipation of their upcoming marriage, George signed a pre-marriage contract with Josephine Burford to provide suitable provision for her, in lieu of any ownership in his estate. He paid her $4, and agreed to deed to her, in trust, the 5.5 acres of land with the house, until such time that he would pay her an additional $6, Per their contract, the house was to revert to George in the case of her demise. The warranty deed was executed the same day as the contract. It appears that after their marriage, George and Josephine lived in the house at Butternut Ridge Road. Shockingly, just eight months later, on May 4, 1919, George Biddulph and his third wife Josephine were found dead in the house. George's brother, William Biddulph, arriving from the train station, along with two women who were friends of Josephine, discovered the bodies. The sensational story was told in a newspaper article at the time, which gave a detailed account of the event. A shotgun was found next to Josephine and an old fashioned pistol was found at the feet of George. Sheriffs Deputies determined from the evidence that George had first murdered Josephine and then taken his own life. 3 of 5
9 The motive, they said, "remained locked within the walls of the small cottage," the cottage that George had built, forty-two years before, in Evidence of the location of the deaths is found in the May 1919 article on the murdersuicide. The author quotes neighbor Joseph Minnich on not hearing any gunshots fired that day. The article states that Joseph J. (and wife Lillie M. Minnich) lived sixty feet away from the Biddulph "cottage." Additional evidence is found in a Fred and Clara Biddulph mortgage deed to North Olmsted Bank, dated 2/4/1925, which contains the Lot 28 property description, and a reference to the adjacent property owned by Joseph Minnich. The Minnich property is on the west side of the cottage on Butternut Ridge Road. Joseph and Lilly Minnich are buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery. George Biddulph was buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery next to his wives Almera and Stella. Fred Biddulph inherited the 100 acre farm, and the house, upon the passing of his father. Information on the disposition of the house has not been found. Perhaps it remained unoccupied for a period of time. Sometime after George Biddulph's death in 1919, Fred and Clara decided to build a dance hall on the farm. Construction was undertaken, and ultimately completed, on a 5,000 square foot hall. On May 19, 1923, Fred and Clara Biddulph paid $15.00 for the right to open the new pavilion.1the first dance was held on May 23, Later that same year a five hole golf course was added to the property. Fred and Clara became parents for the third time on July 22, 1924, with the birth of their second daughter, Alice Rose, on the farm. Rose, as she was called, later gave accounts of growing up in the dance hall, and living in the apartment above the hall, for most of her life. On February 4, 1925, Fred and Stella Biddulph mortgaged the house at Butternut Ridge Road, to the North Olmsted Bank Co., for $1, Perhaps this was done to help finance the Springvale Dance Hall and golf course. Fred and Stella lived their entire lives together on the 100 acre estate. They ran the dance hall and golf course. In 1935, their son George took over management of the golf course. In 1937 the course was expanded to nine holes, and later, in 1953, George oversaw the renovation and expansion of the course to eighteen holes. Fred Biddulph remained active in the operation of the course until He passed away in Mesa, Arizona on December 9, Clara Biddulph passed away four years and three months later, on March 25, She was buried next to her husband in Sunset Memorial Park. 4 of 5
10 In March of 1963, Fred and Clara's heirs, daughters, Rose and Almera, who had helped run the operations of the dance hall, and their brother George, were now the owners of the entire Biddulph estate, which included the house their grandfather had built. On February 8, 1965, Alice Rose Scheef became the sole owner of the house. George Biddulph, grandson, died in 1986 and is buried in Sunset Memorial Park. Almera Biddulph Reitz, granddaughter, died in 2000 and is buried in sunset Memorial Park. Information is scant on the history of the house and who may have lived there between the years 1963 and In the year, 2000, Alice Rose Sheef sold her grandfather's house to Michael Rach. Alice Rose Scheef passed away in The North Olmsted Foundation purchased the house in June of 5

