Noah STAATS - was born October 23, 1804, in what is now Wood county, West Virginia. He was a son of Elijah and Margaret (Atkier) Staats, long since deceased. In 1810, bringing their six-year old son with them, Elijah and Margaret (Atkier) Staats became residents in Jackson county, then a part of Virginia. Here the subject of this sketch has passed the larger part of his life, and in Grant district, where he engaged in farming for many years, he is spending the last days of his life. His marriage was consummated in Meigs county, Ohio, Harriet Bradfield becoming his wife there, on the 10th of May, 1832. She was a daughter of Zachariah and Mary (Wells) Bradfield, and was born in Hardy county, now in West Virginia, the date of her birth, April 1, 1809. For two years, 1863-5, Noah Staats filled the office of justice of the peace in his township. The children of Mr. and Mrs. Staats have the following record: Henrietta (Rardon), born March 13, 1833, and Mary A. E. (Morehouse), born
