from THE HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY
by R.S. Dills, 1881

Stephen Garinger, farmer, is the eighth of nine children, all of whom are living, married, and have families, always enjoyed good health, and were seldom, if ever, visited by physicians. He is the son of David Garinger, and was born April 17, 1844, on the homestead, where he was reared and educated. He farmed with his father till the spring of 1865, when he was married to Rebecca A. Borton, daughter of John Borton, a native of New Jersey, who removed to Clinton County, Ohio, and at present resides in Washington C.H. The union resulted in six children: Lizzie J., Kittie, Frank E., Artrella, Cary W., and Harley Dean.

Mr. Garinger is a Democrat, politically. He began farming on the place he now occupies, in 1859, with his father. The farm on which he located in 1865, consists of two hundred and sixty-seven acres, mostly improved. The buildings are located on a little knoll, making a beautiful country home. He raises about one hundred acres of wheat, and a like quantity of corn, which he ships to Baltimore, Waverly, and New York, per the Ohio Southern road. He has threshed wheat and clover by steam for twelve years, to the satisfaction of all who employ him. He purchased the first McCormick self-binder in the state, having seen it at the Chicago exposition, in 1875. He also purchases young stock, and fattens the same for the trade.