14 HISTORY of OLMSTEAD TOWNSHIP and BUTTERNUT RIDGE NEIGHBORHOOD 1806 Aaron Olmstead, a wealthy sea captain, pays $30,000 for a vast tract of land in a part of the Connecticut Western Reserve that will eventually become North Olmsted, Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township. He died the same year and his attorneys began selling off the land he had purchased Original survey of the area is made by a man named Lacey working for The Connecticut Land Company James Geer settles in the southwest corner of what would eventually become Olmstead Township James Geer erects a home and becomes the first permanent resident of the future Olmstead Township Elijah Stearns, a veteran of the Revolutionary War, and his son David Johnson Stearns, born in 1793, come to Kingston (the future Olmstead Township) from Dover, Vermont, to select land for future settlement. Elijah had a large family of boys and wanted a large tract of land for their use. Elijah's father, Eliphalet, was a captain in the American forces during the war for independence. Elijah first served as his father's servant and was later promoted to the rank of lieutenant Elijah Stearns purchases 1002 acres of land at $2.00 per acre, from the trustees of the estate of Aaron Olmstead, who had been the proprietor of the township. The land was located on Butternut Ridge in the northwest part of the township. His son David was to have 150 acres. Elijah returned to Vermont Surveyor Ira Morgan lays out the line of Butternut Ridge Road Ira Morgan surveys Olmstead, Tract 6. He was instructed to lay out lots of 160 acres each. Lots located near Butternut Ridge Road were to be based on the road David Stearns and James Geer clear a two mile path along Butternut Ridge. The path permanently relocates the planned line of Butternut Ridge Road, without permission, and thus creates havoc with the sizes and layouts of several of the lots along the road David Burmel moves from Columbia to the northeast corner of Kingston to become the third resident of the township Amos Briggs settles on the west part of Butternut Ridge known as Robb farm Isaac Scales builds a house on the east end of Butternut Ridge Road David Johnson Stearns marries Polly Barnum. They go on to have eight children Major Samuel Hoadley settles near Isaac Scales The Major's daughter, Maria, marries John Adams, a newly arrived pioneer in the area. Emigration to the area increases rapidly. Seven Stearns brothers are among the new emigrants. Old Indian wigwams are still standing in the area and Indians regularly set animal traps Isaac Scales dies and is buried in his back yard. A large rock marks his grave. Charles Hyde Olmstead, son of Aaron Olmstead, reclaims the land Township 6, Range 15 is formed into a civil township by the name of Lenox On April 14 th, officers of Lenox Township are elected. Among them are Watrous Usher and David Stearns, who was elected town clerk Lenox Township is cut in half from the north to the south and the east and west halves are assigned to Cuyahoga and Lorain counties, respectively. 1 of 2
15 1827 Lenox Township halves are reunited in Cuyahoga County and Lenox Township municipal life begins again Three Lenox school districts are created Charles Olmstead offers to make the residents of Lenox Township a present of a 500 book library, if they will change the township name to Olmstead. The offer is accepted Trustees of the estate of Aaron Olmstead sell a 30 acre portion of Lot 28 to John Adams The first election in Olmstead Township is held Charles Olmstead takes over the sale of the remaining land from his father's estate. He eventually sells all the remaining land. It will take until 1865 to accomplish the task David J. Stearns is elected Olmstead Township trustee. He also serves as assessor. Politically, he is a Democrat Four Fitch brothers settle in Olmstead Township. Two years later, three more Fitch brothers move to Olmstead Charles Olmstead sells the remaining 54 acre portion of Lot 28 to Thomas May John Adams sells his 30 acre parcel of Lot 28 back to Charles Olmstead for a profit Butternut Ridge Cemetery is established when Charles Olmstead deeds a 0.35 acre parcel of Lot 28, to be used for the cemetery, to Olmstead Township trustees The first church is erected two miles north of Olmstead Falls, at town-house corners. It was a Union Church built by the Presbyterians, Methodists and Universalists. Olmstead Township rapidly assumes the outward garb of civilization. Log houses give way to frame structures Watrous Usher dies and leaves 189 acres of land to his sons, Anson and William Usher William Usher sells a 20 acre portion of Lot 28 to Orson Spencer for $ The Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati railroad is built through the southeast part of Olmstead Township, giving greater impetus to settlement of the area William Usher pays his brother Anson $1,500 and acquires full ownership of the remaining land inherited from his father. The Quit Claim deed includes 29 acres in Lot 26, 126 acres in Lot 27 and 34 acres in Lot Charles Olmsted sells 100 acres of Lot 24 to Alden Thompson for $ The Toledo, Norwalk and Cleveland railroad is opened for use, running almost exactly east and west through the village of Olmstead Falls Charles Stetson, the property owner of record at the time, sells his ownership of portions of Lots 26, 27 and 28 to William and Rebecca Collister, who will eventually sell the land to John Biddulph in Many residents of Olmstead Township take part in the Civil War. Several of the veterans are buried in Butternut Ridge Cemetery John Biddulph purchases a 20 acre portion of Lot 24, 80 acres of land on portions of Lots 26 and 27, and 5.5 acres on Lot 28. He then moves his family of seven, which includes wife Christina, sons William and George, and daughters Louise, Caroline and Rose, from Brooklyn, Ohio to Olmstead Township George Biddulph builds a new house on the 5.5 acre parcel of Lot 28, at Butternut Ridge Road, for his new bride Almera William Biddulph buys the Richard K. Knight home on Porter Road. The house is built of stone, probably from a nearby stone quarry. 2 of 2
